BARE MINERALS

Thumbs up from this user. I have been using Bare minerals for quite sometime now and wouldn't return to conventional cosmetics. At first I thought it was kind of an odd concept but the make up makes my skin look and feel great and it's good for it. The foundations have 15 SPF and most people could wear several of the colors. My perfect shade is the medium. You don't need to put much of this product on and it gives you flawless skin. I use the blushes and the lip colors also and they have a product called Buxom Lips that is the best lip gloss I have ever used. It gives your lips a cool tingly feeling and has great staying power. Love these products and HIGHLY recommend them. I know some people have maybe tried them in the past but didn't quite understand how to use them or didn't feel they were right for them but I would give them another try. I recently submitted a testimonial to Bare Minerals so who knows.. You might see me used on the website or something in the near future.

I don't use Bare minerals exclusively. I do use them as my foundation, cheek and lip color but I use other cosmetics mentioned on this blog in concert with them and they blend with other brands wonderfully.

100% Pure Cosmetics

These are some cosmetics I came across.. Again first I saw them on QVC but then found I could try them a bit cheaper if I went through Ebay. This Mascara and all the cosmetics and line are made from completely pure ingredients. The Mascaras are made from Fruit pigment as are the other cosmetics. I have just started using this product and have tried both the Blackberry and the Black colors. They both do a great job, don't cause any discomfort when getting into my eyes like traditional mascara. So if you have sensitive eyes and traditional mascaras irritate them, you might want to try these products. They wash off easily and completely with soap and water or whatever cleanser you use. The natural ingredients condition your lashes and the product does separate, thicken and lengthen my lashes. On QVC you can only buy 2 of the mascara's at a time in the same color. I found that going through Ebay or the Company's website itself is better as you can try and buy the quantity you like instead. In my opinion , this product is every bit as good if not better than the Prescriptives brand and other high end products.

SHARK STEAM MOP

The following is my review from a review site for infomercial merchandise.

I wouldn't trade my Shark Steam Mop
10/17/2008 - Deb of Florida, USA writes:
LOVE MY SHARK STEAMMOP I have seen a lot of bad reviews in here regarding the shark. I wouldn't have tried it if I had read these reviews first most likely but Thankfully I didn't. I don't know if people have been using it incorrectly or just expecting perfection but over all this mop is wonderful. I have had mine several months now and it does a terrific job on my floors. I find that ground in dirt on Linoleum flooring though you might want to pretreat those areas with a Mr. Clean Eraser (which works great on EVERYTHING pretty much) before the first time you clean the floor with your steam mop. The only issue I have is the pads aren't that easy to clean and the dirt really doesn't come out of them so having more than 2 of them comes in handy. I have tried plenty of products that don't perform as they have been shown on an infomercial.

This product overall is good. Not perfect but it does a really good job, better than most mops or other products do plus it's safe( only using water) and eco friendly. *end*

By the way.. You can buy this steam mop in many discount department stores today. I have seen it at , Target, Walmart, BJ's Wholesale Club, QVC. Price range is anywhere from 69.00 to 89.00. Buying it through the informercial with payments is more expensive because they charge a big shipping charge which they don't disclose until payment is made really. I feel it's a good value but get extra pads for it.

THESE ARE THE BEST HAIR CARE PRODUCTS I HAVE USED IN MY OPINION.

I was very skeptical in trying these products because the idea of not having a sudsy, or foaming shampoo I felt was ridiculous and didn't see how it could work or do anything but GREASE my hair up. I tried this product in a small amount I purchased on EBAY a few months ago. NOW I am hooked and have ordered more. The products are not cheap but they actually treat your hair so well that they are well worth it. The cleansing conditioner will not strip your hair like traditional shampoos will. If you color you will find that you can go longer between coloring or touch ups. Your hair (If you follow the directions) will come out shiny, bouncy and manageable. I have heavily Chlorinated well water where I am and anything I used before this system made my hair either feel greasy, dry or full of residue. The only time my hair felt healthy and soft was right after a coloring. Now I get that nice soft and shiny hair every time I wash my hair. I love the products and probably won't return to traditional shampoos any time soon if at all. You can find these products through the Wen Website or you may purchase them through www.qvc.com
or you can find the products discounted sometimes through www.ebay.com. PS... You don't have to buy anything but the Cleansing conditioner really. That one product works as your shampoo, conditioner, Deep conditioner , detangler and leave in conditioner depending on how you want to use it. The first time I used the product I also left in some as a leave in conditioner. That worked great but I haven't done it again... I just shampoo, leave it in while I shower and shave or whatever I have to do then rinse it out at the end of the shower... Works great for shaving your legs also.

A few of my favorite things

If you know me, you know I am a fan of QVC. QVC really does offer, Quality, Value and Convenience. They have wonderful Customer service, Great hosts and a whole lot of wonderful products. I have purchased everything from bedding to cosmetics, to tools and if I have ever had a problem with something, which is rare, they have taken back the product with no questions asked and given me a full refund. They carry some wonderful lines. I am especially fond of their skin care and cosmetics, which I will write on later in another post. If you haven't ordered from QVC, give them a try. You can watch them on Cable television and order that way or order 24/7 from their website http://www.qvc.com/ . At times they offer payment options, where you can receive your products and spread your purchase out in payments. A couple days a year they will spread everything out on 5 payments, whether your purchase is a small one of only a few dollars or a large electronic type purchase. I am a BIG fan and have been for many many years.
