Blush -L'Oreal - Feel Naturale Blush- Mauvelous

Great blush! Love the mauve color. Goes on light & smooth, no streaking, and doesn't look dry (I have combo skin w/some dry areas, so I have to beware of blushes that go on powdery or too matte). I saw these reviews about shimmer so I went and looked at it (I usually don't like shimmer.) It does have shimmer when looking at it in compact, but I don't notice it because it goes on more matte. Also, it's cheap, it lasts and the brush isn't bad, although I use my good brushes when at home!

Great Gel! First gels I used were terrible (sticky, flaky, etc.), so never again planned on using a gel, but a stylist put it on my hair and really liked it! I have lots of hair but very fine so I need volume products!! Best gel ever tried!

Love this product! I have lots of hair, but very fine & straight! This offers great strong hold, YET you can brush thru it w/out hair feeling like it has spray on it. This and Pure Hair are similiar and love them both. Agree w/Jenibel, don't need much & can lasts! I don't notice drying (and I've always had dry, color or permed hair), but I use excellent conditioners (Joico KPak, etc.). Also, I use products periodically to remove any buildup from all styling products I use, so not an issue.

Love this conditioner. I have dry, color treated hair and it makes it shiny and soft. Not crazy about the price, so occasionally go to something else, but seem to always come back...not only for conditioner.. I LOVE the smell! Seems like it has a slight banana creme scent in it. A soft, great scent!!

Crème -Mary Kay - Cream-to-Powder Foundation

I agree with kindergirl. This is a great creme to powder. Good coverage, w/minimal heaviness. Have tried 5+ brands and this is by far the best. I also agree that for the price, it doesn't last long. Frustrated now because my color went away till January...typical of MKay product changes as soon as find a color I like.
