For an all natural facial cleanser that you can buy at your local grocery store this one is not bad, not only for the ingredients in it but also for the price. Personally it isn't working the best for my skin but I still gave it a high star review because it isn't terrible. One thing about this line is the smell, their cleansers and creams literally smell good enough to eat, it definitely smells like pineapple. One thing that still confuses me is that for an all natural cleanser that contains no SLS, Sulfates, Parabens etc, it still foams really well, not sure if this is a good thing but it does clean well and you don't need much of it, since it foams quite a bit a little goes a long way. All in all you can't really go wrong with this cleanser. -

Like the rest of IT Cosmetics products that I have reviewed, this is yet another than I was not impressed with. First the pricing on this is expensive, at $60 CDN I would expect it to work fantastically. The consistency of it is not bad, on the thicker side but it feels like it has a lot of silicone in it. One thing I noticed right away when opening the jar was the smell, oh my god it has a strong chemical smell, I didn't like that at all. I will be returning this for sure. -

I don't really have much to say about this product other than it didn't really do anything to my under eyes. It does go on pretty smooth and seemed to absorb in well but for the price I would rather buy Tarte's eye cream, I also found that it smelled very chemically which isn't something I want to be using on my face especially under my eyes. I would pass on this and get something else that actually works. -

Wow this under eye concealer is sooo illuminating, I was shocked when I put it on. A word of warning when putting this on, you only need to use a little bit, I spreads a lot and to much of it just makes you look white. It does have a pretty thick consistency to it and it it a white color. It does blend out pretty good however I didn't find it overly good coverage and I really didn't like how illuminating it is to the point it made me look like I had sparkles under my eyes. For the price I could think of better concealers. -
Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream with SPF50

Thank goodness I only purchased the travel size, I did not like this CC cream at all. The shade medium is way to dark and very yellow, it does go on pretty good and blends out really well, it also has good coverage and the consistency is pretty thick. For me it does not wear well at all, it ends up looking very makeupy, makes me extremely oily and I feel like I am wearing a mask and can't wait to take it off at the end of my day which is only 8 hours. I have tried it with different moisturizers and primers and same result every time, I will be returning it! -
Revelon Brush & Sponge Daily Cleanser
This cleaner does not work! I got this at a sale for a cheap price so I figured I would try it out. Thank god I didn't pay full price for it because this cleaner does not work, I use this to clean my beauty blender and you have to use a lot of it... +
This cleaner does not work! I got this at a sale for a cheap price so I figured I would try it out. Thank god I didn't pay full price for it because this cleaner does not work, I use this to clean my beauty blender and you have to use a lot of it to even get it to do something, not to mention the smell of it, it has a really strong chemical smell to it, something I don't really want to be putting on my face. All in all not worth it, simple Olive Oil and dish soap cleans way better. -
elf blotting papers

These papers do the job they are supposed to do, I don't have much bad to say about them, the only thing that I didn't like is the size of them, they are really small. I would say that you get a good number of papers in them but because they are so small you have to use quite a few of them if you are blotting your whole face. If you need them only for a small area then they are probably perfect. -

I am not sure how I feel about this product. I've been using it every day for close to a month now, it works sometimes and other times it doesn't work the best. I do have combo skin, so I use this as my primer and as a setting spray. Depending on the foundation I use, depends on the effectiveness which possibly has more to do with the foundation than the setting spray but I can't give it 5 stars as it doesn't prevent me from getting greasy by the end of the day or even keeping my make up in place. It is a good size for the price, you get quite a bit of product for the price, there is a bit of a scent but not to bad which is good if you are sensitive to smells, It dries pretty fast as well. All in all I think it is worth a try and I will continue to try it out with different foundations, hopefully it will one day work with one of them. -
Ours by Cheryl Hickey Face & Body Exforliator

I am not a big fan of Cheryl Hickey's brand as I've tried most of her products, however I saw this at Marshall's and I was all out of my exfoliator plus it was only $2.99 CDN so I figured why not give it a shot. I have to say the price for her products is super good but the one thing I noticed right away about this product was the smell, OMG does it ever stink, I can't even say what it smells like but it is very unpleasant. Second thing I noticed after using it a few times is that the beads don't really do anything, certainly don't exfoliate at all. Price is good but the product itself is pretty terrible in my opinion and would not recommend at all. -

First time I have tried anything from this brand and because they are readily available in my local grocery store I decided to give it a try. Pricing is not to bad for an all natural brand, I got it on sale for approx $10 CDN for a little tub, don't let the size of the tub fool you because this stuff will last along time, a small amount goes a long way. For people that have extremely dry skin this would probably work well for as it is really moisturizing and you can definitely feel all the oils that are in the cream. For me there is a little too much oil in the cream as I can feel the layer of cream on my skin so it's impossible to wear under any type of makeup but I use it at night and days where I don't wear makeup. It smells delicious, almost good enough to eat and the consistency is relatively thin but packs a punch. For me once this tub is done I probably wouldn't re-buy just on the basis that it is too oily for me however other than that I liked it very much. -
