    With spring coming up I am definitely going for the Yves Saint Laurent Fuchsia Pink lipstick and Too Faced eye shadow primer (I recently ran out of my Chanel primer and can't seem to bite that bullet and replace it!) I just can't get on the red lipstick train, but my skin tone will be great for the bright pink if I can get some sun - please oh please pick me!!

  38. Shea ButterFebruary 22, 2011 at 7:27 PM

    l'occitane shea butter hand cream - I have used numerous hand creams - Avon, Eucerin, Neutrogena, Cetaphil. But, on a recent trip to a big city (I live in a rural area), I walked into a L'Occitane store in a mall and the clerk asked if I wanted to try the hand cream. I agreed and was impressed right away. The smell is light and pleasant, not overpowering and flowery. The cream absorbs into the skin quickly, but still provides lasting protection. I've been using the cream 3 times a day for a week, and my hands are as soft as my 2-year-old daughter's hands. I can't believe the change.

    I felt a little guilty at first spending $21 on a tube of hand cream, but I know I'll use every last drop and the tube will last a long time.
