I have chapped lips all year. This product works really well for my chapped lips, but I stopped using it because I've read that it has ingredients that is addictive.

Treatments -Clean & Clear - Persagel 10

Works great for existing pimples. Will zap away pimples in 1-2 days. However, it will dry out the areas where it was applied. Also leaves the area flaky.

Moisturizers -Clinique - Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel
merryjane81 12/31/2008 3:13:00 PM
I have super dry cheeks, but very greasy t-zone. While the moisturizer worked okay for the t-zone area, it wasn't enough for my dry cheeks. Also, the gel doesn't absorb into the skin quickly, which is makes a good moisturizer good.

Skincare - Face -Clinique - 3 Step System

This didn't work for me at all. I would not repurchase. I would rather buy cleansers and moisturizers from the grocery store.

Primer/ Corrector -Smashbox - Photo Finish Primer
merryjane81 12/31/2008 3:07:00 PM
I love this primer! I've been using it since I was in my early twenties. I never put on make up without the primer. It leaves your skin feeling silky and make up (concealers, foundation, powder) applies easily. **EDIT** I removed a lippie: when the product is nearly gone (about 25% left), it becomes harder to spread across the face. Therefore, I end up using more product than usual towards the end.

Treatments -Biore - Pore Cleansing Strips - Nose

It gets some blackheads, but I think it's more effective to remove blackheads manually with a blackhead extractor.

Misc Beauty Tools -Shu Uemura - Eyelash Curler

I don't know what the big deal is with this eyelash curler. It didn't do anything special to my lashes.

Misc Beauty Tools -Clean & Clear - Oil Absorbing Sheets
merryjane81 12/31/2008 2:56:00 PM
I have been using this product since I was in high school (I'm 27 now). I would not purchase any other oil absorbing sheets. I works better than some of the department store brands like Shiseido. It removes oil/grease from the face without removing the make-up. I think it's a bit pricey, but it's worth it!

Scrubs -St. Ives - Apricot Scrub

Very inexpensive if you're looking for a cheap exfoliator. However, the granules are a bit much -- too harsh on the skin. I would not use this product everyday.
