Too Faced mascara…similar to Kiss Me

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

I recently bought Too Faced’s lash injection mascara and love it. It’s very similar to Kiss Me, though it’s not as oil proof as Kiss Me (it sometimes slightly smudges w/my oily skin), but the overall quality is great–it gives much thicker lashes than Kiss Me and can be layered. I’m super happy with it.

Great neck cream

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

In follow up to my previous post of my favorite neck cream treatments, I’ve recently started using Bliss Spa’s Thinny thin chin and really like it. It’s much lighter than Dr Brandt’s V-Zone neck cream, so it’s nice for a change of pace.

Blackhead removal tool

Friday, January 4th, 2008

For several years now I’ve been using this great tool I got from Bliss Spa. It’s the Antoine de Paris blackhead extractor. As Bliss says on their website, “if you’re going to ‘pick’, you might as well properly equip.” So true! I’m a picker–I admit it–I cannot stand the sight of a big blackhead on [...]

favorite anti-aging neck treatment

Monday, October 29th, 2007

Call me crazy, but I’m paranoid of a sagging neck when I get older. I wear sunscreen religiously on my neck and chest, but lately have been trying different products for night and under sunscreen. I’ve come up with two products I really like. The first is called “Face and Body Nutrients, Anti Aging Mist” [...]

new favorite face sunscreen

Monday, October 29th, 2007

Just when I thought I would look no further than the Derma Doctor sunscreen, I was in NYC and the airline lost my bags, so I had to beeline to Saks 5th Avenue in the morning before my meetings! I went straight to the Laura Mercier counter to get make up, and came across their [...]

Derma Doctor – LOVE IT

Friday, August 31st, 2007

I’ve not been using this line for about a month now and I must say, it’s the best line I’ve come across for oily acne prone skin yet. The acids are quite strong and I’ve noticed a marked improvement in pore size and reduction of blackheads. It’s also excellent at eliminating acne–even the cystic kind [...]

Stop using deodorant for life

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

Yup, I’m serious–this product will literally stop your BO completely to the point where you only need to use it every 4-8 weeks!! My brother has been using Lavilin Long-Life deodorant for about 15 years now. He’d told me about it, but I tried it and thought it didn’t work. Here’s why…. Basically this is [...]

Derma Doctor – my new favorite skin care line

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

I poured out a bunch of money at Sephora recently. I was a little afraid that it was marketing hype, but I already can tell that I am going to love this line. It’s got the highest concentration of salicylic acid you can sell on the market and has heaps of other good acids us [...]

Mac Flidline Eyeliner – more….

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

I’m so hooked on this stuff I went to the Mac store yesterday to buy more. I bought one called “Rich Ground”. I tried it today–it is soooooo pretty! It’s a bronzy brown color. I was a little afraid it was going to be too sparkle-ish, but it’s not. It goes great if you’re doing [...]

Mac Flidline Eyeliner Rocks!!!

Sunday, June 24th, 2007

I had my eye make up done at the Mac store last weekend and discovered the Fluidline eyeliner. That stuff is awesome! It’s the best eyeliner I’ve ever used. It’s in a tub and you apply with the Mac eyeliner brush. You have a good 60 (!) seconds to blend. It stays on as well [...]
