BareMinerals Original Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 15

Good Basic Foundation

I have oily skin and found this product and have looked no further. It evens out my skin tone, my skin doesn't feel damp or wet as it does with liquid foundations, and it stays on. I often have to blot my face and with liquid foundations, it becomes splotchy and has to be touched up w/ powder. This one, not so. The oil is absorbed and I feel as if my make up is still there, giving me the coverage I want. It also is great value for your money and I do like that it is talc free.

Secret Clinical Strength Smooth Solid Deodorant

What a Find - a Product That Does What It Says

I moved from to climate that has hot dry summers. I tried doubling up on different deodarants, alternating days, and nothing worked. This product has been a life saver. I've tried similar ones that supposedly have the same product, but not the same results. It keeps me dry, smelling fresh, and what seemed like such a small amount, actually lasts. I can go 24 hours in 100 degree weather and not stink - I definitely feel confident with Secret Clinical Strength.

Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner

Oily Skin - Great Liner

I have oily skin, along with oily eyelids. It's been trial and error to keep anything on my eyelids from shadows to liners to even eye shadow bases. I began using Bobbi Brown Gel Liners when they first were introduced. I do suggest a good quality brush - I have deep set eyes and prefer Bobbi Brown's slanted eye liner brush. I do wet it, then dip it in the gel liner and apply. I've also dotted it on my lid, and when it's almost dry (I've learned to judge), I use the liner brush to make a nice smooth line. In humid weather, I top it off with one of Bobbi Brown's eye shadows and it gives me a look that lasts all day, and I don't wear a lot of makeup. One reason I like her line, is it feels and looks natural.
