		<description>I have sensitive skin and have used her Skin Recovery Series for over a decade and am devoted to them. When I&#039;ve been tempted and strayed, I&#039;ve always returned to them. I don&#039;t think they can be beat especially for the price. On the other hand, I have found her cosmetic formulations to be rather heavy, limited in color choices, and somehow a bit dowdy in effect. It is interesting to note that she has drastically slashed her makeup line to focus on skincare. I suspect the color cosmetics were not selling well. Her reviews reflect her tendency to favor a heavier makeup so that items giving sheer coverage will be rated lower. Since I favor transparency and minimalist makeup, I read the reviews carefully rather than just going by her &quot;best products&quot; summaries in order to find the type of product I favor. Has anyone else noticed this tendency?</description>

		<description>I have been reading the &quot;Don&#039;t Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me&quot; books for years which is interesting; it gives me a perspective on how her opinions have changed over time.  Parts of her reviews are unfair, I feel - for example, she describes pore strips as harmful, saying you&#039;re supposed to &quot;rip&quot; them off your skin, when really you should peel them, not rip as if you were waxing.  She said in previous editions that although masks &quot;can be a relaxing, pampering interval for women&quot;, they really don&#039;t do anything for skin -- but now, she sells masks - and voila!  She says that her clay mask is &quot;unique&quot;, absorbs oil, and helps draw out blackheads.  It&#039;s bothersome that she always claimed that toners and masks were superfluous in skin care... until she started selling them.  That being said, I&#039;ve ordered her beta hydroxy product for the first time (haven&#039;t gotten it yet) because the handful of recommended drugstore products are hard to find, so I&#039;m hoping it goes well.</description>
