I received this product from the company's PR for review purposes. Overall, I liked this product, but it was not my favorite blush I have ever tested. It is really nice for daywear. I like how they make it super easy to choose a shade for your skin tone (it is split up in light/medium/deep), and then there are other shades. I received the light nude, and it gave a nice outline to cheek bones. It has a good lasting power, and it feels VERY light on the skin (which I love). I find that many powder blushes/bronzers tend to look over cakey on the skin, but not this one. It matches really nicely and leaves your skin airy-feeling. It comes with a mini flat brush, but I find my own blush brush more effective (I like using bigger brushes, generally). I think the price is just about average, although I have tried bronzers/blushes that I have liked more at a lower price point. So, I would recommend this product for those looking for a nice day-wear blush, to feel and look natural and light! -

This is my favorite anti-perspirant I have ever tried. It really works. Keeps you dry al day long. It goes on clear, limited streaking on clothing. I particlarly love the scent it comes in. My favorite are the Vanilla chair and Shea scent. This one keeps you fresh above many other brands I have tried. -

I received this as a Christmas present and I love it. I was really struggling a while ago trying to pick between a blackberry or an iPhone, and decided to go with the blackberry over it because of price point mainly (I got a great deal!), although I always wanted the iPhone for its lust factor. Now, I have the best of both worlds, and I love that you can do basically anything you can do with the iPhone on the iPod touch...and if you need to use a phone, as long as you're in wifi area and DL Skype, it has that functionality as well! It's brilliant! The new ones are really great for taking pictures as well if you don't have a camera handy- the pic quality is quite good and it has a reverse camera, where you can videotape yourself (if you want to do a little blog video or something). Love it! Can't say enough about this product, or Apple prods in general. -

I really like this lipgloss. It comes in a variety of beautiful shades, from more highly pigmented to really nude or clear (with shimmer). The price point is really good, and you can always find these at either Victoria Secret stores or La Senza. It lasts a lot longer than a normal gloss would, and they all have really delish smells! The only thing I'm not particularly fond of is the fact that they are a little bit sticky for my licking (but that is why they last so long on your lips). Overall, thumbs up! -

I LOVE this movie. Besides 'Home Alone', this is my favorite Christmas time movie. I watch it at least twice during the Holidays. I love the fact that it is so over-the-top, and that Will Farrell plays such a CUTE character. This is probably the most adorable movie. It is great for everyone- and would definitely recommend it for a family viewing. Can't say enough about this film, and how cute it is! -

I went to the MaryKay launch party for this new foundation and received a skin matching consultation for this awesome foundation. I learned something very important there, which was to always match your foundation to your neck (not your jaw line or your hand). I love the foundation! It is super light, yet it has buildable coverage. It blends into my skin flawlessly. The price point is very reasonable, as this foundation will last you forever and Mary Kay prides themselves in making products that have a long lasting power. The foundation did not crease or smear. It looked exactly as when I applied at the end of the day, which is awesome. The luminous wear has some light reflecting-type crystals that make the skin glow!
This prod. receives a two thumbs up from me!

I saw a girl I knew wearing this really great gloss, and I asked her what brand it was and it turns out it was the L'oreal glam shine. I went out and bought it and I really like it on myself as well!

- it lasts more than the average gloss after application
- I like the applicator; it makes it easy to use
- it comes at a reasonable price point
Overall, I would definitely recommend this gloss!

I received this product at the company's foundation launch party. This is a very high quality primer. It comes out of the tube in a gel like consistency, and when you apply, it turns into a matte-powder finish (but it doesn't look powder-y) I have used this product on its own, without any foundation on top because it does a really great job creating a flawless complexion without the make-up on top. It is a great option for those who want very limited coverage and do not like wearing foundation. It makes your skin feel SO soft and silky. Redness is instantly gone after application. You can also use it on your lips and eyes; lips before lipstick/eye make-up application for a longer lasting fresh face. I really like this product and would definitely recommend! -

I thought this product was just about average in all categories. It had pretty limited staying power (usually lasted about 1 hour or less). The color was really pretty ( I got the nude shade). It provided a little color and a slight gloss. It wasn't overly glossy, which is really nice for a daytime wear. Also, it isn't too sticky, which passes the hair blowing in the wind test. The price point is also pretty average for a gloss. One thing I didn't particularly like about the product is the packaging/application. I generally gravitate more towards the brush applicators, and like more original packaging. I liked the fact that the product had limited scent, because in lip gloss it can be particularly disturbing. Overall, there is nothing really bad about this product, but there isn't anything WOW about it either, which is why I chose to not recommend. -

This is a very high quality shampoo/conditioner duo. I received this from the brand after attending a new product launch. It leaves the hair so shiny, smooth, and healthy feeling. I literally thought my hair felt thicker after using this! My ends were much more smooth and I had less fly-aways. You only need to use a small amount to get full effectiveness-- and it is well worth the price. I really love the scent; it is not too overpowering, and it is very pleasant. I would definitely recommend this product- the quality is truly high end! -
