Peter Thomas Roth Gentle Complexion Correction Pads

It works

I've used these a few times and they really help keep the zits at bay. I generally prefer them in the summer as they can be too harsh in colder months. They smell peachy, too!

Tarte Cheek Stain

Sheer to stay

Imarts just the right dose of color. It's great for warm months (the gel formula stays on in clammy weather) and cold (when powder blush seems to highlight dry skin and lines). Also, it feels cool when it first touches your cheeks. Nice.

Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare Maximum Moisture Treatment

Nearly perfect

This rich but non-comedogenic moisturizer is great for flaky winter skin. It absorbs nicely and leaves a dewy but not greasy feel.

the Balm BalmShelter Tinted Gloss SPF 17

Yum

Smells good, tastes good and imparts just the right amount of color.

AmLactin Daily Moisturizing Body Lotion

Sometimes what works ain't pretty

Yeah, it stinks and stings a bit but it's one of the only products I've tried that calms my stubbornly dry and irritated winter leg skin. At the pharmacy it's "under the counter", meaning you have to ask for it at the pharmacy counter but you don't need a prescription.

Lancome Definicils Pro Mascara

Still #1

I've tried as many mascaras as lipsticks (um, hundreds?) and this is still my #1. Never a raccoon eye, although by late afternoon there might be a sexy little smokiness. Best in noir but any flavor will do.
