With bikini zone gel I can shave my bikini line everyday and never have to worry about bumps! The best part is that it doesn't sting even after you do a close shave. I have been using it for three years and wouldn't consider spending money on a wax ever again - I can get just as smooth using this product after I shave without the pain, money, and annoyance of growing out my hair for weeks!

I thought that innovative makeup was supposed to make a woman's job easier, not more complicated! Even though only one extra coat of mascara is required, that coat must dry before the application of the second. And even two or three extra minutes matters when you're trying to get to work in the morning. Even if I only put one coat of the actual mascara on, it looks clumpy and I usually have to use an eyelash brush which ruins the volume that the mascara applicator is supposed to give my lashes. This is around $13, about twice as much as other drugstore mascaras, and not worth it. I sometimes use the base coat to put under other mascaras, like Maybelline Great Lash- but I would stick with a cheaper drugstore mascara or go all out and buy a $20 mascara at a department store.

These eye makeup remover pads aren't necessary if you buy all purpose cleansing or exfoliating wipes like neutrogena and garnier make. These seem to dry out too quickly and become less effective as you get to the bottom of the stack. For about $5 each, I'd stick with the other all purpose makeup removing wipes which seem to stay moisturized for longer and come with more cleansing power.

This is the ideal light-weight every day foundation. You can apply it with a foundation brush easily to get a smooth and truly radiant look. The greatest part is how easily blendable this foundation is; if the shade is a little lighter than you need, just add a dollop of bronzer to the jar and mix- or simply use a makeup spatula to get the right amount and mix into a bronzer in your hand. It covers up dark spots and even fills in post-acne scars without looking too caked on. It is perfect for the day time and going out on the town. I'd recommend this over any other of the Advanced Radiance foundation products, even though I like those as well. For about $10, this product is super- it feels just like the expensive Dior foundation that sells for $45.

HIP "Enticing" red lip gloss (as pictured) looks the same on my lips as it does on models' in magazines. In terms of shine quality and richness of color, it does get an A+. The downside is that it is so intense that if it fades in any spot it is very noticeable. You can't eat, smoke a cig, drink pop, etc. without having to re-apply it. It also gets all over my boyfriend's face when I kiss him and it is hard to wipe off. Overall, a good buy for about $8, but be cautious when you wear this very intense shade.
