this is amazing stuff, it makes your skin feel so incredibly smooth and soft. I don't use it as much as I should, but when i'm feeling particularly in need of polishing I whip this out and smear it all over and rub it in. The scratchy part (i think its made of olive pits) really gets off the dead skin and bumps and the base is unbelievably moisturizing. I have turned a few friends on to this product.

I was excited to try this product (in blond) when i read about it in allure magazine, they said it would be good for those of us with fair skin. and sure the color is fine but why oh why does every bronzer need to be full of shiny particles. I do not like wearing makeup that, well, looks like makeup. I wanted a bronzer that looked like i had been snowboarding over the weekend and forgot my goggles, not one that looked as if i had been to martigras! So still looking for the perfect bronzer san glitter.

I have had a few of these (tried the different colors) and I have had my favorite (Pink) for over a year and it smells and feels the same as when I first bought it. This is very nice lip gloss, not tacky but not too slippery. The mint smell and taste is very nice and feels a bit cooling. For ladies with fair skin i recommend sticking with the pink color the others just didn't look right

My friend turned me on to this when I went on Accutane in college (it completely dries out your skin). I started using this balm and never stopped. It is slightly (and i mean barely) iridescent and has the most subtle tint (so don't use it if you are looking for color, but it would probably layer well over lip liner). It doesn't last long but reaplying it is easy and not a social faux-pas like the lipstick at the dinner table and you don't need a mirror. It smells nice but not overly scented and the packaging is cute and retro.

I use this every morning in the shower, its very gentle so sometime i feel like i'm not getting buffed enough, and i try something harsher like the Apricot stuff, which then irritates my skin and makes me break out so . . . maybe gentle is the way to go. I've been using it pretty faithfully for a few years, I wouldn't say that it makes me "glow" but it does prevent that dead skin build up and flaky skin if you use it regularly.

So I have really sensitive eyes and dry eyes. I keep trying other "luxury" brands but I keep coming back to this (in black). It doesn't flake (seriously, every other mascara i have tried flakes and hense irritates my eyes), and it doesn't make me look like twiggy (I have very long lashes) my only tiny tiny critique is that it does clump a bit after you have had one tube for a while, but i just keep one of those individual mascara applicators (the kind you can get at a beauty counter for testing mascara) around to whip out any clumps. Highly recommend this product, my sister uses it too.

BareMinerals Mineral Veil Finishing Powder Broad Spectrum SPF 25
keeps me from looking oily but never chaulky
This is great stuff. I got the whole starter set, and while i have given up on most of the products (they seem to unhelpfully accentuate the peachy-fuzz on my face) I have stuck with the mineral veil. after just putting on concealer and cream blush i set it all with mineral veil. I end to get a bit oily as the day goes on but this stuff keeps things under control all day. But it doesn't look totally matte either. I buff a minimal amount on with the full coverage kabuki brush concentrating on my forehead then I rub my hands gently over my face to remove any excessive powder and done. I had never been a particularly big powder person but this stuff is great. just make sure you run your hands over you face to get the powder from settling on YOUR peach fuzz!
