Foundations -Elizabeth Arden - Intervene
ceicei 1/23/2008 6:29:00 AM
I agree with previous review. I will add that it looks as good in the am as it does in the pm without a touchup. I have used all foundations, from the most expensive SKII to Milani at CVS, and I am surpised by Elizabeth Ardens since I don't usually care for this brand. I was at the counter because I do love their ceramide perfect lipsticks and I sampled this foundation and went back the next day to purchase. I wear it over Chanel's new primer and that makes a very natural finish for me.

Lipstick -Elizabeth Arden - Ceramide Plump Perfect Lipstick
ceicei 12/5/2007 6:40:00 AM
Great lipstick with full coverage. Lips look full. I have a few different colors but my favorite is Perfect Brick similar to Clinique's discontinued red drama but with better staying power. The perfect everyday red--needs very little touch up and is not very bright just a deep brick red. I have had to order from EA because my local Macy is always out of stock of this shade. If you like it, buy a couple

Foundations -SKII - Air Touch Foundation [DISCONTINUED]
ceicei 11/16/2006 10:08:00 AM
I can't even explain what is so great about this foundation. You put it on then look in the mirror throughout the day and you skin is flawless. Doesn't settle in lines. I am 56 with few lines and good skin but foundation tends to accentuate the lines I do have. This makeup doesn't. I have tried every foundation from LaPrairie to Milani. This is definitely a wow.

Crème -Laura Mercier - Silk Creme Foundation

Coverage was good but I experienced the same reactions as others--broke out with red cysts on my forehead and cheek. I do have sensitive skin but this allergic reaction was different from anything I had experienced before. Returned it.

Lips -Senna - lip lacquer
ceicei 5/25/2005 6:21:00 PM
I have never liked lip gloss. But these lacquers are fabulous. Most glosses make your lipstick disappear in a short time. These lacquers last for hours. The best out there. If you can't touch up your lipstick every few hours, these lacquers are for you.

Brows -Yves Saint Laurent - Duo Expert Sourcil (Eyebrow enhancer duo)
ceicei 5/11/2005 5:21:00 PM
This brow product is wonderful. My eyebrows have thinned out and have some grays. I have tried everything. The powders don't cover the grays, and the tinted brow fixes don't fill in enough. I have reddish brown hair and thought the number 2 would be too dark. It is perfect. My brow looks more neutral and not some auburn color. The product thickens the hair, colors the grays and I find it last all day. If I am going out for the evening, I fill in first with the #2 pencil. Definitely will repurchase. I am surprised more people haven't discovered this product. I bought it based on the previous review.

Self Tanners -Jergens - Natural Glow
ceicei 4/10/2005 6:53:00 AM
I never quite got the results I wanted with self tanners. This stuff is amazing. I used it four times in the last seven days. I have a perfect tan--no uneveness at all. Love this. Because the results are subtle--I can gradually go darker or skip a couple of days.

Self Tanners -L'Oreal - Sublime Bronze Gelee in medium deep
ceicei 5/19/2004 6:23:00 PM
Great self tanner--used it on my legs and arms and have a great bronze color. I haven't needed to apply another coat after three days. It is a bit on the dark side--pale skins should test first. Takes awhile to dry.

Liquid -Milani - smooth finish liquid makeup
ceicei 8/29/2003 10:36:00 AM
I love all the Milani products. I have a fair complexion but love vibrant colors. I think Milani has something for everyone. The colors rival department store choices. I wish it was carried in all CVS stores. The blushes and lipsticks are fabulous. Can't get enough of them. The foundations have a great consistency. Highly recommend this line to everyone.

Styling Products -Pantene - Curl Lock Mousse

My hair is the curliest it has ever been. The best product for curly hair. I have bought Ouidad and liked their products, but this, by far, has brought back my curl.

Beautiful lipstick and a great red with staying power. I find it similar to the new Clinique color surge. Long lasting and a vibrant red. Can't get much better than this.

Eye Shadow -Milani - Rich Chocolate
ceicei 7/29/2003 5:27:00 PM
Great color. Love all the Milani products. The quality is excellent. This is a rich brown. Makes a fabulous eyeliner when wet and lasts all day. Having trouble finding them. CVS carries them at a few locations and they are not well stocked. Walgreens doesn't sell them in my area. I buy as many as I can when I find them.

Mascara -Mirenesse - Secret Weapon Mascara
ceicei 6/12/2003 6:22:00 AM
I love this mascara. When you remove it, it doesn't smear all over your face. It's not drying like waterproof mascaras, but stays in place until you remove it with just a swipe of a cotton ball and a little cleanser. For fabulous lashes I wear it over Shisedo's mascara base. It does not clump and more importantly it looks great and I don't have to worry ever about it smudging. The best mascara I have ever used. I have never used anything like it. I got mine on HSN.
