It is not just because I carry this line in my spa that this is my favorite eyeliner. My other estheticians and I did intensive research on eyeliners, and hands-down this one was the best. If you are wearing the Genie eyeshadow, it's beautiful when you dab a little over the liner to make your eyes pop!

Up until the lip candy glaze, Christian Dior was my favorite. This glaze rivals Dior, and has longer staying power. I'm just waiting for them to come out with some more colors!

This lip polish wand DOES stay on. As with any long-lasting lip polish though, I highly recommend a conditioning balm on first as these long-lasting lipsticks or glosses can dry out your lips. The color selection is beautiful.

This is the one we carry in my day spa. After researching all the professional mineral makeup lines - this one was the best.

Before I was even an esthetician, I was constantly looking for a mascara that did not end up under my eyes - I also wear contact lenses. I was very impressed with Lancome Definicils - although pricey in my book. On a fluke, I tried the avon wash off. It is fabulous! It also comes in brown-black which is the color I use. I do use an eye makeup remover though, as I don't like to use soap in the eye area. This is by far the best mascara I have ever used. When Avon runs their sale, you can get two tubes for $8.00 - can't beat that - and you can afford to throw away more often instead of keeping it past it's prime just because you paid alot for it. I still try others, but nothing gives you the bang for the buck like this one.

This product does not produce the results it touts. The Redken All Soft Heavy Cream is fabulous for damaged hair - especially when applied to the ends. In my book, Biolsilk offers a better shine - although you have to make sure you only use a couple of drops and rub in your hands before applying. Overdue any "shine" product and the results will be bad....more is not better!

The new AgeSmart lip renewal complex was in research and development for four years. The result is a lip complex that LASTS. You only apply in the a.m. and p.m. It is not be used as a regular lip balm as it exfoliates and moisturizes at the same time. I use it in the morning and then use my lipgloss over it. The true test has been the cold spell we've had, and this new complex keeps lips perfectly exfoliated and moisturized. Love it.

This is my favorite masque to use on clients with aging, pre-mature aging, or very dehydrated skin. It's loaded with vitamins and antioxidants. I can see and feel an immediate improvement on both my clients and myself from this treatment.

As an esthetician with sensitive skin myself, this is the best exfoliant I have found. However, I do not use it daily since Dermalogica came out with the new AGESmart line. I alternate one day with the daily microfoliant, and the other with the AGESmart Skin Resurfacing cleanser. It contains Lactic Acid which is another great exfoliator. It's effectiveness is intensified with steam, so I put it on in the shower in the morning and rinse off last. It has a slight tingling to it, but I have seen the best results on my own skin using this combination.
