  • Mario Badescu Skin Care Mario Badescu Special Healing Powder

    I get some horrible acne cysts that (OK maybe I shouldn't squeeze them) leave me with some awful scars. I apply this right before my mineral makeup to conceal the redness. It really does heal the scar within a matter of days. I had to take off one star, though, because it's mostly talc. I don't have a problem with talc, but if my skin is flaky, the talc emphasizes the flakiness. In that case, then I only use it at night.

    N.V. Perricone No Foundation Foundation

    Need more than one color

    I, too, got a sample of this. I've never been convinced that a "one-size-fits-all" foundation was a good idea. No matter how much I blend, this stuff made my tan skin look zombie-like. However, it's light and doesn't make me break out. I use it only underneath my undereye concealer. Otherwise, it's much too expensive to only use on Halloween.

  • L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Million Lashes Mascara Black

    OK, I really wasn't expecting to see a million lashes on my face. (It would have gotten in the way of my eyeglasses, anyway.) But I was expecting volume... Didn't really get that, either. However, it's good for everyday daytime use. It defines and separates and makes me look alive.

  • Rodial glamtox Eye Light Pen

    First you have to figure out how many clicks you need to get the blob of concealer to the brush. Although it's nice and creamy, I found it difficult to apply directly from the brush (messy!), but if you use your fingers to spread it, you need a light touch, otherwise you may end up rubbing it off your skin. It was way too light for my dark circles. (The circles went from dark tan to a ghostly gray color... EEK!) Another good thing is, it stays put for a long time, so I think it would last through a Halloween party... assuming you're dressing up as a zombie...

  • Jessicurl Too Shea! Extra Moisturizing Conditioner

    I've been searching for the perfect leave-in conditioner, and this is about as close as it gets. Although I believe this was created mainly for deep conditioning, it's rich consistency works wonderfully as a leave-in for thick, curly hair. It tames the poofiness and frizzies even on humid days. I also love the fact that it's all natural and it disappears into your hair without feeling like you've left any gunk in it. It might be a little heavy for fine hair, but I highly recommend it for thick, thirsty curls.

  • Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus Wrinkle & UV Damage Corrector

    So, I thought I'd try this on my fine lines and freckles (and more recent maturity marks and uneven skin tone), to see what happens... waiting... waiting... It's been about 3 months, and I haven't noticed anything different. My pores were not that big to begin with, but they're not any smaller, either. I give it two stars, because (1) it doesn't break me out and (2) it feels nice under my make-up, but then, any primer can do that, right?

    Mario Badescu Skin Care Healing Cream

    Bye-Bye Hydrocortisone Cream!

    My skin doesn't just flake after a pimple dries up, but because of the seborrhea, I peel like a snake! I use this and the redness is gone almost instantly. When used with other MB products, the only flake left is me! *8) Finally! Clear and smooth skin! A little goes a long way, so it's worth what you pay.

  • Mario Badescu Skin Care Mario Badescu Healing & Soothing Mask

    I suffer from both cystic acne and seborrheic dermatitis. Benzoyl peroxide products didn't work very well on my acne and it aggravated the seborrhea creating a horrible, damaging cycle. Once I discovered the MB products, the change has been incredible! Once I got rid of the acne cyst (with the Drying Mask & Buffering Lotion) I used this mask. The redness and flaking disappeared!

  • Mario Badescu Skin Care Mario Badescu Drying Mask

    I use this anytime I'm feeling my skin oily and/or bumpy and it helps to keep any pimples from coming to surface. (The sulfur smell can be a bit strong at first, but I've gotten used to it, so I don't even notice it anymore.) If I've been lazy and I do breakout (I have horrible cystic acne), I combine it with the Buffering Lotion and the pimple disappears within a couple days. I said "bye-bye!" to that moisture-depleting benzoyl peroxide!

  • Mario Badescu Skin Care Mario Badescu Buffering Lotion

    I all but gave up on my huge cystic pimples, until I happened to come across this online. This was my "Obi Wan Kenobi", my only hope. I tried this and the (6-week!) cyst had diminished significantly within two days! (Once I combine it with the drying mask, I can make any pimple, no matter how big, completely disappear in 2-3 days.)
