I recently decided to jump on the bandwagon and try the new mineral wear makeup. I started with Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Loose Powder.
It takes a lot to impress me with make-up. A lot of make-up companies make claims about their products that don’t really seem to measure up. But with Physicians Formula loose powder, I have to admit I was impressed.
It goes on light and doesn’t leave a heavy, cakey finish like a lot of powders do. I also liked the fact that it helped even out my skin tone. I have fair skin with red blotchy areas on my face. There is one spot in particular between my eyebrows that is hard to conceal. This make-up covered it up beautifully.
It is also worth noting that this particular powder by Physicians Formula was voted “Best Loose Powder” by People Style Watch.

After receiving the Schick Intuition Razor free as part of a package deal, I decided to try it out. It’s not something I would usually buy without some sort of incentive. I’ve been using regular old disposable razors since I first started shaving, and while I usually love to try new products, razors really weren’t something where I thought to expand my horizons.
Now, I’m glad I tried it.
I don’t know about you, but I dread shaving because of the time it takes to get it done. I usually don’t have a lot of time to waste in the morning…at least not on shaving my legs. And when I do shave in the shower, the spray from the shower usually rinses off the shaving cream or soap before I can get to that part of my leg.
With Schick’s Intuition, the razor lathers, shaves and moisturizes all in one easy step. You’re actually supposed to keep your legs (and the razor) wet. As you press down slightly on the razor, enough lather comes out for the razor to glide right over your skin. It leaves your skin feeling smooth and soft.
I fell in love…seriously.
I like a close shave on my legs because, quite honestly, I like to believe that the closer the shave, the less often I have to do it. (Did I mention I’m lazy?) The Intuition gave me that close shave…with no nicks.
It is also very comfortable to hold.
If you haven’t tried Schick’s Intuition razor yet, I strongly encourage you to give it try. It’s reasonably priced with different options for whatever skin type you have. Refill kits are also available.
