I really, really wanted this to work for me, but sadly it made me break out on my cheeks and I NEVER break out there.

I wanted to love this product. It did not leave my face tight like most cleansers (ie Purpose), or an icky film (ie Cerave, Cetaphil). After 5 days it gave me a bad breakout on my chin.

Moisturizers -Clinique - Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion
rated 4 of 5

I like the pump option and the simple basic ingredients in this moisturizer. I tried this when I was younger (I'm 31 now) and it did not work for my skin. Now I use it just on my dry spots, like my cheeks, and it leaves them soft and hydrated, but not greasy or broken out. I'm glad I gave it another try because every other lotion I have tried has given me a dermatitis flare. I have combination skin that is super reactive and dermatitis-prone and also acneprone.

This is a great simple eye cream to provide moisture to the eye area without irritation.

This product worked so well on my skin when it dried out when I was pregnant, but sadly now that I have had my baby it just sits on my face and clogs my pores :(

Cleansers -Neutrogena - Fresh Foaming Cleanser
rated 2 of 5
CaraC 12/5/2008 8:41:00 PM

I love this cleanser! I switched to this after the detergent in my beloved Purpose flared my dermatitis after having my baby. It cleanses well and does not leave my skin overly dry. The bottle is attractive for a cleanser and you can control easily the amount of product pumped out. I don't wear makeup or sunscreen so I cannot comment on its ability to remove those products. Edited: I have to reduce this to two stars. It gave me a horrible dermatitis flare on my face so now I use it to wash my chest/upper back after rinsing out my conditioner.

You get a lot of product for the price. It is ugly packaging and too much is dispensed with a pump. This stuff left a film on my face and made me break out. I wouldn't even wash my body with it.

OUCH!!!!! This stuff burned the heck out of my eye area. Even when I washed it off, it still burned and left it red and irritated for days. Promptly returned this to Kiehls. If you are sensitive at all, beware.

This smells disgusting and it did nothing. Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask works a hundred times better and you can a monstrous tube for $3.

Treatments (Eye) -Kiehls - Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado

Try this before you buy it. I found this product to be thick like spackle, no matter how I tried to warm it up with my fingers. It just sat there and felt greasy and did nothing. Good thing I live near Kiehls and could return it.

Lipstick -MAC - Frost Lipstick in O
rated 5 of 5
CaraC 11/15/2003 6:31:00 PM

I generally hate lipstick, but this is the first I will use up and actually repurchase. I am a MACNW20-25 and this looks more mauve than red on me. Natural and sure to get you many compliments. Doesn't dry lips out.

I hated this stuff. I have thick wavy hair and thought this would be great. Left my hair a greasy mess no matter how little I applied. I gave it a two because my little sister loves it. YMMV.

Blush -NARS - Sin

I love the packaging of NARS blushes--you get a ton of product and it is very sleek. However, this color was just not for me. I am a MAC NW20-25 and this made me look like a clown, no matter how lightly I applied. I am sticking with Orgasm.
