Clinique Superbalm Lip Treatment
.25 oz
Item # 504274
Price: $11.50
Deeply hydrating balm that helps to repair distressed lips and replenishes moisture loss.
I always have had problems with my lips: they tend to be very dry and have cracks…Moreover, I had the mania of removing pieces of lip skin and sometimes made me blood. have used the peach, raspberry, and clear colors of this. They all go on thick and stay on well. The colors are sheer and not overpowering. My only complaint is the small tube for the cost, but it does keeps my lips moisturized and soft. I can guarantee you I had tried a lot different products, but this is the only that works for me and make me happy :) )))

TNS Recovery Complex, the core of the SkinMedica line, is comprised principally of Nouricel-MD and has been clinically proven to reduce fine lines and wrinkles and sun damaged skin. The biotechnology of the skin’s natural healing process has arrived with the first tissue repairing complex containing growth factors found in normal, healthy skin.
The TNS (Tissue Nutrient Solution) Recovery Complex System with NouriCel-MD, a research based cosmetic ingredient only found in TNS, is comprised of natural growth factors, antioxidants, matrix proteins, and soluble collagens, to help restore what time takes away.
This product is fantastic! Wrinkles really diminished considerably with the use of this product. It is pricey, but well worth it! My doctor recomended to use it twice a day for the first month. Then keep on using it once daily. It works but But the smell is (to me) reminiscent of sweaty gym socks. Fortunately, the smell fades as the product dries. Note: you have to use a great moisturizer for this to work - I am currently using Atopalm face cream and it works well in combination.
There is a “Stock Up & Save” promotion: Buy four TNS Recovery Complex, get a fifth TNS Recovery Complex absolutely FREE. That’s a 20% instant savings. But unfortunely, this offer can not be combined with coupon code. Right now, there is a 20% off coupon code listed at gogoshopper.com. So you don’t need to buy 4 to get the sicount!

I prefer stick foundations because they are so easy to use & less messy,..and this is a really great one. The SA said the coverage is between the TM and liquid foundation, which was exactly what I was looking for! I have this in Natural, I’m Asian with yellow undertones, fair-medium skin color, and Natural matches me perfecly! I wear this everyday and it’s really convenient to put on, just draw a few streaks on my face, blend with fingers and then I’m ready to go. It looks great even without setting it with loose powder.

ck IN2U Her from Sephora.com


Tuesday, April 17th, 2007

ck IN2U Her
1.7 oz Eau de Toilette Spray $36
3.4 oz Eau de Toilette Spray $50
5 oz Eau de Toilette Spray $60
6.7 oz Body Moisturizer $20
6.7 oz Body Wash $15
Introducing ck IN2U by Calvin Klein. Two new fragrances, one for him, one for her. ck IN2U her is a fresh floriental, combining notes of pink grapefruit, sugar orchid and neon amber to create the ultimate sensory experience of fresh, warm and sexy. Fresh but warm; a tension that creates sexiness. Notes: Redcurrant Leaves, Sicilian Bergamot, Pink Grapefruit Fizz, Sugar Orchid, White Cactus, Red Cedar, Neon Amber, Vanilla Souffle. Style: Spontaneous. Sexy. Connected.
Oh, wow, a CK I could call signature-worthy! I think this scent is a definite improvement over previous Calvin Klein concoctions. I smell no strange notes as was experienced by the previous poster. I love this scent even though I didn’t expect much when I tested it. This is a fragrance that’s more nighttime than daytime although I’d be tempted to wear it all the time: a bit angular and sophisticated but still very easy to wear and I love the cool, smooth, milky white bottle. Everyone’s chemistry is different, thus what may smell terrible on one person can smell very pleasant on another. It works totally for me! It’s a bit sharp in the opening with a nondescript fruitiness and a strong cedar note, but then it mellows into a mysterious, dry vanilla dry down which I think is the best part. It reminds me of Kenzo KenzoAmour (especially at the end) and CK Euphoria Blossom just a tiny bit, but it’s a unique scent–a little hard for me to describe but it’s distinctive and has really made an impression on me. I haven’t come across a CK ad campaign that I like but this is not only my favorite CK to date, it’s currently one of my favorite fragrances of all time. It’s fresh, warm and sexy, indeed.

