I love High Beam. I've tried it and Moon Beam, and like the High Beam better because of my pale skin and reddish skin tone. It is one of those products that you only have to use a little of to make a big difference. I use a dot in the corner of each eye, and two to three dots blended onto the cheekbones.

I have found that the zeno is pretty effective on red bumps, but not on the pustules, so I think it really depends on the type of acne that you have. Also, since you are supposed to use it as soon as you notice you are breaking out, this product works better for those people that have some idea when they are going to break out, rather than those that are often surprised by blemishes.

This powder is fantastic. Although it is shockingly white in the jar, it is completely translucent on the face. It is super fine and leaves skin very even. Some how it manages to give your skin a soft-focus look, making little blemishes and issues disappear.

I use a real sunscreen in the morning because my dermatologist says that these type of products typically are not applied heavy enough to give the listed SPF. However, during the day, I find that this is a terrific way to prevent shine and get in a little more sun protection.

I purchased this gel at the suggestion of someone at Sephora. I found that it was critical to wait a few minutes after washing my face or else it sort of "peels" off. All in all, it seems to work best when I am not wearing makeup. With makeup on, the amount of time it lasts doesn't seem to be nearly as long. So, I use a primer with makeup. I probably will not purchase this again, simply because the primer works well without makeup as well.

I purchased this at Sephora, and used it for a few months. I really didn't think that it was anything special. Sure, it is non-greasy, which is a huge plus, but I honestly couldn't tell you the difference between it and a $10 tube of Neutrogena sunscreen. They have a very similar feel on the face.

I really like this product because it is one of the few glycolic products that does not seem to make my skin super sensitive. It is fabulous for the pores, and makes my skin seems brighter as well. Certainly there are cheaper glycolic options, but the product lasts for quite a while, and works wonderfully.

I may stray from this cleanser for a while, especially because I am a sucker for high priced products. However, I always return to this after a month or so because no other product makes my skin feel like it is extremely clean, but not stripped of moisture. Plus, it seems to really help even my skin tone.

I purchased this product when it first came out because I was hoping it would remove makeup better than normal cleansing methods. The pads that it come with have a lot more fragrance than I am used to from neutrogena products, and they don't foam as much as I would like. However, the main problem that I had with the product was that it is impossible to use on anything but the largest parts of your face (forehead, cheeks, chin). If you try to use it above your lip, it is difficult not to be scrubbing your top lip at the same time. Also, you cannot do the sides of your nose, and anywhere near your eyes. All in all, I didn't feel that it did any better than I could on my own, and I had to spend a greater time using it to get my skin clean. As a side note though, you can use the rejuvenator pads and use them with this device pretty well.

I've used this product pretty much every time I've blow dryed my hair for the past year. I find it is good for everyday use, but if you have super fine hair or are looking to get that Eva Mendes bed-head look, you will need something stronger. It smells fine and doesn't leave the hair crunchy. I find that I have to be careful with how much product the pump dispenses, because it sometimes puts out too much for my hair. Also, I find that this product works best when I apply it very shortly after stepping out of the shower.
