I with Denise on this one. Mary Kay is the best skin care and make up by far. Plus you can not beat there prices, not as inexpensive as drug store brands but not as expensive as Department store brands. The quality of the products is outstanding. Try the new Mary Kay TimeWise Repair!!!! Made in Dallas, Texas USA.

As a nutrition consultant what I know is that beautiful skin and hair begins with healthy skin and hair, which begins inside your body. The skin is the largest organ of your body and the only one that is simultaneously both on the inside and outside of your body. As such, what you put in your body is as important as what you put on it (and what you don't). For healthy, radiant hair and skin, my favorite beauty product is USANA and their Sensé line of topical nutrition for the organ called skin. The supplements are top rated and the hair/skin line is free of nasty chemical preservatives like formaldehyde releasing agents and Parabens, which have been identified in breast tumor tissue!

I usually go for make up no make up look with luminous effect and just define my pout.For this reason I always rely to:
Estee Lauder: illuminating base primer
zero smudge lengthening mascara
ideal light brush-on illuminator
Revlon : Photo ready foundation
Mac : blush
blot powder
lipstick in snob or pink nouveau
Nars lipstick in schiap

It only takes 10 minutes and you're done. Hope it helps. :)

If I'm just climbing out of the shower - late as usual, hair dripping - I take two minutes to do the following: Aveda brilliance hair emollient (smells as amazing as perfume and makes my hair smooth and untangly all day), charcoal eyeliner, mascara, and Garnier Skin Renew dark circle eye roller. Then my hair's nice, I smell amazing, and I look like A) I spent time putting on makeup and B) I slept... All night.

The winner, though, if I could only pick one? Definitely Garnier's dark circle eye roller. Works miracles on puffiness and circles.

I agree with Carol Weston, Arbonne! It is the best product I have found! It is pure, safe and beneficial. Botanical and parabin free. Re9 anti aging is a awesome line and the baby line love it!

  • Ann - commented on Oct 8, 2012

    I too used to be an Arbonne user. Then, I discovered how much sun damage I have. Now, I use Rodan + Fields and actually like it better. Take a look for yourself: https://annbuckner.myrandf.com/Pages/OurProducts/GetAdvice/Perskinality happy to send you a sample ann

My favorite skin care products are Jafra's royal jelly line. I use royal jelly milk balm advanced on my face every day. It has sirtuin activators and cellspan complex for a youthful radiant glow. I also love the royal jelly milk bath and body complex. They smell so clean and are absolutely refreshing.
