Eye Makeup Remover -Boots - No7 Cleanse & Care Eye Make-up Remover
rated 5 of 5
pennylane17 2/18/2012 8:16:00 PM

I have been trying many eye makeup removers and didn't like any of them - until I tried this. It almost melts off my makeup even waterproof mascara. Does not burn or sting my eyes. Does not feel overly oily. My only complaint is what others have already mentioned - the packaging is horrible. The pump is bad design. I often end up with the product in my sink because the pump missed part of my cotton ball. I also think it's slightly expensive but considering how well it worked I'm willing to pay it.

This is the worst eye makeup remover I've ever used. Not only does it not remove all my makeup but it stings and burns my eyes. Awful.

Cleansers -Philosophy - Purity Made Simple (Real Purity Cleanser)
rated 5 of 5

I bought a kit from QVC to try some Philosophy products. I really like Purity. It makes my skin feel very clean after using it. I don't like foaming cleansers so this is perfect for me. It's a little pricey for a cleanser but worth the money.

Cleansers -Neutrogena - Extra Gentle Cleanser

I finally found a cleanser I will repurchase! This has been fabulous for my combo skin. It cleans well and afterwards my face feels .... well, clean! Not tight or stingy. The texture is kind of milky and it's very soft. I personally don't like foaming cleansers so this stuff works great for me. It also takes my makeup off well. My face looks very clean after using it.

My skin is so smooth after using this. It is the only moisturizer I use before bed and my skin is so silky overnight. My skin is looking much better also.

Moisturizers -Olay - Total Effects Anti-Aging Anti-Blemish Moisturizer [DISCONTINUED]
rated 4 of 5
pennylane17 2/24/2006 4:20:00 PM

I have combo skin and this has been working well for me. I was afraid it would be drying but it moisturizes very well. I have not had any breakouts and my skin is in better shape than it has been in a long time. I use this along with Olay's Anti-Aging Daily Renewal Cleanser and the Seven Signs Serum. I am very impressed with the new Olay products. My only complaint is the price. It is too much for a drugstore product and the tube is not that large.

Powder -Bare Escentuals - Bare Minerals ALL
rated 5 of 5

Add me to those that love Bare Minerals. I have always hated wearing foundation because of how heavy it feels and how unnatural it looks. But with BE, both those problems are solved. Yes, there is a learning curve and it takes more time to put on. But it is worth it to me. I have combo skin and my makeup has never looked better. I have been using it for 3 months and I have definitely noticed a positive difference in the condition of my skin.

Eye Primer -Urban Decay - Eyeshadow Primer Potion - Original (UDPP)
rated 5 of 5
pennylane17 1/31/2006 4:39:00 PM

It really works. My eyeshadow has never stayed on this long before. Usually after a couple hours it is falling off, but with PP it lasts all day. The trick is to wait until it dries before applying eye color. The packaging could be better. I always use my finger instead of the wand. For $14, it would also be nice to get a little more product. But overall, I love this stuff!
