Haven't used this but if you are acne-prone, oil or sensitive, AVOID. It has "Isopropyl Myristate", thats a very comedogenic ingredient.

This is a review for the Cover Fx pressed mineral foundation. BEWARE if you are acne prone, the SECOND ingredient is "Ethylhexyl Palmitate" a comedogenic ingredient. I break out everysingle time I use this to my annoyance. Otherwise a very beautiful powder, cover fx HAD to put a comedogenc ingredient in a foundation for sensitive skin. Shame

Toners -Bliss Labs - Daily detoxifying facial toner

I like this. Its moisturizing, gets off effectively whatever residue is still left on my skin after cleansing, and I like the fact it has Sodium Hyaluronate, Glycerin, & rose water but NO alcohol. Its not the MILDEST toner out there, but its pretty nice, hydrating and works for my sensitive, dehydrated, finicky acne-prone skin. Very happy with it. -LOVE the pump bottle-

Cleansers -Vichy - Purete Thermal Sensitive-Dry Milk Cleanser
rated 5 of 5
Juno77 1/19/2013 9:47:00 PM

I really like this cleansing milk. It removes my makeup and sunscreen, its very easy to spread and massage, doesn't have a strong fragrance imho, and its mild enough I can use it to take off my eyeshadow. Leaves my skin feeling comfortable, not tight and dry like with foaming cleansers. To my budget it is expensive, but I bought it INSTEAD of the Clarins cleansing milk, which is about $30 US, so it was a better deal. I think its a good replacement, though I prefer the Clarin's smell. I would recommend to anyone dealing with a sensitive, dehydrated, acne-prone skin like mine. Its affordable, mild and effective. Thumbs up :) **EDIT** This is a wipe off cleanser. The users saying it doesnt clean enough, may just be rinsing it with water. It IS a cleansing milk.

Lipstick -Revlon - ColorBurst Lip Butter - Brown Sugar
rated 5 of 5
Juno77 1/7/2013 8:40:00 AM

Love this shade. Most of the time I want to wear SOMETHING on my lips that enhances but isnt too much. This fits the bill. I have a skintone similar to Freida Pinto, around NC 40-NC 42, I would say I have yellow-olive undertones. My bottom lip is 2 tones and this lippie gives a balm gloss in a perfect brown nude color. Very neutral and natural. Doesnt dry my lips out, or splits them like MAC lipsticks do (seriously why would a lip product make your lips split WTH). Awesome formula.

This product makes my skin look so beautiful, flawless, glowy and perfect... it diffuses wrinkles and gives color to my skin... But it breaks me out!!! WHY! It is otherwise an absolutely gorgeous, handy foundation-like product. But this breaks me out everywhere. I used it today, and I just washed it off, I have new pimples in my forehead, chin and cheeks. That sucks :(

Moisturizers -Cetaphil - Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF15
rated 3 of 5
Juno77 5/3/2012 8:53:00 AM

I have been using this daily for 3 weeks, just a pea size amount (to not compromise skin by coating it too much). Moisturizes nicely, no smell, a little sun protection. As long as I didn'tt put too much on my skin it didn't look shiny/greasy. But it is clogging my pores. Not a lot, but it is. I have clogged pores under my eyes, nose, chin. If it wasn't for that this would be great, because it feels so gentle and creamy. If you are not acne-prone, or have dry skin, you may be able to give this a try. But sadly, not for me. I guess ill have to go back to protecting my skin with serums, and perhaps Clinique City Block.

Lipstick -Wet 'n' Wild - Megashield Lip Color SPF 15

These are so creamy. Its a shame they are so frosty. I got a pink and a copper. They feel better than ANY of my lipsticks, including High end. They glide on, like a balm. BUT the frostyness is such a turnoff. It makes them fade weird.

Sunscreen -La Roche Posay - Anthelios 50 Mineral Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid
rated 2 of 5
Juno77 2/6/2012 6:36:00 PM

I liked it the first 2 days.. That was it. The texture is somewhat gritty, and it gives me white face. I liked that the finish was matte and stayed relatively matte throughout the day, but after a few days my skin started looking congested and then I broke out all over my face. >:(( Another thing I don't like, is that this is RIDICULOUSLY expensive for how LITTLE product is in this bottle. If you use it on face and neck, it probably wont last more than 3 months if applied correctly. I ended up using as little as possible, always afraid that I would run out! I had such high expectations :S This is a let down. The protection was good though. My skin got so much paler than my neck, I didnt tan at all. Im back to my Clinique City Block, at least it doesnt break me out.

Moisturizers -Clinique - Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion
rated 3 of 5
Juno77 1/30/2012 6:30:00 AM

This moisturizes really well, and feels light, but it clogs my pores over time :( Why in the world would Clinique put mineral oil and paraffin on this beats me. The gel version isnt as moisturizing, but it doesnt clog my pores so im sticking to that.

Lipstick -Revlon - Colorstay Soft and Smooth Lipcolor - Fabulous Fig 325
rated 4 of 5
Juno77 12/26/2011 11:51:00 PM

This shade is wonderful on me ( I use Clinique Acne Solutions fndtn in Fresh Almond, around Mac NW 35-NC 42) . Dark enough to give me definition, neutral enough to look natural, yet with a punch of color (red/brown). My lips are medium sized leaning toward thin, and Fig helps me give them shape, and more prominence in my complexion. The color is rich with a satin finish, and lasts on more or less 3-4 hours Id say? it feels pretty light on the lips, pretty much like a normal lipstick, but it sets after a bit. I had previously bought a TON of shades from loreal infallible rouge, only to find one shade among the one's I got that flattered me: Mesmerizing Merlot, wich on me looks like a similar color to Fig, only cooler, more winey/purpley and a bit less flattering. In the longwear lipcolor battle, infallible rouge's have superior lasting power than The Revlon colorstay S&S l/s, but they are still nice lippies, and feel more light on the lips and less sticky, if at all. i dont find them too drying at all either, since most times i use it without lipbalm or gloss and they still wear pretty comfortably, albeit giving a more matte look to my lips.
