Liquid -Clinique - Superfit Foundation [DISCONTINUED]
Ryce_Chick 4/9/2003 2:36:00 AM
This was a lot cheaper in comparison to my Lancome foundation but i gave it a try, first the lightest color was too dark for me but i bought it anyways, the staying power was bad and i had oil slick by mid day, it seemed to get darker as the day progressed, and the coverage wasn't superior. I didn't like it that much and i won't buy it ever again.

Lip Treatments -Blistex - Complete Moisture Lip Balm
Ryce_Chick 4/9/2003 2:33:00 AM
This is a great nighttime lip treatment for those who love waking up to soft kissable lips. It lost a point because it smells very much like the lemon neocitrin i drink when i am sick hehe. Otherwise i reccomend this to everyone. And it also has a beautiful cooling moisture charged feeling upon application. Quite neat!

Moisturizers -Lancome - Impactive Multi-performance silkening moisturizer
Ryce_Chick 4/9/2003 2:30:00 AM
From the higly perfumey smell to the beautiful pimples i woke up to, i didn't have a good encounter with this cream. Though my skin was smoother, i found it too thick for my combo-oily skin and build up was evident in the morning. I would not repurchase this again because it doesn't work well for my acne prone skin type.

Toners -Biotherm - Biopur Matifying Astringent Lotion
Ryce_Chick 4/9/2003 2:28:00 AM
Well, this was supposed to reduce oil production by 46 percent in two weeks and i got nothing. I broke out, the white oil absorbing powder that has to be shaken before use seemed to complicate with the application of my foundation and i found it a useless step and my skin cleared up a week after i stopped using it.

Moisturizers -Neostrata - Smoothing Cream (all concentration levels)
Ryce_Chick 4/9/2003 2:25:00 AM
YUCK i hated it, it made me break out, felt funky on my skin, i had to redip my fingers into the jar which can cause bacteria to spread, and after much sucess with Lac Hydrin i thought this would be a better answer because it costs more....but NO. Stay away if you are acne prone!

Shampoo -Paul Mitchell - Tea Tree line
Ryce_Chick 4/9/2003 2:18:00 AM
This is a great build up remover that can be used often or once a week if using other shampoos and conditioners. I like to use this when my hair is beggining to feel limp and oily. It cleans and leaves my hair soft and shiny, not frizzy and dry. Smells great too!

Moisturizers -Cetaphil - Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF15
Ryce_Chick 4/9/2003 2:15:00 AM
This is a light moisturizer that moisturizes just enough for me in the morning and is not greasy. The only downside is the slight burning sensation i get from the active parsol 1789 sunscreen ingredient in it, but that subsides really quickly. I use it under makeup and my makeup goes on well with no balling up.

Lotions/ Creams -Lac Hydrin - Lac Hydrin 12 Cream
Ryce_Chick 4/9/2003 2:13:00 AM
This is my secret weapon skin moisturizer. It is the reason my face is silky smooth and flawless. It is dirt cheap here in Canada and runs for about 10 bucks for a good sized bottle. I use it nightly and it lasts me over a year. I have oily-combo skin and it doesn't clog my pores or make me break out, it also allows my daily makeup to go on smoothly the next morning after removal. But because this is an AHA you gotta use sunscreen daily if you are gonna try it out.

This is light and full of roses...mmmmm the only downside is the staying power of the EDT, maybe the EDP would be a better option for me.

Eye Shadow -Maybelline - Cool Effect Eye Color
Ryce_Chick 4/9/2003 2:04:00 AM
This is quite good and very comparable to lancome's twinkle tubes, this formula is very non-creasing and shimmery though it can feel a little heavy on the eyes for those not used to eyeshadow creams, otherwise i would use it as a base or alone and the color selection is nice.

Lotions/ Creams -Vichy - Lipidose Mains
Ryce_Chick 4/9/2003 2:01:00 AM
This hand cream isn't that moisturizing, though it does absorb fast. I would say this is good for the woman on the run that doesn't want to wait 10 minutes for her cream to absorb. But for a more deep conditioning treatment for the hands i wouldn't use this, but rather something more emollient.

Concealers -Lancome - Effacernes
Ryce_Chick 4/9/2003 1:59:00 AM
YES YES. This is the cover-all-your-uglies concealer that every girl needs. I use this daily on pimples, zits, under eyes, scars and anything i can imagine covering. It covers immaculately and stays put until you take it off. This is a must get for all girls with oilier skin types that find most concealers slide off.
