Burt's Bees Herbal Complexion Stick

Stinky but works!

I got this when I was pregnant because I didn't want to use any of the bazillion types of acne creams that have less than great ingredients for those of us with buns in the oven. It doesn't smell great -- kind of like strong licorice, but it diminishes acne overnight without drying.

Elizabeth Arden Dual Perfection Brow Shaper and Eyeliner

Absolutely Perfect.

Non-messy powder says put. The color is perfect. Not too harsh or noticeable. Lasts all day. Absolutely the best brow product on the market.

Laura Geller Balance - N - Brighten

Dirty Face!

I have pretty pale skin and this stuff made me look like I had been playing in the backyard and needed to wash my face. Almost comical results.

Juice Beauty Blemish Clearing Serum

Fascinating results...

I got a sample of this stuff and it cleared up my skin like gangbusters! So I bought a whole bottle and... not the same results. Maybe it's a one time deal and then your skin gets used to it? Or the stuff in the sample was magical and the full size... not so much!

American Beauty Enduring Beauty Longwear Lipcolor

Beautiful non-drying and long-wearing color.

I love that it comes in an actual tube that doesn't require creepy gloss on top. It lasts until lunchtime without drying my sensitive lips out. Also comes in lovely colors and is a great price.

Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs

No way.

Absolutely the grossest my legs have ever looked. And where can you apply it? The backyard??

Dr. Denese Advanced Firming Facial Pads

Extremely Effective

I agree with the other reviewers: I noticed an almost-immediate difference. I used these in the months leading up to my wedding and my pictures don't lie. I have sensitive skin and had no problems with these being irritating. They made my skin tone much more even and glowing.

Prescriptives Flawless Skin Concealer SPF 25

Good coverage, Long Wear

Lasts all day, doesn't settle TOO much into fine lines, and Prescriptive's color selection is unbeatable. The only complaint I have... put powder or mineral foundation on it and it looks like a cakey mess.

Simone Chickenbone Chicken Poop Lip Balm

The best stuff out there, hands down.

Smells fantastic, not too greasy, lasts for hours. Even my husband loves it!
