Cleansers -Eucerin - Redness Relief Soothing Cleanser

Won't buy this again. Notice no difference in the redness on my face. A lot of product is wasted because of its container's design. I end up using a whole lot of product that just takes longer to get off the face. I'll use up what I've got left, which is a lot, unfortunately.

Self Tanners -Jergens - Natural Glow
loolee 4/28/2005 2:43:00 AM
Well, this stuff just smells like any other self-tanning product, and I can't stand that smell! I only used it once. It didn't streak and it provided a very nice, soft color, but I couldn't get past that nasty smell! I gave it to someone else to try in the hopes that they don't mind that ickly smell which is created during the self-tanning process.

Treatments (Eye) -Kiss My Face - Eye Witness Eye Cream

I really like this stuff! I tried it based on recommendations at this forum. I was desperate for something! I had total eye bags because I had been using my regular moisterizer as eye cream. It is a very lightweight forumla that quickly dissolved into the eye area. It didn't irritate my very sensitive eyes, either! Plus, hygenic & cost effective packaging. I will continue to buy!

Blush -Milani - Smooth Finish Blush - Luminous
loolee 4/28/2005 2:34:00 AM
An overall great blush! It's drawback is the packaging in that I find it a bit difficult to get open. The color, Luminous, is very similar to Cover Girl's Snow Plum. Luminous is just a tad richer. When I use Luminous, it is to add some complexity to the naturally flushed, angelic, dewy look I so deliriously try to achieve. So, I don't use it alone; I use it in conjunction with Snow Plum. I haven't tried the Nars color (Orgasm?) that Luminous is often compared to, but it is a soft, beautiful color. I am pale with red hair & freckles. Enjoy!

Blush -Cover Girl - Cheekers in Snow Plum
loolee 4/28/2005 2:28:00 AM
I love this product! It is my HG blush! I have used it for several years, now! I have pale skin with freckles & red hair. I think this stuff makes my skin look naturally flushed, angelic & dewy, all at the same time! Plus, the color is so pale, I don't even bother blending it in after brushing it on. I also dab some on my chin to soften the ruddiness since I don't do foundation. Also works well as a quick highlighter at the brow bone to open the eye area. I have to tell you, if I was stranded on Survivor with only 1 luxury item, it would be ~this~ & not mascara!

Treatments -Neutrogena - Instant Nail Enhancer [DISCONTINUED]
loolee 4/28/2005 2:21:00 AM
I tried this stuff hoping for the best. I got it in pearl but I think I would have liked buff better if it had been in stock. After I figured out how to shake the product out of the dispenser properly, the very first time I used it, I was pleased. My nails really did look nice but still natural. It dried ~really~ quick & didn't smell bad at all. I didn't mind that the stuff came off after hand washings-- I thought it was really a rather gradual sort of peeling away. BUT. The product got grainy after about 2 weeks & would no longer go on in a thin coat. Would glop on and then peel off. Plus, the crud would start to drip out of the applicator. Ugh. I threw it away. The entire time I was able to use it, it ~did~ rather seem to deteriorate the condition of my nails. Sigh.

Lips -Burt's Bees - Lip Shimmer in Nutmeg
loolee 3/13/2005 11:01:00 PM
Great product! Goes on lips like a stain, so it doesn't look fake like lipstick can. I am strawberry blonde with pale skin and freckles; Nutmeg becomes a cheery coral on my lips. Oddly, it doesn't darken my lips, it brightens them. I highly recommend!

Hair -L'Oreal - Excellence Creme Haircolor

For so long I have tried to lighten my medium to dark brown hair in one process without going orange. As a last resort, I tried Blonde Supreme in extra light ash blonde (01) on my hair which already had color in it but had turned brassy. Success! I am now a dark, neutral gold (if gold can be neutral). It looks very natural, and covered the gray, as well. For those with darker colored locks who would be satisfied with a dirty blonde tone, this is for you!
