Advantages: The multiple uses of this magic lotion Disadvantages: Same old gripe, the price
me until now and i am estimating (as i cannot actually see through the tube) that there is about a quarter of the bottle still left, and it is now the middle of January 2007. I use the cream/lotion pretty much every day, i always carry it in my bag therefore i am amazed at how long it really has lasted! So there you go, the cosmetic counter ladies really do know what they are talking about!!
I don't really know what else to tell you about this product i feel that i have covered all the important topics. But i would definately recommend that every women tries Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream at least once in their life, whether you love it or hate it it is essential that we all try it and decide ourselves!!

Advantages: Very effective for dry skin and chapped lips Disadvantages: Initial cost and strange smell
's grazed knee!
However, before I get too carried away, there is a warning on the tube not to apply the cream to puncture wounds, infections or lacerations. I got some on a deep cut by mistake once and whilst there was a slight stinging sensation it easily washed off and there was no further stinging.
One downside for me though is the smell, which seems more medicinal than cosmetic and took me a while to get used to. I also find the colour slightly disconcerting - a strange peachy/brown - although it appears clear when you apply it. Although it calls itself a cream, its consistency and texture are more like a gel and as such I find it a bit off-putting applying it to large areas of skin (eg using it as a moisturiser) and prefer to use it on smaller "problem" areas.
The initial outlay on a 50 ml tube is around £17 which sounds a lot ...
Advantages: Pure goat hair, great price, includes a handle. Disadvantages: A little harsh on first use.
I've used my i.d. Bare Escentuals Kabuki for some years now - but everything wears out eventually and I needed to replace it.
I started researching where would be the best place to buy a new brush and was astounded at the prices! I'm a convert to mineral make-up so I didn't want a synthetic brush, however some of the natural ones were £55+, so out of my price range.
Then I found the GoCosmetics Kabuki brush at a fraction of the price and it is made from pure goat hair - could this be true?
The Go Kabuki is a good size and a plus as far as I am concerned it has a handle, making it a lot easier to hold. On first use it feels slightly stiff, but all cosmetics brushes take a little breaking in, so don't give up - wash with a good quality shampoo and use a tiny amount of conditioner, then allow it to dry naturally.
