Disney Takes Down Their "Sexy" Version of the "Brave" Princess

My night-time ritual includes cleansing my face and using Olay Regenerist night cream. I have added to that ritual lately becauseI got a small trio of Ole products as a reward from Sephora. It'll probably last a month though, because I use such a little amount. I remove the lid of this greenish gel (that looks like aloe vera gel) and dip the tip of my finger into it, smoothing that teeny amount over my whole face. It is light, essentially fragrance-free, and leaves my skin looking smoother and younger but I probably won't buy it because it costs a pretty penny and can't be found at the drug store. But does it work? Oh yeah.

I got a sample of this scrub by Zirh and used it before realizing it was meant for men. I thought the smell was like kitchen cleaner and although the scrub wasn't horrible, it wasn't meant for my dry, sensitive skin. It's really for oily skin and I can see why it's for men.

DDF Oil-Free Moisturizing Dew is light and soaks into the skin without irritating it but it may not be moisturizing enough for those with super dry skin. It's a great light moisturizer for sensitive skin if you have the extra cash because it's pretty expensive.

All moisturizers with sunscreen leave my reactive skin with a burning, stinging rash...except this one. The Feverfew (in same family as Chamomile) must have calmed my skin while leaving it soft and moisturized. I'm very impressed. And it actually turned my husband's sunburn on his bald head and my daughter's sunburn on her thighs from red to tan. After they burned! No peeling! It's a cream for the whole family!

I usually use the Big Flipper Zoya remover but I wanted a little itty bitty bottle to use conveniently in the living room. The OPI for Sephora bottle was it. It provided great removal of freshly accidental swipes but for older, dry polish, not so. With older polish i had to rub pretty hard, especially with my dark polish atop base coat.I'd get the same results from the cheap drug store remover.

Keeping this cool spray on a table beside me makes me feel rejuvenated just thinking about it. I close my eyes and mist my face several times a day. If I'm wearing make-up or even if I'm not, my face feels cool and refreshed for a few measly bucks. It doesn't irritate my reactive skin either. I've had the spray for over a week and I mist it over my face 3 or 4 times a day and since 2 bottles came in the package, I say it's a worthy luxury.

If you have members of the family with skin issues, this castille soap shouldn't cause reactions. My daughter gets hives if I use typical store-brand laundry detergent and insect repellent and I have reactionary skin. We use the lavender soap for laundry and repellent and peppermint for other cleaning jobs. I keep a spray bottle with each in the garage. The key is figuring out the correct soap-water ratio and it's always surprising how much water you use. It lasts and lasts.

I honestly love this lip gloss and own several. I think the fig smell and taste might be part of it. But with the gloss, you don't HAVE to put on color if you don't mind just a hint of color. I own Praline, Sugarcane, and Honey Glaze. The Honey Glaze can go over any color lipstick as it has very little nude color and Praline is a cool peachy gloss, terrific on its own. It costs more than a drugstore brand, just slightly, but I think it is worth it.

Since I react negatively to sunscreen in face cream like many people with sensitive skin, I was excited to get this sample of REN's spf-free cream. It's pretty thick so if you have oily skin, it may be somewhat heavy for you. Since I turned forty my skin went from normal to dry so it doesn't feel too heavy to me; in fact, because of the thick consistency, this sample has already provided three uses. Maybe the high price is really not that high after all in the long run. But I did take a star off because the price is a hefty chunk of change at the initial purchase.

Although somewhat pricey, this toner is awesome! It's cool, refreshing, and nonirritating. It feels luxurious when used with a cotton ball because it feels like liquid silk. It feels creamy and moisturizing, and it removed all remaining make up and grime left after cleansing my face. If you have the money to spend on this toner, go for it!
