The positives are this is not oily and does not irritate my skin and is great to clean up eye makeup mistakes and keep in your purse to clean up smudges throughout the day. The negatives are that it is too expensive especially considering it does not remove waterproof eye products well enough.

These shadows go on silky smoothly, last all day, are very pigmented, do not crease and do not irritate my eyelids. They are a little more pricy than some, but are high quality, easy to blend, and the color palettes are classics-you will want at least one of these in your makeup bag.

This is a very soft warm orangey citrusy scent with a lightly sweet background that reminds me of brown sugar. It is very pretty, subtle, long lasting scent that does not aggravate my allergies.

This is scented but did not irritate my skin. I have dry combo skin and it was a little bit too drying for me in the cheek area, but it really worked in the acne prone areas. This is a great product for women with oilier skin who are also approaching or beyond forty and are concerned about wrinkles. Many anti-aging prodcuts are also for severely dry skin and do not work well even for me, let alone oiler skins.

This is a lovely fresh clean scent that is not overpowering. It lasts a long time and is not too expensive. It also does not bother my allergies which is a huge plus. I usually avoid most perfumes.

This is a refreshing eye gel, especially if you cool it in the fridge to reduce puffiness. I like that it is in a tube for ease of application, and convenient for travel. It did not irritate my very sensitive skin and was moisturizing. The only problem is that the antioxidants you are paying for are compromised by the clear tube, otherwise I would have given it a much higher score.

I am not into scrubs, but this one is great for sensitive allergy prone skin. It does not lather. It is a sugar scrub so it effectively exfoliates your skin without damaging or irritating it. It is fragrance free, but the moisturizing ingredients give it a light chocoately smell. It cleanses, rinses cleanly, does not cause acne. It is reasonably priced, too.

Paula's Choice Skin Balancing Invisible Finish Moisture Gel
Great light gel moisturizer for sensitive combo skin
This is an great light gel moisturizer for very sensitive, allergy prone, combination skin. Most sensitive skin formulas are geared for severely dry skin. It has a lard like texture but it is not greasy. It does not cause acne. It lightly moisturizes dry areas, you can use it around your eyes. It is fragrance free and has no odor. It did leave a slight film on my face that peeled a bit under my foundation, but is great for night time. It is a value.

If you are looking for a lipstick that will not budge, smudge, or bleed, this is it. The color is even difficult to take off with a good makeup remover. The moisturizer/gloss step is essential. This lipstick is very drying and emphasizes lip lines. I had to apply the moisturizer constantly to prevent chapping (much more than reapplying a good quality cream lipstick). The colors were okay, but not great with my coloring. I would consider this if I were in a wedding or another event with a lot of camera time (or kissing) and was wearing a very dark or bright lip color. I ended up tossing this lip product--did not like it.

This is a great cleanser that leaves your face clean (even removes makeup well) and rinses off thorughly. Love the pump, love the foamy texture. It does not irritate highly sensitive allergy prone skin. It has a light fresh scent. It is one of the few products I have found for sensitve, yet oilier skin--most sensitive skin products are made for very, very dry skin. The salicylic acid should also improve your skin because it exfoliates your skin and helps with out with acne followed by a good pimple cream. have dry combination skin and this product was a little bit to drying for me in the winter, but is is great at those times when my skin is oilier. This product is also a bargain!
