  • Jane Iredale Glow Time Full Coverage Mineral BB Cream

    I tried a sample of this in BB3 which was a pretty good match for my light-med. skin tone. It is very expensive. It made my skin itchy. It did provide almost full coverage, but I found it thick, chalky looking and difficult to blend. It creases It did even out my skin tone and cover redness and did a decent job with my dark circles. I also liked the spf and antioxidants. It had a radiant, full cover finish. It also has staying power. I have to say it was fine, but I would not personally purchase this product, especially for the price. It feels very heavy and foundation like. Not horrible, just not for me. It also made my combination skin feel very dry and it settled in and emphasized the tiny wrinkles around my eyes. I would expect a bb cream to look and feel lighter.

  • Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream SPF 35

    I tried a sample in Light. It matched my skin tone perfectly. There is a range of shades. It has ingredients that benefit your skin, as well as effective sunscreen. It has a natural matte finish that evens out skin tone and does not make your face look shiny or feel greasy or heavy like others do. It is fairly priced and the best part is that they do not test on animals. It is fragrance free and did not irritate my super sensitive skin. I really like it!

  • Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer

    This product worked well on my sensitive, combination skin--no irritTion or breakouts. It blended well with my skin tone and evened my complexion a bit, pretty much the sheer coverage I expected from a tinted moistiurzer. I like the spf 20. I like the skin enhancing ingredients I it. The drawbacks are the price and I did not like that emu oil was included in the inactive ingredients--they could have easilily replaced it with something cruelty free. You will not be disappointed with this product, however you can find a less expensive alternative with similar benefits.

  • H2O+ Sea Salt Body Wash
    5.0

    H2O+ Sea Salt Body Wash

    Invigorating, great fragrance, not for sensitive skin.

    This has a great refreshing fragrance and is tingly and invigorating, but whatever ingredients do this also irritate my skin so I cannot use it often on my sensitive skin and would probably not use is regularly on any skin. It is nice once in awhile. It is not expensive, but not cheap either for really an average body wash with a great fragrance and some issues.

  • CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser

    CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser

    Perfect for sensitive skin

    This is an excellent cleanser for dry, sensitive skin. It cleans and rinses thoroughly and is fragrance-free (no noticable scent either). It makes the skin feel clean but not tight. It is reasonably priced. It could contain some antioxidants and do a better job at removing makeup, but again a great choice for sensitive, irritated, or allergy prone skin.

  • Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer

    I really liked this foundation/ concealer immensely because it is a time saver and imparts a flawless finish. It can be used all over or just where you need it. You dot it in your problem areas and do a smal swipe in each area of your face for all over coverage. It is full coverage and does a superb job on dark circles, redness, dark spots, etc. since it is a dimensional matte finish, it does perfect without emphasizing pores or other textural issues. I have sensitive, combo skin, Words of caution--DO exfoliate and moisrturize before using or dry patches will show up. Also, you definitely want to try out a few shades at the makeup counter, let it dry and look at it in different lighting, especially natural light to insure a good match. A mismatch will be noticeable with this formula. A little goes a very long way--use very sparingly and blend. Fingers and especially the blenders that are popular now work well. It does blend easily. It has a large a range of colors. It is fragrance free non irritating and comfortable. It has a large doe foot lip gloss like applicator. It is hard to get the last bit out as you use up the product It is reasonably priced. Unfortunately, Clinique still tests on animals.

  • Sonia Kashuk Shine Luxe Sheer Lip Color
    10.0

    Sonia Kashuk Shine Luxe Sheer Lip Color

    Does NOT bleed or creep

    Sonia Kashuk's Shine Luxe SheerLip Color is outstanding! If you like sheer, but pigmented, glossy lipsticks or lip glosses, you will love this! It is especially great for those of up with fine lines around our lips because even though this lipstick is moisturizing and glossy, it will not bleed or creep. It lasts pretty long for this type of lip product. I originally got it in pink lu-t, which is a nude , blushing pink--very natural looking, will work on probably all skin tones. I loved it so much, I also bought th plum which is a purple berry. It is quite pigmented and wears beautifully down a stain. The lipsticks are pigmented, but translucent enough to let your natural lip color show through, which makes them pretty universally flattering. Idid not detect any fragrance or flavor. It did not irritate my lips at all and felt really moisturizing and comfortable. It is pretty inexpensive. My favorite of the two I've tried is the pink l-st. These are really awesome. I highly recommend them.

  • NYX Matte Lipstick
    9.0

    NYX Matte Lipstick

    Great matte lipstick

    There is a lot to like about this lipstick. The only two drawbacks are that it is difficult to buy online because there is no color description and it is not as long lasting as other mattes I've tried. I bough this in Alabama, which is a crimson with a bit if violet in it. I expected it to have a brown tone to it. I do love the color, though. It is very pigmented and is not drying like most mattes. It does not bleed or creep, even without lipliner. It did not last through lunch--the outline was perfect, but wore on the inner part of my lips. This lipstick is super inexpensive and great for experimenting with new colors or very bold or trending colors you will not be wearing often. It had no taste or scent that I detected. I plan to purchase this lipstick again in Alabama and other colors. Love!

  • Wet n Wild Silk Finish Lipstick

    These are very good lipstick--a steal. I got a bunch of these for 66 cents each on sale! They are creamy, moisturizing, very pigmented, opaque, come in many colors and finishes, have decent longevity, and are a huge bargain, especially if you want to experiment with new colors. Wet n Wild does not test on animals. The colors are easy to select--they are opaque. What you see is what you get. The only issue I had with these lipsticks is you need a lipliner--if you have any lines around your lips, it may bleed into them. I have a great inexpensive clear lipliner for this purpose.

  • Wet n Wild MegaLast Lip Color

    Wet n Wild MegaLast Lip Color

    Definitely worth trying

    The reason I tried these is that I needed a new lipstick fix for fall, but am trying to save money at the moment. And, yes, I am a lipstick hoarder. I saw online that several of these lipsticks were dupes for some popular MAC lipsticks. I found these on sale for less than seventy cents each (they are normally about two dollars). They have great colors, something for every age, taste, and occasion. They are listed as semi matte which is right. They are a comfortable. They are very pigmented, last reasonable long, even through eating. They wear evenly, do not creep or bleed into lip lines. I like the fact that they are fragrance and taste free. They are definitely not MAC feeling, but unlike MAC, I love the fact that Wet n Wild does not test on animals. The color I wanted was Sugar Plum Fairy, which is supposed to replicate MAC Rebel. It was sold out. I did buy Cherry Bomb which is a deep, vampy blackened cherry (thing of the color of the skin of a bing cherry). It is allegedly a dupe for MAC Diva. I love the color and wanted a vampy lipstick--it is perfect, especially because I do not have a place to wear it on a regular basis. With Cherry Bomb only, the color applied a little splotchy and uneven--needed a couple of coats to even the color out. I also bought Mauve Outta Here which is a medium toned orchid/mauve. My favorite is Spiked Rum which is supposed to be a dupe for MAC Del Rio, which is a mid toned, very wearable plummy brown--very flattering. I do not own any of the MAC colors these are supposed to dupe, but if you want to try a color out of your comfort zone, try a dupe before the expensive brand, get something you will not have the occasion to wear often, save money, or get a lot of inexpensive colors, these are definitely worth trying out. There are also a lot of every day colors, nudes, reds, pinks, purples, and browns.
