I love this moisturizer! It leaves me feeling silky smooth all day - and that in itself is fantastic! I quite like the scent- not too overpowering and leavs a fresh scent on your skin, but doesn't interfere with your perfume.

Fragrances -Thierry Mugler - Angel

Got this as a gift from my DH and I really like the scent. This is definately a scent that works with your body chemistry, and doesn't smell the same in the bottle as it does on. It works really well with my body, I get complimented on it all the time (every time I wear it infact). Which I can't say about other fragrances... Would definately refill my star bottle when I finish it all up!

Treatments -Avene - Diacneal Acne Treatment [DISCONTINUED]
rated 4 of 5
Beauty_Box 9/6/2005 7:57:00 PM

I found this really helps smooth my skin surface. I have visible (to me) pores on my cheeks due to adolescent acne and oilyness. They have significantly reduced in size since I started using Diacneal (a little over 3 weeks now). Breakouts have noticeably subsided and the product is true to it's claims. Planning on getting pregnant soon though and am sad to see this having to be shelved during that time... Boo

I love the packaging of this product! It is a little Tall though to fit in my medicine cabinet... *sigh* I love the hold this gives packed with shine. The best hairspray I've used by far. Scent is pleasent and not too overpowering (your hair smells wonderful all night).

I love this product! My mom introduced it to me, she has LIMP, FLAT hair and with this stuff can achieve Volume and lift. I thought I'd try it out on my hair (has decent amount of volume already..) It does a splendid job at giving volume and smoothness at the same time! It is a HG hair product of mine. WOuldn't style without it.

Skincare - Face -Pro Activ - 3-Step System
rated 5 of 5
Beauty_Box 5/6/2005 1:47:00 PM

I love ProActiv !! I had tried this system when I was going through a really bad teenage acne Phase and It did very little. Recently a friend of mine told me she had started on it and it was working wonders for her (it was obvious, her skin was looking great!). So I opted to try it again... Needless to say, my skin has never looked better! I still suffer from the odd pimple (only one every month or so...) that is easily covered and leaves within 2-3 days. I am so happy as I am wearing less makeup and have so much more self confidance. I no longer NEED concealer!

Cleansers -RoC - PURIF-AC Purifying Cleanser
rated 5 of 5
Beauty_Box 12/16/2004 12:10:00 PM

HUGE RAVE! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this cleanser. A tiny drop will cleanse your entire face, so it should last quite a long time. The scent is very pleasent and not strong at all, a little medicinal, but I like it! Removes ALL my makeup and leaves my face perfectly clean (not dry, but not oily in the least). I HIGHLY reccomend this to anyone with Acne or acne prone skin.

Treatments -RoC - Purif AC Blemish Correcting Emulsion
rated 5 of 5
Beauty_Box 12/16/2004 12:00:00 PM

I have been using this product for 3 days now and have already noticed a huge difference in my skin. It is non-drying, but does provide a nice matte finish and significantly keeps my oilies at bay during the day. I have also noticed that the texture of my skin has changed for the better, it is more smooth and even. I'll post an updated review after using this for a few weeks. Here's hoping this keeps up the good job!

Fragrances -Kenneth Cole - Kenneth Cole 'BLACK' for women
rated 5 of 5
Beauty_Box 9/21/2004 9:48:00 AM

I love this scent. It is so light and beautiful. not at all what I was expecting when I first smelled it. The name implies Dark, Sensual Seductive... This is not at all that. It is light airy but has a bit of mystery to it. Great summer fragrance that is lovely for day or evening. Will Re-purchase.

I hated this stuff. Apart for the smell, it is Aweful. Didn't cleanse enough and left my hair limp and lifeless... 2 thumbs down

Self Tanners -L'Oreal - Sublime Bronze Tinted Lotion in Deep
rated 2 of 5
Beauty_Box 6/28/2004 12:58:00 PM

Let me just say that I knew this was a BIG mistake before I even put this on. It gave me a glow alright, if you like looking like a very healthy ORANGE. I am bright orange, and this dried my skin out so bad that it looks like i have scales. This is the worst tanner I have used. Will not be re-purchasing.

This stuff is FANTASTIC. It makes my VERY breakout prone skin look flawless and doesn't cause any skin issues with me. This is a HG for me. The coverage is excellent, yet so very natural. Love it love it love it!

Sunscreen -Neutrogena - Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 30
rated 5 of 5
Beauty_Box 6/17/2004 4:40:00 PM

I am VERY acne-prone, almost every sunscreen I have tried has caused me to breakout, EXCEPT for this one. It is great for oily skinned gals, as it has a really nice matte finish. I really have to make sure I have no flakies on my skin as it does make them more obvious if I am wearing concealer or foundation. Other than that ithis is an A one product. I LOVE it.

I LOVE this mask! It is the only one I have found out there that I can dab on a spot, leave it on overnight and VOILA, the next morning my pesky pimple has either COMPLETELY vanished or considerably went down. I wish it came in a tube (sanitary reasons) otherwise Great great great product!!

I am so happy I could cry! This cleanser alongside a few other products has made my skin COMPLETELY breakout free (even my TOTM pimples are non-existant). I used to have aweful skin, especially on my cheeks and chin... No more, I am in love!
