Olay Body Age Transform Intensive UV Defensive Serum
First to recommend
Description
WOW! I absolutely am in love with this stuff. I was using Sally Hanson Flawless Hands with SPF 20 (which I have recommend in the past, mainly for the SPF), which I liked the texture of ok, however it was not fantastic. What I did love was the SPF (as the poor hands often get forgotten with the SPF....however you should not forget this as you do not want age spots, etc. on them). Well, this new line of Olay Body (I've been using the Body Serum and loving it) has a serum with SFP 15 to use for arms, hands, etc. I bought this to use exclusively on my hands, and WOW! It make my hands feel soft, the texture is light and most importantly this absorbs very nicely into my hands! A definite new favorite!!

Smashbox Lip Brilliance

Description
This is a fab. lip gloss compact that comes with 3 colors. I have Stage 2, which has shimmer mauve, shimmer gold pink and shimmer coral. So, so pretty. I really like this not only for the beautiful colors, but how it feels on the lips. Very smooth and moisturizing and not at all sticky.It also lasts longer than most lip gloss. I put this over my long-wearing lipstick and look gorgeous all day! Seriously, I have never tried anything from Smashbox that I haven't loved. I think this is a very underrated brand!

Description
Having a well groomed brow is next on my list after flawless skin. Well, here is the ultimate product to give you that flawless brow. This stuff puts Benefit's Brow Zings (and I am a fan of that product) to shame. This stuff will give you the most amazing groomed looking brows (and the stuff is budgeproof to boot). I use No. 0 (light taupe brown).

Iridescent Powder/Pressed in Star!
First to recommend
Description
I love this powder in Star! It looks very similar or NARS Orgasm. I use this powder over my blush and on my temples to add a glow. The glow you get is similar to any of the Bare Escentals Radiances (in color this would be closest to Pure Radiance). I like that it comes in a compact, where the BE is loose. You will glow like a goddess with this one.

Peter Thomas Roth Instant Mineral SPF 30
First to recommend

Description
This stuff is awesome. I ordered it from skin-etc.com (only $21.00 compared to $30 at Sephora and QVC).
If you have not seen this yet, it is a clear mineral powder that is a sunscreen with SPF 30. It comes in a brush applicator which you can carry in your bag and reapply throughout the day. Let me also say I have never used anything by PRT that I haven't really loved.
I have very oily skin and this stuff is amazing. Does not make my skin oily or greasy, in fact it helps cut down the shine factor. I love that it is sunscreen I can reapply during the day (as I currently use lotion sunscreen under my makeup). Very cool stuff.

CoverBlend Concealing Treatment Makeup SPF 20
First to recommend
Description
I just discovered this foundation and it is the most amazing I have ever used. I cannot believe how amazing it makes my skin. It is more like a skin treatment than a foundation and it has SPF 20. It really makes my skin tone even and radiant. It also looks very natural. You don't need very much. This makes goddess skin easy!

Description
"Physician-strength beauty products at an affordable price!" is the tag line for this site and they aren't kidding. For the brands they carry they have the absolute best prices I have seen. Keep in mind that for many of the price discounts you need to actually add the product to your cart to see the discount (for example with the PTR Mineral Powder Sunscreen, it shows a price of $30, but once you add it to your cart it shows $21.00). Also their delivery is super fast. I've actually gotten mine the next day. They are like the Zappo's of skincare! I can't recommend this site enough.

Sensé - Eye Nourisher
First to recommend
2 people recommended this item
Description
This is the most amazing eye cream I have ever used. I don't have many lines, etc. around my eyes. I also have never smoked and drink plenty of water (both things very good for your skin). However, I do want my skin to look as good as it can, and this eye cream really makes a difference. This really minimizes the few lines I do have so they are not visible, and it also makes the texture around my eyes extremely smooth.
