    Paula's Choice Pure Mineral Sunscreen SPF 15

    A must for those sensitive to sunscreen

    This is a definite must for those whose skin cannot ordinarily tolerate sunscreen which is so important. It does leave a bit of a white cast on the skin and I would love a higher spf rating. It is reasonably priced, wears well, is an effective sunscreen, and is fragrance-free. I also like that you can purchase inexpensive samples to try before you buy full sized products.

  • Paula's Choice Barely There Sheer Matte Blush

    All of the colors are sheer and natural looking on my light-medium combo skin, These blushes feel silky and easy to blend and build. They do not dry out, block my pores, or irritate my face and wear well. The price is reasonable and the packaging is effective.

  • Paula's Choice Barely There Sheer Matte Tint SPF 20

    This is a great casual foundation. It has an effective spf of 20. It is very comfortable for my ultra sensitive combo skin, on a day when my skin is red and itchy or am in a rush, yet I want to look polished. It has a glowing matte finish. The neutral color blended easily with my light-medium skin. It provided a sheer natural coverage-enough to even out my skin coloring and hide some flaws. I like the tube packaging and it is not too expensive. It did not cause my skin to feel too dry or too oily or break out with acne or irritate my sensitive skin. It will be a staple in my makeup kit.

  • Pantene Pro-V Restore Beautiful Lengths Smoothing Balm

    I have fine. straight, hair and rub a small amount of this on my hands and smooth flyaway grays. It does not make my hair greasy or flatten it if I use a tiny bit, it keeps the frizz down, and the price is right. It is a bit heavily fragranced, but okay. I like the pump, but test it before you buy it, because I have had to return a couple due to bad pumps.

  • Clearasil Ultra Vanishing Acne Treatment Cream

    This is better than other acne creams because it quickly absorbs and disappears. It does not leave ever leave white residue on my face, it is inexpensive, and works.

  • Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge for Lips and Cheeks

    Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge for Lips and Cheeks

    Nice, but not worth the money

    This blush was a nice natural looking color that was easy to blend and lasted all day. I thought it was a little bit drying and expensive and I did not like the idea of applying with my fingers from the jar. I will use the sample but do not like it enough to buy it.

  • Aveeno Ultra Calming Foaming Cleanser

    Aveeno Ultra Calming Foaming Cleanser

    Causes problems it promises to soothe

    This product gave me very itchy, bumpy atopic dermatitis. I am very unhappy as this product specifically says it "helps visibly reduce redness and calm dry, irritated or sensitive skin while gently cleansing". It also says it is hypoallergenic. When my face broke out, I did some research on the ingredients and discovered that feverfew used in the product as a calming ingredient is actually known to commonly cause allergic skin reactions as it is in the chrysantemum and ragweed family. Many people with sensitive skin are also allergy sufferers. Huge disappointment!

    Neutrogena MoistureShine LipSheers

    great low maintenance lip product

    Love the price, love the colors (spring blossom and sun berry), love the spf 20, love the moisturization. I am not sure about the cool, tingly thing, though.

  • Estee Lauder Double Wear Zero-Smudge Lengthening Mascara

    Estee Lauder Double Wear Zero-Smudge Lengthening Mascara

    Outstanding mascara that is REALLY Zero-Smudge

    This is a lash saver for those of us who usually have to use waterproof mascara due to chronically teary eyes. It thickens and lengthens nicely, clumps a little bit, but has a nice brush that easily fixes that. Best of all, it is great for sensitive eyes and completely stays put all day. This is the first mascara I have ever tried that does not smudge AT ALL by the end of the day, even on watery eyes. It removes very easily with warm water so it is easy on the lashes but probably not the best for hot tubbing. It is a bit pricey, but the results are outstanding if you are looking for smudge/tear-proof.
