This was so disappointing, as I've loved every other Burt's Bees product I've tried. But this lip balm was awful- it has a gross texture that was both sticky and gritty, it went on white, it had an unpleasant taste and smell, it has a low SPF so needs frequent re-applications, and worst of all: it was drying. The exact opposite of what a "balm" is supposed to be. Fun bonus- when re-applying it to my dried-out lips, the white stuff settles into the cracks for extra nastiness. -
Revlon ColorStay Ultimate Suede Lipstick
This does the job and stays on for hours. But it has a weird dry, sticky texture that is a bit off-putting, and it's fairly drying- I can't even use it in the winter.

Method All-Purpose Cleaner in Pink Grapefruit
I love how this smells, it almost makes me *want* to clean. It's also effective. It's pricey though, and I wish they sold refill packs (or maybe they do, in which case I wish the refills were more widely available).

After years of using oils on my face, especially rosehip seed oil, I tested this in the store and fell in love on the spot. It has the same moisturizing and protective effect as pure oils, but it is less greasy, absorbs better, and doesn't have a weird smell. In fact, the fragrance is amazing. I would buy the perfume version of this, if it existed. I now use this nightly (with the occasional very small dab on very dry spots during the day) and it is so lovely to fall asleep with this smell on my face. -
The Body Shop Waterproof makeup remover

I don't know why this doesn't have more reviews- it's amazing! It removes waterproof mascara better than my formerly favourite micellar water, with a minimum amount of rubbing. You don't need to use a lot, and you don't even need a cotton pad- just splash it your palms and pat it over your eyes. It rinses off well, although I do follow up with a regular cleanser. It does sting slightly if I open my eyes (easy solution: keep my eyes shut), and its pricey, but worth it. -
L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Miss Manga Mascara
This is the only mascara I've found that is both smudge-proof and waterproof. It's also a great mascara on its own, even for those who don't want a super-dramatic "manga" look. I apply just one coat for a more every day look.
