Oh how I have fallen in love with this product!!!!
I have sensitive skin, as mentioned before, but am also lucky enough to get dermatitus on my hands.
On Friday my right hand was terrible, flakey and itchy, driving me insane. I put the hand cream on twice a day, and today (Sunday) it is almost gone.
I wish I took pictures to post.
I can not rave enough about this and to top it off it was only around $15!!!!

Well after just over a week of using Clinique I would definately reccomend. My skin hasn't reacted at all - and thats washing, toning and moisturising twice a day.
The moisturiser I received was the wrong one for my skin. So I haven't used it since, but will be buying the right skin combination moisturiser soon. I have used my cousins moisturiser and love it!!
My skin is soft and more even toned and I believe clearer aswell.
At lot of people say they cant afford Clinique, but I was actually quite surprised at the price. It ends up being around $30 a product, $50-60 for the large quantities.
if you a looking for a skin cleaning sytem I definately reccomend trying clinique!!!!

Well I have been using Dermalogica for a year. I have had problems finding a cleanser to suit my skin,which suprised me. My favourite product from Dermalogica is the Daily Micro Foliant. I use it 2-3 times a week and moisturise afterwards.
So I decided after my cousins several storied reccomending Clinique to try some. It is cheaper then Dermalogica, but then again Dermalogica nearly lasts a year in the larger bottles. But I bought the 3 step program - Face wash, toner and moisturiser, Lip Treatment, Spot Treatment and got a few samples from the lovely girl at Myers.
I love the face wash and toner,but at the moment am not fussed on the moisturiser I find it to oily for my skin and leaves me looking like a shiny wax doll.
The spot treatment works a treat, helping to dry out those unwanted spots, and the Lip Gloss/treatment is great aswell. I think it really helps my dry lips.
So far my skin has not reacted at all to Clinique - touchwood! The cleanser I give an 8/10, The Toner I give a 9/10 and the moisturiser a 4/10 - at the moment.
The spot treatment a 9/10 and the lip tratment and 8/10.
If you have the money to spend I definately reccomend trying Clinique.

Loreal Happyderm Skin Exhilarating Moisturiser

This has to be one of my favourite products. A light weight moisturiser that absorbs fairly quickly. There are 2 sorts available 1. Sensitive Skin and 2. Normal and Combination Skin. I use the normal and combination moisturiser. I find that it leaves my skin soft and feeling moisturised, unlike some that I find just cake on, and it has a lovely light rose fragrance. Unfortunately I'm finding it harder and harder to find, which is typical, find a product you like and it disappears. I pay $15.99 a bottle and think it's worth every cent.
I'm very fussy with my make up, partially due to my sensitive skin. I don't wear foundation to often but always like to wear mascara. I don't wear waterproof mascara as I have always been told it damages your eyelashes and I never believe product packaging. I always buy and try, I find this is the best and only way to figure out what is best, if I don't like it I give it to my mum, who happily takes them. I'm always after a mascara that doesn't clump, and washes off easily. Max Factor Masterpiece Max is one of my favourites. I use the black mascara and absolutely love it. I find it doesn't clump unless you use it more then 3 times in a row and washes the majority off with just water, completely off with make up remover and I don't need to scrub at my face to do so.
I've had my mascara since Feburary - yes I know that must be one of the make up sins, but it still applys wonderfully.
I definately reccomend trying Masterpiece Max

Well today I bought Revlon Beyond Natural Foundation in Light 210.
The claim is the foundation starts out white and as you blend it in, it will transform to match your exact skin tone.
Now this is my opinion so I can't say it's 100% accurate but in squeezing out some foundation I noticed little dark dots-microbeads. These beads are what contain the coulour so blending them bursts the microbeads and releases the colour.
Does it match your skin tone perfectly? No not completely, but I must say it is almost perfect.I have olive undertones, but am pale at the moment as we are just coming out of winter. I used 210 light on my skin, and as said before it is almost a perfect match.
As for coverage it is not the best. Once on I found the foundation light weight and matte. After almost 5 hours I needed to add a little powder to control the shine. I have oily,combination skin so this would be why.If you are after a light weight,light coverage foundation just to even out your skintone I would definately reccomend this. I paid $29.95 and will be using again.
On a slightly different note I have extremely sensitive skin, not to the elements outside, but chemicals in products. I have had this foundation on all day and have not reacted at all. I say this just in case there are others out there like me and are not sure wether to buy this product due to this reason.
