Head & Shoulders Sensitive Care Shampoo

I dont have dandruff but I still use it!

My Dad and Brother have dandruff and so use this shampoo but I have slightly oily hair which I like to wash every day and this shampoo has proven to be a gentle, cleansing, pleasant-smelling, softening product which although fairly expensive, is a high quality shampoo- when using Head and Shoulders I do not need to condition.

Avon PERFECT WEAR Extralasting Liquid Foundation SPF 15

High quality product, yet is it good enough for the price?

I have tried several foundations prior to this, all of which I was a little displeased with because although they created a fairly smooth, even tint for a few hours, what they lacked was staying power. I decided to splash out and spend my money on a foundation which i hoped would allow me to feel comfortable in my own skin and fresh faced not just in the morning but the whole day through. I purchased Avon Perfect Wear extralasting foundation in 'nude' as I have an extremely pale complexion. This shade once blended, is just about spot on for my skin tone. I find this foundation a little difficult to blend in, I tend to tug at my skin slightly which I resent doing as I'm worried it might cause premature skin ageing. It has a tendency to become patchy if it is not thoroughly massaged in to the face. I never have to use a large amount of this product to cover my whole face which is lucky since it is really quite expensive (and I bought it when it was on sale too!) One thing I would advise is that if you apply moisturiser to your face, wait a little while before putting this foundation over it, otherwise it could result in the distribution of the colour being a little blotchy and uneven. This product never gives me a caked, orangey appearance which is a relief. It leaves my skin smooth and matte with an even complexion and subtle hint of colour whilst slightly reducing the appearance of undereye circles. The synopsis of this product promises that the formula is sweat proof which I do not completely agree with, yet this foundation is the most long-wearing of those I have tried and is undoubtedly of higher quality. I often recieve compliments on the smoothness of my skin. I would not be so mesmerized as to declare that this is the foundation of dreams or that it lives up completely to what it claims but it is a good foundation with staying power, though in my opinion, not quite worth it's expensive price tag.
