Cleansers -Burt's Bees - Radiance Facial Cleanser
CarmenGloria 4/12/2013 11:09:00 AM
I wouldnt consider this the best cleanser ever but there are some wonderful qualities about it. First of all the PUMP. which allows you to have the perfect amount of product and is also hygienic protection for your cleanser. Second NO BREAKOUTS. With my previous cleanser had some horrible breakouts. 3rd Your skin feels really smooth and it looks really healthy, It is a really complete moisturizer (as a cleanser of course) It is natural so no wicked ingredients BUT .... even though it is suppose to be a makeup remover it takes so much product to remove all the eye makeup and i usually end up using a second product. So i would buy it again but if you need it for makeup removal I would recommend something else.

Top/Base Coats -OPI - RapiDry Top Coat
CarmenGloria 3/5/2013 10:23:00 PM
I got this top coat before reading the reviews so i got really worried. Anyway I was determined to prove that it is a good top coat because it worked really well the first month...but now after two months i have to warn you DO NOT GET this product. As i said it works really well at the beginning but then it starts getting bubbles ...you can see them all over the brush and so you can sort of avoid them but not for long im afraid. I will not buy again it is a waste of money.

Polishes -OPI - You're Such A Budapest
CarmenGloria 3/4/2013 11:01:00 PM
I am very conflicted by this nail polish. I have to admit i LOVE OPI nail polishes but this one ...mmmm I dont know First of all i am madly in love with this colour...but not eveything is the colour, the formula is very very streaky and runny. It has a hint of shimmer which is so subtle and elegant that even people like me, who dont like shimmer on their nail polish would surely like it. I bought this one + cant find my czechbook for only $12 at JCPenney and the packaging is, as usual, excellent. Im going to say that i would not buy this again because the bad quality of the formula really makes it frustrating but again...if you are willing to deal with it IT IS a wonderful colour.

Polishes -OPI - Can't find my czechbook
CarmenGloria 3/1/2013 5:54:00 PM
So Finally i got "Cant find my czechbook" from the new EURO CENTRALE collection and i love it! The formula as most OPI nail polishes is wonderful. The colour looks really nice on my tan skin. I uploaded some pictures (not really good ones but..) and i think the colour in most pictures looks a little more on the blue side than it really is. This is a wonderful spring colour and i got 2 bottles (this one and you are such a budapest) for $12 . Perfect!

Treatments -Burt's Bees - Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream
CarmenGloria 1/24/2013 12:07:00 PM
This product is amazing. My cuticles are so soft after i put this on. So i think in terms of how good the product is there are no questions BUT....the smell is a little weird although you can only smell it if you have your nails like right next to your nose so it is ok anyway. There was one thing that i didnt like and that is why i gave it a 2 on the packaging quality, because it could be so hard to open because i have the tiny tin. but i would buy again for sure.

Deodorants -Tom's of Maine - Natural Anti-Perspirant and Deodorant
CarmenGloria 1/23/2013 10:15:00 AM
There is only one reason why i use deodorant...so i wont smell bad. This product works. It doesnt go smooth on your skin though but it does work. I bought this because i was trying to use something that wouldnt contain all the controversial parabens and aluminum and i was not disappointed. I bought this one because is also unscented so it doesnt mix with my parfum. it is a little more expensive than most deodorants but totally affordable and is also 2.25 OZ (64 g) so i think it is an excellent purchase. Would buy again? ABSOLUTELY!

Cleansers -Vichy - Essentielles Facial Cleanser
CarmenGloria 1/10/2013 2:35:00 PM
If you are looking for a simple effective cleanser i would try this. This cleanser foams easily and you don't need more than a tiny bit to clean your entire face. (i would say the size of a pea). The foam is dense but yet still fine and very gentle on your skin. I have sensitive skin and it worked perfectly. I usually use lotion + sunscreen + foundation and this cleanser have never disappointed me. It really washes away all the make up. You have to avoid the eye area cause it happened to me once and it really hurt. overall this product gave me a very clean feeling, it has a soft and refreshing smell, is cheap and since you only need a little bit it lasts a long time. I would definitely buy again since is also paraben free.

Moisturizers -Burt's Bees - Intense Hydration Night Cream with Clary Sage
CarmenGloria 1/9/2013 6:40:00 PM
This is a very rich cream but it is not greasy or heavy on your skin. After first applying the cream you might feel your skin tight but this only lasts a few minutes and then it feels just really moisturized. it has a really soft fresh smell. I got this cream for christmas and i can tell that after a few days my skin was softer and more silky even after spending this last week in arizona which is really dry. Since the absorption of this cream is good and is not greasy AT ALL, I am using it for day cream too. Another good thing about this cream is that doesnt contain parabens like most lotions do. The only thing that might turn into a bad thing is that it dries really fast so if you dont rub immediately it might become thick and hard to apply on your face. I would buy this cream for sure.

Polishes -OPI - Nailpolish in Pink-ing of You
CarmenGloria 12/31/2012 12:28:00 AM
Pinking of you is a soft creamy pink. It is opaque and also is the first OPI nail polish that disappoints me. The formula is too streaky. It took me 3 coats and i still wasn't able to make it even. I like the colour though. But i would definitely use it on my toes mostly. This is unfortunately something that i would not buy again because the formula is that of an inferior nail polish. I think if You really like this colour you should try to find something of better quality because this is not a good option.

Liquid -Vichy - Aera Teint Pure Fluid Foundation Finish Up to 12 Hour Wear
CarmenGloria 12/27/2012 3:48:00 PM
This foundation is just great! it looks so natural on my skin. I have very sensitive skin and it works perfectly. it lasts all day long and it makes my skin feels really soft and moisturized. I do think that is a little bit expensive but it is totally worth it. I would definitely buy again.

Makeup Brushes -E.L.F. - Blush Brush
CarmenGloria 12/27/2012 3:42:00 PM
Ok im not an expert but i do know how to apply blush and this brush does not do it! i have sensitive skin and it hurts yes it hurts! but the main problem for me is that the blush seems to stay in only one area after you apply and in order to spread it in a better way you have to use your fingers cause that works better than this brush. I bought it only because it was so cheap i will never buy anything from this line again.
