Brows -Prestige - Brow Building System
sdelory 1/23/2013 6:20:00 PM
Love it, I bought it in blond and it is perfect. It goes on so much better than the MAC brow gloss which I find goes all over the place and doesn't build your brow the way this does. I wish I had of picked up 2 of them as it was on sale as Pharm Plus for $5.00, so much less expensive and better than the MAC product.

Treatments -Garnier - Sleek and Shine Moroccan Sleek Oil Treatment
sdelory 1/22/2013 5:03:00 PM
I have fine blond colour treated shoulder length hair which damages easily and will frizz, I have tried many products, some drug store and some very expensive high end oils and serums but this is hands down the best, it's amazing! I tried it a few times and was so impressed I went and stocked up on a lifetime supply (3 extra bottles) as I'm terrified they will discontinue it. This sounds so corny but it changed my hair, every time I wash and blow dry my hair I apply this to my damp hair and I have a great hair day every time I use it and that is saying A LOT :)

Oh this is a tricky product, first tube was basically a disaster, when I but it on it was pale and flaked but I started playing with it and it really is amazing once you get the hang of it. I put my moisturiser on and then just dab a bit of this on where I need it, for example fine lines above my upper lip and yes it's a miracle, they are gone! Then I dab a little bit of foundation over using my damp beauty blender sponge and it is perfect and stays put. It takes a little playing with but it's a great product once you get the hang of it. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 is it shouldn't be that difficult to figure it out and the directions aren't helpful if you wear makeup with it.

Liquid -L'Oreal - Visible Lift Smooth Absolute

Excellent product; actually better than many of the more expensive highend products I've tried. It goes on so smooth and provides great coverage without being too much. I don't mind the brush, I put a bit on my face using the brush and then use my beauty blender to blend it in.

BB Cream -MISSHA - Cho Bo Yang BB Cream

I use the Marcelle BB cream but it doesn't have sun protection so I thought I would try this one; Pros Sun protection Good coverage Very smooth ( I use the Beauty Blender to apply) Doesn't cause breakouts I ordered online and got lots of great little samples along with it! Cons What is up with the colour?? I am fair with Scottish/English/Irish colouring and it is still too light. I ordered the light thinking it would be good for my fair skin, it was too pale, so I ordered the dark to mix them and the dark alone is still too pale. I also noticed it has whitening properties in it, maybe it's an Asian thing. So if you are a woman of colour or have any colouring at all for that matter, this will be way too pale for you and pale in a greyish pale. I'm thinking I might get a very dark foundation and mix a little in as it is a good product other than the colour.

BB Cream -Marcelle - BB Cream Beauty Balm
sdelory 4/21/2012 5:21:00 PM
Love this product, a bought both the light and the darker shade and mix them together. Goes on beautifully ( I use my beauty blender when applying) and it has replaced my regular foundation. I find it gives good coverage and covers my sometimes blotchy skin (redness). My only negative is I don't think it has sun protection so I use my Murad oil free cream with SPF15 in it before putting this on, but I did that with my regular foundation any way.

Well I normally always check the reviews of a product before I purchase so I'm very glad I didn't with this one,because I probably wouldn't have tried it based on some of the comments here. I found this to be amazing, I now LOVE the colour. Spent $200 on highlights a few weeks ago with my regular guy who normally does great colour but he talked me into extra bright blond for spring....big mistake, way too bright and too yellow. Left it a few weeks and still didn't like it so off to Shoppers and found this amazing product for $14.00, I love the toned down colour now and the condition is great. I left it on for 7 minutes, rinsed in the shower, let the conditioner sit for a few minutes, did a gentle shampoo, a bit more conditioner and excellent results including silky hair. I would buy it again in a flash but hopefully I won't have to!.

Crème -Avene - Couvrance Compact Foundation SPF 30
sdelory 1/5/2012 11:52:00 AM
I love this now that I have figured out how to use it. First it looks darker in the compact then on your face. You must use a damp sponge to apply or it doesn't work - the beautyblender sponge is perfect for applying this. I love the bulit in 30 sun screen as I don't want to have to wear sun screen as well. I have very sensitive rosacea prone skin, so I put my medicated cream on and then this and it's excellent coverage and I'm not all greasy by the end of the day. Again proper application with this product is key.

Love this, got it as a sample and just purchased full size. It is a beautiful day mascara - long lashes but not too thick or clumpy.

Love it, it's $26 but I use it everyday and it's a beauty standard, the woman at the counter told me to replace it every few months but I do it more like once a year (It comes with an extra "band")...... just look at it from a cost per use point and it's all good :)

This is good. We are having the most humid summer this year and my fine strawberry blond hair tends to flip and frizz. I have tried soooo many products both expesive and drug store brands and have found nothing really works that well, until this....... it actually works!!
