The Ultimates: Beauty

I think the above image says it all, but just in case you’re hankerin’ for some prose, you should know that I own and love all of the above products and have been consistently using and testing these products for at least 3 months (except the nailtiques, I’ve been using that for a few weeks). I stand by them all and could not recommend them any more highly. Here are some links for your convenience:

  1. Murad Anti-Aging Acne System
  2. Amazing Cosmetics Concealer
  3. Nailtiques
  4. Clarisonic Plus
  5. Smile Brilliant

Have you tried any of these Ultimates? What is one of your beauty Ultimates?

The social bar above is my tip jar. Pin, Like, and Tweet if you please!

Love, Kristina

I love my Clarisonic! I got it a few months ago and my life has changed completely. Great selection.

Great round up! My skin seems to be throwing a tantrum, so this is just what I need. Xoxo

I was so upset when I dropped my Clarisonic for the final, fatal time once the warranty had expired. I just got a Mia in the mail earlier this week, and I love it! More compact than the Pro but feels just as effective. Cute in pink, too. :) Thanks for sharing your other picks.

I have been contemplating getting the Clarisonic for over a year now. Reading all of the above comments about how much people love it, I think it really is time to "invest".

I use Crest White strips for now but I will look into Smile Brilliant when I run out. I love my Clarisonic. I don't know how I ever survived without it!

Nailtiques #2 is like the best stuff, ever! I second your endorsement!

I've had a Clarisonic for 2 years, and I love it. I've always had extremely sensitive, acne-prone skin, and it cleans my skin without irritating it. That being said, sometimes I only use it once a day or every other day if my skin is feeling angry. I bought mine on QVC, where you can break the cost down over three monthly payments.

I've never tried that Murad line (have used Dr. Perricone) for years, but I might give it a whirl based on your recommendation! Thanks a bunch!

I LOVE the Clarisonic! It makes me feel like I'm really getting my skin clean, which is really nice during the steamy summer months.

And I have been using Mary Kay's concealer. It really is the absolute best concealer I have ever used. It covers seamlessly, and does not cake or flake at all.

I absolutely love my Clarisonic Mia, but haven’t gotten a chance to try out the Clarisonic Plus. Would you recommend the Clarisonic Plus for body as well?

I will never stop using Amazing Cosmetics concealer. I totally agree that it is the best I’ve ever tried.
