Since there seems to be no way to write reviews without entering the contest, and I'm not getting any responses on either Dear Total Beauty forum or in an e-mail, I'll write my reviews on a few products here.

1) L'oreal Paris Age Perfect Day Cream
---------------------------------------

This did nothing but make my eyes burn even though it never actually got into my eyes. Also did nothing for fine line or wrinkles. I also did not like the strong odor.

2) L'oreal Paris Hydra-Renewal Continuous Moisture Cream
--------------------------------------------------------

Way too watery or thin. The consistency was more like a lotion, and because of that it did not absorb well-hence no moisturizing effect. Same strong odor too.

3)Nivea Q-10 Advanced Wrinkle Reducer Night Creme
-----------------------------------------------

The only thing I liked about this was the pretty blue jar. After using it nightly for about 6 months (I was determined to get results!), it did nothing for my fine lines and wrinkles.

And now for two products I LOVE:

4) Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream
----------------------------------------

I've been using this nightly for about a month and a half, and I felt a difference the first time I actually used it. It blends smoothly, absorbs quickly, and most importantly for me, it moisturizes as well as firms! Too many anti-aging creams made my skin "tight".

Although it comes with complicated application instructions to get the maximum benefit, I've seen benefits from just using it the normal way.

5) Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 30 and 45
----------------------------------------------------------

The only con to this is the white streaks or residue that forms if it is not blended evenly. Otherwise, it's the best sunblock ever. Non-greasy, light scent that does not "smell like the beach", and gentle enough for the face. I used to use Coppertone SPF 30 lotion, but it had that "beach" smell with a greasy consistency to boot! The scent is light enough not to clash with fragrance or deodorant.

Thanks for the reviews :)

I just purchased Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock a few days ago because I had read that it is good for oily skin.

I will be sure to rub it in real good:)

You're welcome to both of you. I needed that. :-) LOL

I've wondered if the Olay Micro-Sculpting cream was any good. I'm pushing 30 and starting to see crows feet and a hint of laugh lines (probably as a result of my sun worshiping teen years). Thanks for the two cents.

I want to add that with the Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream, a "little goes a long way". So that jar will last awhile! And even though it comes with complex application instructions to get the "maximum benefit, using day and night", I've seen results from applying the cream like any other cream. The instructions say to apply liberally and massage your face a specific way. It would probably takes only around 5 minutes, but ONLY after you've mastered that technique, which would take more time I'm sure, and days at least. And I don't have that kind of time!
