Most of the time, we find ourselves asking one another what we use for wash our faces, moisturize, get ride of zits, erase fine lines. Very rarely do we ask the opposite question, "What do you not use?" Why would we? We don't need to know about something we'd never buy and try. Still, TotalBeauty put together a list of the 12 beauty products that earned the lowest ratings from their editors. I guess the best way to use this information is to watch out:

See which products you should avoid:

• Smashbox Lip Enhancing Gloss
  
• Revlon Tourmaline Ionic 1875 Watt Hairdryer
• Redken All Soft Gold Glimmer Perfecting Shine Treatment
• Murad Firm and Tone Serum
• NARS Body Glow
• Bobbi Brown Everything Mascara
• Skyn Iceland Arctic Face Mist

My eyes suffer through self-inflicted abuse daily: staring into the computer screen, late nights out, sleeping in my contacts, not getting enough sleep, and day-to-day stress. So when I get a chance to pamper my peepers I go for it.

Skyn Iceland "Solutions for Stressed Skin" sent me some eye care goodies to take for a test drive. They sent over their Eye Clinic kit, which included a pair of Hydro Cool Firming Eye Gels and a container of Relief Cream; these two little products were supposed to take me to under eye bliss. I have to say, Skyn delivered. I couldn't have been happier with the results.

The first step to under eye bliss was the Hydro Cooling Firming Eye Gels. This intensive treatment helps firm, de-puff, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and most importantly it distresses (at least it did for me). The product was simple to use, just peel off the backing and apply to the under eye area for 10 minutes.

Step two is the Relief Cream. I love products where you can feel them working, the cream tingled moments after application which felt amazing. The cream de-puffs, diminishes lines and dark circles by simply patting a small amount under the eye twice a day. There is no funky residue and it doesn't mess with your makeup either.
