Benefit Cosmetics Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Brightening Liquid Foundation
Love this product. I keep reading that it has yellow undertones, but I haven't noticed that - and I am very fair-skinned with pink undertones. I use the 'petal' shade and really like the subtle radiance this foundation gives. It gives me a dewy glow... +
Love this product. I keep reading that it has yellow undertones, but I haven't noticed that - and I am very fair-skinned with pink undertones. I use the 'petal' shade and really like the subtle radiance this foundation gives. It gives me a dewy glow that I have been trying to achieve for years and never figured out. -
Dr. Brandt microdermabrasion age defying exfoliator
Got this as a sample from Sephora, and I didn't hate it but I wouldn't really recommend it. It has a strange grittiness to it that I haven't found in other similar products, and I felt like it was hard to rinse off. I think the Body Shop vitamin C... +
Got this as a sample from Sephora, and I didn't hate it but I wouldn't really recommend it. It has a strange grittiness to it that I haven't found in other similar products, and I felt like it was hard to rinse off. I think the Body Shop vitamin C microdermabrasion product is just as - if not more - effective, and at a lower price point. -

I've been using this product for about a week and a half, and I'm happy with the results so far in terms of improving overall tone. I will be curious to see if it has significant effect in fading a spot on my cheek. The directions indicate it has to be used for several weeks for maximum effect. -
Peter Thomas Roth Cucumber Gel Mask
Got this as part of a little set from Sephora and really like it. It's cooling and refreshing for hotter spring/summer weather, and makes my skin feel clean and smooth.

I've tried the Pearl and Green Tea fabric masks from Sephora and like the quality of both. They're a wee bit pricey, which is a drawback. The sent of each is subtle and pleasant, and the fabric is thick and stays in place well. I'm a fan of fabric masks in general, but I think I'll stick with the Life brand sheet masks from Shoppers Drug Mart which are about a quarter of the price and just as effective. -
NIVEA In-Shower Nourishing Body Milk

I was extremely skeptical about this product, but I got a free sample of it in an issue of Glow magazine so I gave it a try. I was right to be skeptical. If you really want to put on lotion while in the shower and then immediately rinse it off, go for it, but I don't think you need a special product to do it. Useless. And has an unpleasant fragrance. -
GLAMGLOW THIRSTYMUD™ Hydrating Treatment

Just tried this for the first time (got it as part of a three-masque kit from Sephora) and so far I am in love with it. Apparently you can use it as an overnight moisturizer, and I may try that at some point, but I wanted to try it as a rinse-off masque first. It smells so good...kind of coconut and sugar, I would say. I have combination skin, and it has been super dry for the last several weeks. I left it on for 15 minutes and then rinsed off the excess and my skin looks so much better already. -
Buxom Full-On Lip Polish
I have this product in three colours - Sparkling Bubblegum, Candy Apple Red, and Dollface Pink. I like the pink shades better than the red, which goes a little orange on me. It tingles when you apply it, which I enjoy, but might not be for everyone... +
I have this product in three colours - Sparkling Bubblegum, Candy Apple Red, and Dollface Pink. I like the pink shades better than the red, which goes a little orange on me. It tingles when you apply it, which I enjoy, but might not be for everyone. It stays glossy and a little sparkly and wears really well. -

I got the Moonshadow Baked Palette "In the Tropics" on sale from the Sephora website, so it was an excellent price. The colours are very subtle and shimmery, and go on nicely over a primer (see my rave review of Urban Decay primer potion). If you apply the shadow dry, it is very pale. I've experimented using a wet brush, which lets you get a lot more pigment. I don't think I would pay full price for this palette, but on sale it was a good deal. -
GLAMGLOW YOUTHMUD™ Tinglexfoliate Treatment

Forgot how much I liked this stuff. I got some as a free sample from Sephora and then ordered it, stashed it in my makeup bag for a special occasion, and forgot to use it! Just used it and my skin feels baby-soft. It's probably the best exfoliating masque I've ever tried. It reminds me of a product I used to get at a natural products shop, which was a green clay powder you mixed with a little water and then applied. It smells very pleasant, gives a bit of a tingling sensation as it sets, and exfoliates deliciously. The only drawback is the price. -
