rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SHeineman - My favorite lip product has been in my family for years, even though I never even knew it. Many years ago, my great-grandpa owned a small general store in our home county. It's not in business anymore, hasn't been since I have been alive, although my...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SHeineman - Janet Evanovich has recently released the latest in her Stephanie Plum series, Ten Big Ones (her books titles are numbers in order...One for the Money, Two for the Dough, and so on). It's not my favorite of the series thus far but...

Philosophy Footnotes Scrub: Getting My Feet Back in Shape

Thu, 8 Jul 2004 00:19:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author SHeineman - An unwelcome side effect of becoming hooked on running last summer was that my feet took a beating. Before that, I really never had many problems with my feet looking okay. Lotion from time to time was enough to keep them sandal-worthy. Within weeks...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SHeineman - Last summer, I became a full fledged running addict, falling in love with it and deciding to train for a half marathon. I saw great improvements all over my body with one notable exception: my feet. My feet took a beating. I've never had issues with...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author SHeineman - A friend of mine gave me a Christmas package with several great beauty items. One of things she included was a Dove Exfoliating Bar. I tried it and liked how it performed but had one big problem. It smelled like Dove soap, and I hate the smell of Dove...

L'Occitane Verbena Body Milk: Less than Impressive

Sat, 6 Mar 2004 15:57:39 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author SHeineman - When I review a product, I rarely consider the cost of an item as being a con, unless it's priced outrageously. I figure that a good product is a good product, no matter what the cost. I tend toward high end products for makeup and haircare and am...

Fri, 20 Feb 2004 13:54:36 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author SHeineman - I see a derm for treatment of acne. It's the most effective treatment and saves me quite a bit of money on constantly testing new products to control my stubborn problem. It's commonly known within the "beauty world" that Cetaphil is often recommended...

Wed, 18 Feb 2004 00:29:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SHeineman - As much as I love the sunkissed look of a good tan (yeah, yeah, I know, but it's my one vice), I've never really been able to get into bronzers. Brown blush/bronzer goes muddy on me as the day progresses, and if you don't believe me, ask to see the...

Fri, 13 Feb 2004 21:45:26 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author SHeineman - I am not one who looks for great beauty bargains. I have my loves and most of them are high end for makeup and salon quality for hair products. I don't even look at the drugstore anymore for makeup or hair care products. I'm not really a high end...

Mon, 26 Jan 2004 01:47:29 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SHeineman - In recent years, although I use department store makeup almost exclusively, I have gravitated toward low end skincare. A big part of the reason is that simple seems to be better for my skin. Most of the time, I use a cleanser and prescription acne...

Fri, 5 Sep 2003 20:01:00 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author SHeineman - I have oily, acne prone skin. For my skin type, one of the hardest things is finding a sunscreen that offers broad spectrum protection without breakouts and grease. I was hoping I'd found it in Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch SPF 30. I was wron...
