Although I had read some reviews that said this product left a slightly paste-like residue because it is a titanium dioxide (physcial barrier) based sunscreen, I have to say I really like it. It has a clean mineral smell, isn't greasy, and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. The color is blends right in. I highly recommend it for people with sensitive and acne-prone skin.

I bought this because I have oily and sensitive skin. I also have other Patricia Wexler products that I love. Although this product didn't make me break out, it definitely made my face shine and made application of mineral foundation on top of it hard. I won't buy it again.

I used a whole bottle of this over a month or two and although it did provide a little color "pick-me-up" it wasn't worth the mess and SMELL. Since I have long hair, it would sometimes drip and if you don't wipe it off really quickly it can stain your shower liner. It also stains your skin - I have to use an exfoliant to get rid of the stain on my hands. It's also not easy to apply to the back of your hair with its wide mouth and long shape. I won't use it again.

This is a nice moisterizer on the pricey side. I use Hope in a Jar under my sunscreen that is titanium dioxide based and slightly drying. Too bad Philosphy used lavender - the smell irritates my eyes.

I like using MAC Prep+Prime Lip right before I put on lipstick. It makes the application feel and look smoother.

I had read such great things about Nars Duo Cream Eyeshadow and as a result purchased Madagascar. The two colors were great when first applied. However, by the end of the day, my eyelids were just oily with a little bit of sparkle left and all the color gone! I had even used an eyeshadow base that usually makes anything stay put. I decided to return the product. I love Nars lip products, though.

This fragrance is subtly sexy and I often get compliments when wearing it. It's great for the day or night. I like this better than Amazing Grace.

Although these clothes do an OK job at exfoliation, they are hard to use.

M.A.C. Studio Fix truly is a "fix" for my combination skin. I easily found a color that matches, it applies smoothly, and makes my skin look soft but not too matte. Make sure to let your moisturizer thoroughly dry before applying Fix.

I just starting wearing this foundation and have to admit that the results are amazing. The first day I wore it to work I got a compliment. My only problem is that I am still struggling to find the right color - it seems to be a combo of the Light Ivory 105 and Natural Ivory 115. I have fairly light skin with rosy undertones. But even having to buy 2 shades is a lot cheaper than other higher-end foundations and the results are just as good!
