Treatments (Eye) -L'Oreal - Collagen Micro-Pulse
MissiD 8/20/2010 11:43:00 AM
As a bzz agent, I received this product to try out. I can't say I'm impressed. The eye cream is ok, it goes on smoothly, but I haven't seen any changes in my under eye circles or puffiness. The micro pulse doesn't seem to make a difference either, but it does feel good on my eyes in the morning when I'm still sleepy and at night after a whole day at work staring at the computer. I agree with others who call it a gimmick, it hasn't done anything special for me, and I definitely wouldn't spend money on it.

Lip Gloss -Cover Girl - Shineblast
MissiD 5/18/2010 5:29:00 PM
I'm a bzzagent and I got this lipgloss in my bzzkit in the Smolder shade. I'm a lipgloss addict, but this one left a lot to be desired. There is no pigment at all, the color looks pretty in the bottle - a shimmery pinkish brown - but not pigmented at all. The velvet tipped applicator doesn't dispense much product and it really isn't even that glossy or shiny on my lips unless I glob tons of it on. It is, however, fairly moisturizing, not sticky and does have a nice watermelon scent to it. At best, I might use this over a matte lipstick to give it a bit of gloss, but I definitely won't be purchasing.

Crème -Cover Girl - Simply Ageless
MissiD 5/18/2010 12:24:00 PM
I'm also a bzzagent and was excited to receive this and other Simply ageless products in my bzz kit - I'd heard many good things about this line and was anxious to try it for myself. I must say I was not disappointed. First of all, the product glides on velvety smooth and doesn't look clumpy or cakey. While the shade I got (buff beige) is a tad too light for me, I was pleased with the consistency and coverage. The makeup blended easily, didn't settle into fine lines and gave my skin a flawless, glowing appearance. It didn't give me the "mask" effect and didn't wipe away every time I touched my face. I did take off one lippie because, on me, the coverage seems to simply fade away after a few hours, however, after a few quick touch-ups, I was back to glowing again! I will definitely purchase.

Treatments -RoC - Retinol Correction Deep Wrinkle Night Cream
MissiD 12/22/2009 10:52:00 AM
I actually didn’t purchase this – I am loyal Bzzagent – a website specializing in word of mouth advertising and I was selected to be a part of the RoC campaign through bzzagent and I got several samples, so I thought I’d give it a try. Within 2 weeks, I could definitely see a difference in my skin. It immediately erased the dullness and my skin was glowing again! I could also see an improvement in those crepey little lines that were creeping up everywhere. It has been about 4 weeks since I started using this and my skin has never looked better. The fine lines everywhere have disappeared, the “marionette” lines at the sides of my mouth are all but gone and even the deep creases in my forehead are improving. And I’m loving the youthful glow! I will continue to use this and look forward to further improvement. Will definitely purchase again!

Lotions/ Creams -Avon - Naturals Body Lotion in Pumpkin and Spice
MissiD 10/26/2005 11:00:00 AM
Ooooh, this is yummy. Surprising, because most of the Avon Naturals smell plasticy and fake to me. This one is not all that moisturizing, kinda thin & runny, but it smells like fresh pumpkin pie and if layered with the body spray, the scent lasts all day.

Blush -Avon - roller ball powder blush
MissiD 10/3/2005 11:56:00 AM
I think this has been discontinued, but I really like this. I bought this in the peachy color and although it doesn't work if you roll it on, I roll it onto a big, fluffy blush brush and I get just the right amount. The color is great on me, not fake looking, but a nice pink flush.

Hair -L'Oreal - Feria Starry Night
MissiD 8/15/2005 12:49:00 PM
I've been dying my naturally dark brown hair jet black for about 2 years and I too have tried almost every black there is, but I was not impressed with this. For the first week or so, it looks great, but then the shine and color start to fade drastically and it just looks dull. I get much better results from L'oreal Excellence or Garnier.

Treatments -Avon - ANEW Clinical Laser Treatment
MissiD 8/11/2005 1:57:00 PM
I have several freckles & sun spots on my face, but the worst for me is the dark patch above my lip caused by pregnancy that makes me look like I have a mustache. I've tried just about every over the counter lightening product and none have done anything, except for this. It's not a miracle product that will erase all blemishes upon first usage, but I've been using this for about a month and I can now get away with just using foundation or powder with no concealer. My spots are not totally gone, but they have lightened noticeably. I find the sunscreen too heavy, I still use my Olay moisturizer w/sunscreen, but I will definitely repurchase.

Lotions/ Creams -The Body Shop - Coconut Body Butter
MissiD 7/1/2005 1:32:00 PM
I love anything coconut, but I'm not too sure I'll be buying this again. The smell initially is wonderful, but after an hour or two, it smells fake and plasticy on me. It's a good moisturizer, but the scent does nothing for me.

Self Tanners -Jergens - Natural Glow
MissiD 6/30/2005 10:44:00 AM
I think this is great! I use this at night after I shower and I have a natural, healthy looking glow that I get lots of compliments on. I don't think the smell is any worse than any other self tanner and I don't have a problem with streaking. I used to use Sublime Bronze, but I think I'll stick with this.

Styling Products -John Frieda - Beach Blonde Ocean Waves sea spray ] ] [DISCONTINUED]
MissiD 6/24/2005 11:21:00 AM
Overall, I like this stuff. I have naturally curly hair and I find that if I use this on towel-dried hair and blow dry w/a diffuser, I end up with wonderfully shiny, non-frizzy curls. However, it is a bit expensive for the amount in the bottle, I use one bottle in a 1 1/2 weeks! Because of this, I only gave it a 4, but I do plan to continue using this because it's the only thing I've found that controls my usually frizzy curls.

Oooooohhh, this is yummy!!! I usually use the Angel Food Cake lotion, but grabbed the Lemon Meringue by accident and I love it!!! It smells so fresh, but not fake, like some lemon scents.

Foundations -Maybelline - Dream Matte Mousse
MissiD 12/22/2004 6:08:00 PM
I just can't seem to find a decent foundation. It's almost like my skin gets used to a product after using it for awhile and it stops working. Having said that, this one works well for me, The coverage is great, it evens out my skintone wonderfully. However, I do find that this tends to slip off easily, and makes my t-zone a tad bit oiler than usual. But, I can live with that, since I've not found anything really comparable in a LONG time.

Lotions/ Creams -Avon - Planet Spa African Shea Butter foot and elbow creme with aha
MissiD 11/30/2004 3:15:00 PM
This works really well for me!!! I use it at night and I see the difference the next day. I hate wearing shoes, especially in the summer, which leaves my feet really dry and cracked, but this fixes it right up!!! I've got this stockpiled, I buy a jar every time it's on sale.
