  • Revlon Tourmaline Ionic Total Styler Dryer

    I used this dryer for a couple years and it's not bad for a cheap dryer. It does get very hot, and it's loud, but it straightens well and dries hair quickly. It's also lightweight, which I loved.

  • Bremenn Research Labs Lumedia Facial Brightener

    I received a very large deluxe sample of this from Sephora recently and have been using it every other night for the past few weeks. I'm still a little unsure of what exactly this product is supposed to do. I have not seen any remarkable results. The product itself does not appear to have any ingredients (that I have ever heard of, at least) to actually lighten sun spots, and I have not seen mine lighten at all with the use of this product. The label claims to give you the appearance of baby-like skin, but I don't really think mine appears more baby-like or any different than it was a few weeks ago. I still have the uneven pigment and redness in areas that I had before. I would be curious to see if more visible results appear after 3-6 months of use, but for the price of it, I'm not sure that I'll be dying to go out and purchase this product after my sample runs out. I've had more luck using products with proven lightening ingredients like hydroquinone and kojic acid, so I think that's your best best if you want something to even out and correct skin tone and pigmentation.

  • Arbonne NutriMinC RE9 Renewing Gelee Creme

    I found this cleanser to be very gentle and nourishing. It is a gel-cream consistency and smells yummy, like a creamsicle! You only need a small amount, which is good because it is quite pricey (why I gave it an 8). It foamed up and cleansed my face thoroughly but did not leave it feeling tight and dry, just totally clean and refreshed. Works great with the Clarisonic Skin Brush too. I would highly recommend this for normal and dry skin types.

  • Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Lip Protectant Stick

    LOve this. Great under lipstick, moisturizes well, and it has SPF.

  • Maybelline New York Define-a-Lash Lengthening Washable Mascara

    Pretty good, but you have to comb out the clumps after you put it on. The formula is not as thin as the beauty editor review says it is. I found that it does lenghten pretty well. The wand is flimsy, which is a little disconcerting.

  • Kiehl's Superbly Efficient Anti-Perspirant and Deodorant

    I was skeptical at first because of the natural ingredients, but now I am hooked! I first put it to the test during a cross-country move through the hot southern states during the middle of summer, and it really held up. It keeps me dry, and odor-free, and it absorbs well so it doesn't rub off on your clothing. I also love that it doesn't have an annoying scent like so many other deoderants on the market today. Worth the $11 price tag.

  • Philosophy Hope in a Jar

    Philosophy Hope in a Jar

    My Beauty Mainstay

    I've been using Hope in a Jar for years, and I continue to be loyal to it. It is my go-to moisturizer - I never get tired of it. And I am not typically this loyal to products- as soon as something better comes along, I'm gone! I have combination skin and still get hormonal breakouts (in my 30's) and it works very well for me - doesn't add oil, moisturizes and smooths well, and give me a glow. I also mix the Philosophy vitamin C powder with it from time to time. Destined to be a classic.

  • Stila #1 Blush Brush

    Stila #1 Blush Brush

    Disappointing

    I bought a Stila blush brush a few years ago because I have always been impressed with the quality of their makeup and was confident that the brushes would be good quality as well. While the brush worked well, I was disappointed to find that after a couple years, the handle was cracking and the paint chiiping off to the bare wood underneath, and the bristles were breaking off. I do take very good care of my makeup brushes - I shampoo them and lie them flat to dry every other week - so this should not have happened since I was taking good care of it. I would recommend Bobbi Brown brushes instead, if you are looking for top-quality brushes. I have had some (used daily) for 7 (!) years now, and they show no signs of giving out!

  • Chanel Le Vernis Nail Colour

    Chanel Le Vernis Nail Colour

    Expensive, but good

    I think you are paying mostly for the brand name, but that being said, the colors are always fantastic and it stays on really well. I wouldn't say that it stays on better than brands such as Essie, but it's about the same. The "Vamp" color is one of my all-time favorites in the winter time. I think I've heard that many polishes are made by only a few companies. If you can't afford it, you most likely can find a similar shade within a cheaper brand such as OPI or Essie.

  • Jo Malone Grapefruit Cologne

    Jo Malone Grapefruit Cologne

    Great for everyday

    Fragrance is always a very personal thing, but if you love grapefruit or citrusy scents, this cologne is wonderful. I took a tester home and was immediately hooked and had to go back and buy a bottle- it's just a very clean, frefreshing, and invigorating scent, but also very chic.
