Got these from ChickAdvisor to try and review. I wear the Spa Footies to bed and wake up with softer, more moisturized feet. Although, I'm not sure if it's because my sweat trapped in during the night, or because of the infused Aloe... It keeps your feet warm during cold nights though! And they're super soft and comfy. I don't know if I'd buy it as a remedy for dry feet, but maybe in conjunction with some lotion it can do wonders. -

Polisher is a lightweight polishing paste that delivers shine, separation and a light, flexible hold to textured styles. Will not leave hair greasy, rinses clean.
I currently have above-the-shoulder, medium length hair. I permed my hair a couple of months back, and although I style it straight now, some of the curl reappears after I take a shower. I tried using the polisher on my damp hair to try to retain the curl. Although it did retain the curl, I didn't really like how separated the strands were. I was looking for something a little softer. It gives your hair a little bit of that "wet hair" look. I recommend it more for people who have short hair who want a soft, flexible, hold.

Part of Lise Watier's new Winter 2010 collection, the Frission Neiges is a light, soft fragrance that sort of reminds you of the powdery snow falling outside. It's definitely a homey scent for when you're ready to stay indoors and snuggle up with your significant other while sipping hot chocolate. -

Palette Jingle Belle is part of Lise Watier's Winter 2010 Collection. It features a beautiful set of baked eyeshadows that are ultra-pigmented for an iridescent glow. This set of 5 colors includes a brown, olive, fuchsia, purple, and gold, nestled inside a gold, crystal encrusted case.
I've been using this palette ever since I received it to review. The colors are gorgeous and blend well. A great stocking stuffer!

I've always wanted to try a compact powder for my oily forehead and nose, and this seems to do the trick! I love the packaging - after you open the lid, there's a compartment with about 30 sheets of oil paper, and then below there's the powder and the application pad.
I don't think I really got the right color for my skin, but the powder is translucent enough for it to blend in with my skin. It works well to absorb any oil. However, it does make my skin look more dry and cracked, but that's probably just my skin's problem. Overall, it's a great compact, but nothing too too special.

I use the Eclat Miracle as a primer before I put on foundation (it's supposed to be paired up with Lancome's Teint Miracle, but I'm sure you can use any foundation with it), for a perfect skin, radiant look. With just the Eclat Miracle serum on, your skin does really look dewy and radiant. Sort of like a "I just worked out" glow without the sweat :). The serum is packed full of light reflecting pigments that makes you glow. I haven't tried it as a "highlighter" but that is one of it's uses.
Just use your fingers to apply the product. No brushes needed.

This is my new favourite foundation. I usually stay away from any sort of foundation because I tend to have dry patches on my face that look disgusting when using the wrong foundation, but Teint Miracle kept my skin hydrated with great coverage.
The Teint Miracle is meant to be used with the Eclat Miracle Serum face primer, but even stand-alone, this foundation is amazing. My current practice for a perfect skin look is to first put on some primer to prep the face, then use concealer for any trouble areas, and then use the Teint Miracle. You can also double up on the foundation instead of using concealer.
I've been using my fingers to apply my foundation (I make sure they're clean!), but you can also use a foundation or stippling brush. The foundation "absorbs" into the skin quickly for a soft, powdery air-brushed finish, but I sometimes sweep some translucent powder over.
Completely worth the price :)

I had the best experience ever at SeeFu Hair!
My stylist was KAZUMA who is a very sweet Japanese man who had his training in Tokyo, Japan and did hair styling in Australia for a few years as well. I find that Japanese hair stylist are usually very well trained, especially when working with Asian hair because the texture is a little different.
I first explained to him what I wanted, and he made sure we understood each other before he did anything. Along the way he also explained what he was about to do and kept reconfirming the lengths I wanted.
After he did the main cut, I had my hair washed and head massaged. I'm not sure what brand they used (I'm sure you can buy it from their store) but it smells incredible! After my wash I was led back to my chair and had my hair towel dried with a neck and upper torso massage.
Kazuma was a perfectionist, to say the least. As he was drying my hair he kept trimming anything that needed to be removed. He also blew dry my hair bit by bit and flat ironed it in small sections to ensure perfection.
All in all, I got exactly what I wanted. I definitely recommend Kazuma to anyone who's going to SeeFu hair to get a cut. It's $35 for a female cut, after tax comes to $39.55. I spent under $40 for an amazing cut and found a hair stylist to last a lifetime. What a steal!

I received a sample of this product in 040 Soft Beige. It's quite a bit lighter than my natural skin tone, but surprisingly, it blends in and adapts very well as the line claims to do. It effectively hides the redness around my nose and mouth, and conceals and highlights the area beneath my eyes for a more awake and healthy glow. You can use it underneath your foundation or stand-alone.
I'm not too fond of the applicator brush. It's essentially a squeeze tube with a brush at the end where the product comes out. What I usually do it use the brush to get some concealer onto my problem spots, then use my fingers to tap and smudge it out. Other than that, it's a great concealer and brightener!
