KLS Beauty Foundation Stick

Former model Kimora Lee Simmons is a very ambitious woman. After turning the Baby Phat clothing into a success. launching footwear and handbag lines, and branding herself with a book called “Fabulosity,” she’s entered the beauty field. Her foundation stick provides a range of colors for women with skin in the middle to dark ends of the shade scale. But there are two shades (Cookies & Cream and Pralines & Cream) for women with lighter, caramel colored skin.

I personally wouldn’t use this makeup because of the presence of Talc and Zinc Oxide. But the foundation stick also contains Isopropyl Palmitate, a very comedogenic ingredient. If you have normal skin that tends not to breakout, then try it. Otherwise it may be best to give this one a pass.
