Mario Badescu Skin Care Mario Badescu AHA & Ceramide Moisturizer
A Great Moisturizer for Combination Skin
If you have combination skin this is a truly good moisturizer. It is emollient yet goes on light and absorbs quickly. You don't have to worry about a greasy feel or an oily look. My skin felt comfortable all day and very soft. Works well over aby serum and under sunscreen. Good for day and/or night. Light enough for oily skins also.

I had a little apprehension about trying this product but that was soon put to rest. I used this after styling (blow drying, flat ironing). I pumped a small amount of product in my hand, rubbed my palms together and smoothed it over my hair. Not only did it help keep it in place it smoothed those peskey shorter hairs that some of us have at the hairline. It kept them in place and lasted all day. A good product if you want to bring out layers or texture in your hair also. I recommend this versatile and cool product.

I have to say this product surprised me. It really brought out the natural wave in my hair. The waves were soft and natural and lasted. This is a light product with NO crunchy feel or "wet look" or stickiness. It has a clean scent. A great product that I recommend.

This perfume starts out a little strong but becomes subtle and very pretty. The scent works well for a afternoon into evening and reminds me of a warm spring day that turns into a cool evening. It is a good quality and lasting perfume.

As far as the overall performance of this product goes, I would give it a C+. It was easy to apply using the round-tipped applicator and the color was good (black). However, it did not live up to the claims in terms of non-clumping, separation and non-smudging. I didn't overuse the product during application yet it did go on "heavy" and I had some clumping. Wiping the applicator helped somewhat but it still did not separate lashes as claimed.

Though my eyelashes have a natural curve I still like to experiment with eyelash curlers for an open-eyed effect. Until I tried the Shu Uemura curler I was never satisfied. This curler fits practically every eye shape and gives a long lasting lift and curl. Many people do not like the cost of the lash curler but in my opinion it is very well worth it. I consider it a good investment, especially since I am always pleased with the results. The pads do need to be changed when they show signs of wear (i.e. you can see the groove of the curler imprinted in the pad). It is also recommended that you replace the curler itself after an extended length of time (when it seems to have less grip or loosens). This is the only lash curler I will ever use and I recommend it as a worthy investment.

This lip balm not only works well at keeping lips soft, hydrated and sun protected but the design of the tube slips easily into purse or pockets for convenience. It goes on really smooth and the hydration lasts well. I will certainly buy it again.

I have used several eye makeup removers in the past and most of them left the skin around my eyes burning or itching. Not so with Bliss Lid & Lash Wash. I apply it to a round cotton pad, wipe down over my eyelids and lashes a couple times and the makeup removes easily with no tugging. The best part is how clean my eyes feel afterward. I am a contact lens wearer and even though i probably should not, I have removed my eye makeup with my contacts still in. Again, no stinging or no clouding up on my contact lenses. I would recommend this product for anyone with sensitive skin or contact wearers.

When in NYC it is a MUST to go to Rescue Beauty Lounge. It is a clean and professional establishment and the owner, Ji Baek, is genuinely friendly and helpful. Rescue's Line of nail polish lives up to the reputation of the business. It goes on smoothly and evenly, the color is true and long lasting. When used with the Rescue Top Coat your mani/pedi looks fresh for days. One of my faves is Chinoise, a perfect red shade that is great for year round.

The last time I was in NYC I visited Rescue Beauty Lounge for a manicure. I was greatly impressed by the cleanliness and professionalism. The hand cream used during my manicure was the Spiced Floral fragrance. It is a lovely scent for any season. The cream absorbs quickly and regular use keeps my hands soft and feeling comfortable. It keeps the cuticles moisturized as well. I use it daily and nightly before bedtime. Works great on elbows and knees also. I will definitely keep using this product.
