This stuff really does work the best! I have very oily eye lids, and it's summer, and the shadow stayed put all day. As a point of reference, I used Origins Underwear for Eyelids and it did NOT keep the shadow from creasing. It helped a bit, but NOTHING like Urban Decay's primer. My only complaint is that - as you would expect for a good primer - it makes the eye shadow a bit harder to blend. It will take me a bit of practice to get used to that. I can't believe this product exists... when I was a teenager and first started wearing eye shadow, I wish I'd had this... we live in an age of products that actually work!

This hand cream is rich and moisturizing, but not greasy and it soaks in almost instantly. It has a light citrus scent. Lasted through one hand washing but not two. I haven't tried this through the winter yet, so we'll see if I still think it's the best hand cream ever in the spring. It's quite luxurious and it's wonderful to use a cream that isn't greasy. Also, it just takes a tiny dab of the stuff so it goes far! This is one product I treat myself to and am glad to pay the price. I realize it's expensive for some but - hey, it's far from being the most expensive hand cream around!

I needed a powder brush stat, and I was at a Dillards checking out the Lancome counter, so I bought theirs. Nice brush, good shape, not too stiff. However, the bristles are a bit poky on my sensitive skin. I assume these bristles must not be a natural fiber, although I'm not 100% sure. Does a good job of applying a light covering of mineral foundation... but I will probably switch to a less poky brush as soon as I can. Too bad, this was rather expensive.

I love this body wash. Gotta be honest, even if it didn't moisturize at all I would probably still use it every day because it smells WONDERFUL! However, as fortunate has it, Caress did add some very nice moisturizers. If your skin is very dry, you will need additional moisturizer. I have sensitive skin and this hasn't bothered it at all, but your mileage may vary. Did I mention the wonderful smell? It's a wonderful, clean, soft scent and I can still smell it during the day (rare for a body wash) on my skin.

I have only used this once, so take this review for what it's worth. I wanted to clarify about this product - it's made to be worn alone or with makeup, either way. If you apply it lightly and blend well, your skin doesn't have a green tint (at least mine didn't; your mileage may vary. My cheeks are pretty red though, that may make a difference). This glides on very nicely and is very light - good for oily or combination skin. If you have dry skin or need a lot of moisture, and you want to use this product, applying another moisturizer underneath might be the call. This did visibly reduce my redness. Don't know about the long-term effect. I can see using this every day, even on weekends when I don't feel like wearing foundation. It tones down the red as well as my foundation mineral powder does.

This seems like a nice foundation but I have pale skin and there aren't that many shade options with this foundation (at least as of now). The sales lady tried to match my tone and I went ahead and got some of this, because I thought maybe she just put on too much (they always do that in the department store). However I tried putting it on really lightly when I got home, and the shade is just much too dark for my skin. This does seem like a nice foundation but not good if you have very fair skin or a hard to match skin tone. I went to the Prescriptives counter instead and they spent a lot of time matching my tone and I'm really happy with what I got there instead.

Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Talc-Free Mineral Loose Powder
Love this powder for my rosacea and oily skin
I use this powder as my daily foundation and I love it... I believe I use the shade "Creamy Natural". I use a Lancome powder brush to put it on and if I need a bit more coverage I use the Bare Escentuals kabuki brush to dust a bit more onto my t-zone. This powder does a great job of toning down the red in my face, while still being light and not makeup-y looking. I've used other powder foundations (i.e. Bare Escentuals) and I like the shades better with this brand (I have very fair skin). Also, since it's a powder/mineral foundation, it helps to control the oil on my face... between this product and Clinique's instant perfector pore minimizer, I rarely have to apply any powder touchups during the day! (that is really saying something for us oily skin gals) I highly recommend this powder.
