Liquid -MAC - Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15

Instead of buying this product outright I went to the dreaded makeup counter to get a color match. The woman that worked with me showed me not only the best foundation for my skin type, but matched my olive tone perfectly. I would recommend this instead of just buying a color you think may work, they will put swatches on your face and you can see why the colors don't match. I didn't find this too heavy, being that I was at the prescriptives counter and that makeup made me feel like i was wearing a wedding cake on my face. So this was a relief. Also, remember that the spf in any product fades during the day. Although a product may say that it shields against UVA as well as UVB, It does not guarantee protection against all UVA wavelengths. Most broad-spectrum sunscreens and sunblocks with an SPF of 15 or higher do a good job against UVB and short UVA rays; if they also contain avobenzone, zinc oxide, or titanium dioxide, they should be effective against the entire UVA spectrum.

I have to agree with another user who said that they had the best hair days after using this! I hated spending the money on this system, but i must admit that it was the best thing i did for my hair. I don't have nearly as many frizzies and its softer than it ever has been.

Treatments -Murad - Post-Acne Spot Lightening Gel

I have tried this product for just under a year and the range of my skin reactions go from irritated to nothing with this. I still kept using it hoping it would lighten the scars as it advertised. I used it twice a day faithfully even though my skin sometimes turned red when i applied it to an area. Alas I had no results, at least it was no faster than just letting the scars peel/fade on their own.

Not only have I tried this product for months, It costs a fortune, and hasn't done a thing for me. I use this day and night, yet any spots are just as dark as they were.

Eye Primer -Too Faced - Shadow Insurance, Anti-Crease Eye Shadow Primer

I found this product way better than the Urban Decay eyeshadow primer. This actually kept my eyes looking fierce even after running out into the rain and working all day. I have tried the UD primer after I started using this one, and I noticed that the UD primer doesn't hold the color as well (it eventually flakes off during the day), while the Too Faced primer kept my eye shadow on until I took it off! The word needs to be spread about this product, it is easily superior to the UD version!

Eye Primer -Urban Decay - Eyeshadow Primer Potion - Original (UDPP)

Although this product is good, it is not nearly as good as the eyeshadow primer by Too Faced. I found that the Urban Decay primer still allowed the eyeshadow to fade during the day, and you have to break open the tube to get all of the product out.
