I am usually not a huge fan of 100% Natural products because I have noticed they do not typically live up to their more chemically enhanced counter parts. This product is great though for a gloss. Just the right amount of pigment and a gloss sheen. Bare Escentuals 100% Natural Lip Gloss does not feel sticky and although some people have said "they dont care of the taste of it"...I say to them ... why are you eating your gloss? The perfect color for day use is the golden peach shade called Wild Honey. I would recommend it for all skin tones. Check it out!Find it: Sephora

The Clarisonic Skincare Brush has turned my skincare habits around. It gently exfoliates the skin and removes impurities that I thought my plain face wash was ridding my skin of. This brush helps to scrub pores clean and get rid of trace amounts of makeup, oil and other pollutants trapped on my face. I have seen a huge increase in skin tone evenness and less breakouts. It magnifies the effectiveness of the face wash you already use. I use the delicate brush head since I have incredibility sensitive skin and mild rosacea. I would recommend starting with the delicate brush if you are unsure and then adjust from there. I would love to pick up the Clarisonic Mia skincare system - the travel size version - because I definitely notice a difference when I haven't used the brush while on vacation. Be sure to check it out! Definitely worth the price!Find it at: Sephora

Bliss Ingrown Eliminating Pads This product is great! I use to use the Tend Skin solution for ingrown hairs, but having to apply it using cotton balls was quite debacle. The Bliss Ingrown Eliminating Pads are perfect in size and are ready for use straight out of the tub. They are a bit pricey, but I have found them well worth it. No more ingrown hairs from shaving or waxing. To stretch the amount out a little longer I try to just use them every other day and still have successful results. Highly recommend these for people who are ingrown hair prone.Find it at: Sephora
