I suppose I do not need an EC f, but I thought I would try it. It provides good moisture, not greasy or watery and I apply am and pm. It does not burn my skin or have a fragrance.Actually I finished all of it but I want to try another EC from Origins.

Pretty good product. Kind of expensive...buy with a coupon if possible. Good to buy before a full size and easier to put in your pocket. The colors were brighter than i thought, def. not sticky but careful in your pocket they will melt.

I don't know why I try others, its so good. Bought it on QVC and i love the formulation and brush. Its not too wet or dry at all, you can use it right away, you don't have to let it dry out. Like other mascara i wipe it a little before application. There is no smelll at all either if you are interested. Definetly worth it!!

I bought the roller ball online first b/c i wasn't sure i would like it. I have'fancy nights' more deep and musky but i love it!! I need to buy a larger bottle. Reviews said its like Original Burberry, and it is. So if you like that you'll love this. The price is great too, you can buy a lg. bottle.If you aren't sure I would buy some roller balls of all the different scents to test them.

Treatments -Aubrey Organics - rosa mosqueta rose hip seed oil

After reading reviews i thought this would be great to try. I get the occassional breakout. So when i got it the roller ball seemed silly. Seriously, i was supposed to use it o my face? So i rubbed it on my hand the applyed it to my face. After using it about 2+ days my face broke out but also had dry flaky skin on top. I was so mad. It looked bad. So i discontinued use and it cleared up. i'm going to try it on my feet or somthing just to test it. I wanted to buy the SIBU sea buckthorn oil but i was swayed by good reviews.

Misc Beauty Tools -Unlisted Brand - TRIA Laser Hair Removal System
rated 4 of 5
kkostera 6/14/2011 4:05:00 PM

I waited a long time to buy it. I bought it from QVC $395...at 3 or so payments. I had gotten professional removal 3 or more years ago on my upper lip, chin area. I know its not meant for the face but i have a fews strays I want to try getting. Also my under arms, bikini and thes few hairs on my feet. I have only used it twice so my rview is not complete. But the price... if you add the cost of razors etc. waxing and the inconvenience its so worth it. Look on QVC for payments or free shipping. Its very easy, almost foolproof. I look forward to using it.

For the price you can't beat it. Its very soft and has washed great. Its quite dense and as a result it put alot of MSF on my face. I just got a looser type brush....but its worth it for other products.

Misc Beauty Tools -Clarisonic - Pro Skincare Brush
rated 5 of 5
kkostera 1/17/2011 10:55:00 PM

I received this for x-mas. I already have the Mia, and I love it. I just did not want to bother changing the brush heads so often. One recommendation is to use a loofa and gel....basically get soapy then use the Clairisonic. The timing/ pre-programs will take some getting used to. Also-- watch QVC!! look for value of the day. They offer extras or a package only available on QVC. Its very worth buying there.

i bought this on ebay just to try it. It wass such a good price i had to. On the skin it loooked amazing. Either using your fingers or a brush to apply and blend. You definetly do not need alot could top it with a powder but i didn't try. Great price compared to MACs.at all, like a touch of one finger tip. It was so great i bought 2 more colors. I'm sure you

kkostera 4/27/2010 10:21:00 AM

ok the smell is amazing. The hardest part for me was to decide what flavors. I opted for the 6/ $20, the banana cream pie and choc.cake are great. I wanted to eat them :)They come in a easy stick form, so it can go in your pocket and no goopy finger to apply.They do not feel waxy at all, smooth and moisterized. I will def. buy again!!

Misc Beauty Tools -Clarisonic - Mia

kkostera 4/22/2010 10:08:00 AM

well i waited to buy this, i don't know why. It was a value of the day on QVC but it was on sale www.aspenleafspa.com. I saw it on youtube. Anyway the product is great!! made my skin super smooth and i've had it a week. No way do you need the next one up. For your face, the Mia is perfect. I used my philosophy daily microdelivery, scrub is so gentle its ok. You have to remove your eye make up first but i love it so far. My skin feels smooth, especially my neck. Its so great!!! I need to add...when watching QVC, the host was talking about using the Philosophy daily microdelivery. Its NOT abrasive at all. My skin is not sensitive but it feels great I use it in the morning when skin is somewhat clean before makeup.

offers pretty good coverage but makes me look cakey. Its too bad b/c its very convenient to use . Except the hinge on my compact broke and the clear plastic snapped off too. Maybe i will try it for a finishing powder... not sure.

I love mascara and saw great reviews so i ordered a sample from ebay b/c the full was expensive,. The brush actually had bristles. The product was a bit dry, i was suprised. The scent seemed great, but when i applied it the scent killed my eyes!! itas like cutting onions, they burned so bad. I hd to take it off, so i thoughtmaybe it was the eyeliner. Soi tried it again w/ no mu, i have to wash it off now. Why would you perfume mascara? glad i did not purchase full size!
