Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Talc-Free Mineral Loose Powder
Will never buy Bare Minerals foundation again
I am not a fan of Bare Minerals because it makes me look old, dry (even after using a ton of moisterizer first) and enhances my wrinkles and pores. I do however like the Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Loose Powder because it covers just as well, doesn't settle into my wrinkles or pores and doesn't go on chalky as long as you have used a moisturizer first. I have used it for about a year now and a few of my friends now buy this powder instead of Bare Minerals. I use my own brush because the brush that came with it is too stiff. Some reviewers didn't like the packing but other than it is too big to carry in my makeup bag, I like the how the cap covers the holes so I can shake some out first before opening the cap - it doesn't create a mess for me.

I have used this concealer for years and continue to buy it. It's not as good as Mac and other higher end concealers, but it is the best inexpensive concealer I have used. As long as you use an eye cream before applying the concealer it does not cake and is very easy to blend in. It does a good job of concealing dark circles and blemishes. I've turned my "will only use high end product" sister and friends unto this product.

This is like your typical thin eyebrow pencil, but with tweezers and a brush attached which make it great for travel or for your purse. The pencil applies fairly easily to my eyebrows, and the brush is small but almost the perfect size. I do not like the attached tweezers but they are better than nothing for emergencies, like pulling a splinter from my finger at work.

This balm has too much peppermint oil in it for me. I like that it is made of natural ingredients but it goes on too waxy, and when it has absorbed my lips feel drier than they did in the first place. I will not buy this balm again.

Fragrance junkies will like this! I have fine hair but needed something to control flyaways. This conditioner makes my hair very soft and shiny, and actully makes it look like it has more body. The smell is great, but you have to like strong scents to like this. Avoid this product if you are sensitive to fragrances. My nieces are in love with this product and took mine home so I had to replace it. I don't see any super moisterizing ingredients other than hydrolyzed elastin, vitamin E and betaine, but it seems to work better than some of my salon products.

I don't usually spend a lot on eye makeup remover because I find some of the drugstore brands to be just as effective and gentle as the department store brands. I wear contacts and my eyes are very sensitive to oily products, so I was a little leary about buying this product since you can see the liquid vs. oil layers. But after shaking this bottle up I barely feel any oil, and it removes all of my eye makeup with just one or two swipes. It's great! No missing eyelashes!! I use it just on my eyes so I can't comment on it as a face makeup remover. This bottle is large and is well worth the $10 cost. I will purchase this again when I eventually run out.

This product does live up to its claim of making your teeth look whiter but it does not stay on for long. I have to reapply it often. I do like the colors.

I love the sparkles for night time wear but the product does not stay on for long. And DO NOT rub your eyes while wearing this or you'll end up with the glittery substance everywhere. It does apply easily but kind of a pain in the rear trying to remove all of the sparkles - I have to apply eye makeup remover several times and then wash thoroughly.

This isn't a lip gloss I would wear out because it is too glossy and doesn't stay on long, but when I am at home I use it all the time because it is cooling and moisterizing when applied and smells yummy too.

This applies like a lip gloss. Nice and shiny. I like it in Honey Drizzle because it gives me just a touch of neutral color. This is not sticky at all and hydrates well. This is a great lip product for the over 40 woman...and for younger gals as well.
