Caprig says "From Crepe to Cream- Try This At Home" about Lancome genifique eye

Caprig — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 00:10:48 GMT

I first was doing research on the LANCOME GENIFIQUE products when they came out and for a long time I did not find anything that made me want to TRY LANCOME GENIFIQUE.

However, not too long ago I finally was able to get a large amount of LANCOME GENIFIQUE for face and eye to test out and see what all of the fuss was about. I was able to test LANCOME GENIFIQUE through Sephora and LANCOME.

WHAT IS GENIFIQUE EYE LIKE?

More recently released than LANCOME GENIFIQUE, the LANCOME GENIFIQUE for EYE is a more gentle product. A bit thicker than the serum for the face, LANCOME GENIFIQUE EYE is very concentrated. I found that putting a tiny amount on my finger, I could distribute on both eyes easily and have a little left for around my lipline.

There is no heavy fragrance or residue left when applying LANCOME GENIFIQUE.

HOW DOES LANCOME GENIFIQUE EYE WORK?

LANCOME GENIFIQUE EYE is a nice light thick serum that applies well to both eyes with a small drop. The serum soaks in quickly leaving...

Caprig says "Gaze Into the Looking Glass and See Your Past" about Lancome 'Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate

Caprig — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 23:50:03 GMT

When I first heard of Lancome's new product GENEFIQUE, I thought it was an interesting concept, but seriously, I did not really get anything out of what the people said it was supposed to do.

I began to interview people and the responses I got were very vague.

*It makes my skin velvety*

(big deal- what else does it do?)

*It makes me have a glow*

(well, so do a lot of products- then what?)

*It does not take a lot*

Okay, well, neither does arsenic...

And the list went on and on.

WHAT IS LANCOME GENIFIQUE LIKE?

LANCOME GENEFIQUE is a very runny serum. It is almost like water. I first tried it on the back of my hand at a Lancome counter and was unimpressed. I tried it several times, and it did not seem to do anything in particular- at least swatched on the back of my hand.

LANCOME GENEFIQUE had a large sized sample available on Sephora that I would have to pay for with points, so I decided to purchase it with some points that I had so I could try this amazing so-called ground-breaking...

Caprig says "Mom! The Cat Won't Stop Licking My Hair!" about Tarte Cheek Stain in Blissful

Caprig — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 21:42:42 GMT

"MOM!"

I ignored the shout of my daughter trying desperately to concentrate on the paper that I needed to write.

"MOM!!! HEEELLLPPP!"

I walked into the living room quickly to see what the problem could be only to find my daughter stuck to the couch with her hair straight up in the air as the cat dutifully licked her entire head like he was cleaning himself.

"MOM- THE STUPID CAT WON'T STOP LICKING MY HAIR"

At which point the UPS man came up the driveway. Our daughter jumped up from the chair, the cat in hot pursuit, with clearly a job undone, and the result was - a little white box from TARTE! My Tarte Cheek Stain in Blissful arrived!

WHAT IS TARTE CHEEK STAIN in BLISSFUL LIKE?

Makeup can be a very exciting field of discussion. Makeup can also be a very volatile topic of discussion, depending on what group of people you happen to find yourself in. One of the topics the seems to polarize people is that of TARTE CHEEK STAINS.

TARTE CHEEK STAINS are a gel based blush/lipstick that...

Caprig says "I Don't Have To Wear My Mom's Shoes Anymore" about Born Shola ; for Women

Caprig — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 15:14:57 GMT

I remember the first time that my mother brought me into the CLARKS store to shop for shoes with her. I used to resist curling my lip at the styles of shoes that I emphatically decided I would never buy no matter how old I got.

The shoes on that store always symbolized getting into old lady stage for some reason and I did not want to be part of that crowd. I am more of a dramatic dresser and love unique clothing- but somehow I could not picture my style meshing well with shoes like that which are more comfortable but not seriously stylish.

Then it happened. I was wearing my high heel boots through the mall one day and I suddenly could not walk. My feet hurt. My toes were cramped. Oh my gosh, I was miserable. My mother told me that I needed to stop wearing such high heel shoes and face the fact that I just had to wear something comfortable.

I had just about given up trying to wear high fashion clothing because I had to opt for some comfortable shoes that were not very attractive...

Jolie says "buyuggsboot.net is a scam! Ugg Boots from China that are fake." about www.buyuggsboot.net

Jolie — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 05:22:46 GMT

Background on Buyuggsboot.net

A friend of mine at Viewpoints recently passed along a site called www.buyuggsboot.net. She found it online. www.buyuggsboot.net is a web site that sells all styles of Ugg Boots at discounted prices.

We werent certain if www.buyuggsboot.net were the real or not. But after a thorough review of the site, we thought it was legit. Buyuggsboot.net looks like a reasonable reseller of Ugg Boots. The page is designed well, the pictures look authentic and they make claim to having the real deal. They also consistently site throughout the web site having customer satisfaction commitments.

To add to the thought it was authentic, the pricing seemed good but not amazing. As you probably know a typical pair of Ugg Boots cost about $110. On Buyuggsboot.net the cost was $89.00- approximately a $20 savings. Seemed like a good deal, but they werent so cheap that I thought it could be scam. As an aside, last year Nordstrom had a similiar sale on Ugg boots so the pricing seemed...

Caprig says "But I Was SO DETERMINED Not To Buy ANYTHING From You!" about Victoria's Secret Heidi Klum Perfect Lipstick in Exotic Spice

Caprig — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 13:41:13 GMT

As determined as I was not to ever buy anything from Heidi Klum again, I found myself falling into the vortex of the HEIDI KLUM LE HOLIDAY COLLECTION.

I was out of town and needed a nude lipstick badly. I was at a mall that had Victoria's Secret in it, and found that their lipsticks were very good for me. I happened to try on the HEIDI KLUM PERFECT LIPSTICK in EXOTIC SPICE and fell in love with it. It is perfect on my lips.

So, Heidi Klum has jumped on the LE bandwagon and caused a stir with her Limited Edition lipsticks which only come out at Christmas time. If you snooze, you lose.

WHAT IS HEIDI KLUM PERFECT LIPSTICK in EXOTIC SPICE LIKE?

HEIDI KLUM PERFECT LIPSTICK in EXOTIC SPICE is a gorgeous pink nude color. I would say that this color probably works best on cool complexions as it tends toward the pinkish side. However, each person looks so different in lipstick colors, I would not say that is written in stone.

The texture is more like LAURA MERCIER GLOSS STICKS. ...

Caprig says "Even Though I Don't Like You, I Broke My Boycott" about VS Makeup (Victoria's Secret) Heidi Klum Luminous Face Powder Gems MOONSTONE

Caprig — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 13:15:49 GMT

It is rare that I am so turned off by a person that I will actually BOYCOTT something that they sell because I dislike their behavior so much. Recently, however, I had such an experience. Heidi Klum, who has been heralded as some kind of super model for years had demonstrated some of the most disappointing and frustrating behavior on her show PROJECT RUNWAY. Her behavior was SO disturbing that I decided I would not even look at any of her collections of makeup at Victoria's Secret anymore.

I was doing pretty well at this little self appointed boycott, until I was waiting for someone at Victoria's Secret one day and I began to play with the makeup. When I noticed that it was the Heidi Klum collection I quickly put it back and refused to touch it again.

Then I was on a trip and needed a natural lipstick badly. I happened to be at a mall that was selling this, and I tried it on. That was all she wrote.

After breaking my boycott by purchasing the HEIDI KLUM EXOTIC SPICE lipstick,...
