Moisturizers -Clarins - Sun Wrinkle Control Cream Ultra Protection SPF 35

Big fan of this stuff. I wear the spf 15, though. It's incredibly hydrating. It glides on a tad thick, but after about 15 minutes or so it's sunk in and your skill feels smoth, firm and it looks dewey. The scent is pleasant — not overly sunscreeny. Because it's not outrageously expensive (about $25 for 2.7 ounces, vs. like $55 for 1.7 ounces of other clarins moisturizers) I reapply before stepping out of the office for lunch. A little goes a long way. One tube can stretch to about 3 months. On my third tube, and think I'll stick with this one for a while.

FAB. I've tried others, but this stuff actually disappears the fine lines under my eyes and on the sides. It does. I was trying a cheaper product, then i went back to guinot and voila. and it smells wonderful and the ingredients are natural. I love this stuff and i love guinot.

Lip Treatments -DDF - Glossy Lip Therapy w/ SPF 15

I love the texture, love the taste, love the look. But there's not enough gloss in the tube. I use it up WAY too fast. Like three weeks (bc i want my lips protected). I'd buy this again if there was more gloss in the tube. I will stick with my dirty girl raspberry lip balm for everyday protection.

Skincare - Face -Guinot - Longue Vie Cellulaire
repgal 12/16/2002 2:53:00 AM
Wonderful as a night-time moisturizer (there is no spf). It costs $72 for 2 ounces so it's on the pricey side. But it works. Packaging claims it has billions of plant extracts, amino acids etc. What I like about it is that a very small amount goes a long way, it has a thick dense feeling without somehow feeling greasy or heavy. The best part is when you wake up in the morning and your skin feels moist and firm. really firm. I love it and will stick with it. During the day I wear a guinot moisturizer w/ spf 15. You can buy guinot in some salons or online at skin1 which is affiliated with yahoo shopping. I was introduced to it bc a friend bought me a guinot facial.

Skincare - Face -Guinot - 1 step cleansing water
repgal 12/16/2002 2:48:00 AM
Fab. Cleanses/tones in one step and does not dry-out, seems to leave the skin feeling a tad moister even. Supple actually. Just squeeze on to a cotton ball (you really have to grip the plastic bottle though because the opening thingy is small... but that's good bc you don't waste anything) and wipe over your face. I usually do this twice because I'm weird that way. Anyway, follow with moisturizer. This is great when you've stayed over at someone's house, you just left the gym, or you overslept. Love it. It's like $25 for 8 ounces if I remember correctly.
