It actually pains me to have to write a negative review about anything from Urban Decay. My love is true for UD, but not for their Transforming Potion. I love the idea, but had difficulty applying a visible line, and then when added too much potion, some dripped into my eyes! It stung and caused me to tear for several minutes. So many better ways to accomplish a liquid liner, pass on this one.

PCA Skin pHaze 9 Purifying Mask
If you are prone to breakouts, this is a great Clarifying Mask to use
I really enjoyed using this high quality facial mask, the smell isn't fabulous, but the French Red Clay and the algae are wonderful ingredients and will benefit most skintypes. The mask also contains a small amount of scrubbies to add to your exfoliation.

I have been a fan of Clinique's Almost Lipstick for over 10 years. Black Honey is a great combination of subtle sheer color and shine, and its a beautiful shade too. Not too dark, not too red or pink, just pretty. It's a casual, go-to shade for everyday and it always is in my purse.

This eye treatment formula is a wonderful serum-like consistency that absorbs quickly into your skin without leaving a greasy feeling. It also contain several beneficial ingredients that will soothe, protect and repair your skin. Highly recommended!

KP Duty contains AHA's which although I slather all kinds of acids on my face, I have never consistently used AHA's on my hands and feet. I also wondered if using a hand cream with AHA's would sting or irritate my already sensitive, dry skin. So far so good, and I have had no issues with stinging. This cream leaves my hands feeling a bit slippery, but in a few minutes, the slip subsides, and I just have soft, protected skin. So far this season I haven't noticed any of the tale-tell signs of cold weather, namely the split skin on my knuckles and tip of my thumb. I hope that by continuing to use KP duty, my skin will remain soft, smooth, and in one piece! Highly recommended.

I would have to agree with many of the reviews here. La Mer Creme touts being miraculous, while I found it to be slightly greasy and too heavy for most skin types. I would only recommend this formula for women with extremely dry skin. This particular creme doesn't wow me, and for this price, I would pass. There are much better moisturizing cremes to choose and for a lot less money.

I just tried L'Oreal's Clean Definition Telescopic Mascara and I must say, "Not bad, not bad at ALL!" The wand length is a bit long, but I found that the patented tip works well to brush mascara cleanly on lashes without clumping. Good length and definition and no smudging or flaking so far (Even after a cold, windy trip to a farm with four children!). For being priced under $7 at my local Wal-Mart, I would say L'Oreal's Clean Definition Telescopic Mascara is a winner.

I found that the DERMAdoctor wrinkle revenge rescue and eye balm is overall a very good eye treatment. It is lightly moisturizing, and not overly heavy or greasy, and easily absorbed into the skin around the eye (without irriation). This eye balm incorporates peptides, green and white tea extracts, caffeine (diminishes inflammation and fluid retention), sodium hyaluronate, retinyl palmitate (vitamin A), all well proven and beneficial skincare ingredients. This formula isn't fancy or outrageously expensive, just a good solid eye treatment. Good going DERMAdoctor!

I have used the Bliss Triple Oxygen mask, and think it does basically what it claims to do. It is a soothing, refreshing facial mask, but if you are expecting anything more from it, you will be disappointed. Certainly not worth the cost, and the pump mechanism is faulty and does not disperse the product effectively. I feel like I am being generous giving this product 7 stars.

JMSR uncovered a proprietary peptide which when combined with other essential factors produces eyelash and brow enhancement. Does it work? I started using Marini Lash three weeks ago. I applied a light application of Marini Lash conditioning treatment to the top of each lash line every evening. Today my lashes are looking better and thicker than ever, and I even opted to not wear mascara. Usually I would never leave the house without mascara because without mascara or eyeliner my eyes appear tired and nondescript. Marini Lash retails at most beauty sites for $160. Yes, very expensive indeed! This is one of those products that most of us would like to try, but aren't willing or able to pay the $160. My advice is holding off on buying this until the price drops or if you can use a discount code, or a competitor comes out with a similar product for a much more reasonable price. Sorry Jan!
