Beauty Product Round Table: jane nearly foundation
By metropolitanmama | February 28, 2008
You’ve probably seen jane cosmetics products at Target, Walgreens, or your nearest grocery store. According to the jane website, jane “represents every woman” and jane “stands for sophistication and beauty.” Best of all, jane is affordable and widely available across the U.S.
jane recently sent me their nearly foundation tinted moisturizer to review. My sister Kathryn, an aspiring cosmetologist and a classic redhead beauty, first clued me in on the product. She says she wears it on occasion when she wants “something light” on her face.
Unfortunately, I requested “Medium” and then discovered that I really should have requested “Fair” because the moisturizer immediately “tanned” me in a much too noticeable way. 
As such, I can only say that the moisturizer is affordable and is packed with SPF 30 (one of the ultimate age deterrents). At around $4.99 a tube, it definitely fits in a mama’s budget.
Today’s review is actually a “round table discussion.” I’m going to open the floor to you, the Internets (as Jo-Lynne from Chic Critique would say). Do you like jane products? If so, which ones?
If you’d like to try jane cosmetics, take a walk down any beauty aisle at a drug store in your neighborhood or you can find a store near you using the search tool on the jane website.
WIN IT! One mama will win a 1.5 FL OZ tube of jane nearly foundation (Shade: Medium - It’s new and unused!). To enter, simply leave a comment and your e-mail address on this post prior to Saturday, March 1, at midnight. The winner will be announced and contacted on Sunday, March 2. * Winner must provide a U.S. mailing address.
* UPDATE * The winner is #91 jennem. Congratulations!
