you can always trust a classic

i tend to be intrigued by advertisements and their claims to fame of their products. so after years of testing a surfeit of "all-new" elixirs, "breakthrough" potions, and "must-try" creams, i've decided to go back to my original Clinique regimen. after all, you can ALWAYS trust a classic...why else would they still be around?

if you want to give it a try, go to Sephora, they have a Discover Clinique Set, including the traditional 3-step skin care system, along with a makeup remover solution, daily SPF protector (now that spring is finally out of hiding), awesome jet black mascara, and their renowned eye cream (for those puffy mornings).

i also picked up their Almost Look Foundation Kit, which has proven worthwhile. especially the Black Honey lipstick -- totally looks goth when you swivel it out the tube, but goes on sheer for a sleek rosy tinted lip stain. and the powder foundation brush is super soft and leaves you with a natural finish. i love it a lot!
