Clinique Makeup Almost Lipstick: Black Honey

Updated Nov 2, 2007

4 people recommended this item

Description

This is the one lipstick that I never leave home without. I love lipstick and buy/try as many as I can, but this is the one lipstick that will ALWAYS be in my purse. I happen to love the more sheer lipsticks and lip glosses, which is what this is, but I have friends that wear more matte lipsticks that love this as well. It looks good on everyone I've ever seen try it and is good for both day or night. If you've never tried it- try it now!

LUSH

Updated Sep 16, 2007

Description

There always has to be LUSH in my house. I love that every item is handmade from fresh, natural ingredients.

My favorite I-can't-live-without-this-items are their decadent bubble bath bars. One of their bath bars lasts me at least 4 baths, and often I mix parts of a couple of bars together to create my own fragrance. These bubble bars contain baking soda and other natural ingredients that form huge bubbles and make the bath water soft and silky.

Amandopondo Bubble Bar. Made with Turkish Rose Absolute and Lemon oil, there's never a bad time to use this.

Bathos Bubble Bar. Scented with Violet, Rose Absolute, Jasmine Absolute, Bergamot, Clove and Ylang Ylang, Bathos is the first bubble bar I ever tried and one I ALWAYS have in my house.

French Kiss Bath Bar. Classic Lavender fragrance.

They have several stores in the United States (and across the globe!). If you get the chance you've got to visit one and experience LUSH firsthand. If you can't get to a store, try one or all of these bubble bars and I guarantee you'll be hooked for life!

Rodan + Fields: UNBLEMISH oil absorb blotting papers with Zincidone

Updated May 6, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

I remember when face blotting papers were still semi-hard to find.

Now, it seems that every beauty company has their own blotting papers. They all seem basically the same- they blot away all of the oil that you didn't realize your face produced so much of and leave your face with a lovely, matte finish.

Ready for the next level?

Rodan + Fields recently launched UNBLEMISH oil absorb blot papers with Zincidone. Sounds the same as the others, right? But not quite. They claim that these blotting papers
actually reduce excess oil over time with continued use. They're even offering a money back guarantee.

I've only been using these for a week or so, maybe 1 paper a day, and I can't really tell how it's working. Granted, I'm not a super oily person, but my t-zone does get quite shiny, especially when the weather gets warmer. My skin looks great so far though.

Right now these are a little hard to find. The retail price is $19 for 60 sheets.

LORAC Lip Gloss Stick

Updated May 6, 2007

1st to recommend

Description

If I were stranded on a deserted island...

Seriously though. This is the one lipstick I make sure to take with me wherever I go. It's just that perfect.

First of all, it moisturizes. Enriched with all natural sunflower seed and Hawaiian macadamia seed oils and flavored with just a hint of vanilla.

I use Sheer Berry, the darkest of the four shades offered. But it's pinky brown color is not dark at all. It should be added to the list of the best colors for any skin tone because, like Clinique's Black Honey, all of my friends can wear this color. One swipe deposits just a hint of color on your lips. Perfect for day. Two swipes deposits noticeably shiny color on your lips. Perfect for day or night.

Retails for $15.

by Terry - Light-Expert Foundation Brush by Terry

Description

I have very pale skin that tends to be a bit oily on my t-zone (forehead, nose, and chin). It's usually best if I don't wear any makeup during daylight hours because you can see everything I put on. I've tried any number of liquid/cream foundations over the years and have basically given up on them in favor of a light powder. But every now and then I give in to a whim and buy a liquid/cream foundation. My latest spontaneous purchase was this. I had a free shipping coupon from eLuxury and I bought it in the lightest shade, Rosy Light.

And?

It's wonderful. I don't need/like much makeup and this gives me exactly what I'm looking for without looking like I had help from anyone but Mother Nature. It evens out my skin tone just enough to make it look flawless for daytime of nighttime. It covers the dark spots under my eyes when I haven't slept enough without drying out the sensitive skin under my eyes. It doesn't make my face oily or dry or gross in any way, even after it's been on for six or eight or ten hours. So far I have only used it for light touches here and there, not all over my face. I found that when I use this I no longer need to use concealer as well.

Here are some of the product details (from eLuxury):

* Luminescent foundation that bathes the skin in light
* Foundation brush filled with featherweight concealing foundation
* Skin-plumping formula blends to smooth fine lines
* Contains seven anti-aging substances and vitamins

The packaging is exquisite as well. Purple is not normally my favorite color, but in this case the color adds to the elegance of the package.

Go get it now! According to eLuxury, it's only available in the US through them for a limited time!
