Dolce & Gabanna's "Desire" is a fiercely feminine and seductive. I fell in love at first scent and so did my husband, and so I purchased it. I can't count the compliments I get! The key notes are mandarin, lychee, bergamot, lily, tuberose, jasmine, plum nectar, caramel, sandalwood, musk, and labdanum. It is opulent, luxurious, bewitching . . .

Smells delightful, lathers very well, and keeps my hair tangle-free and soft. Works best in tandem with the conditioner for soft, shiny, manageable hair.

This is a basic toothpaste, but it doesn't give me the super-clean feeling the two aforementioned brands do. My dentists have always preferred the cavity-fighting protection of Colgate.

I learned in modeling school only to use a liquid roll-on antiperspirant. I rely on Certain Dri and switch it off with Mitchum periodically--no problems. Once I bought Clinique's antiperspirant for some reason and it really worked well. It takes a bit for it to dry, but it keeps me as fresh and dry as Certain Dri and Mitchum. I highly recommend it!

There are few concealers I haven't tried; this has substance but is sheer enough to cover circles under my eyes without looking artificial or cakey. It also works well to disguise blemishes and discolorations.

Application can be a bit tricky. This blush tends to fade somewhat, but I have used it long enough to enjoy touch-ups. The shades are worth the practicing in applying, from luscious "Pink Frosting" to "Rose Petal" and "Candy Coral."

Diane Young's "C Circles Vanish" has a texture which is hard to describe--it contains silicone and is so silky that you actually have to feel it to believe it. Circles vanish immediately with no artificial look. In fact, Diane Young uses light-diffusing properties to enhance your eyes and distract away from any wrinkles you may have. IT IS INCREDIBLE!

In modeling school and even up to only a few years ago, I only used natural-hair brushes for any of my makeup, from eye makeup to foundation to blush. ELF's amazing "Ten-Piece Studio Brush Collection" changed my mind. The small eye brushes make it easy for me to apply, blend, contour, and line, The angled foundation is very helpful with liquid or powder foundation; the blush brush allows me to accentuate my cheekbone. You can't possibly go wrong with this kit--the brushes are plush, dense, soft, and fluffy, an incredible bargain for the money.

The way the palette is set up is reminiscent of the old Hard Candy compacts I absolutely LOVED. This is not as pigmented, but it can be used for multiple looks, from office to dinner to dancing at a club. The shadow is smooth, rich, and blends and wears well.

The tin is oversized to allow you to pick up the color easily. The beautiful shades glides on flawlessly in part because of the silica, aloe vera, and Vitamin E in the formula. It's definitely a great, gorgeous buy for the money.
