Eye Shadow -Christian Dior - 5 Couleurs Designer All-In-One Artistry - Amber Design 708

I love this palette!! Works perfectly for me, I'm surprised what some of the other reviewers are saying about the color payoff. Perhaps this palette works best on fairer skin, as I think the colors are very beautiful blended together on my eyes. I love the liner too, easy to use and not too dark. All the shadows and liner goes on smoothly. Great price and as always, love the Dior packaging!

Sunscreen -La Mer - SPF 30 UV Protecting Fluid

LOVE this sunscreen! I use this every morning, at first I thought that it may be too greasy because it's in liquid form, but it's so airy, light and easy to blend in. I will definitely be repurchasing, I love La Mer products! They work wonders for me!

Cleansers -SKII - Facial Treatment Cleanser
caren88 9/1/2008 1:47:00 AM
SKII's facial treatment cleanser is the only product from SKII that works on my skin- I feel the other products are a bit too rich for me. This cleanser foams well and the texture is quite delicate, but I feel sometimes that it doesn't really cleanse my skin entirely. I alternate this cleanser with my HG cleansers: La Mer's Cleansing Foam and Shiseido The Skincare's Extra Gentle Cleansing Foam. SKII's cleanser works well, but for $50+ tax, it doesn't "wow" me. Personally, I would add $20 more and purchase La Mer's cleanser, or save $15 and purchase Shiseido's cleanser. The price is a bit expensive in the US ($50), I bought this in Hong Kong for US$30 (what a huge difference!!). For the price in the US, I will not repurchase.

Cleansers -La Mer - The Cleansing Foam
caren88 9/1/2008 1:30:00 AM
I absolutely love this facial cleanser! I've been using Shiseido The Skincare's Gentle Cleansing Foam for years and have recently added this to my skincare regimen. Because the price is a bit steep, I only use it at night time (I use Shiseido's or SKII's cleansers in the mornings). I can't comment on how it washes off makeup because I don't wear makeup often. I love the texture of it (very delicate) and how it foams on my skin. A pea-size is all I need! I've been eyeing this cleanser for a while but have always hesitated on spending $65+ on a cleanser. I'm glad I splurged! This cleanser leaves my skin refreshed and supple- I highly recommend it!

Masks -Shiseido - Moisture Relaxing Mask
caren88 9/1/2008 1:20:00 AM
I recently bought this and just gave it a try- I love it! I usually don't like massaging creams onto my face and rinsing them off (I prefer pre-packed masks), but it left my skin baby soft. I used it after washing my face with La Mer's Cleansing Foam (my hg facial cleanser) and Shiseido's Softening Lotion. Because it felt a little thick, I rinsed off with cool water instead of dabbing it off with tissue. My skin feels cool and relaxed- I will definitely repurchase! My one complaint is the packaging, I am not a big fan of dipping my fingers into jars; I wish it came with a spatula!
