    Default What Are Your Favorite Beauty Products?

    For micro-dermabrasion I use Susan Lucci's products.I love Dr Perricone's Alpha Lipoic Acid lotion for my face, it tightens my face and makes my complexion very clear. It's an anti-aging product. Its pretty expensive at $95 for a small vial like bottle but its worth every penny. I also like Aloette Cosmetics anti-aging skincare line.For makeup I like Bare Essentials. For my body I like to use a homemade salt scrub made from olive oil mixed with salt.

    I do my own facials, manicures and pedicures.

    I use the Clinique line of skin care. My skin is very sensitive to it is about the only thing that works. It is expensive, but it helps that I have a friend that works in a department store that carries it. She gives me her discount on whatever I need.

    Yes, Clinique has great products. I failed to mention that I use their moisturizing lotion on my face and have been using it for years. I also like their lipsticks.

    For micro-dermabrasionm I use Origins "Modern friction". I have really loved the results. I bought the container in February, and still have most of it left. It was about $40.

    I like St.Ives facial scrub in the morning, its the best product I can find for the price, about $3. I use Aveeno Moisturizer, I love the way it makes my skin feel and its about $13 for a pretty big bottle.

    I like Ivory soap or Dove Soap. And any skin lotion I can find without mineral oil.

    I use the Oil of Olay micro- derm kit. It is the first one I have used and I can really feel the difference in my skin. I use products (make-up) from Wal Mart so it varries on what I have.

    I'm REALLY loving that Avon Shea butter foot cream with AHA in it. My feet are soft and smooth and lovely.

    For exfoliating, I use baking soda. Not glamourous, but it sure works. I really like soap as a beauty product I tend to have oily skin, so I don't really need a moisturizer and I'm not afraid of wrinkles (boy have I earned them) so I don't buy all the anti aging stuff. spendy beauty products..... hair dye and conditioner. Feria, Chocolate Cherry, and Aussie 3 minute miracle.

    I don't have much a beauty product list. I don't wear much make up so my facial regime consist mainly of Ivory soap and an occasional deep cleansing with St Ives exfolliating scrub. I am now dying my own hair with which ever medium brown is the most reasonable priced. I have a pretty cheap regime.

    My regime is low cost too! I use Almay makeup and Oil of Olay moisturizer with sunscreen. My only real makeup cost is a brow groomer/color wand from Lacome. I used to spend $20 for it (lasts 6 months), but I found I can order the exact thing from Ebay for $6! I color my own hair--Light Golden Brown by Loreal is the perfect color for me. For facial scrubs, I use plain old cornmeal in the shower. It works great! For night time moisturizer under my eyes, I gently apply plain old Vaseline after shower or bath. My feet tend to get a little rough in the summer. I apply lotion to my feet and wear cotton socks to bed. I get 8-9 hours of sleep (a must for me!) and try to eat right and exercise. My husband says I'm pretty low maintenance!
