GoSMILE Fresh Mint Touch Up

Try Crest white strips instead

I have pretty white teeth and I just like to use something as a boost every now and then. I used this and the toothpaste until I ran out. I never noticed that my teeth looked whiter. However, if you have sensitive teeth, I think this would be a great product for you-- not much tingling or discomfort.

Benefit Boi-ing Industrial Strength Concealer

bags be gone

I've been using this for over three years and recommend this to EVERYONE I can. It is really that great of a concealor.

Boots Expert Sensitive Gentle Eye Make-up Remover

very oily

I can't speak to the pads, but the liquid version is very oily. I bought it at Target because it was such a good price. I need to wash my face again after I use it to remove all the oil left on my eyes.

Clinique All About Eyes Rich

soothes my eyes

I've been using eyecreams for about two years. Previously, I've tried another Clinique version but I like this one a lot better. Instantly soothes and I don't feel greasy eyes.

Bath & Body Works Signature Collection Eau de Toilette Magnolia Blossom

light scent perfect for summer

I purchased this scent in the winter at the semi-annual sale. I didn't think that I would grow to love it -- I sometimes get tired of lotions/fragrances very easily. I was suprised at how flower-like it smelled without smelling like I walked out of a garden. If you like a little bit of gardenia, this is the way to go -- not too flowery but light enough it won't be "heavy" this summer.

Cosmedicine Healthy Cleanse for Oily Skin Clarifying Cleanser and Toner in One

Holy crap it does work!

Initially the price tag scared me away. I thought, "really, $35 for face cleanser, no thank you." But, I took the girl at Sephora up on her offer, and tried the $10 bottle of it. It might be the best kept secret. I'm not kidding. Apply with wet hands on a dry face and it works miracles. Even the blackest mascara and eyeliner came off with a few pumps of this. I typically use a face cleanser then an eye make-up remover and sometimes all of it isn't removed. I'm almost all of it now and will be buying another bottle soon.

Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture Broad Spectrum SPF 15

Fantastic lotion

I've previously always used Clinique's Dramatically different moisturizer. I made myself pick between a better bronzer or face lotion one summer, and I was so satisfied with this product, I never switched back. Plus, I think either Lucky or Allure just rated this as a great, affordable face lotion and I have to agree.

Nars Blush

Allure knows it.

Looks great on every skin color -- adds a touch of peachish shimmer. I love it.

Aveda Brilliant Universal Styling Creme

Best finishing creme

Right before you flat iron, smooth a dime-sized amount evenly over your hair. It's a great way to protect your hair from the flat iron, plus adds a great finish. Then use some control paste for the finish.

Nars Bronzing Powder

Best Bronzer

For the past two years, this has been my only bronzer of choice --thanks from a recommendation at Sephora. It has just the right amount of shimmer, so my face doesn't look like a disco ball like some M.A.C. products. One thing of Laguna will last me an entire year.
