Skincare - Body -NADS - Hair Removal System - No-Heat Hair Removal Gel

Doesn't work at all. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and tried removing the hair a second time when my first try didn't work...big mistake...ended up turning my skin bright red. It works on fine facial hairs, but for legs, underarms, etc...it's just a big sticky mess.

Cleansers -Neutrogena - Sensitive skin solutions - combination skin
rated 4 of 5
meeshanne 4/6/2004 5:09:00 AM

I've finally found a product that doesn't irritate my oily but sensitive skin! I was surprised, because usually any cleanser that I try (except Komenuka Bijin) will leave nice results the first few washes, but will start stripping my skin and cause it to flake after a few days of using it. This cleanser doesn't dry out my skin at all, but it doesn't remove my makeup very well, so I only use it in the mornings, and wash my face with another brand at night. I'm thinking about trying the oily skin cleanser since the weather is getting warmer. The combo skin cleanser worked well during the cold weather, but i'm starting to get oily during the day from it. Overall, it's a good drugstore product...not yet my HG, but what I'll be using in the meantime as I continue my quest.

Fragrances -Ralph Lauren - Romance

I love this scent! I'm one of those people that sticks to one fragrance, and for years I never wore anything but Paloma Picasso...now I'm doing this with Romance. It lasts all day, and has a beautiful scent that isn't too sweet or musky.

Treatments (Eye) -MD Formulations - VitA Plus Eye Creme

It does smooth the skin around my eyes, but it stings a little bit when applying it. I don't think I'll be buying this again.

Not much to say, didn't clear up my skin.

Treatments -MD Forte - Advanced Hydrating Complex Gel
rated 4 of 5

I actually liked this product because you have to use very little to get moisturizing results. The only thing that bothered me was the packaging...I didn't like the applicator. It did leave me with really soft skin though.

Cleansers -MD Formulations - Facial Cleanser for Oily and Problem Skin
rated 2 of 5
meeshanne 3/15/2004 3:37:00 AM

I bought the problem skin kit which included five items including the cleanser. I found that it didn't remove my makeup very well, and although it didn't leave my skin dry and taught, it did make me break out. I followed up with the other products in the kit, and wasn't too "wowed" over the results.

Lotions/ Creams -Shi Kai - Body Lotion
rated 5 of 5
meeshanne 10/22/2003 6:11:00 PM

After first reading the reviews for this product, I expected it to be super expensive. I was wrong...it's dirt cheap and is the most amazing body lotion I've ever come across. I ordered a bottle from their website (gardenia) and after a week of using it, I went back and bought ten more bottles. The scent is amazing, it actually smells like I'm holding a bouquet of gardenias under my nose. After using this, I no longer use perfume because the lotion itself is enough. My skin is incredibly soft and silky...this has definitely become my HG of body lotions.

Scrubs -Neutrogena - Deep Clean Gentle Scrub
rated 5 of 5
meeshanne 6/27/2003 5:48:00 AM

This is a great product. Although I have oily acne prone skin, I tend to dry out very easily, and have trouble finding a cleanser that doesn't leave my skin tight and flaky. I use this at night and Komenuka Bijin facial clean powder in the mornings and my skin feels great. It has a slight orange smell, has a very creamy consistency, and fine microbeads, so it isn't harsh like other scrubs.

Cleansers -Komenuka Bijin - Cleansing Grains
rated 5 of 5
meeshanne 4/21/2003 4:45:00 AM

I LOVE this cleanser. I have sensitive combination skin that's very prone to breakouts, and even though it gets oily, most cleansers end up stripping and drying my skin, making it feel tight and dry, causing it to flake. After using this cleanser though, my skin came out soft and my skin tone looked so "creamy". I noticed an immediate difference after my first use. The only drawbacks are the packaging...a novel idea, but a bit inconvenient, and makeup removal. It removes my makeup completely, but only if I use the whole package, not the 1/3 that they instruct you to use, this wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't $37 a pop...it gets expensive!

Eye Shadow -Chanel - Shadowlights
rated 5 of 5
meeshanne 4/15/2003 9:21:00 PM

Love it, love it, love it. I was using the quads before, but would only use one or two colors in the case. This gets me more of my prefered color in a cute little "mini-me" compact. The texture is velvety and goes on great. Plus, it lasts throughout the day even without a base. The product lasts forever and doesn't break up into chunks and get all loose and powdery. Again, love it love it love it!!!

Cleansers -Almay - Milk Cleanser
rated 2 of 5
meeshanne 4/15/2003 9:07:00 PM

I think the best thing about this product is the packaging...pretty cute. Other than that the product is not that great. Although it did leave my skin feeling soft, and removed my make-up well, it made my eyes STING!!! It felt as if someone smeared Vicks all over my eyes. Everytime I washed my face with it, I had to make sure to spend extra time rinsing my eyes with water before opening them. Just not worth it.

Shampoo -Aussie - Moist Shampoo
rated 5 of 5
meeshanne 4/15/2003 9:00:00 PM

I love the way this product makes my hair feel. I only use the conditioner every other day because the shampoo alone is able to moisturize and soften my hair. My hair comes out smooth and silky without any residue like other products leave behind, so I no longer have to use a clarifying shampoo once a week.
