Treatments -Lancome - Visionnaire [LR 2412 4%]

I am reviewing a sample size tube that lasted a week. My skin feels oily after applying. As I live in the sub-tropics I could only use at night or it would be uncomfortable. There is no perfume smell. Big plus for me. In the morning my skin is smooth and silky feeling. I am thinking of giving it a proper go (depending on price in Australia) when they have a GWP.

Misc Beauty Tools -Shiseido - Eyelash Curler

I have had no problem with mine. Does the job without pulling out my lashes. Gives me a great curl. Had mine a year and still looks like brand new.

Misc Beauty Tools -Unlisted Brand - Ped Egg
sharontracy 10/19/2009 2:19:00 AM
I have very dry feet and find that I can remove a lot of dry skin quickly with the Ped Egg. I then however use other tools to complete the pedicure as I do not use the emery paper on the Ped Egg. My only complaint is I wish it held all the dead skin properly within the egg as I always end up making a mess. For some reason this product amuses my cat who always sits and watches me use it. Lol.

Misc Beauty Tools -LUSH - LUSH - Whole Store
sharontracy 10/19/2009 2:10:00 AM
I recieved a Lush gift pack and found the perfume so overpowering I had to put it outside on the deck til I could give it to someone who found the scent attractive. I was so sad as it looked so pretty. So if you are sensitive to perfume this is a brand where you need to check the item personally rather than web shop.

Misc Beauty Tools -Ecotools - Lash & Brow Groomer
sharontracy 10/19/2009 2:06:00 AM
This is great product for the price. It is simple, effective and does the job. Lash Groomer Side: I normally use a Tweeserman comb as I have more than average lashes and clump whatever mascara I use. But when I am in a hurry, I prefer this Ecotool as the Tweeserman has sharp prongs and needs to be used carefully. Brow Groomer: Effective even with my stubborn brows. I've had mine several months now and no bristles have shed. I am predicting it will be long lasting. Looks attractive too.

Moisturizers -Dermalogica - Active Moist
sharontracy 9/7/2008 1:36:00 AM
This is a very light moisturiser. It does not moisturise my skin effectively. Despite a months worth of use, my skin is still dry particularly on my chin and forehead. I will use it up but will not repurchase. You could certainly find a better product than than this, even at drugstore prices.

Scrubs -Dermalogica - Skin Prep Scrub
sharontracy 9/6/2008 8:20:00 PM
My current HG. Does exactly what a scrub should do. My skin feels and looks better after I use this product. It has also removed the small blackheads I had on my chin. It is pleasant to use and easy to rinse off. Scent is fine. The only downside to this product is cost.

Moisturizers -Dr. Brandt - Infinite Moisture
sharontracy 9/6/2008 8:12:00 PM
This is the most perfumed skin care product I have ever used. The smell was so awful I had to go wash my face. Even my husband, who isn't the most observant when it comes to beauty products, said what is that dreadful smell. Luckily I was given a large sample of this so didn't waste my own money. I will not use any more of the sample.

Fragrances -Christian Dior - Miss Dior

This perfume is lovely. Unfortuately, it doesn't last on me more than hour. Sob. I've not had this problem with perfume before. I put it down to skin chemistry and bad luck.

Polishes -OPI - Mauving to Manitoba
sharontracy 9/3/2008 10:00:00 AM
I love this colour. On my pale skin, with yellow undertones, it looks dramatic but still suitable to wear on most occasions. Needs only two coats to match the bottle colour.

Polishes -OPI - Not So Bora Bora-ing Pink
sharontracy 9/3/2008 9:55:00 AM
A pretty colour that would be suitable to wear anywhere. This goes very well with my pale, with yellow undertoned, skin. I ticked I would buy again but I'm yet to ever finish a nail polish. I guess I have more colours then I really need.

Polishes -Rimmel - 60 Seconds Nail Polish
sharontracy 9/3/2008 9:46:00 AM
I don't like this product for several reasons. It says on the back "Perfect coverage in one coat" and I painted on two coats and it's still streaky and too sheer. The colour is also way too frosty for my taste. Reminds me of 80s lipstick. I'll try the product again without my usual basecoat to see if that is disagreeing with this polish. I'll update if I change my opinion. My colour is 840 Peaches and Cream.

Lip Treatments -Burt's Bees - Beeswax Lip Balm
sharontracy 8/31/2008 4:02:00 AM
I bought this lip balm along with a lot of other Burt's Bees products when I was holidaying in the United States. I liked this Beeswax Lip Balm and used it daily until it recently run out. Burt's Bees are now easily available in Australia in David Jones but I won't be rebuying this product. My husband hated it when he kissed me wearing this product. He didn't mind the Burt's Bees Honey Lip Balm though.

Lip Treatments -Palmers - Cocoa Butter Dark Chocolate & Peppermint Lip Butter
sharontracy 8/31/2008 3:55:00 AM
I'm a lip balm junkie and have many high, mid and low end products. I bought this one after reading the reviews here at MUA. This Palmers product is my current HG and I have been using it daily for over a month. I love the scent and the fact you don't have to dip your fingers into a pot. It is a hundred times better than my more expensive Dermalogica Climate Control Lip Treatment. Plus my husband is happy to kiss me when I'm wearing this. He hated kissing me when I wore Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm. It's cheap so it's worth a go if you have try lips.

Lotions/ Creams -OPI - Avoplex
sharontracy 8/31/2008 3:37:00 AM
I got this for free when I bought two OPI nail polishes. Pros: Only has a mild scent. Hands do not feel greasy after use. Cons: My hands do not feel moisturised after use. Been using it for three weeks and no improvement to my dry skin. I use this three times of day to try and relieve the dryness of my skin. My last product I only applied once a day. I'll use this up but I would never buy it again.
