Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant

As good as they say!

My dermatologist recommended this because I tend to turn pink pretty easily. Even though I'm large-pored and acne-prone my skill is still really sensitive. However, this scrub doesn't irritate me and I've found that just leaving it on a while longer (not even touching it) heightens the effect. It is expensive but it usually lasts me more than a year since I only use it evey other day or so.

Stila Smudge Pot

One liner.

This is the only liner you will need.

Clinique Butter Shine Lipstick

Smooth and shiny.

This lipstick goes on very smoothly and looks wonderfully shiny. My only real problem with it is that it's prone to melting--even the testers at the display counter don't hold up well under the lights--so I keep it out of my purse in the summer months. Otherwise it's great, especially if you don't feel like a sticky gloss or a heavy lipstick.

Smashbox O-Glow

pretty in (only) an instant.

If applied correctly this blush can look quite lovely--all it takes is a little tiny bit. The problem; however, is that the loveliness doesn't last as long as it should.

Stila Lip Glaze

Get glossy--hold the sugar.

A great lipgloss with a wonderful consistency. Just skip the Brown Sugar. For some reason Stila insists on including it in the majority of their sets but on us pale girls it creates a muddy-grey (not pretty) color.

Stila Fiber Optics Mascara

Fiber rich?

Fiber is great in your diet--not so great in this mascara. The fibers can get a little clumpy and spidery rather than pretty and lush.
