Physicians Formula Sensitivity & Redness Redness Relief Moisturizer Formula Rx311
GoGood for Removing Face Redness
I received this as a perk during the month of beauty. The moisturizer is green, which we all know counteracts redness. It actually does reduce the appearance of redness. A little goes a long way. The moisturizer is not greasy, which is great during the extreme heat of summer (where I live.) It leaves a nice silky feeling on my face. I was surprised at the quality of this product since I have never used this brand before. I recommend this for anyone who wants a non-greasy moisturizer as well as removing redness, especially for those of you with facial redness.

I received this as a perk for the month of beauty. It comes with a built in brush that slides open. Very efficient. When I first used the powder, the product felt wet, and I thought the brush was wet, but it wasn't. This a very cooling powder as a result. I can't help but think this is a good feature because it adds moisture. It imparts a matte finish; so there is no shine. I put it on over my foundation, and it gave my skin a nice even appearance. I apply a little of the powder to the brush and tap it on my face. I found that it lightens and slightly fills in wrinkles. It is very light, so I don't feel like I have a lot of product on my face. At first I had to get used to the "wet" feeling, but I adapted to it quickly. I have used Bare Minerals, and this is far superior to that brand. I also tried Too Faced Primed and Poreless...don't waste your money on that one...it does absolutely nothing! I recommend this Revlon finishing powder.

Bath & Body Works Aromatherapy Foot Soak Stress Relief - Tranquil Mint
This Product Really Soothes Your Feet
I wear platform shoes, and sometimes they hurt after a long day. So, I get out my trusty foot spa, and use this stress relief foot soak. This really helps soothes my hurting feet. The pain actually does give relief. I soak for about 15-20 minutes, and my feet feel really soothed and soft. I then follow this with the peppermint cream. My feet feel completely pain free, as well as my mood. I highly recommend this.

I like to do my own pedicure with a pedicure spa. I never trim my cuticles for fear of infection. Instead, after soaking my feet and using all the various implements to smooth callouses, I apply this oil to dry cuticles, not when my feet are wet. Because it is a pen, it is really easy to apply. Some cuticles salves are greasy and don't absorb well. Even though this is an oil, it does not leave a greasy mess on your cuticles. Instead, it absorbs and really moisturizes. This is particularly great for sandal season. I also apply it every day to ensure soft and healthy cuticles. I highly recommend this.

Because this body cream is peppermint, it is invigorating. Also, because it is a cream, it is thicker than a lotion, and therefore provides more moisture. I really like to use it on my feet after doing my spa procedure. This cream is particularly good for aching feet after wearing platform shoes for a day. The fragrance really lasts, too. Whenever I apply it to my entire body, my husband always comments on how good I smell. This is a very high quality product, and I highly recommend it.

This product did absolutely NOTHING for my skin. There was no change whatsoever after 30 days. I don't know why I keep trying Olay products. I want to like them because of the hype, but they simply do not work for me. I have a few dark spots on normal skin, and I did not see any removal of discoloration. Don't waste your money.

I never thought I would be a Britney Spears product fan, but I have to say I have many of her products, and they are all high quality. The is the best bath and shower body wash. It does lather up; moreso than others, even L'Occitane. It is reasonably priced, and a little goes a long way. I highly recommend this.

I received 2 of these for my perks for the month of beauty. Each lipstick has a dark half and a light half. I like the rose 2 in 1, and find that I am using the dark half, and not the light half since it does not give much color. The dark half, however is great. It is not waxy, produces good color, and it lasts. It goes with any color, including orange! The other is 2 shades of plum; again, one half dark and the other half light. In this case, I like the light better than the dark. I will probably use the dark in fall and winter. It's too dark for summer. I am very pleased with these lipsticks, and I highly recommend them.

I received this as a perk from the month of beauty roll out. I use it in the evening. It has good absorption properties. It is not greasy at all. Since I have been using it for only 5 days now, the jury is still out regarding its efficacy. It feels good, and I hope it makes a difference in the appearance of my skin. I recommend this product due to the absorption properties.

I received this as one of my perks for the special month of scoring extra points. The concept is great...foundation and serum combined. I was excited to use it, but it sat on my face and left a terrible feeling of greasiness, and my face felt like I had too much make up on even though I used a small bit of product. It does not look good...does not create a flawless look. I simply could not stand the way it felt on my face. I tried it for several days, and ended up using blotting papers to absorb the grease it created. This is an inferior product, and I do not recommend it.
