I've never used a micellar water before. I'm very impressed with it, it was literally like a magnet for all of my makeup, even waterproof mascara. No scrubbing, just swiped over the skin lightly with a cotton pad, no rinsing either. Everything came off so easily, but it's gentle. Didn't feel too drying. The Science behind micellar molecules is really cool too. The scent was pleasant, not too over powering. My skin felt very clean after use. Will definitely keep a bottle on hand. -
Fresh Sugar Rose Tinted Lip Treatment
I don't see what all the hype is about. I like the tint that it provides and the SPF 15. It smells ok and it's not too sticky/waxy whiles it's on. But I've been using it for the last couple of months and it doesn't smooth my lips, nor do my lips... +
I don't see what all the hype is about. I like the tint that it provides and the SPF 15. It smells ok and it's not too sticky/waxy whiles it's on. But I've been using it for the last couple of months and it doesn't smooth my lips, nor do my lips feel at all hydrated when the product wears off or after I wipe it off. For the price and the serious lack of hydration, I'd say this isn't worth the money. I do love high end products, because I feel a noticeable difference; but with the results I got from this "lip treatment" I'll stick with my drugstore version that I know works, because I can feel it! -

I was intrigued by the claim and name of the product. My lashes have a hard time holding a curl. I have decent lashes, but they are pretty straight and even with a pricey lash curler and improved technique. I'm always looking for some extra help on the lash department.
I gave this a shot. First on its own then with a lash primer. I do not believe this holds (a curl) or actually curls your lashes in anyway. It didn't look or feel like anything special. I've experimented with it these last couple of weeks. Very disappointed. Do not waste your money on this one!! A mascara is mascara. I have $7 tubes and +$35 tubes. They're all basically he same.
Depends on what you want, little volume, little length. Don't expect falsies or magic. Just use strip lashes for that. None are going to give you the true look for falsies.
I wear contacts, this also irritated and dried out them. Had use eyedrops or take them out after much annoyance. (Would not buy again, due to price, and didn't meet their claims for the price paid for product)

I've been experimenting lately with sleep masks, I've tried a few. This one takes the cake! After my nightly cleansing/moisturizing ritual. I apply this mask over those products, before I go to bed. When I wake up, my skin feels smooth, firmer and plumper!! And it looks amazing!! I notice the most difference in my under eye area! The skin there feels younger, firmer and fuller. I'm in love.
The formulation is a gel but spreads out and feels more like a watery consistency. But it's not thick/heavy/sticky. The mask never leaves my skin feeling sticky/uncomfortable in anyway. It's so light! A little product goes a long way. Which is good because for some, the price can be a little steep, but with the jar/amount of product you use on a nightly basis. It should last you awhile. Can't say enough good thugs about this product. If your skin is looking tired/dull. This can revive it, while you sleep! And it smooths out fine lines. Love love love

I love this cleanser!! First got it as a deluxe sample, which a little goes a LONG way, so it lasted awhile. When I ran out I immediately bought a full size bottle. While waiting for shipping I tried other cleansers, which never left my face feeling as clean as I need it to be, to be comfortable. Other cleansers broke me out, this one I've never had a problem.
Love the way this foams, a small pea sized drop is enough for face/neck. Massaging it in for at least a minute (w/ fingers or facial cleansing tool) I feel has made such a huge difference in my skin. My skin never feels tight or stripped afterwards, just very clean and fresh. There's no scent of color added to it. I dont want to be without this product, ever. This just does it for me.

I read a few reviews before actually using this product. From others experience, I was afraid of the balls of gel that from during the peel. Some said that they were impossible to get off. So I first applied the gel peel on dry skin, that I hadn't cleansed (washed + moisturized about 6 hours earlier).
This gel peel is supposed to be a very gentle chemical peel, as you massage it over your face, some of it thickens and forms small sticky balls that pick up your dead skin... So! The first time I used this on unwashed skin, the sticky balls ACTUALLY did pick up dead skin and the balls were a much darker in color than the 2nd time I tried it. it was very easy to rinse off and didn't stick to facial fuzz. 2nd time I used it on washed skin, the little balls that formed, were actually white. So I know that it does what it claims to do. The balls may not be entirely all dead skin, but the sticky balls PICKUP/exfoliate dead skin. It did stick a little to facial fuzz this time. But it didn't take more that an additional 30seconds of rinsing, just cupping a little more warm water over my face, not just lightly splashing my face.
The peel left my skin smooth and feeling very clean. Not sure about the firming/lifting effects it claims to have, I didn't notice anything major immediately. I do like this product and will continue to use. A little goes a long way!

This is the best toothbrush I have ever owned! It cleans my teeth incredibly well, and in a short amount of time. It indicates when to switch sides. It has a built in timer. And the charger has a built in UV light that disinfects the head of the toothbrush. When I went for my annual cleaning/checkup, the dental hygeinist said She didn't need to do anytbing. They were spotless, that wasn't the case in previous checkups. I'm beyond impressed with this toothbrush. Will repurchase. -

When I purchased this, I bought both the loose and pressed powders. I LOVE the loose version. But this pressed version, isn't the same as the loose powder. It is hard to get, what feels like, adequate product out of the pan. As much as I've tried to sweep my brush over the pressed compact, I get next to nothing on my brush/face. It doesn't feel like it has the same texture or finish on the skin, as the loose version. I tried applying with the flat piece of white velvet-y material, which came with the compact. No luck, but i keep this compact in my purse for "emergencies" or the mirror. Try the loose version! You won't be sorry -
Nars light reflecting loose setting powder

LOVE LOVE LOVE! this powder. You can set all over and it won't leave you with an overly powdered dry flat matte looking skin! It's translucent, so it won't change the color of whatever is under the powder. It keeps my makeup in place. My skin just looks alive and has a wonderful natural sheen, not shine! Just the right amount of light. I use it often all over the face, and the jar is only half gone. And I've had it for nearly a year now. So it is pricey, but it has lasted me awhile. I love the sifter with the top. The texture of the powder is unlike any setting powder I've tried. I can't say enough good things about this Nars product. I'll always have this on my vanity. I can say. I prefer the loose powder over the pressed powder. They're suppose to be the same product, in different packaging. But to me, they couldnt be more different. Do yourself a favor and get the loose version. -

This is a great spot treatment! That you're suppose to use on those pimples that you CAN FEEL, but NOT see/havent fully broken through the skin yet. It really does CUT PIMPLE TIME IN HALF! I've noticed that the dark marks usually left behind after a pimple, don't happen anymore (does it STOP THE SCARRING!?) It contains the highest amount of sulphur allowed to dry and draw out those impurities blocking the pore, because of this it does smell a bit strong when applying and fades a bit after it dries down. It's cool that the product contains a liquid and a powder that stay separated in the bottle- you don't shake, and dip a cotton swab through each layer. Applying to cleansed skin, directly onto the developing blemish; preferably before bedtime (looks like calamine lotion, like the stuff used on chicken pox) since it is a bright pink powder/mixture. It can sting a little bit, but it's not bad at all and goes away in a second. Letting it sit over night has worked best for me.
-Cuts pimples time on face, in half. At least!
-No more hyper pigmentation left behind by pimples, where ever I've used this!! I'm sold! I will always have a bottle
