I LOVE CETAPHIL. I have had very few blemish problems since I started using this product which is GREAT! I love it. I do recommend using an eye makeup remover before (I use waterproof mascara), but think this product really does the job. I love it!

Palettes -NARS - License to Kill Artist Palette
rated 5 of 5
alikona 9/21/2001 3:16:00 PM

Another gorgeous palette from NARS...though you ladies who like white eye shadow will be a bit upset. 4 white eye shadows can be a bit too much for anyone. It is still a great palette that makes more new looks if combined with the other palettes. If you are looking to only buy one, choose something more versitile like Rapture, American Beauty or Lust for Life.

What a great NARS Palette. This palette, in the manner of the Skin Deep Artist Palette, is designed to compliment any complexion and does a great job. The colors are a bit bolder than Skin Deep, but are beautiful and easy to apply. A great addition to any NARS collection.

I am in love with this stuff. This mascara makes every single lash stand out...it also makes application to the lower lashes a breeze. It's a steal considering the price as well! HIGHLY recommended!

Another great palette from Urban Decay. I like this one...much easier to find daytime combinations...and I LOVE the SWF lipstick. All in all, a great palette just like everyone else says!

Makeup Brushes -Urban Decay - Concealer Brush
rated 5 of 5
alikona 9/21/2001 3:05:00 PM

I think this is a great concealer brush...especially if you are looking for a synthetic one as I was (easier to wash the stuff out!) Thick and stiff bristles that made it easy to be precise were the best part about this brush. Highly recommended.

Concealers -Laura Mercier - Secret Camouflage

I really wanted to like this product as I am trying to get away from wearing foundation and stick to concealer where I need it and powder. This caked up and turned yellow on my face by the middle of the day. I think it is going back to the store. Ugh.

This is a great product. I just purchased Bullitt last night and I love it. It has good staying power, the colors are vivid and amazing and the brush is great. I highly recommend this product!

Lip Treatments -Kiehls - Baby Lip Balm
rated 3 of 5
alikona 9/21/2001 2:57:00 PM

I think the price is a bit much for a lip balm that you have to reapply every 30 minutes, but I do love this stuff. Make sure you keep it inside with the a/c because it will melt quickly. I learned this the hard way by leaving it in my car in Florida. =)

LORAC Sheer Lipsticks are perfect. They do not dry out your lips and leave you with a great finish. Naturally Demi is the ideal color for an everyday look.

This is my official "you can only take one item to a deserted island" item. There are 4 products in the package: Vitamin E cream, light pink cream eyeshadow, concealer in c2 and red/brown cheek tint. The packaging is great...there is a screw on lid and a mirror on the back. This product is perfect for mid-day touchups and can also be all you need. Get one today!

A great creamy product that lasts all day and feels fabulous while it's on! There are many colors and, albeit cheesy, I like the phrases on the packaging!

What a great lip gloss! At $2.50, nobody should be without one! Useful all the time, I have them strewn about my house and office so I am never without. Get one ASAP!
