Liquid -Napoleon Perdis - Sheer Genius
ozmonto23 11/13/2010 4:15:00 AM
A-MA-ZING!!!!! I tried this foundation in the store and was so happy with it... sadly my colour (look 3) was sold out around the most part of the world. Thankfully i managed to find it on a website after some serious digging. To prove to you how much i actually like it, I ended up paying $107 instead of the $69 it would have cost me here in nz (due to exchange rates and shipping). It looks very natural, is a beautiful colour and makes your skin feel soooo silky smooth. I have no idea what the first reviewer is on about with regard to it being dry - that is the last word i would use to describe it, i found it to be opposite.

Treatments -Ella Bache - Creme Intex
ozmonto23 10/27/2010 3:58:00 AM
I can not recommend this product highly enough! It is much better than the EA 8 hour cream in my opinion. It is amazing for those with sensitive skin or even those of you who get facials as it is such a speedy skin repairer. You can use it on EVERYTHING. It is quite expensive $80+ but because of the texture, lasts a very long time - it is also not something you would use every day. I have used this following glycolic peels, for sun burnt or dry face, dry lips, as an eye cream and on anything else that requires healing. It also works really well on eczema.

Self Tanners -Ella Bache - Great Tan Without Sun
ozmonto23 10/27/2010 3:51:00 AM
This is actually a review for the great mousse tan. This is an awesome colour and is very simple to apply without experiencing the evil streak, however sometimes it can get a bit runny and you really need to make sure you shake it properly. It is the most natural colour i have ever come across and i have tried many, however at $50/bottle it is rather expensive. I really do love this and do highly recommend it, but it does sometimes give me the odd spot if used on my neck. This doesn't have the best longevity but on the other side of the coin it shows up immediately, lasts a couple of days and is easier to remove than others. I would definitely recommend purchasing this. It is not in the least bit orange:)

Treatments -MyChelle - Clear Skin Serum
ozmonto23 10/27/2010 3:44:00 AM
My only gripe about this product is that it doesnt smell the best, but you get used to that. It makes the skin look very, very clear, reduces appearance of pores without drying...... Granted i have pretty good skin but i do get the odd spot which this clears within a day or 2 and it really does give your skin a healthy, clear appearance. Bear in mind the product goes relatively fast so tends to make it a little expensive.... but it's worth the price if you find something that works:) Edit: Ok, im completely changing my rating. The above spiel was regarding the sample product, however after purchasing the full sized bottle I'm really disappointed. This does not help with my blemishes, if anything it irritates my skin. I have no idea why the 2 formulae are different, buy I'm really disappointed in this.

Cleansers -Trilogy - Cleansing Cream
ozmonto23 10/27/2010 3:41:00 AM
I really love this cleanser and will definitely be keeping a bottle on hand (although it is not my main cleanser). This really makes ones skin glow, evens out skintone and is non comedogenic. My skin really felt like it was drinking something very nourishing and i would almost say you could go without a moisturiser following the use of this product. Most of the trilogy products are beautiful and i love that they are made in NZ - most NZ products are reliable as the company has quite strict standards. Please don't be scared off this cleanser if you have oily skin - it may take you a while to get used to the texture but it will honestly nourish your skin.

Cleansers -Trilogy - Balancing Gel Cleanser
ozmonto23 10/27/2010 3:33:00 AM
I love most of the trilogy products but i found this to be a tiny bit of a let down. This made my face a little red and it did feel a wee bit stripped, it also has a very runny, water texture. On the plus side, this didnt break me out at all, nor did it cause little allergic bumps on my face as some cleansers do. It is really not a bad product, but there is nothing wow about it.

Moisturizers -Trilogy - Age Proof Replenishing Night Cream
ozmonto23 10/27/2010 3:30:00 AM
This is a beautiful product (as are most of the trilogy range), it does not break me out and leaves my skin soooo soft and beautiful while evening out my skin tone. The only negative would be that i have actually noticed an increase in the size of my pores since using this nightly. Over all a gorgeous product.

Toners -MyChelle - Fruit Enzyme Mist
ozmonto23 10/27/2010 3:26:00 AM
This product is amazing! I use it as a general toner following cleansing but also use it over foundation (i like it natural so use the napoleon camera finish) and i can not rate this highly enough! It makes my skin glow! It really gives me movie star skin!!! This mist smells lovely and shrinks pores, so i cant really fault it.

Masks -Trilogy - Purifying Masque
ozmonto23 9/30/2010 2:17:00 AM
I am a huge advocate for most trilogy products and this is no different. I use the COQ10 serum, cream cleanser, age repair night cream and this. I would usually have given this product 5 stars however last night following it's use, my face looks sunburned! It calmed down after an hour or so however, and im pretty sure it was my fault due to the fact that i spread it rather thickly...... this is the 6th time i had applied it and had no issues prior. So all in all an amazing mask, just be sure to apply sparingly:)

Cleansers -Murad - Moisture Rich Cleanser
ozmonto23 8/5/2010 10:53:00 PM
I have tried SOOOOO many different cleansers.... but this is absolutely amazing!!! I have been using it for the past 3 years and can't see me changing in a hurry. I have sensitive, combination skin. This product has made my skin so beautiful, balanced and clear... i really cant brag enough. It isnt the cheapest of cleansers, but it is definitely worth the money spent. It is not drying whatsoever, in fact you can get away with not using a moisturiser. I would highly recommend this!
