Treatments -Mary Kay - TimeWise Replenishing Serum + C
Tapestry 9/22/2009 3:42:00 PM
I'm on my second vial and I think this stuff is amazing! I have definitely seen improvements in my skin. There's less redness, it's smoother and just looks overall better. I have sensitive skin and this product has not caused any irritation. I think this is one of the best products Mary Kay has come out with in years! I will continue to repurchase.

Powders -Mary Kay - Pressed Powder
Tapestry 5/11/2008 6:09:00 PM
This is a review of the NEW mineral pressed powder. One word---horrible! I have it in Ivory 1--the lightest shade. I've tried it several times over Mary Kay's medium foundation { which I love} and it feels "heavy" although it's called sheer. It's feel dry and heavy on my face. It cakes and settles into lines and pores I didn't even know I had. And it also looks shiny after awhile. I will never re-purchase. I'm not happy with the changes Mary Kay has made to their cosmetic line. I think the new compacts are awful! They may "look" elegant, but that's until you actually handle the compact... it smudges like crazy! And if I pick it up after just putting on hand lotion, it flies right out of my hand across the room! I don't know "who" is making decisions at Mary Kay lately, but it doesn't seem to me that these new products of their's were "road tested" before they were marketed. I hate that there is no choice except "minerals" for their makeup line now. Women should have a choice. I think discontinuing the entire makeup line and replacing it with mineral makeup is a HUGE mistake!

Treatments -L'Oreal - Age Perfect Pro-Calcium
Tapestry 12/2/2007 4:02:00 PM
I've been using the Pro Calcium night cream for over a week now, and I absolutely love it! The improvement in my skin has been astonishing! I'm 54 with very sensitive skin and this didn't irritate my skin in the least. In fact, it is even reducing the redness! I wasn't sure I'd be able to use it at first because of the scent, but the fragrance hasn't bothered me at all, and has even dimished with time. I don't even notice it now. I would highly recommend this product! I'm looking forward to trying the day cream.

Fragrances -Mary Kay - Affection
Tapestry 12/22/2006 9:04:00 PM
I think this new scent by Mary Kay is lovely! It's a bit strong when I first spritz it on, but it quickly dries down to a more subtle lingering fragrance. The fragrance really lasts too! I wore it to bed and could still smell it when I woke up. Very subtle though. I wouldn't call it overpowering at all.

Moisturizers -BeneFit Cosmetics - Dear John - a Movin' On Facial Cream [DISCONTINUED]
Tapestry 8/29/2006 1:23:00 PM
I was a bit hesitant to try this cream {because my face has become so sensitive} but after reading so many positive reviews I finally bought a jar and am I ever glad I did! This cream is amazing! My sensitive skin has had no untowards reaction to this cream and it has even soothed existing redness. I awoke to smoother, brighter skin! My pores are smaller too! The scent is pleasant and disappates within seconds. I can be allergic to scented creams, but not this one! Dryness is gone! Fine lines are plumped up! Dear John has truly satisfied me! I'll be comin' back for more!

Skincare - Body -Jing Jang - Jing Jang Creme
Tapestry 7/25/2006 3:40:00 AM
Ok. This review is going to be a bit different as it pertains to a dog's nose not human skin. One of my border collies developed a severe crusty, scaly nose. He also had several spots on his nose where the black pigmentation had turned a pinkish/white. It was horrible! I took him to our vet and she thought he needed to be tested for Lupus. His nose looked that bad! The skin was actually peeling off his nose! Well, I had a jar of Jing Jang cream, so I decided to try it on his nose. I rubbed it on his nose several times a day. He didn't mind the slight herbally scent. It took several months, but Jing Jang cream CURED his NOSE! Even the pigmentation came back in nice and black. For that reason alone I give this product 5 stars. That was several years ago. His nose looks perfect today and even the vet wasn't sure his nose would ever heal. I keep Jing Jang cream on hand and use it on my own rashes as well. It works on my extremely sensitive skin. Jing Jang is amazing!

Treatments -Mary Kay - Day Solution/ Night Solution
Tapestry 7/16/2006 4:02:00 PM
I'm updating my previous review of the "new" Day Solution/Night Solution. When I first reviewed the new versions of these products I was going through menopause and my face had become extremely sensitive. Now, I'm on the "other side" of menopause, and my face has calmed down. I tried these two products again and they are fabulous! I've been using both products for a couple of weeks and the skin on my face looks much younger and brighter. I'm so glad I gave these products another try! This is a review of the NEW and supposedly improved versions of Day Solution/Night Solution. I've used the orignal versions of these two products ever since they came out and loved them! Sadly, the new versions have made my skin a red, blotchy stinging MESS! Mary Kay.."if it ain't broke why fix it"? I'm buying the original versions on Ebay now. What a shame. They were such great products before Mary Kay decided to "improve" them. I wonder if any of you other ladies have had to discontinue using these products or is it just me?

Treatments (Eye) -Murad - Resurgence Renewing Eye Cream
Tapestry 7/10/2006 4:37:00 PM
I recently tried this eye cream for the first time and now I swear by it! I'm 53 and this eye cream has really "renewed" my entire eye area. It reduces puffiness better than anything I've tried and I've tried almost everything. I've used Murad products for years and find they are very effective. Pricey, but effective.

I orginally posted a review of this product on 10/27/2005, so since I've used it for a month now I decided to update my review. I am so pleased with the results I'm seeing after using this product for one month! I feel it is erasing,little by little,10 years off my face. I'm 52. I will definitely be buying another jar. And another and another and another...

Treatments -Avon - Anew Alternative Intensive Age Treatment [DISCONTINUED]
Tapestry 10/27/2005 1:39:00 PM
After reading the mostly rave reviews about this product I decided to give it a try and I'm really glad I did! I've only used it for 3 days and I definitely see a difference already. My face IS firmer, little lines have lessoned and redness is diminishing. I'm eager to see the results after I've used it longer. All in all I think this is a great product.

Moisturizers -L'Oreal - Dermo Expertise RevitaLift
Tapestry 9/5/2004 3:36:00 PM
This is a staple in my skin care arsenol. I live in the mountains at 6000 ft. altitude, and this cream really helps keep the extreme effects of the environment at bay. It plumps up my skin and virtually eliminates fine lines. I think this cream would probably be way too rich for young skin, which is why some of you younger girls may have had such a bad experience with it. I started using it in my early 40's and am in my early 50's now.

Conditioner -Neutrogena - triple moisture deep recovery hair mask
Tapestry 5/5/2004 7:35:00 PM
I see so many great reviews of this product posted, but it didn't do a thing for my hair---at least not yet. In fact,it made my hair feel dryer than it already did. I've only used it twice though, so maybe if I continue to use it and leave it on longer I'll see better results.

This is simply a FANTASTIC eye cream! My eyes are very sensitive and this didn't bother them at all. It makes the skin around my eyes look very young and firm. Great product!
