Crème -Cover Girl - AquaSmooth SPF15 Make-up
JAREDISAAC 4/17/2011 10:41:00 AM
Love,love, love this. I have tried many foundations looking for the one that would compliment my skin tone while looking natural and not over cakey. This product did it. I am not sure about the staying power though. I seem to need to touch it up at least once a day but for now I think I will continue to use this despite the touch ups! Good job Cover Girl.

Love love love this product. I have tried numerous moisturizers and this one is great. I love the consistency, the way it feels on my skin., the way my skin absorbs it. No sticky feeling just pure moisture. I am not sure if it is my imagination but my skin LOOKS better since I have been using this. Will definately repurchase

Blush -Revlon - Cream Blush in Rosy Glow
JAREDISAAC 6/27/2010 12:45:00 AM
The color and consistency of this blush is great. Love the color on my cheeks and looks very natural. I am quite fair skin toned and find alot of blushes to be too heavy for me. This one give me a great glow and will continue to use as long as it is available. Great job Revlon.

Shampoo -Paul Mitchell - Color Protect Daily Shampoo
JAREDISAAC 4/2/2010 3:32:00 PM
I cant believe all the negative reviews of this product. I bought both the shampoo and conditioner and love both. I think this is one of the best shampoos I have ever used ! I wash my hair about every second day and with other shampoos have noticed that my hair is quite dry. Quite the opposite with this shampoo as I find that my hair feels and looks healthier using the shampoo. I will continue to us. Very happy.

Liquid -Maybelline - Instant Age Rewind foundation
JAREDISAAC 7/18/2009 12:44:00 AM
I am on the fence with this product. I bought the nude color and although it seems a bit yellowy, it appears to be a nice neutral color on my skin. My only complaint so far is it might be a bit too oily for my skin as my t zone looks very oily by day end. I was using Intervene foundation before and the only reason I decided to switch was it was a bit too dark for my skin tone . But I didnt have the t zone "issues" that I have with this one. Will wait a little while longer and decide . UPDATE: BROKE OUT SOMETHING AWFUL. THIS WAS GARBAGE! I am going back to my EA Intervene.

Lip Liners -Annabelle - lipliner in Natural Rose
JAREDISAAC 7/18/2009 12:39:00 AM
Excellent lip liner! Color is great . I use the lip liner along with a clear gloss to make the gloss a bit more colorful, and it's perfect. Have tried the other shades made by Anabelle but always seem to come back to the natural rose . The color is so pretty. Will definately repurchase.

Self Tanners -Olay - Touch of Sun - overnight
JAREDISAAC 7/11/2009 8:06:00 PM
This review is not for the overnight touch of sun, just the regular. I usually purchase fair-medium as I am quite pale and have not really been pleased with any self tanner I have used. I picked up a bottle of the self tanner in a medium/dark skin tone just to see what happens. Not only did I love this self tanner cuz the smell was great but the coloring was also great. Very natural looking and I am very pale. I tend to use it for about 3 days, which gives me a nice healthy glow, then give myself a day or so break,, cuz I don't want it to get too orangy. So far, so good. I had someone ask me if I was "tanning" the other day at work. I had to laugh when they asked me that! So far, this is the best self tanner I have found.

Self Tanners -L'Oreal - Sublime GLOW
JAREDISAAC 5/21/2009 12:07:00 AM
All I can say is what a horrible product. Way too runny. It's hard to get any colour out of this product and when you do finally get colour, its way to orange . The only positive thing as far as I am concerned is the smell was okay compared to other self tanners. Will definately not repurchase.

Self Tanners -Neutrogena - Sun Fresh
JAREDISAAC 5/20/2009 11:57:00 PM
Overall, I would say this is a very good self tanning product and I have tried many. I have very very fair skin and find that self tanners tend to look either too orange or just way too dark for me. I bought the fair/medium and was quite impressed. The colour is very natural looking, product dries super fast, and the smell is not as bad as some of those tanners out there. I have alternated between self tanners in the past while and always seem to come back to this one. Must be a good reason for that....... For now, I will stick with this one.

Liquid -Revlon - SPA Age Defying Foundation [DISCONTINUED]
JAREDISAAC 4/27/2009 9:37:00 PM
I read the raving reviews on MUA and when out to purchase this product. At first I applied it, not with the brush but with my fingertips. Coverage was minimal, similar to a light tinted moisturizer. It was okay but not enough coverage for me. Also, when I look at my "oilier" parts of my face during the day, they appear to be oilier. It's okay for a medium priced foundation, but I think I will go back to my Intervene .

Lipstick -Revlon - Revlon Matte-Pink Pout
JAREDISAAC 4/16/2009 1:54:00 AM
I have been searching for a matte lipstick in pink, and came across this one. Glides on smooth . At first when I put it on my lips I did not like the colour as it seemed rather pale and I tend to wear shades that are a bit darker. I keep putting it on and giving it another try and it seems to be getting better and better. I think you just gotta get used to the colour. You either like it or you don't.

Blush -Elizabeth Arden - Cheekcolor Pink Glow
JAREDISAAC 12/21/2008 1:45:00 AM
Beautiful pink color blush for my pale complexion. Doesn't have much staying power on me, so I find I have to reapply it often. Color is great, texture nice, and cost is $35.00 . Can't tell you how many blushes I have purchased for $8.00 or $10.00 that I bought home and are sitting in my cupboard collecting dust. This one I really like. No dust on this one. For all these reasons.... will definately repurchase.

Treatments -Elizabeth Arden - Ceramide Gold Ultra Restorative Capsules
JAREDISAAC 11/5/2008 10:18:00 PM
At first I loved this product but then I started breaking out BIG TIME. At first I thought that my skin had changed somehow and my moisturizer was making me break out, but then realized I had not even thought that it might be these capsules so ..... I stopped using them for a few days and my skin cleared up. I have oily/acne prone skin so I should have figured something so "oily" wouldnt work well on my skin. I could see this being a good product for people with dry skin as it really does add moisture. Apart from breaking out, I did like the look and feel of my skin while using it. You really have to try it for yourself. Unfortunately, it is not a product for me and will not repurchase

Foundations -Elizabeth Arden - Intervene
JAREDISAAC 9/23/2008 12:13:00 AM
I think I am like the majority of people on MUA as I too love this foundation. I am quite fair skinned and the 02 soft shell is as close of a match as I can get, although could use a touch lighter. I find that if I apply less, the color seems more natural and not as dark than if I apply too much. I have somewhat oily skin and usually find that foundation doesn't last too long on me, but low and behold, Intervene held up to the test. I live in a climate that is very humid in the summer, and found no problems at all. A bit costly but one pump is all you need, and this usually lasts all day . So far, this is the best foundation for me. Who knows, I might read another review on here and decide to try something else , but for now, I think I will stick with Intervene.

Blush -Jane - Blushing Orchid Shimmer
JAREDISAAC 9/9/2008 12:45:00 AM
Great color blush. It has a nice shimmer to it, not too glittery. . Staying power isn't great but I have oily skin so that might be part of the reason. Will definately repurchase.
