Highlighters -Christian Dior - Skinflash
rated 4 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 9:23:00 PM

I was very pleased w/this product. I use this on needed areas instead of foundation allover. However, if you have serious dark circles or imperfections, it isn't the best concealer. I know it's supposed to be a highlighter, but I use it as a concealer. One gripe I have is that the color slightly turns grayish under my eyes after a long day/night. But it isn't enough so that I would stop using or repurchase this product.

Cleansers -Cetaphil - Gentle Skin Cleanser
rated 3 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 9:19:00 PM

Unless you have extremely dry or sensitive skin, I would not recommend this product for you. This is a very gentle & creamy cleanser, & if you like the squeaky clean feeling after cleansing, then you will be disappointed.

Lotions/ Creams -Aveeno - Creamy Moisturizing Oil
rated 4 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 9:17:00 PM

This product really moisturizes well. I would recommend for people with normal to dry skin. However, I found it very expensive (about $10/ bottle). The smell is not too pleasant either. I think you could achieve similar results w/the Johnson & Johnson's creamy baby oil, which is a lot cheaper.

Treatments (Eye) -Olay - Total Effects Eye Transforming Cream
rated 4 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 9:14:00 PM

This is a great eye cream for people who are buying their first eye cream. The light reflectors are very flattering, & the formula is very light. It has noticeably diminished my puffiness, but hasn't done too much for my dark circles.

Lipstick -Clinique - Almost Lipstick in Almost Blush
rated 4 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 9:12:00 PM

I am asian w/light to medium skin. This color really flatters my skintone, and gives you an enhanced natural look. The only negative thing is that it's not very moisturizing & doesn't have great staying power. However, overall a good buy.

Lip Treatments -Neutrogena - Lip nutrition - passionfruit boosting balm [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 9:10:00 PM

Very moisturizing, and the color is very subtle while delivering good gloss. Your lips do feel softer after application. Only gripe is that it's in a pot so you have to use your fingers to apply.

Lips -Neutrogena - MoistureShine tinted lip balm in Nude #40 [DISCONTINUED]
rated 3 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 9:06:00 PM

Although the color is very flattering, the moisture does not last on the lips. I found that just a few minutes after applying, my lips feel very dry & therefore have to reapply. Has no staying power.

Toners -Shiseido - White Lucent Brightening Balancing Softener Enriched
rated 4 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 9:03:00 PM

This product is a bit pricey, but I believe it does a good job of softening & brightening. However, I think you can get a good enough softener for a cheaper price.

Moisturizers -DHC - Olive Virgin Oil
rated 5 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 9:01:00 PM

A great moisturizer. During the winter, I use a few drops on top of my regular cream moisturizer. During the summer, you can use it alone over your toner/softener. It also works great on skin rashes. Even though it's an oil, still very light while gives great moisture. Face feels softer.

Masks -DHC - Mineral Mask
rated 4 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 8:59:00 PM

This is clay mask that cleans out your pores. You only need a little product which covers the whole face. And the mask only needs 10 minutes to absorb. I notice the effects immediately. My skin looks clearer, fresher, & feels cleaner. At $30/bottle, a bit pricey. I waited until it finally went on sale.

Mascara -Christian Dior - Diorshow Mascara
rated 4 of 5

This mascara really fattens up your lashes & makes them noticeable. The brush really grabs all your lashes. This is one of the best mascaras I have tried.

Scrubs -Aveeno - Skin Brightening Daily Scrub
rated 4 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 8:53:00 PM

This scrub is very gentle, yet does the job. However, if you prefer a deeper more abrasive scrub, I do not recommend this product. This product would be best for someone with not many skin trouble or sensitive skin.

Cleansers -Shiseido - White Lucent Brightening Cleansing Foam
rated 5 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 8:51:00 PM

Just a little bit. Half a pea size is all it takes to create a luxurious foam. My face feels very clean afterwards. The smell is pleasant also.

Cleansers -DHC - Deep Cleansing Oil
rated 5 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 8:48:00 PM

This cleanser removes all traces of makeup & dirt on your face. Does not require a separate eye makeup remover. Very convenient as the oil if water soluble. Although it is a little pricey, it lasts me a long time. I buy multiple bottles when DHC has it on sale.

Treatments -Pantene - Pro-V Restoratives Time Renewal Replenishing Mask ] [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5
Candacetyk 6/11/2007 8:45:00 PM

A superior conditioner. Adds a lot of moisture, softness, and sheen. A very good hair mask for a low price. If you have really dry hair or heat style your hair frequently, I would definitely recommend!
