Clinique Superbalanced Powder Makeup SPF 15 Mineral Rich Formula

The NEW Clinique Superbalanced Powder Makeup SPF 15 Mineral Rich Formula was love from first try! If you are looking for a light foundation yet with great coverage this mineral foundation by Clinique is for you. I like to use it during the day when I don’t want to wear too much makeup, and especially on weekends. All you need to do is twist the foundation dial clockwise, dip in your best powder brush or brush provided and apply. You don’t need to tap because the dial lets you dispense exactly the amount you need. No mess! You will see an immediate smooth coverage but never feel you are wearing any makeup. It has sun protection. And, no tapping and buffing required! Win win situation to me:) SRP: $32.50

Available September 2009 at Clinique counters nationwide and at www.clinique.com

Neutrogena is a brand I’ve been using ever since I was a teenager back in Israel, believe it or not. And still today remains one of my favorite skincare lines.

Just to show you that Neutrogena seems to want to address skincare issues from teen all the way to mature skin. Pretty fascinating!:)

Now you can Undo summer skin sins…in just two weeks! With the end of summer fast approaching, there has never been a better time to rejuvenate your skin, and restore some of the damage caused by the intense summer sun. While, wearing a broad spectrum SPF is the best way to protect your skin from wrinkles and brown spots, NEUTROGENA is offering you the opportunity for a “do-over,” and is helping you combat the damaged caused by too much sun and not enough sleep. 

· Repair – The first step to repairing past sun damage is to repair skin with a treatment that will not only improve the look of your skin, but will work deep within skin to reverse the signs of past sun damage
