Fragrances -Demeter - Dirt Pick Me Up Spray
rljp 5/19/2006 7:40:00 PM
This really smells like dirt and that's just frightening. I would never wear this as a perfume again, but I can see why people would wear this as a clean fragrance. Demeter scents are really for nostalgic scent seekers out there!

Lipstick -Wet 'n' Wild - Lipstick
rljp 5/19/2006 7:34:00 PM
One word, Awful! Look, I'm all for bargains, believe me, it's nice to find a discount, but why would anybody buy this product? The quality is just waxy and it smells terrible! I used to buy W&W when I was first experimenting with make-up and then my mother pulled me aside when I was a teenager and brought me to the Macys make-up counter. Ladies there are so many beautiful lipsticks out there! High-end makeup brand lipsticks cost more because the pigment in the formula is more concentrated and there is no need to reapply many times. True you're also buying the name, which annoys people and myself as well, for example Chanel, Lancome, etc.. but it's going on your face and your face is important. This is but my opinion, I don't want to insult anyone, I just think my fellow MUA ladies should try and give the high-enders a try.

Lip Treatments -Perfumeria Gal - Red Currant Lip Balm
rljp 5/19/2006 7:21:00 PM
Beautiful tins, but the lip balm is average. It's like any other lip balm out there on the market that's petroleum based. The scent varies from each lip balm, but overall nice product and pretty scent. I do love those tins, really lovely.

Cleansers -Noxzema - Original Skin Cream
rljp 5/17/2006 2:56:00 PM
Love this stuff! I've been using this since I was a teenager! It helps get rid of your acne, dirt on your face, a make-up remover, not to mention wonderful moisturizer! I'd recommend this product more for combination/oily skin types. It's wonderful for sun or kitchen burns! I love this stuff and will continue using it. Why purchase some gimmick product for over twenty dollars when this is only $3 bucks and works magic!

This is an ABSOLUTE MUST when you are suffering from a cold/flu! Not only does it moisturize, but it's soothing and helps clear up your congested nasal passages! I've replaced my Vicks with this stuff, cute tin as well, very vintagey/medicinal feel.

Powders -LUSH - Silky Underwear Dusting Powder

I love, love, love, love the scent! The dusting powder is a great moisturizer on your feet! I sprinkle some in my shoes or on my sandals during the summer months and it prevents blisters and moisture from coming! I wish they had a perfume of this fragrance!

Lotions/ Creams -Korres - Vanilla Cinnamon Body Lotion

Wonderful smell, very light and warm. It reminds me of Christmas baking and gingerbread cookies! Nice moisturizer, but the body butters are much better at that.

Oh my goodness, the scent is amazing! It's sand, sea breeze, tradewinds, and tropical air all in one! It reminded me of Hawaii all over again! This butter is a wonderful moisturizer, watch out ladies, a little goes a long way! It's a wonderful product, kudos to the amazing Greeks for inventing this butter!

I can't seem to find the lip balm anywhere anymore, but it was a nice lip balm, moisturizing, with a lovely vanilla taste. I thought the tin was very cute, overall nice lip balm.

Lip Treatments -Burt's Bees - Beeswax Lip Balm
rljp 5/13/2006 2:16:00 PM
It's a decent lip balm, in fact I found it to be too waxy and I normally have no problems with beewax lip balms at all! The taste and scent are light, but overall it's okay. All of my co-workers love this stuff, I prefer Mama Coco's and Aunt Bee's any day over.

Lip Treatments -Unlisted Brand - chicken poop
rljp 5/13/2006 2:10:00 PM
I love this stuff, not to mention, the title alone would either attract you to it, or repel you, luckily I chose to purchase some chicken poop and I was so happy that I did! It's a wonderful lip balm, great moisturizer, 100% natural, and the scent is a lavender/orange one. I put some on, right before I go to bed, especially if my lips are really chapped and when I'm having trouble sleeping, I kid you not, lavender has sleep inducing properties, that help you relax and I hit the pillow immediately. Besides the sleeping little story I shared with you, it's a great lip balm and really inexpensive, have you had some chicken poop today? Well, what are you waiting for?

Lotions/ Creams -Bath and Body Works - Savannah Bee Company Beeswax Hand Cream
rljp 5/13/2006 2:01:00 PM
I love this hand cream! The smell is wonderful, it's a warm pecan and berry scent and it merries well. It has a beautiful texture and it absorbs quickly into your skin. It's great and I'm in love with it! It lasts a long time and you rarely need to reapply if you've washed your hands! I do wish it came in a plastic jar instead of a glass one, less breakage worry.

Lip Treatments -Bath and Body Works - Savannah Bee Company--Blackberry lip balm tin
rljp 5/13/2006 1:20:00 PM
I loved this lip balm. It smells lovely, works nicely, but when you're dealing with natural products, they do tend to disappear rapidly and then you need to reapply. This is a good product to use at home, but if you love this scent and product, I would suggest the lip balm stick version.
