My Beauty Secret:
My best beauty tip, when you're tired and your eyes are red, use some frosty white eye pencil and line the inside of your eye lids. Use some shadow base on top lid, then white eyeshadow, then use a light champagne color eyeshadow and a black-blue mascara to brighten the whites of your eyes. Don't use heavy eye shadow on tired eyes. also, use a eye gel or serum daily w/ caffine in it for tired eyes.
My Routine:
30 min to 45 min depending on how rough I am looking and what I am trying to accomplish
My Horror Story:
I asked a "cosmotologist" to trade me for a make over. She made me look like a cracked out clown on acid!! She'd drop brown eye shadown on my face and instead of cleaning it off, she blended it w/foundation, I looked like I went 5 rounds w/ rocky balboa. I was suppose to be going out and had to take make up w/ me and fix myself. My boyfriend looked at me so strange and I couldn't understand until I looked in the mirror!!
My Celebrity Look-a-like:
When I was younger and skinny I was told I looked like Julie from "love boat", then sarah "fergie" fergeson, princess Di (we were pregnant at the same time and I was blonde at that time too)sherry stringfield and Julianne Moore. When I was growing up I was told "you look just like twiggy" I have packed on a lot of weight since then, actually,I don't see any of it, maybe some coloring similarities and that is about it, but whatever, different people see things different.
If you're starting to age under your eyes, this is the product for you. It is the best. Plus it is on consumer reports. In a study, the regenerist product line did as good of a job as a very expensive brand.

I had to move over my old favorite for a new love, Apoteke. I got samples of the Buttermilk Cleanser, Rose Toner and Rejuventaing Face Cream, I RAN into the bathroom with my beautifully packaged Apoteke products, pinned back my hair and started, my face was so soft and smooth after using the Buttermilk Cleanser, it usually only feels that soft and smooth after home microderm treatment or microdelivery peel, these products were easy to use, smelled soft and natural and made my skin so soft and smooth I couldn't believe it. You hear good things but when you've tried as many products as I have,it's easy to get discouraged. The Buttermilk Cleanser does what it says and more, smells great, works great, and it's organic to boot, this is the best facial cleanser I have used. This is hands down my favorite facial cleanser. The Rose Toner felt cool on my skin, my face felt balanced, clean and smooth, the Rose Toner left my skin cool & balanced, perfect for any weather. I loved this product too, it did not burn or dry like a lot of toners do, it felt good. Last, but NOT least the rejuvenating facial cream, FYI: a little goes a long way, this facial cream felt tingly on my skin and gave me the blush, it is active and increases circulation, the broken capillaries I have on my face have faded in just a few days of use, I can't wait to see how they look in a month. I just tried these products a few days ago, I love all 3, the Buttermilk Cleanser is my new FAVORITE facial product. Shanti Metz gives me hope there are still good customer service reps out there. Shanti was sweet, prompt and understanding. I have spent so much money on products that do not do what they claim. I am thrilled. My broken capillaries have cleared by about 25%, I can't wait to see what happens in a month or 2.

You shouldn't spend a ton of cash for a color and then use cheap shampoo. I have tried several and this one rocks!The new Pureology Essential Repair smells like "Heaven Meets Hawaii". Pureology has a lot of Good stuff. Essential Repair split end repair cream is AWESOME!!
