Kerry Anne's Picks

Carefree Face & Bikini Total Wax Strip Kit

I tried Carefree Face & Bikini Total Wax Strip Kit, and was thrilled with the results on my bikini line. It wasn't nearly as painful as I thought, and it was so easy to use.

This is a "cold wax" kit, meaning that you don't have to heat the wax; you simply warm the strips between your hands for five seconds and you're ready to go. The Carefree kit comes with a "pre-wax lotion" that contains lidocaine to numb the skin slightly before you apply the wax, and moist towelettes to remove the residual wax when you're done. This is a great kit for beginners because it is so easy to use. Much less post-wax skin irritation than I had when I went to the esthetetician, too. Good luck! Retails for $7.99US and may not be available in Canada.

L'Oreal Color Riche Lipstick

L'Oreal claims this product to be "protective and nurturing". I was pleasantly surprised to find the matte shade I picked up to be significantly less drying than some of the higher end matte lipsticks I've used. The shade I chose, #901, is a neutral pink called Tafetta Satin that is lovely on my fair complexion. The Colour Riche line has a nice scent and a slight, almost perfumey taste, which I don't mind. Lots of shades and finishes. Retails for $9.95US

Airdrie didn't have time to post her links today, so just listen to the show to hear what she said! The song is brand new from Howard Jones, "Revolution of the Heart," from the Podsafe Music Network. Thanks Howard for being podsafe.
