Almost 3 steps to perfect skin

Advantages: It works
Disadvantages: the price the moisturizer

...I'll admit I love lotions and potions for your skin, but when it comes to actually cleansing it using some greasy runny cleanser than a stinging tonerthat never really appealed so in all honesty good old soap and water ruled the day! So when I heard about Clinique's 3 step cleansing system it intrigued me as it seemed alot easier. However the price didn't so I put it to the back of my mind till I found myself prosing the goodies on offer in Macy's as you do! Given that Clinique is a sister company of the US cosmetic manufacturer Estee Lauder you'd expect their range to be slightly cheaper over in the US. However I wasn't expecting it to be that cheap! I was lucky to be able to purchase a trial size version of the 3 steps system for just over $23. The moisturizer in my pack retails for $20 normally as this is not a trial size. Prior to...

Review of Clinique 3 Step Skin Care

3 Steps To Put Your Best Face Forward

Advantages: mild cleanser, non-greasy moisturizer, price for the value
Disadvantages: cleanser doesn't remove make-up

...I have used the Clinique 3 step system for years now and swear by it! I use the formula for dry/combination skin. This set is terrific for people with dry skin or combination skin, because it evens out the skin tone providing it with essential moisture without leaving it greasy. The set in total is about $50 and it well worth the price. It lasts reasonably long, as long as you use the product sparingly. Do the process twice daily, morning and night, and watch the results unveil before your very eyes. The first step is the mild facial cleanser, which i have in a liquid form rather than the bar soap form. The liquid cleans the skin deep down to remove dirt build-up and leave the face clean, fresh, and ready for step 2. The cleanser is as mild as it says, it washes off with ease, and the fragrance is very mild and fresh smelling...

Clinique 3-Step System Type I/II

Advantages: The ddml is great
Disadvantages: The soap is terrible

...I must admit, I am a bit of a sucker for overpriced cosmetics, skincare products being one of my weaknesses. Last spring, I decided to indulge in a pampering skincare routine, and visited my local perfumerie to find out what would make my skin turn to peaches and cream (I hoped overnight). It was suggested I try the tried-and-true Clinique 3-Step program. I was promised better skin in just two weeks! I was less than thrilled with my (very pricey) purchases. The combo: The three step skincare program consist of a bar of hard milled soap according to skin type (I was assigned type I/II which is normal to combination skin), a clarifying lotion also according to skintype (I was recommended to use 'clarifying lotion 2'), and Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion, aka DDML, for all skin types. For the whole set which consisted...

Review of Clinique 3 Step Skin Care

3 steps to great skin

Advantages: Highly effective results, cruelty-free, long-lasting
Disadvantages: A tad pricey for everyday use

...It is a well known fact (or, rather, perhaps, a well-informed assumption) that beautiful people have beautiful skin. Would a spot ever dare to invade Jennifer Lopez's face? No, of course not! And would Jennifer Anniston ever be seen with bags or dark circles under her eyes? Good grief, no! Well for us mere mortals who are not blessed with perfect features and a flawless complexion...is there any hope? Well, yes, actually there is! And it comes in the shape of Clinique's 3-step skin care routine (Mild Facial Soap; Clarifying Lotion and Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion). The quest for radiant-looking skin has been that bit more taxing for me since I have very sensitive skin which cries out if I dare to use the wrong product. However, thanks to the lovely people at Allders, I managed to blag myself some Clinique skin care...

PS3 slim

Advantages: Blu-ray, free online, nice extras like vidzone & iplayer. Almost silent operation
Disadvantages: Rubbish controller, still expensive, online nowhere near as good as xbox live

...Well, had the slim for a few weeks now (my 1st ever playstation), personally, I'm a little underwhelmed by it, I've been a gamer since the nintendo game & watch days & owned @ least 1 of the current gen consoles since the Mega Drive(Genesis). Graphically the system has the potential to wipe the floor with the 360, but this is really only going to apply to PS3 exclusives as any software house making a multi-platform game is going to be as cost effective (lazy) as possible & use the same graphics on all the games where possible(ok, they need to dumb them down for the Wii). My problem here is that I have yet to get a game for it that runs in 1080P, they all seem to be in 720P! Why???? I'm sure they are out there, but I haven't found one yet. I guess this is down to most HD tv's being HD ready rather than Full HD. Sound-Yeah, ok...

Review of Step Brothers

3steps to A-list skin? Can't be bad...

Advantages: Gentle, Effective, Easy-to-Follow
Disadvantages: Requires regular use for maximum effect

...I'll admit I'm a product junkie and have been using Clinique makeup for about 7 years and occasionally dabbled with their other lotions and potions (I'm obsessed with SuperDefense moisturiser, their 7day scrub is sublime and I can't/won't leave the house without All About Eyes). I have been using Dermatologica skin care products for about three years and although I never had any major complaints - breakouts kept to a minimum, non-perfumed products etc etc - I always felt my skin was still on the dry side and I've never really felt my skin 'glowed'... something I always attributed to smoking, but at 23 and fit and healthy, my skin shouldn't feel dull and lack lustre! Whilst doing my regular re-stocking of my make up, I asked about this fabled 3step system. The consultant took me through the analysis - Type I (tres sensitive and super...

To PS3 or not to PS3?

Advantages: An amazing machine, expandable, some great features
Disadvantages: Expensive (but for a reason), almost internet reliant, no browser security

...the capacity vs cost ratio is (a 320Gb SATA internal is around £110, but a 500Gb external is around £100) better, but each to their own. The other function that makes the PS3 a good console is the fact that it's also a Blu-ray/DVD player. Blu-ray is the next step up from DVDs and as the film industry now seems to be swaying towards Blu-ray as opposed to HD-DVD which is in the XBox 360 it may be worth investing in one purely for that reason. Also the PS3 is about the same price as the cheapest Blu-ray player available at the moment. Having said that, to truly benefit from this you'd need a HD ready TV and a HDMI lead. The PS3 has some truly great features and is a massive advance on the PS2. The sheer power inside the box is pretty good (it's got around 3.6Ghz of processing power which will put most desktop PCs to shame) and in the quality...

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

PS3, for you and me?

Advantages: Stylish, good games available + lots more on the way, blu ray
Disadvantages: No HD cable in the box, no rumble, limited BC

...The PlayStation 3 is Sonys third generation of home consoles. After the stellar performance of the PlayStation 2 and launch of its two rivals the Wii and Xbox 360 the PS3 has a tough act to follow. Sony are clearly not worried as according to their marketing the PS3 is a "supercomputer" and is capable of "4D" graphics, with such bold claims I had to pick one up for myself and see if it was true! Unboxing The first thing you will notice about the PlayStation 3 box is that it's huge! The Xbox 360 had a rather large box but this is incredible being about 1.5x as big. The box design itself is worth a mention as it is pretty neat and the front has a picture of the console floating with the wireless sixaxis controller on a black and red background. On the bottom left hand side you will see the model you have purchased which will be either...