CRABTREE & EVELYN, LTD. Gardeners 60 Second Fix, Hand Recovery Kit from Beauty.com

CRABTREE & EVELYN, LTD. Gardeners 60 Second Fix, Hand Recovery Kit
Contains: Hand Recovery (100g, 3.5oz) Hand Therapy (100ml, 3.4 fl oz)
Price: $25
Absolutely brilliant. The best hand care product I have ever used. Crabtree and Evelyn have hit a homerun with their Hand Therapy and Hand RECOVERY. The Hand Recovery is amazing - instant smoothness! This product will make your hands sooooo soft and supple! The Recovery only has to be used occasionally, when hands feel rough, after gardening, etc., once a week to once every few weeks. You apply it to DRY hands and massage it in, it has TONS of exfoliating granules (sugar?), and then you rinse with warm water and pat hands dry… the emollient oils will stay on and soak into your newly exfoliated hands. I used this before my wedding; it’s awesome! The hand THERAPY is like a hand cream that you can use every day. I apply it to my hands as the last step of my beauty regimen, and after only a few minutes it has completely soaked in, with no trace of greasiness. My hands are soft and never cracked, year round! I highly recommend these products to anyone who wants luxurious, supple hands! When followed with the Hand Therapy, the results are wonderful.
Now till 2007-12-31, if you spend $50 on Crabtree & Evelyn, you’ll get a 3.4 oz La Source Hand Therapy ($14 value) for FREE!

I bought this shaver a week ago. it shaves almost as close as the blade with very little passes. For me, it took a week for my face to get used to this shaver. the cleaning feature makes a bit of a noise, but it leaves the shaver clean and lemony fresh. The trim feature is so-so. It feels kinda scratchy. I recommend using the electric pre-shave lotion. I’m not sure if electric shave makes the whiskers stand, but it does lubricate the skin so that the razor glides with very little effort. Other than that, I don’t see any difference in this lotion. Be ready to have nasty razor burns for the first few days. If you havn’t used a foil shaver before, I suggest that you use this shaver first on a Friday evening so that the razor burns will be healed by monday. Also, pick up a quality after shave balm like Neutrogena Razor Defense.

Kiehl’s Leave-In Hair Conditioner


Saturday, April 7th, 2007

Leave-In Hair Conditioner
4.2 fl. oz. $17.00
8.4 fl. oz. $29.50
With Panthenol and Coconut Oil. Contains UV filter to protect hair from sun damage. Restores shine and suppleness to dry hair.
This product contains a UV filter to facilitate the protection of the hair from damage by the sun. This outstanding leave-in hair conditioner and grooming aid is created especially for thick, frizzy, dry, or damaged hair that tends to be difficult to manage and tangled. Our nurturing treatment restores shine and suppleness to dry hair, detangles, and creates a revitalized hair appearance as it conditions. Since this treatment remains in the hair, it continues to nurture between shampoos.
This is one of my MUST-HAVE products–I always have a second bottle on hand for when I run out of the first. As others say, it it truly moisturizing, does not weigh hair down, doesn’t make it crispy or stiff, and works well with styling products. This leave-in is different. It is a white creamy-fluid which has a slight medicinal scent (it goes away in a few minutes). It is weightless in my hair. Best of all, it is actually moisturizing. After I’ve blown dry my hair, it is shiny and swingy–looking sooo healthy. It doesn’t build up and rinses cleanly–no sticky feel to it at all. I use it on damp hair but I may experiment using it on wet (but towel dried) hair.

Anna Sui - Eye Color - No. 800 3g/0.1oz
Rec. Retail: $20.00
Now: $10.00
Beautiful pale frosty+shimmery yellow, i just love this color to wear as a wash on my lids, with a bit of smokey brown eyeliner for regular “going to school/work” days. I looooove this. Very nice texture that blends effortlessly. I got this eyeshadow for free for spending a certain amount of $ at the A.Sui counter. The packaging is kind of annoying because you it’s a screw-off top (ugh), but i’ll deal :) Nice! i would definately repurchase if need be :)
