Healthy Castor Oil: A Gift That Became a Favorite
I received this as a gift, and I’m not a huge body lotion girl, but this healthy castor oil has really increased my use. I love how my skin feels after it’s absorbed.

Laura Geller Line Smoother Targeted Fine Line Filler
I’ve tried quite a few products that promise to blur fine lines, and most have been disappointing. Some dry with a white cast and others just don’t seem to do much. This one actually made me say, “Wow…this really works.” It has a silky, silicone-like texture that smooths beautifully over the skin. I’ve used it under my makeup AND over my makeup, and it works well both ways and lasts. I especially like the smooth applicator because I can put it exactly where I want it, and ano
