    Any products you swear by? Any new ones you're trying out?


    Me, I love the Body Shop's stuff, it always does wonders for my skin. I use their facial scrub, cleanser, toner, body butter and more. I use Olay gel under my eyes to make sure I don't get dark circles and hopefully to prevent wrinkles! I am using St Tropez everyday face on my... face right now as I want a nice tan since it's getting into Summer. I have always used a daily/gradual tanner as I don't like being too pale. Right now I'm using Loreal Nutrisummer, but I've used Garnier's one and Johnson's Holiday Skin.

    I really do not recommend Garnier's gel stuff for imperfections, it just made my skin red and blotchy, urgh.

    What about you?

    Well i've been using my Aloe Vera plant jelly on my face lately, you know what it's bloody good, smooths out my skin lovely, the plant is not looking so great but its a pretty big one each leaf/strip can be used over a few days.

    Clinique's full potential lip gloss. I got one in my bag for bonus week and loved it so much i went back and got the full 6 (or 8, I can't remember) pack in all different colors. It's so subtle, but very shiny. It doesn't do much actual lip plumping so there is no burning or tingling but over time it's suppose to help keep your lips smooth and as full as they already are instead of growing thinner with age.

    The only problem is that it's very thick and every time the wind blows my hair sticks to my lips. Bleh.

    I love BBW's new Butterfly Flower scent.

    I'm going to try self tanner this year, I think. I got sun burned in a short sleeved shirt on Saturday and now I have to get rid of the tan lines on my upper arms. Ugh!

    i was never big fan of using products even now i dont use much

    not long ago i started using bio oil but this past 3 months i have stopped it but i really need to start again

    Reason i started using this i didnt wanted to look anymore like a dead person ..I dont go out in the sun at all because few minutes out and i already got a tan :D
    because i dont want to look i have any

    so all this made me look like sick as you know we do need to stay everyday a little in the sun we need the Vitamin E..for the skin to look good and me staying inside and even with close blinds and go out at night , thats what i end up looking and with bio oil having the Vitamin E make my skin alive..and no need to stay in the sun :smt038

    For lotions I am really loving Jergens Shea Butter Skin Enriching Moisturizer lately. I am happy to find a drugstore lotion I love and it gives my skin a kind of glowy soft finish. It moisturizes amazing too.

    Bumble and Bumble hair products on my hair.

    For my face I use tinted moisturizer, mascara and glosses by an Austrailian company Becca. They put sunscreen in alot of their products and living in Colorado so close to the sun I really have to watch it.

    Sunscreens I like La Roche Posay.

    I use Lush for just about everything.

    I have Coolanlin Conditioner. Not only do I get to smell like Coconut (yum), but it defines my curls really well and keeps my hair moisturised and shiny. :)

    Facewash - Angels on bare skin. Love it. Lavender is the best.

    I can't go past their products and my personal philosophy is the less stuff that I can't pronounce on the ingredients list - the better.

    I do use Palmer's Cocoa butter as a body moisturiser. It smells nice and seems to be good on my skin in summer and winter. A big plus.

    I use Clean and Clear Blackhead Daily Scrub, Deep Cleaning Astringent and the Morning Glow Moisturizer. That stuff works very well, especially in the summer months when the sun is out.:smt109

    For my hair, i use Luster's S Curl Texturizer Stylin Gel and Stylin' Spray. Get a lil bit in your hands, spray it in and comb it. Gonna be shining baby!:smt008

    I've got a wide array of cologne but right now i'm rocking DKNY and Diddy's Unforgiven. Smells real nice, and the ladies like it at work!:smt058

    Chanel 19

    the other beautystuff I try to avoid products with ingredients wich end on
    -parabene
    -cone
    -oxane
    -glycol
    I also avoid parafinum liquidum.

    So there is not much left, what I can use... some organic stuff and thats it.
