i found the olive oil to be the most useful. i always have it on hand, and i use it on my hands and feet. it also helps scars to fade more quickly.

The one i found helpful was the hair care. Ironically my friends were raving about the product. Once i read about how bobbi brown loves it well, I ordered it online right away!! i cant wait until i receive it!

I have used olive oil on my nails before but never on my face. I might have to give that a try.

Davina 12-01-2008 @ 6:11PM

My favorite tip is to always moisturize first.

Megan 12-01-2008 @ 4:29PM

The exacts on how to apply makeup--it's something we've done for so long, but little changes can make all the difference!

I love her fashion motto: "Be comfortable". That is such a great outlook!

liz 12-01-2008 @ 5:17PM

The peppermint soap tip is great; it would wake anyone right up and stay alert!

Jackie 12-01-2008 @ 5:32PM

I love the concealer. I am at the age I need all the help I can get.

I love her motto "be comfortable"........Bobbi Brown is the best!

Nancy C 12-01-2008 @ 4:54PM

Be comfortable and Prada loafers. Having rotten taste in comfy shoes (until I wear them for a few days) those tips go hand in hand. I love her products and never leave home w/o my Brown Shimmer lipstick.

I love your concealer. When you get my age you need all the help you can get.

Krista 12-01-2008 @ 7:03PM

I like her tip of using olive oil as a skin and hair moisturizer. i had no idea!

Eileen D 12-01-2008 @ 7:58PM

I never really tried the eyeliner thing. I didn't think it made that much of an impact, and boy was I ever wrong. Also, do the lipstick first then the lip liner.
