Worth every penny....my lashes are long and separated and are completely clump free! I have also has no smudgung (except if the area gets moist or my eyes water, but that could be alleviated by introducing a waterproof formula Love the colorsa dn the brush is easier to work with than I thought it would be. ) Now when they come out with a waterproof formula, my quest will be complete.

Okay...I have searched high and low with some not so great results BUT I think I have found my fake bake love! L'Oreal Sublime Bronze ProPerfect Airbrush, Self-Tanning Mist is THE BEST spray on self tanner I have used EVER. As far as tan in can goes, I was able to spray this upside down with no issues, the nozzle did not clog AND I didn't get that ugly ooompa loompa color AT ALL. Now by the time I used this I already had a little color, so I am not sure that it would give anything like a deep tan BUT if you exfoliate and spray at arms length...you will get a nice realistic tan that would be a good "base" for going to the beach. Since this product does NOT contain sunscreen make sure you apply before going outside. Also, let yourself dry before putting anything white anywhere near your body! The mist is light so it won't take long. The best thing I can say about this is that the tan is "natural looking" no orange, not one bit. It goes on evenly (big plus) so you don't have to rub it in (no messy hands!).

L'Oreal Paris Ideal Skin Genesis Daily Treatment Serum Concentrate
Skin Genesis Serum Get's 5 stars from TheMakeupGirl
L'Oreal's latest inventions Skin Genesis Oil-Free Moisturizer - $25.99 & Skin Genesis Serum Concentrate - $19.99 are definitely receiving high marks from even the most toughest of critics. I have been using both of these for the past two weeks and for the most part, my skin feels extremely toned . What I noticed immediately was that both products were absorbed almost immediately by my skin, most facial products sit on top for a while before they gradually sink in. This was gone in about 20 seconds - HUGE plus. Also it smelled great, nothing like having something you can't stand right near your nose so chalk up another point. Now onto the science... Technological Innovation: Pro - Xylane + Hyaluronic Spheres L'Oreal Research has developed patented Pro - Xylaneâ„¢, a superior naturally - derived molecule so small it can penetrate skin's surface layers. Combined with Hyaluronic Spheres, this complex boosts cell activity layer by layer to strengthen skin. Pro - Xylaneâ„¢: A Unique Ingredient * 100% naturally - derived from an environmentally friendly process called "Green Chemistry" * Bio - assimilable, bio - degradable * Delivered in an airless pump to protect its purity. What does that mean?? It is definitley a breakthrough when it comes to innovation in skincare BUT if you are dry in any way shape or form I would use this sparingly. The serum lists alcohol as it's third ingredient and the moisturizer lists glycerine as it's fourth. Now this isn't a HUGE deal for me as I tend to be oilier in the summer so this is an excellent summertime regimen for me. For the price, these are definitely keepers.

If you haven't tried these yet, get over to the NARS counter right now...seriously. They start out creamy and dry to a nice powdery finish. This is all I wear in the summertime, you can use it on your eyes, nose, cheeks. Wherever you want to get a sun-kissed glow. Favorite shades are Cannes, Malibu and The Big O (a word which they won't let me post..that's weird!).

This is a nice alternative to silicone based primers, it feels like a moisturizer going on but it will keep your look in place all day.

The reason I like this is above all the consistency. I use a brush to apply (or my fingers), the shine is great and it's very long wearing. The stickiness is a bit of a downgrade but usually long lasting glosses are heavier/stickier so it's a trade off for me.

This is the most amazing smelling thing around. It makes a tan look amazing and perfect for summer. A few tips, wait until it's dry before you get dressed if you are putting it on your arms or legs as it will rub off while it's wet. Also, if it solidifies immerse the bottle in a basin of hot water and it will loosen right up again.
