rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - Winsor Pilates is just one member of a ripe new set of exercise infomercials hitting the airways these days. Winsor Pilates' own infomercial could take your breath away. It goes through the many Miss Americas and celebrities that have used Winsor Pilates...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - About the Matrix Sleek.Look Smoothing System

"What's the fresh idea? Sheer color you can feel good about. Conditioning lips with plant emollients like Brazilian carnauba wax, tinting with minerals and protecting with SPF 15. Refreshing your mood with invigorating orange...

1-800 Contacts Online Store: It's been my lens depot for the past 2 years and counting.

Thu, 10 Apr 2003 19:59:42 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - When I began wearing contact lenses I started to realize that I was being very overcharged by my opthalmologist. This is a common problem. When you order direct from your doctor, (s)he might take the opportunity to significantly hike up the...

So Long, Dull Hair!

Thu, 3 Apr 2003 19:14:13 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - Lately I've been reviewing higher-priced items: beauty products that I'd normally consider something of a "stretch". You know, the $10 lipstick, the $15 moisturizer, the $18 mascara. Writing reviews of all those has made me question my integrity as an...

A Three-In-One For Summery Fun

Sat, 29 Mar 2003 21:13:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - Had I the opportunity to compose a list of my top ten basic beauty products (those I would bring along if stranded on a desert island with attractive members of the opposite sex), Avon Bug Guard Plus would undoubtedly be on it. And not just to...

In theory, yes. In practice, well...

Thu, 27 Mar 2003 19:19:21 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - I have always had a problem with lipstick staying on. I apply several coats in the morning, but by lunchtime it has always managed to fade or disappear altogether. My problem is that I hate reapplying--I have a very fast-moving lifestyle and it's a pain...

Mmm...crunchy, fresh, Mexican!

Tue, 25 Mar 2003 22:45:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - I regularly dine at the Baja Fresh in my area. I find that the food is consistently VERY fresh and delicious, and that the environment is quite nice (if not a little austere, in all its spotless black and white!)

Freshness. All...

Possibly worth every cent of the $12.10 I spent

Tue, 25 Mar 2003 22:07:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - Surprisingly, I don't have a very strong opinion on this one. I'm writing a review of it because I feel that it is unfair for people to spend $12 without first having some previous knowledge of what they're getting. So, here we go.

I bought...

Luxe, Sweet Skin-Suppler. Designer quality at one tenth of the price!

Tue, 25 Mar 2003 21:24:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - Just a note: like jo.com, I am reviewing the product "Extra Relief Collagen Elastin Dry Skin Lotion" by St. Ives. This is a very similar product and not really worthy of a whole separate Epininos listing. That said, I do not consider my...

Tara Thai: To "Thai" For!

Sun, 22 Sep 2002 16:20:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - I haven't epinioned in a [long] while, but Tara Thai has recently moved me to do so. How could a restaurant this delightful not be worthy of an Epinion?

Generally, every restaurant I eat at has a couple "cons" (if only one or two.) But Tara...

Sandwiches are a Beautiful Thing

Sun, 24 Feb 2002 12:07:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - Subs may well be the "compromise" in fast food. They aren't exactly your green, leafy salad, but they aren't a dripping Big Mac either. It's a little something healthy and a little something unhealthy, mixed together and doing alright.

Four Seasons, Four Stars

Mon, 18 Feb 2002 00:36:50 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - Waltz into Seasons restaurant with someone nice on your arm and be prepared for great food, ambiance, and service. Also be prepared to abandon some of the more normal points in life, such as diet and wallet, to name a few.

Are You Drowning in Quicksand at This Moment? Crack Open Your WCS Handbook...

Sat, 2 Feb 2002 18:58:13 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - You're drowning in quicksand, alright--but no matter. You're quasi-calm, you've got your stout pole, and you know the routine: flop onto the pole, arrange to so it's perpendicular to the spine, and float to serene safety. But that's child's play compared...

On Starbucks: A "Real Food" Review

Wed, 7 Nov 2001 22:42:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - Note to all my readers: of course, Starbucks is most famous for its beverages, namely coffee. However there's another aspect of this enterprise which (I think) deserves a review: its "real food": sandwiches, salads, bagels, meals, and maybe a bit on...

No Frills. No Bucks. No Problems.

Sun, 4 Nov 2001 11:56:01 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - If cars were articles of clothing, the Ford Escort would be your blue jeans.

Simply put, it's a "bare-bones" car. Really, it's everything one would need: a simple, basic, somewhat primitive car, with a radio, a fairly good drive, and some...

It's not a Textbook

Thu, 1 Nov 2001 23:06:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - Everyone else who has written a review of Sophie's World has plainly overlooked the story's most shining point: its plot.

The plot does tend to get a little subtle, so I could understand why some people might have failed to include it in their...

Fluid Power

Wed, 31 Oct 2001 18:46:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - MC Solaar is a genius. I don't know if he writes the lyrics himself, but the way he interprets them makes them so appealing to people of every nationality and language.

Prose Combat is powerful French ranting about deep issues, translated...

Acuvue--See the world in flying colors

Fri, 12 Oct 2001 22:28:41 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - My opthalmologist told me that Acuvue 2 contact lenses can actually give you better-than-perfect vision. No joke.

By this I don't mean superhuman sight or the eyes of an eagle. You don't usually get much better than 20/15. But still, it's...

Serendipity: Not exactly a serendiptious flick

Tue, 9 Oct 2001 18:48:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - This movie is a cute story of the guy and the girl, who meet when arguing over a pair of cashmere gloves in Bloomingdale's. "Sara", who believes wholeheartedly in fate, asks "John" to write his name and phone number on a five-dollar bill. Then Sara...

For Greenpeace-ers With A Lot of Cash

Tue, 9 Oct 2001 17:27:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - Sometimes I wonder about Aveda's target audience. At first I thought it would be environmentalists, because Aveda's products are 100% natural and Aveda has a deep commitment to global service work and charity. But then I saw their price list and realized...

The Bag as Singular Style and Second Nature

Fri, 21 Sep 2001 23:35:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author perfectprep - I recieved my Timbuk2 bag a few weeks ago, after first designing it online at Timbuk2.com's digital "Bag Builder". The bag building experience was a delight in itself--I must say that rekindling the juvenile pleasures of designing my own stuff, right...
