Fragrances -Issey Miyake - Le Feu d'Issey Light
Myaspace 11/15/2005 8:49:00 AM
This is the only perfume I use recently. It is not very ''Light'' to me, it is just ''Right''. This goes very well with casual look, feminine look, boyish look....any look actually.

Sunscreen -DDF - Organic Sunblock Spf 30 [DISCONTINUED]
Myaspace 11/13/2005 10:06:00 AM
UPDATE: (June,2006) This is rather drying. I have to put some moisturizing TM or foundation over. (DDF has a moisturizing version, but it contains benzon which I am allergic.)
I love DDF products. I also used DDF matte sunscreen. I am allergic to oxy-benzon and avobenzon. That is why I choose DDF. (from DDF website) Micronized Titanium Dioxide Micronized Zinc Oxide VItamins A,C and E Alpha Lipoic Acid Co-Q10 Genistein Glutathione Grape Seed Extract N-Acetyl-Cysteine Pyconol Zinc

Treatments -Elizabeth Arden - Eight Hour Cream
Myaspace 11/7/2005 12:32:00 PM
Great as lipgloss during winter!
5 days ago, when I got up in the morning, I noticed that around my eyes became red and very painful especially upper lids. I remember I started to heat more and the room was dry, plus I did not put rich cream before I went to bed. Actually I forgot to moisturize well at that night. My eyes got puffy and painful for days. I put cortizon cream, olive oil based moisturizer, I put R3P Dr.Brandt face cream....I did everything I could think of. nothing. 5 days later, around my eyes were still reddish,I decided to put an eye cream and put the eight hour cream over. I am all fine now. The smell reminds me of a hospital, and I found it is bit greasy. But now I am using it and appreciate. But I got results!

Moisturizers -Weleda - Skin Food
Myaspace 10/14/2005 7:12:00 PM
I should have bought it much much earlier. I knew Weleda had great products, I just did not pay attention. The skinfood is so good, so smooth on my face and the smell is so nice. Feels so good on my face, hands, everywhere on my body. I would keep repurchasing it until I find better ones. I recommend to everyone!!!

Lip Treatments -Blistex - Medicated Lip Ointment

This stuff is very good especially during winter. Probably one of the best you can buy at ordinary pharmacies or grocery stores. Good price too.

Lip Liners -Giorgio Armani - Silk Lip Pencil #4
Myaspace 10/6/2005 12:53:00 PM
Very creamy and soft. Better than MAC lipliner. I prefer natural look and this shade shows a lot on me, I only use it occasianally. Quality is very nice but I hate the price. I am not sure if I purchase again though...

Liquid -Giorgio Armani - Luminous Silk Foundation
Myaspace 10/6/2005 12:49:00 PM
I almost purchased it. I was willing. But I did not really like the finish look. Too silicony. Probably great for photo shoot. At the counter, MA told me I should mix with fluid of bronze color to show more glowy look. Too bad but I did not like it. I wanted to like it though... I prefer using MAC Prep+Prime skin use lightly and put NARS copacabada then, bit of foundation or powder over it.

Cleansers -Cetaphil - Gentle Skin Cleanser
Myaspace 10/4/2005 10:34:00 AM
Acnes around my temple, redness around my nose, bigger pore beside nose and cheek, dryness around my lips. Those conditions are gone! I suffered for a while and did not know what to do. I just realized I started to use this product.That was only change I did recently. I've been using this product for a few weeks, I see difference! I have to admit, I have been using other cleansers which were too strong, dried me out,caused unbalance PH and ended up having a horrible combo skin. I have to say, my acnes around my temple were gone, I had dry skin, but now soft and smooth. I really love this cleanser. I use it when I take a bath at night and when I take a shower in the morning. I have to take off makeup with other products before because this is not the product to remove makeup.

Brows -Shiseido - eyebrow pencil
Myaspace 9/22/2005 10:53:00 PM
I am using this pencil for a long time. Shiseido is one of the best Eyebrow pencils I ever tried. However, I won't repurchase since I know I can find the same quality or better elsewhere for reasonable price.

Cleansers -Shiseido - The Skincare Extra Gentle Cleansing Foam
Myaspace 9/22/2005 10:51:00 PM
If I have to recommend one product from the Skincare line, I would choose this cleansing foam. Beacuse their other products such as daily moisturizer was somewhat mediocre, lotion was not very impressing.

Lotions/ Creams -L'Occitane - 20% Shea Butter Hand Cream
Myaspace 9/16/2005 9:23:00 AM
I got this free. I am not crazy about the smell. One day, I went to an African store and I bought tons of Shea butter for $2. Since then, for me in my mind, L'Occitane is ripe off. Anyways, the store I went, the clerk was so snobbish and that is why I guess, I don't like L'Occitane. It is not worth buying, but as a gift, L'Occitane is nice.

Shampoo -Neutrogena - Anti-Residue Shampoo
Myaspace 9/15/2005 10:44:00 PM
I use this product for my hair brushes, makeup brushes, sponges. Cleans very well. I recommend to everyone. For my hair, my hair dries too much and I did not really like it. I won't use it for my hair since I am not putting any hair cream, gel, mousse or any other hair products. I don't feel I need it. If I have to use it, then, I would mix with water and make lots of foam in my hands before putting my hair.

Makeup Brushes -Sephora - Retractable Blush Brush
Myaspace 9/15/2005 9:55:00 AM
I love it so much. I use it everyday. For the price, this is a great buy. I am not certain of the quality of sephora bruses in general, but this one is acceptable. I like the packaging. Mine does not shed much.
