Philosophy Purity Made Simple High Foaming Daily Cleanser

Philosophy's popular cleanser-ReFormulated

Okay, so I bought Pholosophy products wayyyy back when it first started, and stopped. I've seen this brand really grow! This cleanser has like a cult following, and I decided to buy the foaming cleanser because I love the foam. It's really nice! How it feels in my hands, and then on my face is so gentle, the bubbles aren't super-cold on my face and the foam spreads easily. I used it a little around my eyes, and lived. The smell is soft and clean. The only thing I can say that's negative is- I have to wash my face twice, especially if I've used mineral makeup. No biggie. I still like it.

CoverGirl LashBlast Volume Mascara

What's so great about LashBlast?

Nothing. I just can't believe so many people love this mascara! The brush is huge and the bristles on the wand, short and hard to maneuver at the corners of the eye. I have to comb it through right after application, and the formula dries so slowly... It kinda sucks, but just saying...

CoverGirl Outlast Lipstain

OMG this is the worst product of its kind!

I was thrilled to see Cover Girl came out with a stain. Priced right too. I bought the most natural looking shade, and was surprised to see that the applicator tip stayed relatively dry and ineffective as soon as I tried using it. There isn't any way to increase the flow of stain into the tip either, and it barely managed to trace my lower lip, forget about the top lip. I tried using a little water to moisten the tip and that barely worked. Even when stored upside down, gravity did not help it work any better. This product really sucks. Totally useless.

Cosmedicine Healthy Cleanse for Oily Skin Clarifying Cleanser and Toner in One

This is an awesome product.

This line is serious skin care. There aren't any perfume-y products in the lot. The Healthy Cleanse cleanser+toner is simple straight forward and so mild and effective, my sensitive skin even loved it. I actually believe my skin has changed in a good way ever since I started my Cosmedicine regimen.
