Clean & Clear Finishes Mattifying Cleanser

I like to try different kinds of face washes instead of sticking with one that I know works - just to mix it up a bit. I've been using Clean & Clear's new face wash called Finishes Mattifying Cleanser. It says it, "Controls shine all day while removing impurities for a naturally beautiful finish." Guess what. It actually works! My face is not as shiny as it used to be since I started using this face wash and it doesn't feel as oily. However, the face wash doesn't seem to help with blemishes all that well.

Bottom Line: Controls the shine but not so much the blemishes.

Genie Bra

I saw the infomercial for the Genie Bra and got sucked in. I had to try this bra and see if all their promises held up (no pun intended). Women are always searching for the perfect bra and I believe that search will never end. I went to Bed, Bath & Beyond because I found out they had a two pack for pretty cheap. One black and one nude bra were in the box. They say you should step into the bra and pull it up. This does make it somewhat easier to get on, but it's not really necessary. There are also extra pads that come with each bra that you can slip into the cup via a small slit in one corner of the cup. They are supposed to add comfort and support. However, this bra does not provide a lot of support even with the extra pads. It's basically a sports bra. The only promise of theirs that was true was that it was comfortable. The Genie Bra is really super comfy but not really supportive and not very shapely at all. The pads that slip into the cups are also very small and move around. They are basically A cup size so it may look a little silly for bigger cup sizes and since they move around, it could make you look uneven. I would recommend wearing the Genie Bra for around the house and if you don't have to dress up for work. I wear scrubs to work so I will be wearing the Genie Bra since I'm not dressing to impress and want to be as comfortable as I can while I'm on my feet all day.

Bottom Line: Super comfy, barely there support, and not very shapely.
