This always makes me think of highschool since it was the moisturizer I swore by back then! In hindsight, it didn't provide the kind of protection I really needed, namely sunscreen. It was a great first moisturizer; it was a revelation to moisturize prior to makeup application. But times (and collagen levels) have changed since the 90s! :)

I fell in love with this company 12 years ago when they came out with the iconic blue nail polish. My one complaint then was how long it took the polish to try. Hard Candy has corrected that issue so now you just paint on and enjoy!

This was a staple of my makeup bag for several years. I changed in favor of a less powdery finish, but this is great stuff. I used the light complexion combo, and it was great for shine control and giving my face a nice balanced look. Good price too.

These blotting tissues are an instant refresher for your face. They remove excess oil without removing all your carefully applied makeup, so all that is left is a shine-free you! They are usually bundled into packages of 3. I included them in bridesmaid gift bags for a friend's wedding...the girls were very pleased!

I received this as a sample from Sephora in the gold shade and it works great as a highlighter along my cheek bones (pale skin). I also use Benefit Moon Beam and the big difference between the two would be that MoonBeam has some pink undertones to it while Stila is a pure, subtle gold. Blends very well, one bottle will last a long time (it's been months and I'm still not finished with my little sample!)

I used the lightest shade and it blends effortlessly into my porcelain skin. I don't wear foundation very often and dont need to, especially with this product. A little goes a long way, one tube will typically last 8-10 months. My only complaint would be that the dispenser is a little tricky and if you press down too hard on it, it will "spew" concealer out at you! So be ginger when you dispense, ladies. :)

This gloss gives a beautiful shine, although the gloss itself is rather sticky. I discontinued buying this product because the skin around my lips would start to break out after a few days in a row wearing the gloss. I got tired of alternating between wearing it, then lots of acne medication, then wearing it again, etc etc etc

I got this as a sample and it does a good job holding hair in place without your hair looking stiff. It does have a strong scent, so I recommend trying it at a store before purchasing.

If you like a pink glow to your cheeks, you would be better off the Benefit PosieTint. O-Glow is high on the novelty scale, but low on delivering promised results. After a few hours, any "personalized" blush color has faded, so you're forced to re-apply. It's fun, but I suggest saving your $$ on this one, ladies.

This top coat dries super fast and really enhances the colors of whatever color polish is beneath. Gives your fingers & toes a very professional finishing shine.
