I received this as a gift Dec 6 2012. Jan 22, 2013, the brush head fell off. I could not get it back on. I did clean the brush every week, so I do know how to reattach it. I emailed Clarisonic customer service, 2 days,,,,,no reply I will change this review if I get a positive response from them.

Concealers -L'Oreal - Visible Lift Serum Age-Reversing Concealer
bhk126 5/2/2012 10:04:00 AM
I Just bought this as recommended by Paula Beguoin on her website. The product is fine, BUT the click pen is weird. You keep twisting to get the concealer out; then I dot it on my dark circles, then pat with ring finger. BUT, do you clean the brush??? seems you should, but then liquid will get wasted...... I don't know if I will buy it again due to sanitation cleansing issue. NO instructions on L'oreal website, and no way to contact them via email. NOT good customer service IMHO

Concealers -Garnier - Anti-Dark-Circle Eye Roller
bhk126 12/13/2011 9:06:00 AM
I like it BUT Paula Begouin Beautypedia website says: Review: This lightweight serum is packaged in a tube with one end having a metal roller-ball applicator. You’re supposed to massage it over dark circles for quick relief, but don’t count on instant or long-term improvement, or any dark circle-related benefit from this type of packaging. It would be great if we could instantly roll away dark circles, but it’s just not possible. Massaging skin to stimulate circulation isn’t the answer in this case, because increasing blood flow to the undereye area can actually make dark circles look even darker. Also, some types of dark circles are due to pigmentation issues that are either hereditary or from sun damage. These types of dark circles don’t respond to massage or any of the ingredients in this product. Although the roller-ball applicator is a “neat-o” factor, what’s dispensed is far more problematic than exciting. The formula contains a high amount of alcohol and the sunscreen ingredient ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate. The alcohol causes collagen breakdown and hurts skin’s healing process—two things guaranteed to make dark circles worse—and the sunscreen ingredient isn’t the best for use so close to the eye itself (it can cause stinging). You would be far better off treating your eye area with a fragrance-free serum loaded with collagen-stimulating antioxidants and keeping it protected daily with a sunscreen rated SPF 15 or greater. Those steps will help your dark circles considerably more than this product will! Pros: None.

Sunscreen -Neutrogena - Ultra Sheer Liquid Daily Sunblock spf 70

I have used this and the spf 100, both leave a whitish cast and difficult or impossible to get makeup to cover it. (I put moisturizer on first) I will use it on arms and legs. it has NO zinc oxide, and I don't think it does as good a job as products with Zinc oxide.

Primer/ Corrector -Unlisted Brand - Monistat - Chafing Relief Powder-Gel

I put on moisturizer, then Neutrogena Sunscreen 70, then this as a primer. Used 10 days. I have normal skin. It "pilled up", particularly on my nose, and then was worse after applying concealer and mineral powder makeup.

Skincare - Face -Olay - Professional Pro-X Anti-Aging Starter Protocol
bhk126 9/10/2009 7:56:00 PM
After 30 days I see NO changes from using these products. It actually has caused some milia in the eye/nose area. I have sensitive skin. Olay assured me via email rep "no problem "; ok for sensitive skin. Falsely advertised IMHO; vastly overpriced
