Treatments -Neutrogena - Clinical Facial Lifting Wrinkle Treatment Night
Barb2313 4/25/2010 7:21:00 AM
This stuff is AMAZING! The ion complex leaves your face and neck feeling and looking baby smooth!! The SPF 30 activating day cream is perfect for my oily skin - leaves it non-greasy, but gives me great protection from the sun here in South Florida. These two products are bought in the Neutrogena Clinicals kit together; use the ion complex first and then put on the day cream; the best thing of all is that foundation goes on and stays on beautifully over these two products...!!! It is rather pricey and the sizes/packaging could be more generous for what you pay, but this product is brand new so hopefully it will come down in price. Definitely my HG for a daily skin treatment!!!

Scrubs -Origins - Modern Friction
Barb2313 4/25/2010 7:12:00 AM
This is my HG for it's exfoliating effects!! My skin is smooth, shiny (in a good, dewy way) and tighter after using it. My skin is naturally blotchy and oily; if I regularly use Modern Friction at least twice a week, I receive mega comments on how nice my skin is. I have never experienced any smell with the product, and yes, my skin does come up a little red and sensitive after using - because it's an exfoliater (!!!) - so I use it at night, go to bed, and all is well in the morning! The only downfall is the steep price, but it lasts and lasts, so it's well worth it to me. PS - Be sure to put it on dry skin, work it in in a gentle, circular motion all over your face AND THEN add water after a bit, continuing to work in - this gives the best result!

Liquid -Neutrogena - Skin Clearing Oil-Free Makeup

If you have VERY oily skin as I do (plus I live in the horrible and humid South Florida weather during the summer months), this foundation is for you! For the most part, you will find that it does NOT slide off of your face by the end of the day. HOWEVER, if you put on a moisturizer with SPF in it as I do every day, be sure to check your skin every now and again for smearing...that's when it will slide off!!! OR when you wear sunglasses and take them off, and there are two huge smudgy marks where your Oakleys sat on your nose. This sounds like a negative review, but it really is positive. Having REALLY oily skin (my dermatologist says it's a blessing for aging - whatever, in the mean time I feel like I look like an oil slick), it is the best and cheapest foundation that I have found to do the trick. PS - No burning at all on my skin, even with the salicylic acid, and I have very sensitive skin!

Polishes -OPI - Cajun Shrimp
Barb2313 4/23/2010 6:18:00 PM
This is absolutely THE best color "red" ever! They make it in the OPI gel nail polish and it looks beautiful on both my fingers AND toes...I have received sooooo many compliments about the color - and btw, I am fair, light blonde, brown eyes...I would have never tried this color in a million years, saw it on a friend and I was hooked!!! It really is summery; a light red with hues of coral and pink, depending on the light - and it's amazing that this odd, but beautiful color looks perfect on my skin. Try it - you won't be disappointed!!!
