Philosophy Purity Made Simple Foaming 3-in-1 Cleansing Gel for Face and Eyes
Good cleanser, using it together with Makeup Optional kit
I recently decided to try the Makeup Optional regime after reading so many positive reviews of it. So far so good, but no dramatic results yet! LOL The cleanser is good, doesn't dry out my skin or make me break out, and I use it once or twice a day (always in the evening). We shall see!

Fun- no one's yet commented that I look-smell 40, but hey- it's worth a try!
Bought this (eBay... heavily discounted) to try it after reading all about it, and it is fun... I bought another bottle to decant into little atomizers for my girlfriends as "favors" for my 50th birthday party! I'm still waiting for someone to ask if I'm 40 (I just turned 50)! Nice smell that's very "grapefruity", and while I personally prefer Joy or Opium, I have been wearing this when we go out!

Bought this together with Aveda face makeup, and tho' I like the makeup a lot I am not crazy about the concealer. It seems to actually accentuate all the fine lines around my eyes, and even though it doesn't seem lighter, it also seems to give me light 'racoon" eyes. So I wind up using only the face makeup...

Aveda Inner Light Mineral Dual Foundation
Good coverage, no breakouts, good color match- happy so far
Started using this last year as an impulse purchase after I got my hair done @Aveda & needed facemakup that was a better match to my skin tone & gave more coverage than the powder "mieral" makeup I was using, and so far I'm quite happy with it. A good color match & it covers the red & blotchy bits, I don't brake out from it, the coverage lasts, & I don't get oily spots. I just wish it didn't seem to accent the crepe-y lines under my eyes...

Supersmile Professional Whitening System
Only products that work for me- on stained enamel-loss- and no sensitivity!
I tired this- the toothpaste & accelarator- because I read good reviews on it and it is actually working without making my teeth hurt! I have enamel loss on the tops of three front teeth for several years which got Badly and darkly stained from red wine & smoking. NOTHING worked to remove the stains, and the "strips" I got from my dentist were so painful I had to stop. I've used this set for only 4 days so far (with an Oral-B "spin brush") and it is actually working- the stains are already really light on 2 of the 3 teeth!!! YAY! I'm sold!

I like it for the soft, velvety feel it gives my skin, I use it daily when I run out of my AminoGenesis products. I also mix it with Sephora's Vitamin C powder. I have never seen any real anti-aging results from it. It's not terribly expensive, so i can keep it in my office desk and put it on frequently.

I just started using this and was really impressed with the coverage it gives. I truly did not believe I'd get coverage of redness, etc., but it works! I probably won't be going back to my trusty MAC pancake opaque makeup now...

I received several sample of Jane Iredale loose mineral makeup to try and I was VERY impressed! I really didn't think I would get the coverage I need with just powder- but I did! And it didn't get into the creases

This truly freezes hair into place- and when I need hairspray, that's what I want!

It's okay, and it's Aveda, so I know it won't damage my hair, & I am using it at present, but it's a "wet" spray, and I truly prefer a "really firm hold" dry aerosol like the super hold Aussie, which I can't seem to find at WalMar any more:-(
