saturday stakeout
February 25, 2006head-to-toe favorites. i never leave home without generously slathering them on me, head to toe. i buy them by the dozen, for fear of their retirement. ok, i’m exaggerating but i could if as soon as a rumor slips out on their discontinuation or early retirement. i just simply love them!
* CROWNING GLORY : i swear by kerastase’s masquintense, which i use after every shampoo. i leave them on for a few minutes on damp towel-dried hair and wash them off right before getting out of the shower. it leaves my hair manageable and shiny! hurrah for tangle-free hair!
* MY NAME IS STELLA : tocca’s rich body cream in stella scent is fresh, sweet and sexy. this cream leaves skin supple and soft. dry skin is moisturized and revived! the scent leaves a lasting delightful sicilian orange freshness!
* MY TOES, MY KNEES : the driest, most unflattering part of my body are my toes and knees. they’re battered and neglected often times. thanks to killer heels and clogs, they’re suffering the way they are. luckily, i have aquaphor to thank for. these all-around treatment for babies ‘ diaper rash, burnt and excessive dry skin, chapped lips, rough elbows, winter-dry skin - saved my feet from becoming older-looking than our natural age. they’re inexpensive and readily available almost everywhere. i slather them on every after shower especially during the summer where we ladies wear our bare sandals and mules!
what are your favorite products?
I love Kerastase’s Masquintense! I just run out of it so I need to get another tub. I don’t use it after every shampoo though since my hair gets limp if I do.
My favorite products are: Mary Kay Acne Treatment Gel - my zits (when I get them) disappear overnight with no drying or scarring; and Nars blush in Orgasm - a very natural blush. There are more but I think I already mentioned them here before.

Yeah, it’s only $7. It disappears when it goes on too.
I forgot to add Prada Lip Balm with SPF15. It’s great for chapped lips!

I love Kerastase’s line and this mask is one of my favorite. It’s kind of expensive, but gives me great result.

I also like Kerastese, but I use the Volumactive line for my limp hair. I use to like Terrax a lot but after discovering Volumactive, can’t live without it. I also can’t live without the Oil of Olay Body Conditioner you suggested a few months back and Jo Malone body cream in Orange Blossom. Maybe I am just addicted to the scent. I’ll try that Tocca cream someday. For skin care, I tried everything including ProActive. I’ve been using Skinceuticals for a month now, and I see a lot of improvement; it’s my new favorite. And lastly, lipgloss, can’t live without Lipfusion in Glow.
