Clarins Sheer Bronze Self Tanning Hydrating Gel

Clarins Sheer Bronze Self Tanning Hydrating Gel, $28
The perfect self tanner for the face, indulge in a fresh, melting gel texture that imparts an incredibly natural-looking tan in less than two hours without the sun. Promotes an even, long-lasting tan skin soft and moisturized, protects against free radicals.
This product is so fantastic! I have been frustrated with how my skin on my face is much lighter than the skin on my body and this product has completely changed that! The skin on my face and neck glows and the slight tan lasts a while. I only use a pea sized amount every other day and I have been keeping my tan. I love how it gives my skin tone an overall even appearance. Yes its pricey but if you buy the clarins self tanning kit at sephora you get the full sizes for WAY less. This stuff is $50 on its own but the kit is only $47 so I estimate your only spending 17 on this products IF YOU BUY THE KIT(full sizes ladies) plus you get the self tanning gel (again full size) and the orange cleanser. When I run out I will be repurchasing at sephora and getting the full kit. Why spend $50 to get just this when you can spend $47 and get a cleanser and a tanning gel for the face and body as well.

The Origins of Lethal Injection
Monday, January 7th, 2008
Today's Supreme Court hearing on Kentucky's death penalty may be a prelude to the end of lethal injection nationally -- or perhaps the end of the three-drug cocktail common across the country.

by Terry Light-Expert Foundation Brush
Price $54.00
Luminescent foundation that bathes the skin in light. Foundation brush filled with featherweight concealing foundation. Skin-plumping formula blends to smooth fine lines. Contains seven anti-aging substances and vitamins. To use: Click and dab brush over areas where skin needs light coverage; blend with brush. Made in France. Exclusively available in the USA at eLuxury for a limited time
I’ve longed to try this By Terry product since I first clapped eyes on it on someone else, and I’m happy to say that it has lived up to my hopes. The light-reflecting pigments and hyaluronic ingredient (or so I surmise) do really plump up the look of the skin and give a soft-focus effect on fine lines and pores. I use the brush to dab it under my eyes and around the t-zone, and then use my fingertips to quickly blend it outwards in a light patting motion. The result is of ‘naturally’ (ha) pretty, glowing bare skin! Coverage is sheer¡ªjust enough to even out skintone. Note that this isn’t a foundation for days when you want a picture-perfect canvas; this is more like a sort of lingerie-for-skin as it were, making naked skin look better. I like to wear this over the Colour Skin Enhancer in Abricot, but have also worn it successfully over the Clarins Lisse Minute primer. It has even pipped my other darling (the sadly discontinued Steph¨¤ne Marais fluid foundation) to the post as my favourite light foundation¡ªand that’s a big call for me. I do wish it came in a squeeze tube or pump bottle instead, as I found the brush rather stiff and unwieldy, but oh well. All up, it’s a *lovely* find, and I shall quite definitely repurchase as needed…I also look forward to buying another shade or two as well!
