  • Yves Saint Laurent Beauty Parisienne Eau de Parfum Spray

    I have the spray sample to review, and although I am a perfume addict, I was not too thrilled to see this one. Anything pink scares me. To me, a woman should not smell "pink". But I quickly shook this out of my head and vowed to be fair. I spritzed my wrist, and at first, was pleasantly surprised. Oh, this is a bit lovely, I thought. Could be nice on a spring day. But as the hours wore on, I became sick to my stomach. Maybe it was bad sushi from last night, but I really think it was this fragrance. It's just too much. There is no detectable dry down, it smells the same (if not stronger) as when I sprayed it on. I normally give unwanted perfume samples to my six year daughter. But this time I will be tossing it, since I don't want to smell this ANYWHERE near me!

  • L'Oreal Paris Telescopic Explosion Carbon Black Mascara

    Not blown away.. not explosive at all. I guess it's a novel idea, but there are much better mascaras out there that make your lashes fuller. As far as it's claim to make the outer lashes come out more, I suppose it does, but you can get the same result with a regular brush if you know how to use it properly. I am a devotee of Diorshow mascara, which does cost quite a bit more. But then, I like really dramatic lashes. This would be good for a natural look, perhaps for teens.

  • L'Oreal Paris HiP Studio Secrets Professional Concentrated Shadow Duos

    Awesome colors, great staying power... packed with pigment. In my opinion this is as good as MAC, and cheaper. Has a cute little mirror, but it's a bit hard to use the shadow and the mirror at the same time. Comes with a sponge applicator, but you would be better off using a brush for whole lid application. The applicator is good for contouring though. Some of the colors are very dramatic, and may be too much for some, but you will never be bored with the selection. Loreal hit the jackpot with the HIP line.

  • Bath & Body Works True Blue Spa Look Ma, New Hands Softening Hand Lotion with Paraffin

    Not horrible, but not "new" hands either. Does moisturize, but wont heal super dry skin.

  • Naturopathica Green Tea Wasabi Mask

    Despite the scary "wasabi" in the name, it is not harsh. It does a great job of refreshing and deep cleaning. As a bonus, it is all natural and eco-friendly. I really love this mask and use it once a week and my skin is happy!

  • Peter Thomas Roth Oil-Free Moisturizer
    9.0

    Peter Thomas Roth Oil-Free Moisturizer

    really nice for oily skin

    I use this in the winter, and I have oily skin. Only use if your skin is dry too... and only on dry parts! It is a bit pricey (as are all PTR products), but you will not be disappointed. This is non-greasy and well formulated. 9 out of 10 for price only

  • Peter Thomas Roth Beta Hydroxy 2% Acne Wash
    8.0

    Peter Thomas Roth Beta Hydroxy 2% Acne Wash

    nice.. but cheaper options out there

    It's a well formulated BHA (aka salyclic acid) cleanser. Absolutely works, but it doesn't do any better than Neutrogena acne wash. For the price, I would go with Neutrogena. I give it an 8 for the price only.

  • June Jacobs Perfect Pumpkin Peeling Enzyme Masque

    This is a great masque for revealing fresher and brighter skin. Admittedly it does cost a bit, but it's cheaper than going and getting a facial... with VERY similar results. The enzymes are active and really do their job. And the smell is like pumpkin pie!

  • Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller

    I really like this. It's so cool on the eyes (temp. wise). When I have had a sleepless night, it wakes my eyes up, and keeps puffiness at bay. I would say it's as good as cucumber slices, but much more convenient. I keep one at home and one in my purse. For the price, you can't go wrong!
