It may be store brand but so what! The store is Sephora!!! I love it because it looks great and makes my lips feel super soft. It comes in about 30 sheer, shimmer and rich color shades. The cool part is that some of their sheer colors mute and neutralize certain colors. For instance Blue Waters, a sky blue shimmer, mutes orange tones. How cool is that. It's only $10 and worth the money. Let me know how you like it.
New lipgloss requires prescription?!
Prescriptives' Moonbeam Reflective Gloss. It comes in a multitude of shades that will amp up your lips and not your overdraft fees. Yeah, it runs for $17.50 but it's so versitile. Wear it alone for a sexy professional look at work or slather it on top of your fav shade of lipstick for a girls night out. I already got mine, in Jupiter.

Oil of Olay...Not Just For Old People
I kid! I kid! But that's how good these face wipes are. Problem: I'm lazy and would rather have acne than wash my face at night. Solution:. I left my pack at my folks place and my mom got hooked. She kept that pack to it was cool because I had a back up pack. BS you not. There are a lot of other brands of face-wipes you can use but these are my favorite because they come in a resealable package and don't dry out nearly as fast as the other couple of brands I've tried.
I haven't tried it yet, but it looks like a clear winner.
BATTLE OF THE BRANDS
vs. 
I'm not a big fan of Jergens but I have to say, I was totally impressed with their Naturals collection. I have very dry and sensitive skin. So when I saw the new Jergens lotions on the shelf and I had to check it out. The scents for all of them are amazingly light, crisp and refreshing. I settled on the one specifically developed to to hydrate you skin. After using if for a couple of weeks during the coldest time of the year, it was a close call but Vaseline Coco Butter came out the winner. Both are easy on your wallet and I recommend both of them. I know for sure that when spring and summer come around. Jergens will be my number one choice.
Through the tests of time, it has forever come out a victor. I swear I've been using this brand since I was five years old; I'm 23 now.The LipSmacker BIGGY is a whopping .60 oz of lip balm. That's four times the size of their regular size. It's casing is a bit childish but it makes your lips so soft. It's lip balm with a hint of lip gloss. It makes my lips look so naturally moist and supple. My fave Lip Smacker is the BIGGY LipSmacker in Tropical Punch. It's soooo good! They aren't a top seller in stores, probably cuz they last so long, but I visited this site where you can buy whatever LipSmaker you want. It was so serious, I sent them an email telling them how excited I was to find a place where I can get a BIGGY LipSmacker.
Get Lips That Are SHOCKING!!!!!
I've got to give it to Rimmel London for coming up with some of the most unique cosmetic products out there. As you've probably noticed the product is a type of lip gloss that is called "Shock Gloss". It promises to give you super shiny lips that look like a plastic and give them a 3 dimensional look. The best part? You apply it with a spatula! So I bought it. I was sold when I saw the spatula was included. It's far from the best but it isn't bad. I'm not sure if I'd buy it again. I mean, it isn't expensive but I'm just not sure if I can get use to the way the hard plastic spatula feels on my lips. And my lips don't look and bigger than they usually do....At least I feel sexy when I'm applying it while sitting at my desk at work.
You won't get cancer from smoking these....
I'm talking about your eyes silly! I'm a fan of the smokey eye effect but when I do it it never looks quite right. So whenever I come across tips on how to perfect the look, I'm all about it. Recently I was surfing the net and came across these babies. They're called EyeEnvy by ColorOn and only sold at Sephora. They're appliques that are long-wearing. crease-proof and, for folks like me with sensitvie skin, they're 100% hypo-allergenic. I haven't tried them out yet, but if anyone has let me know if it's a worthwhile investment.
