Devita

I don't really have that many...but these are things I refuse to go without:
Retin-A .05%
Easy Eye Solutions Instant Eye Tuck
Aquaphor Ointment (for my lips)
and my sisters DIY actives serum...
Obagi NuDerm might become part of the club...but I have yet to go through the whole cycle and the jury is still out on it. So far so good!
Oh!! Have to say Botox and Juvederm I will not go without either!!! Can't believe I forgot those! |

I agree that "things I refuse to go without" sounds closer to the products I'm loyal to than HG (what can I say, I always believe there's room for improvement )
Algenist Moisturizer: I'm scared to report anything positive about this product because it's been barely two weeks but already I feel like this has diminished fine lines like nothing else I've tried has.
Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protection Cream SPF 55: For a sunscreen that I trust, is easily available in the US, and sinks in my face without problems, the price doesn't seem as bad as I initially thought.
Burt's Bees Original Lip Balm: Love the mintyness, the fact that it doesn't feel greasy, and that this hydrates my lips better than anything else I've tried.
Uncle Tom's of Maine Toothpaste in Peppermint: Amazing, amazing, amazing. This is one item I can truly say is HG for me. Again, the peppermint is knockout fresh feeling and will leave your teeth smooth and clean unlike any other toothpaste out there. |

Lemon, your comment about the Algenist moisturizer piqued my curiousity so I did a wee bit of digging about the product line...looks really interesting indeed! Have you used anything else in the line? I see that it's quite new....super pricey, but if it delivers what I've been reading about I'd fork it out.
From what reviews I've found online, it gets totally awesome raves from everyone that uses it and noticeable results within a week...oh lord, I looks like I'll be dishing out some more dough very soon |

Things that work:
My satin pillowcase - keeps my face morning-crease free, and keeps my hair smooth.
Decollette Pads - I don't use them every day, but they're great for special occassions.
Yuko hair straightening - if not for Yuko I would be stuck with short hair.
I buy high-end products, and change them often, but I have yet to find better cleansers than Dermalogica. They are my staple.
I love my Clarisonic, fab deep clean.
Zeno for quick zit-zaps, it's a face saver.
Right now I'm loving Valmont as a brand... |

There is room for improvment as I am still experimenting, but these are products I love and will continue to use:
DDF pumice acne scrub 5%BP - use with a brush and you;ve got the best clean feeling ever
DDF sulphur mask - nothing else has such an impact on cysts/nodules that time of the month
DDF 10% Glycolic toner
Clinique all about eyes
Clinique anti-blemish moisturizer - only for spot treatment
Olay microdermabrasion/peel kit
NARS oil-free foundation - flawless all day long
Urban Decay eyeshadow primer - makes any eyeshadow more vibrant and stays put forever
MAC freckle tone lipstick - perfect shade and texture
L'Oreal voluminous mascara - only waterproff mascara that doesnt run nor clump
John Frieda secretweapon flawless finishing creme - best way of controlling frizz after you dry your hair
I will also add that i am now a believer in chemical peels and wont be giving that up anytime soon either. |

I've tried a few other home microderm kits and this one is the best. It has a step two with lactic acid so its a fun little bonus! It can get messy though so its best to use before going into the shower, and i rub it on my face for longer than recommended, but it helps to make my skin clean, super smooth and glowing like nothing else. The problem is your skin only looks amazing for a couple days, unlike a peel. |
