Moisturizers -Bobbi Brown - Overnight Cream
chanelmontes 1/5/2008 11:49:00 PM
Exceptional night cream that actually HEALS the skin as you sleep. This is the only moisturizer that relieved the redness in my cheeks. The quality of this product is outstanding always leaving my face perfectly hydrated and smooth without being greasy or shiny. I was amazed that BB had such high quality skincare since I also own the eye cream and face base and LOVE them as well. I made up my mind that I'm officially switching over ALL of my skincare to BB. I recommend every women who wants spectacular results to do the same.

Lip Gloss -Bobbi Brown - Brightening Lip Gloss- Pink
chanelmontes 1/4/2008 8:48:00 PM
This is the only lip gloss I have ever used that was actually still on my lips after me drinking 2 bottles of water in a time span of 3 hours. Incredible, huh? Staying power aside, the color is also amazing as it made my lips look brightened and shiny. My only gripe is the price for the amount of product you get. Otherwise, I will repurchase since I love going out at night and hate reapplying my lip gloss over and over.....and over and over..... :)

Mascara -Bobbi Brown - No Smudge Mascara
chanelmontes 1/4/2008 8:37:00 PM
Bless BB! I finally found a mascara that doesn't smudge or leave flakes underneath my eye area. I was surprised that other brands such as Chanel, Estee Lauder, and Lancome had mascaras I tried that were absolutely terrible leaving me looking like a Panda by the end of the day. This mascara blows all others out of the water for actually (YES!) staying on my lashes all day. I can now rest as I finally found my HG mascara. UPDATE 10/4/08: I just want to add that I recently missed a Coldplay concert by getting the date mixed up and literally cried my eyes out for an hour. Well, I was wearing this mascara and after I was done crying, I noticed it didn't smudge the tiniest bit!! My face looked horrible ( red and wet) but my mascara was still completely in tact!

Eye Shadow -Bobbi Brown - Long Wear Cream
chanelmontes 1/4/2008 8:31:00 PM
With Bobbi Brown, everyone should know that you will always get high quality makeup. This product is definitely no exception. She has received numerous well-received awards for this product's long-lasting quality with absolutely no creasing, fading or smudging. Not to mention, all of the colors are amazing. I currently own Burnished and Bellini and can't wait to try others. Application is fast and easy. The best cream shadow in the market BAR NONE.

Eye Shadow -Bobbi Brown - Long Wear Cream Eyeshadow in Bellini
chanelmontes 1/4/2008 8:19:00 PM
Perfect pale peachy/pink color that instantly makes my eye area look naturally refreshed and brightened. I either wear it alone or just under my brow bone with Burnished on my lid. With this cream shadow, I don't ever have to look like I tried too hard to look beautiful. Bobbi Brown is a queen at knowing how to accentuate a women's beauty without over doing it.

Eye Shadow -Bobbi Brown - Long Wear Cream Eyeshadow in Burnished
chanelmontes 1/4/2008 8:13:00 PM
Gorgeous bronzy/brown/gold color that accentuates my brown eyes beautifully. I put this on my eyelids and use Bellini under my brown bone. Bobbi Brown is a genius at creating eye shadow colors that actually look natural and absolutely fabulous on everyone.

Concealers -Prescriptives - Camouflage Cream 
chanelmontes 1/4/2008 7:49:00 PM
Didn't work great as a concealer as it never blended into my skin to where my face looked extremely blotchy. Then, I tried using it as an eye shadow base to try and get some use out of the money I spent on this concealer. This was an even worse idea because not only did it not allow me to properly blend my eye shadow, but you guessed it, it also caused my eyelids to look blotchy. Horrible product. I threw it in the trash.

Eye Shadow -Bobbi Brown - Cream Shadow Stick -Vanilla
chanelmontes 1/4/2008 7:41:00 PM
Fabulous product! For over 10 years, I've been using eye shadow bases from different cosmetic brands but found nothing extraordinary. After seeing rave reviews, I thought I would try this wonderful product. This is positively the BEST eye shadow base leaving eyelids super soft and silky smooth for eye shadow application. My eye shadow has NEVER looked better. The best part is that it comes in a stick so application is extremely clean and simple. My search is finally over!

Scrubs -St. Ives - Apricot Scrub
chanelmontes 12/26/2007 2:15:00 PM
This is the only face scrub that actually made a positive difference on my face leaving it noticeably smooth without irritation. I've tried several, more expensive ones before, but this is the only face scrub I will ever use. Trust me, I'm a woman that loves to buy high-end skin care products for the "quality" but sometimes going cheaper is actually better.

Tinted Moisturizer -Bobbi Brown - Tinted Moisturizer [REFORMULATED]
chanelmontes 12/26/2007 1:58:00 PM
I cannot believe that I haven't came across using tinted moisturizers before. This is positively the best makeup product I have ever bought. I have always had trouble with trying to find the right foundation because I hate looking like I've tried too hard or my face looking a different color than my neck. This stuff, however, is soooo natural looking giving just the right amount of coverage I need to feel sexy, confident and beautiful. Not only that, it's really easy to blend (cannot stress that enough) and doesn't leave any streak marks like regular foundation can do. Just dust with some loose powder and I'm ready to go. This product is definitely worth the hefty price tag.

Lotions/ Creams -Philosophy - Soul Owner
chanelmontes 12/24/2007 1:57:00 PM
This foot cream worked horrible for me. It burned my feet to the point where they were stinging (like a sunburn) so bad and turned bright red in between the toes. I tried scrubbing the lotion off completely but the stinging continued for a couple of days. I have smooth feet to begin with so that's probably why I experienced this. I recommend this to anyone with extreme problem feet as it will definitely kill off the dead layers of skin without puncturing into a healthy layer of cell tissue like it did me.

Scrubs -Origins - Modern Friction
chanelmontes 12/24/2007 1:45:00 PM
I bought Modern Friction for the Body and I have to say that this stuff is absolutely amazing! It's a body scrub that somehow forms into a soapy lather. It's like scrub and soap in one! It scrubs perfectly as for the first time after using a body scrub I noticed my arms and legs were glowing. It brought a huge smile to my face. Definitely worth the price tag. Pampering myself was never so enjoyable.

Moisturizers -Bobbi Brown - Vitamin Enriched Face Base
chanelmontes 12/24/2007 1:05:00 PM
This stuff is incredible! I used this product due to seeing the rave reviews on MUA and was completely floored. This is what every woman needs to put on before their makeup. It leaves skin unbelievably smooth, even toned and completely hydrated without being greasy or oily. I find the scent to be refreshing. I now can skip a step as I'm dumping my regular primer.

Eye Makeup Remover -Clinique - Take The Day Off Eye Makeup Remover
chanelmontes 12/24/2007 12:05:00 PM
Really great eye makeup remover! It's extremely gentle yet somehow manages to take off ALL my eye makeup in just one swipe. It does leave the eye area a LITTLE oily, but isn't that better than leaving your eye area dry, red and irritated? Will be buying again. Update 10/11/08: I will NOT be buying this product again. I noticed after a while that it does give me raccoon eyes. I actually found a drugstore brand that doesn't do that but is also more effective and a lot cheaper.

Eye Makeup Remover -Clinique - Rinse-Off Eye Makeup Solvent
chanelmontes 12/24/2007 11:54:00 AM
This is the worst eye makeup remover ever! It doesn't take off eye makeup completely unless you work at it for a long time. And even so, it also leaves a disgusting residue that forces me to just end up using another eye makeup remover. It is not gentle at all. Do not waste your money!
