Great moisturizer for anything dry or flaked or chafed when nothing else works. Usually use it overnight as it is really thick and goopy.

I totally fell for this "miracle" acne system, but yea it didn't work for me at all. The worst part was that their mask thing or watever, which I think it Step 4, in the system, made my skin and all my clothes smell like sulfur for months after I stopped using this, just couldn't get rid of the smell. P.S. A bunch of my friends used proactiv and it hasn't worked for any of them.

I'm not sure why this is so expensive as the main ingridient is Salycilic Acid 2%, which you can buy in any drug store over the counter. I have used this for a couple of months as instructed, and saw absolutely no improvement!!!! A complete waste of 120 dollars!!!

Primer/ Corrector -Clinique - Pore Minimizer Instant Perfector

This is quite pricey, but they way it works for me anyways is I would put it on and I would notice is it would tone down the oil on my t - zone, thus making the pores appear smaller, as soon as the the face started to get oily again, the pores looked exactly the same size as before.

Liquid -Lancome - Teint Idole Ultra 24h

I used the 14 hours teint idole for years and then they switched the formula to the 24 hour one. Anyways I'm glad I first got a sample before buying the whole thing as it is about $45 for 1 oz. The foundation made my pores look gigantic and my face really greasy, the foundation looked really thick like I was wearing a mask on my face. Also lasts about an hour before my face gets greasy and the foundation starts sliding off. I will not be buying this product.

Lip Gloss -Lancome - Lancome Juicy Tubes

I got this as a free sample with my Lancome purchase. Pretty big size for a sample I have to say. I know it will last me forever. The shade which is very pale pink with some shimmer in it, I would have personally never picked, but since it was a sample I didn't have a choice. Anyways, I was really surprised when I put it on because the pink shimmer made my lips look really plumped up like I had my lips done and made my green eyes really pop out. I am very satisfied with this lipgloss.

Powder -Pur Minerals - Pressed Powder Foundation
rated 5 of 5

Let me just say that I usually don't write reviews for anything as I am extremely critical and skeptical of everything, but I cannot keep quiet about this, anyways, I have extremely oily, acne prone skin, and huge pores/acne scars. I have been battling a severe acne outbreak lately, and nothing has been helping (not the expensive antibiotics or prescription acne creams), all the expensive foundations and powders I was using were only making me break out more (plus made my face look really greasy and tired, with huge pores and acne scars sticking out). I'm only 24 but people said I look like I'm in my thirties (which is really depressing to hear). Anyways I stumbled upon the purminerals compact foundation. I ended up buying the whole kit - powder/bronzer/blush/brush - everything cost me 28 dollars - they had a discount going on. Anyways, as soon as I put it on which only took about a minute - I used the brush to put on the powder plus dabbed some blush on my cheecks, and my face was completely transformed. I couldn't believe how smooth and natural my face looked, how even the coverage was, my pores and acne scars looked almost non existant. Also after just a couple of days of using this, my acne started healing up and no new breakouts!!!! It is worth every penny!!! I will definetely buy it again. The only down side is my face is still extremely oily so I have to dab some blotting sheets on my face every few hours. But this powder lasts about eight hours before I have to touch it up, instead of my foundation which cost twice as much and melted off my face in about two hours. An added bonus is now I look like I'm 20 and I keep getting compliments on how good and sexy I look.
