Eminence Citrus Exfoliating Wash!

Well Tracy you introduced me to the Eminence skincare line in Bend and I love their products. I have started using their Citrus Exfoliating Wash and I love it. You can't use it every day or it will dry you out but I use it every 2-3 days and my skin feel like new. It is for oily to normal skin and it is perfect for me. I give it 5/5 crowns for my skin.


Eminence Exfoliating Wash is $38 USD and you only use a pea size amount and water to cleanse your face. Once again I use this exfoliating cleanser only once every 2-3 days and my daily cleanser is the Eminence Stone Crop Gel Wash. I will review it at a latter date.

Well hello there!

Hello all! and Hi Sarah and Hi Jane :)

This is so much fun - I can't believe we finally started this!

OK right off the bat I've got a good one!!! This one is going to be tough to get in the States - sorry Sarah. They won't all be like this. :) And if Jane gives it 5 out of 5 crowns (trial rating system I thought up! Like it?) then we'll ship you some. Jane run out and get some Evelyn Charles Coco Mango sunless tanning lotion. Smells amazing - unlike most self tanners, is light weight not greasy, goes on evenly and it makes a difference to your current skin color quickly. I'm going to get a vat of it tomorrow if they still have it in. It's a seasonal product. It's going to get me through the next two rainy weeks of August so I'm not white and pasty for the long weekend.

You are right Sarah - this blogging is fun!!

Oh, I've got one more - wow, and I was worried I'd have not much to contribute right away! - MAC has a few new mascaras out and I just bought a tube of the Plush Lash mascara last week. It's not very expensive - I think it was about $15 CAN - so not bad at all. It's not as thick as Chantelle's DIORShow mascara but it goes on really evenly and is more lengthening than thickening I've found so far. It's about 3.5 out of 5 crowns for me right now. Time will tell!

How's that for a kick off post....

Love you girls!!!

Dr. Pepper Lip Smacker! One of my all time favorites.

So I hate it when you try a new chapstick and when it wears off your lips are more cracked and dry requiring addictive reapplication every 10 minutes just to keep up... well with the Dr. Pepper Lip Smacker this does not happen. Even when it wears off my lips feel better from using it. The Dr Pepper Lip Smacker is one of those things I recently re-discovered. I loved it as a child and teen and recently saw a tube of it at a Drugs and had to buy it for old times sake. I realized how much I had missed this little lip treat.

It adds good moisture, lots of shine, a hint of color, a nice flavor and scent. Forget lip plumpers... I think my lips look more plump with my lip smacker. The only negative I can fault it for is that it does not have any spf sun protection in it so beware you can burn your lips if you are out in the sun applying this product. Despite that I love it and I keep a tube in my center console of my car and can't live without it.

What can I say expect this item will stay in my beauty regemin for a long time.
