The YSL Baby Doll Collection is too much fun! Sweet & Sassy!
I just loved the Mascara Volume Effet Faux Cils Baby Doll ($30.00), which is available in four shades: Fetish Black, Wheedler Brown, Audacious Blue and Indiscreet Purple. I tried Wheedler Brown and let me tell you, this is not a sleepy brown mascara.

The multifaceted brush delivers intense color. The brush alternates thick, widely spaced bristles while the finer more closely spaced bristles coat the shortest of lashes to create a voluminous defined lash. The formula wears very well; it …

Photo Plasma ($69.00), a uniquely designed moisturizer from Perricone MD Cosmeceuticals, was formulated with mineral-based broad spectrum SPF 30: titanium dioxide and zinc oxide that delivers powerful anti-aging benefits, as well as efficiently and effectively protecting the skin against damaging UVA and UVB rays and other skin aggressors.
Besides loving Blue Plasma (along with many other products in their extensive cosmeceutical line — Chia Serum standing out in my mind, too!) I liked the fact that this product will not only protect my skin from sunburn, but is said to act at protecting against …

Nexxus has come out with a new product line that begins with the three magical words… Youth. Renewal. Rejuvenating. As I age, I long for the carefree days of my younger years: my skin was smoother and more supple; my hair appeared shinier, healthier and was effortless to maintain.
Nexxus’ new product line struck a reminiscent chord with me, and I was definitely willing to see if the products would give me back a small piece of my youth.
The five products included in the new line are Nexxus New Youth Renewal …

Being as pale as I am, tanning can be a trying pastime. Between choosing the wrong color and the usual awful self-tanner smell, I rather get my teeth pulled (I might be embellishing on that comparison). But Jergens, however, has changed the rules of the self-tanning game.
Jergens Natural Glow +Protect Daily Moisturizer Sunscreen SPF 20 ($8.69) gives you exactly that: a natural glow. My skintone doesn’t tan easily, and most self-tanners have to be layered for me to get a good shade. Natural Glow in Medium to Tan gave me …

AmLactin body lotion has been used in my home for many years. My mother suffers from severe eczema and dry skin — so much so, she does not grow hair on her legs. I recall her going to the dermatologist and being prescribed a medicated lotion called Lac-Hydrin. Lac-Hydrin (also known as Ammonium Lactate) definitely healed, exfoliated the dead skin and moisturized my mother’s skin.
Old Look
She began looking for an over-the-counter, lotion-type product that was comparable to the Lac-Hydrin prescribed to her. Her dermatologist recommended AmLactin. This was over 10 years …

Having reviewed Stila’s Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner in Snow last year, I started using the same eyeliner in Carbon Black, too — as it made a precise line very easily and never smudged nor feathered and was also long-wearing. I could go thick or thin, and I loved the felt tip’s cool touch when applying the color on my upper lash line.
This year, everyone went mad-crazy over both the Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner and Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner ($20.00) in Turquoise, making it very …

Exclusively from Asia, Lancôme introduces the new Génifique Youth Activating Second Skin Mask ($80.00). According to the manufacturers, it takes only a single application to “see more radiant, luminous and smoother skin.”
Each mask contains the same amount of product, as half of a 1 oz. bottle of Génifique Concentrate. Combining Lancôme‘s patented Génifique complex and expertise in bio-cellulose technology, Lancôme claims this mask “treats your skin to a new kind of indulgence.”
Because the pre-cut mask adheres to the contours of your face, it provides a “harmonious and intense infusion of …
