1-2-3 Moisturize!
While I'm not a huge fan of the 3-step system myself, I really like the 3 step, the Dramatically different moisturizing GEL! (DDMG for short lol) it's so light but it still gives me the right amount of moisture to my skin on oily days - I love the pump they include with the bigger sizes and find that to be a great selling point for me atleast! they scent is very vague, but even though clinique claims that it's not scented I still pick up a very cleans smell which is not strong or offensive in any way!

this was the first MAC product I ever bought, and boy was I happy I did buy it! - it conceals any blemish or odd mark I might have on my face, and it's SO easy to work with - I usually apply it with just my fingers when I'm in a hurry, but sometimes I use the 217 or the 224 brushes to apply.

Who doesn't know it? - the cute little yellow jar with the red writing on it that we all know and love so very much
I myself have been LOVING this lipbalm ever since the first time I used it two years ago, I just fell in love wiht how well it healed my at the time, dry, cracked lips while still smelling and feeling fantastic! - It has a really nice pepperminty, vanilla-ish scent to it which goes very well with the colling tingling sensation it gives on the lips. the concistency is very nice and the little jar will last you FOREVER, AND as if that wasn't enough, did you know that carmex NEVER expires? - I certainly did not until I read it! - I carry a little jar of this in my kit aswell to use on clients, and they all love it just as much as I do!
so let's just sum up what's really so great about this lipbalm:
- It soothes and heals
- It protects against dryness
- has no taste
- lovely scent
- feels great on the lips
- VERY affordable
- last's forever
-cute packaging

This really is a great stable foundation for anyone who wants coverage, sun protection at an affordable price.
I being the lucky owner of problematic skin have a great deal of spots areound my face aswell as blemishes that needs coverage in order for my skin to look perfect. I bought this after hearing so many people raving about the coverage it gave them, and I must say I wasn't dissappointed myself.
It glides on the skin so smoothly and creates a nice semi matte finish, while covering the red blemishes and disguises the scars. But even though its covers really well I stil have to use my trusted MAC studio finish concealer in the corresponding shade NC35.
I myself don't really have problem with the scent, but I know this could create unwanted trouble for people who are sensitive to fragrances. It carries a chemical scent which lingers on the skin for a good 2 minutes after application, but goes away after that. I also find that the spf in the foundation sadly does not react very well with flash photography SOMETIMES, because even though it leaves me looking like a ghost in some pictures, it also has a tendency to make me look flawless and not casper-ish at all sometimes!

CAN you say A-M-A-Z-I--N-G? - cuz that's what this product is!
Nivea released this product not to long ago, it promises a 95% natural product free of parabens, silicones, mineral oils and colourants - but that doens't mean it's gonna be amazing, does it?
Luckily it is in this case, this very light, slightly scented body milk is amazing at doing what it's supposed to do MOISTURIZE.
At first I was very skeptic about it, since it says it's for dry skin types, my body skin leans towards the more normal kind, so of course I didn't think it would work out for me. I must say that I was pleasantly supprised by how it felt on my skin, it was very moisturising but still not greasy or oily feeling, which I experience with most body butters and milks. I definetly think that Nivea could sell this for much higher of a price, but I'm really glad they don't, because this is a product I will purchase again and again and again
