I'm obsessed, I have at least 7 different types. I love the slight color on the tinted ones and the moisturizing feel, I love how they go on smooth, the packaging is appealing. I bought this because of the packaging and the price but would probably be okay spending $15 a tube. It's worth it. Right up there with EOS for way less! My daughter and husband both use the clear mint ones for their dry winter lips and it's helped more than medicated ones ever did for them. -
Benefit Cosmetics BADgal Lash Mascara

My fave luxury mascara, does everything I want, no spider lashes, goes on easy, lasts all day, makes them fuller and doesn't dry up quickly. It's definitely worth the price but I can't always afford $20 on my lashes so I often aim for a cheaper brand. If money is no object for you, this is the best mascara I've found. -
Benefit Cosmetics They're Real! Mascara
Not worth the price in my opinion, it goes on smooth and really adds a lot to length but it makes lashes look like spider legs. Doesn't do anything for thickening the lashes and without that it just looks tacky and cheap. If it's going to look cheap... +
Not worth the price in my opinion, it goes on smooth and really adds a lot to length but it makes lashes look like spider legs. Doesn't do anything for thickening the lashes and without that it just looks tacky and cheap. If it's going to look cheap I'd prefer not to spend $25 on it. -
Crispers All Dressed Baked Snacks
So good, I can crush a whole bag of All Dressed crispers in a sitting. I usually only get them when they're on sale at Walmart for $1.

I love this, we have one in our living room and my favorite thing about it is that you can stream movies from your ipad or iphone as well as "airplay" them from your computer. So we just download a movie, stream it to our apple tv and we're watching it in seconds. It's great.
My only complaint is sometimes we have trouble getting the airplay to connect, it might be my wifi but every 3rd or 4th use we always have to restart the device 2 or 3 times, restart the device we want to sync with it and turn on and off airplay until something clicks in.
We also watch NFL highlights on it with the NFL now app and I think that's cool. It's simple enough that my daughter can use it to navigate netflix but it took her a lot longer to figure it out then our other console.
Also the remote is small and always getting lost. We have the remote app downloaded to all our iphones and ipad and even my daughter's ipod so that's kinda cool.

We got ours as a gift, there isn't any serious gamers in my family so i can't really speak to the graphics or anything but we use it mostly for netflix and my husband plays call of duty. Works well for us, it's reliable and my daughter has been able to navigate netflix since she was 3 years old. I'd recommend it for a family. -
Playtex Diaper Genie Elite

This is great! I'm on my second baby and everyone always says that you learn you don't need all the fancy things like this by the time you're on your second but whatever, I don't want to double bag up diapers and tie them in a knot and carry them downstairs to my garbage. This is clean looking and holds in the smell, it's easy and quick and I like it, for $40 really, it's worth it to me.
it's insanely hard for me to believe that the same people who made this, made the Diaper Genie II because that is the most worthless product out there. Unless you enjoy getting poop on your hand while you struggle to open the lid, shove (with force) the diaper down a hole all the while trying to make sure your baby doesn't fall to it's death. This is great, press the footpetal and the lid opens and the crocodile thing inside opens up and you drop the diaper in.
My daughter even likes to help out, I tell her "Make this disappear" and she loves it.

Garbage, if you get it as a gift, return it and buy the elite. I'll talk about the elite on it's page but truly without a foot pedal this is completely useless and more hassle than any other option you may have for disposing of diapers.
But it hides the smell, so it is effective. Just the biggest hassle ever.

We love it, our's is on our second baby, had it for 6 years now! It cleans easy, you can throw all the fabric pieces in the wash and all the plastic pieces in the dishwasher. It's great! -

I bought this nearly 6 years ago for my daughter, she used it faithfully from her first week until at least 4 years old, (and could have used it longer but someone bought her a princess mini sofa.) It was one of three things we bothered to hang on to and have been using it again with our new baby.
The features are endless, you can lower it and adjust it in like 10 different ways. I kinda wish that they came in a girlier version and a more boyish theme too. I'm not usually a fan of gender specifying with children but I think this would be more popular if it wasn't so neutral looking. People like themes!
Anyway I was initially bitter about the steep price but considering I'm on my 5th year and second child of using this product and it still looks like the day I bought it, despite being washed approx. 110 times, I'd say it was well worth it.
