Over the course of 2008, I reviewed, raved, and ranted about over 35 products! Today, I've compiled my list of favorites - then ten best products I covered during 2008.
These products are considered my go-to favorites and shining stars - everything from nails to foundations to brushes to mascara. Enjoy the list!
Sally Hansen Complete Care 4-In-1 Nail Treatment, my first review of the year, also proved to be a huge favorite of mine. This nail treatment, along with its moisturizing counterpart, do it all - smooth, strengthen, grow, and shine.
Neutrogena Lip Boost Intense Moisture Therapy is an effective, soothing lip treatment that heals dry, chapped lips and adds a soft sheen for a pretty pout. It also smells and tastes delicious - so addictive!
Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets turned out to be the perfect on-the-go beauty product, reducing shine and oil throughout the day without budging makeup!
Olay Regenerist Night Recovery Moisturizing Treatment stole the spot for my number one night cream. With an array of anti-aging ingredients and a formula that is creamy, wonderfully scented, and amazingly moisturizing, this treatment redefines "beauty sleep!"
Philosophy Purity Made Simple One-Step Facial Cleanser, while not a budget product, was one of my HG facial cleansers. It easily removed most traces of dirt, oil, and makeup in a minute or less, and left dry skin moisturized to boot!
Clean & Clear SOFT, with two great no-fuss products - the In-Shower Facial and the Day Moisturizer - left my skin clean, soft, and smooth all day, without oiliness. If only everything in life were this simple!
Maybelline The Colossal Volum' Express Mascara may not have impressed some, but made me say "Wow!" After one coat, my lashes were left dark, lush, and full of volume. Loved it!
Physicians Formula Organic Wear Tinted Moisturizer was a big step outside my comfort zone, but totally worth it! This 100% natural, organic tinted moisturizer had a great scent and blended beautifully into my fair skin.
ecoTOOLS Brushes were easily my favorite brush discovery of the year! These high-quality, low-cost tools are made from all recycled, renewable materials, making them very eco-friendly and allowing us budget girls to enjoy quality brushes for less.
CoverGirl CG Smoothers AquaSmooth Compact Foundation, with new AquaCurrent technology, was one of my favorite foundations of 2008. With a solid-to-liquid-to-powder formula, it provided great coverage while allowing my skin to breathe and drawing in moisture.
Here's to another great year of beauty products!

I tried the CG Smoothers Aquasmooth and was disappointed with it, as it felt very heavy to me :( However, I LOOOVE the ecoTools brushes, and if you don't yet have the retractable silver handled kabuki brush, I really recommend it. It's replaced my other 2 kabuki brushes as my favorite. The set of travel brushes I have from them is nice as well. I use 2 of those every day.
Sorry you didn't like the foundation! It did feel a bit heavy to me at first, but I loved the look it gave my skin - flawless. :) Something I haven't seen with many foundations I've tried. I really liked it.
I have most or all of the ecoTOOLS brushes, I think, and adore them all! They're wonderful, aren't they? :)
I have to make my list soon! I love my ecotool brushes too:)

Where recently I have found one site where It deals with gel nails, UV metallic gel. We can use nail gel brush for nail art including that can use it to mix the acrylic liquid and crystal powder and due to this nothing harm will happen to us. I thought It would be helpful to any one.
