For my everyday neutral natural look, I love this line of Bobbi Brown's lip colors. I have Brownie Pink, Cocoa, Beige, and Bare. I love them, they are really natural looking. They are really creamy and my lips feel nicely moisturised when I wear them. They apply nicely, they don't bleed or feather, and they last really well for me, I am not contantly reapplying them because the pigment saturation is great. I find that all of the colors I own look good with just about any color scheme of cosmetics I wear on any particular day. I have also recommended them to my friends as well as purchased them as gifts for friends and family. I have read many positive reveiws for this line, and I can see why so many people love them, they truly are one of the nicest lip products I have used. I also plan to add a few more to my collection because I like them so well. The tube is very elegant, yet understated, and they fit into my smallest handbag just fine for touchups, even though I rarely have to touch up. The lasting quality of this line of lip products is excellent, and not terribly expensive as other high end products that just don't perform as well for me.

I receieved thisproduct for fee to test and review. I really liked the packaging, I kept the product in the refridgerator and the metal applcator felt nice and cool on my skin. I found it to be moisturizing, but it idn't really do anything for my dark circles or the puffiness under my eyes. I have never used Mary Kay products prior to his, nor o I know ayone who uses it. I found it to be ok, I did notice a slight change in my lines, but it was only temporary. I found no reall change as far as making my lines go away, a slight temporary diminishing effect, but nothing really long term. I found it didn't irritate my eyes, but it contains no sun protection and my usual product does. I do prefer a product with some sort of sun protection factor of some sort. I think this would be a great product for some, but it just isn't my ideal product. I will not purchase this, but it was nice to have the opportunity to try it out.

I was given the opportunity to try these as well as review them. The last time I tried to wax myself was many years ago and it was not a pleasant experience. I ripped skin off as well as the hair, but that was over twenty years ago, and home waxing has truly come a long way I am pleased to say. I had just epilated the day before I received these, so I had to wait to use them until the hair was actually long enough to be removed. Epilation hurts, and I thought that it was less dangerous than wax in my hands. I prepped my legs by washing as well as exfoliating. Epilation sometimes leaves me with a few ingrown hairs, so I wanted to make this an effective test. I put the strips in the box out on my deck railing in the sun to make sure the wax would be soft enough to grab all the hair it possibly could. They were extremely easy to use, placement was simple and I was able to get 3 to 4 uses out of each strip. I did cheat a bit. I couldn't rip the strips off of myself fast enough to lessen the pain, so I had my husband rip them off for me. He did it much faster that I was able, and it was less painful than the epilator. I would use these again, the kit was great and the Perfect Image Wipes were great. This is a great kit and I have to say that I am no longer afraid of wax now. It removed the hair, the irritation didn't last long, and I am so happy with the results. I have some dense areas of hair and the wax strips worked just as well on the thicker areas as well as the finer hair. I believe that the strips removed 95% of the hair on the areas I used them on. I did it before I went to bed and the next morning, my legs weren't irritated and they felt really smooth. I am curious to see how long the results last. I would love to free up some time, and if these work, I shall have an extra hour or two to do the things I want rather than removing my body hair. I think this is a great product for beginner or expert.

I adore these duos, and I find that they really complimebnt each other. The blushes are the best in my opinion, hands down, and the bronzers are very subtle and warm. They don't oxidize into some weird orange or make your face look dirty. They apply very nicely, they wear very well, and the finished look is very natural, not overdone. You don't have to use a lot of product for good color payoff either, the pigmentation is just lovely. I think they are a bargain for the end result. The packaging is really nice and sleek and small and thin enough to carry in most handbags for touch ups, tho you don't have to really touch them up. They are a wonderful idea and product.

Sun Laboratories Strictly Faces Self Tanning Lotion
Sun Laboratories Strictly Faces Self Tanning Lotion
This is the best self tanner I have ever used on my face. I have some hormonal acne issues and am very oily, and this product didn't make me break out at all. I use it at night and when I wake up, I have very natural looking color on my face. It looks like I was on vacation at a beach with out the sun damage. This product doesn't streak or look orange and in my opinion is the best self tanner available on the market. A little goes a long way, and you can layer it for more color intensity. It doesn't have that horrible self tanner smell either. This is a product I will always have in my bathroom!

I was sent this product to review from Total Beauty. I have to say I have tried many facial hair removal products, from laser hair reduction, which was painful and not as effective as I would have like, waxing, also very painful and irritating, electrolysis, very expensive and left a few scars, and other depilitory creams like Surgi-Cream which left irritation and red areas so I would have to use it at night so the irritation would fade by the next day. I did a patch test and I had no problems with the Olay Smooth Finish Facial Hair Removal Duo. I did, however have to stop using Retin-A Micro for a few days prior to my first use. I followed the directions and applied it. I knew it was different because I didn't feel that immediate burn I have experienced ier facial hair dipilitories. I left it on as was directed and I was amazed, the hair above my lips was completely gone, my unibrow was gone, and the hairs on my chin were gone and I had no irritation like I have experienced with other products like this. I am really impressed with the results. My skin was very smooth, not one trace of hair where I applied it, it didn't smell as bad as other products I have tried, and my skin didn't burn and I had no red marks where I had applied it. I am really glad Total Beauty allowed me to review this product. I may not have tried it otherwise based on prior experiences with products similar to this. I gave it a 10 because up to now, it has been the best product I have ever used to remove facial hair. I plan on purchasing it after my trial set is gone. I am totally sold.

I prefer a powder foundation and decided to give this one a shot. I was able to get it in a color that blended seamlessly with my skin tone. I am really oily, but this helped me stay matte rather well. I didn't have to touch up either. The texture is really nice, and I used a brush to apply it, the sponge puff just didn't work very well, but applied with a good brush, this product does very well as far as creating a nice finish.

I love bronzers, I really do. I live in Michigan and during the long winters here, anything that makes me look like I have a little glow is good. I really liked this bronzer. I tried at Sephora, and fell in love. I love how nicely it applied, it didn't make me look muddy or dirty, it looked very natural. I am really oily, and this didn't oxidize to some hideous orange shade either. I like the compact, I can recycle it, and you can't beat the price, it's on sale where ever it is carried. I hope that it isn't being discontinued, it is really a great bronzer.

I was invited by Totalbeauy.com to host a party featuring Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair products. I am using the night moisturizer and I am seeing some really positive results in my skin. My fine lines are diminishing, my deeper lines are smoothing out. This product doesn't irritate my skin, nor does it make it feel oily. I am really pleased with the results I am seeing and the longer I use it, the results are more pronounced. I will definitely repurchase this line of skin care. It is really working well for me.

I was invited to have a party featuring Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair eye cream and I am very pleased with the results I am seeing. I have used it for a little over two weeks and I am noticing a real difference. My fine lines are almost gone, my deeper lines are smoothing out quite nicely. I like the way the product feels on my skin, I like the results I see in my skin. I have found that it doesn't affect my cosmetic application or wear, and I use it in the morning and at night. I can't wait to hear the feed back from my guests. I have encouraged all of them to join Totalbeauty.com to reveal their experiences as well.
