I tried two new things this week and really thought they were great. The first is Redken 02 Satinwear, a product you put on before blow drying. Made my hair shiny and very manageable. The second is Aveeno Simply Radiant face cream. I think it really helped with wrinkles and have only used it a week. Anyone tried new things lately?

My two new favorites are Clinique pore perfecting lotion and Skin Milk shower and bath gel.

This is a great idea for a thread - I love product reviews !

Love that lighted shelf from EFI! But those handles on the DCS appliances? Big two thumbs down. First of all, the hard corners look dangerous, as in ouch!! And difficult to clean to boot. To say nothing about them looking uncomfortable to grasp. And even though I love hard edges and right angles--no circles or ovals for this gal--the handles are just too hard-edged & clunky even for my tastes. Looks like you're off to a great start w/ your blog & I'm looking forward to more. Have long wanted to go to this trade show but probably will never have the opportunity. Love getting a peek inside.

New to Houzz, but I think I've found my place. I've seen the Tide + Ultra Oxi in Target and I saw the pods at CVS. I'm excited to see how the pods clean, because I love Tide Ultra Stain Release and have wanted it in pod form for a while. I may go back and try the scent, but you always get the weirdest looks from people when you do that. Recently I've fallen in love with the Bounce Spring & Renewal drier sheets, but I noticed when I was at Target the other day they changed the design on the box. Hopefully not the scent!!

My permaculture group did a workshop on using Biochar, and what I remember was that yes, you can make your own, but you won’t get as much micro-friendly charcoal. The slow, low-oxygen burn is what creates the most beneficial charcoal, because it leaves open cells for bacteria and fungi to colonate in. That’s the gain in putting it in the soil, so you can concentrate these microbial benefits where you are growing. So I guess if you’re making your own, you just apply more to offset any over-cooked charcoal? It sounded like a lot of work to make my own, and without a microscope I wouldn’t know if I had made it correctly, so I just bought it. :-)

Is Skin Milk the lotion that is packaged in the blue and white bottle and smells like vanilla? If so,, I love it, but only have the facial moisturizer.
Another new product that's good is Garden Botanika's
lip plumping lipstick, and the new lash tint by Neutrogena
not clumpy or heavy, but darkens every eyelash.

Yes, Skin Milk comes in a blue and white bottle. I used to order it from Drugstore.com, but they don't have it any more (drats) so now I need a new source myself.

I will have to try that Neutrogena lash tint !

Wow, what a terrific thread! Dragonfly2 - thanks for the heads-up on the Neutrogena Lash Tint. (I've been looking for a product like this for 20 years.) It hasn't arrived in my area yet, but I'm checking daily. I've never found a mascara that creates real-looking eyelashes. (Hello Tammy-Faye!) They all "clump" no matter how many times they say "No Clumping" on the packaging.

I'm also going to track down the Redken product, as that, too, sounds like a keeper. Keep that information coming, girls.

The lip plumping lipsitck is a Garden Botanika product. I believe it was also endorsed on The View.

I was in nyc this weekend and bought an assortment of Skin Milk products; not one drugstore had them all, I ended up visiting all the pharmacies I was passing by, can't wait to try them...

I also bought crack creme.......

Strivectin D eyecreme and the Loreal dirmabrasion kit.I use them alternately and think they are helping with wrinkles.They are said to thin the skin,so it is important to use sunscreen with both.

Careful with that crack cream Mitch! You don't want to cover up all the cracks!

Bev, thanks for the warning, lol...

It smells of cloves, so I've been using it on my feet only, before I put on socks- I don't mind the smell but I would not want it on my upper body where the smell would hit me...

One of the jars of Skin Milk cream I brought back smelled rancid, that tell tale nutty smell, so that went in the trash; the other Skin Milk products I bought smell fresh...... a faint vanilla smell; I love the body scrub. For 5.99 each, they are a good product....

Pomona: for a true non clumping mascara try Paula Dorf cake mascara. It's amazing.
