Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream

Almost in love with it

I like the product... I wish it were a little less greasy. I like to put it on at night, just as I am getting into bed, and it really makes a big difference. I often received comments that my nails looked beautiful before, but now I get compliments that my hands look so nice-guess Burt's is doing their job!

L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Full Definition Mascara

I am only 1/2 in love with it....

This mascara is great for adding volume, and even a little length too, but I don't like the fact that the coverage does not last an entire day. I have to reapply at least one time during an eight hour day, and if I go out after work, I need to reapply a second time.

Almay Makeup Remover Towelettes

Wonderful

I hate having to wash my makeip off at night, and this is the perfect solution for me. The towelettes are thick enough that you can use both sides. It is great to clean the wand for mascara as well!

Hawaiian Tropic Island Glow Daily Moisturizer For Light Skin Tones

What a difference...Jergens should take a lesson or two!

I have light (ok very light) skin tones, and am preparing to go on our last beach vacation of the year, and thought I would give Island Glow a try, not having high expectations considering the many other unsatisifying products I have tried in the past-nevertheless. I tried it, the label says it will take "several" days for the skin tone to darken, but after just two days, I noticed a pleasant change. The scent is not offensive at all, and does a very good job at the color change, as well as providing moisture to my legs. It is even working very nicely on my face!

Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream

Even helps with bags under the eyes

I tried this cream all over my face and loved it. After about a week, I noticed that the dark circles under my eyes were lightening... I can even skip days of creaming my face by a day or two (less to pack when I go camping) because it moisturizes so well!

St. Ives Glowing Skin

Greatest thing since sliced bread

I can't say enough about the Glowing Skin scrub! I used to use the Apricot scrub, but could only use it maybe once or twice a week at the most without my skin drying out completely. I tried the Glowing Skin line and fell in love! It is gentle enough for daily use, but it actually makes a difference to my skin. It is smoother, clear complexion, and the tone is evened out as well!

Almay Intense I-Color Play Up Volumizing Mascara

Junky Funky Brush

Love the formula, love the color options (the raisin quartz with matching liner can make a very bold eye look) HATE the brush...

Arbonne Natural Radiance Mineral Powder Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 15 Sunscreen

Great in the morning, noon, and not so at night

I love the coverage, and quality of the Arbonne lines! Not having mineral oil in anything makes choosing products easy with not needing to read labels. With the foundation, I find the coverage is great, and the color is an OK match, but by the time the sun is setting (and yes the foundation is still visible from the early morning application), the color hasn't adjusted with my bodies chemistry. By dinner time, I look orange...
