I received this in my FabFitFun box. I just don't think this is a fit for my skin type. I think it's for dry, sensitive skin.
I really gave it a strong chance. I tried it as the first step of my double cleanse since it contains a lot of oils, but that didn't work...it didn't remove any of my makeup. Then, I tried using it as my second step of my double cleanse...it left behind an oily film. Then, I thought maybe if I used it in the morning maybe it would be good. And, nope, sure my skin felt soft, but if I would have just used any other oil based cleanser and had some oil left behind my skin would have also felt soft.
However, I have given this to my sister who has dry and sensitive skin (she struggles a lot finding cleansers) and she seems to not have as many problems with it as I do. So, I'm happy that someone else can get use out of it.

I received this in my CAUSEBOX. The price is great, if I were to repurchase, but I just don't think I have seen enough effects to rationalize repurchasing (rather than continuing on my quest to find new serums that actually work).
The pump is a major issue for me. The serum squirts out everywhere when I push down. It's almost like the pump is too effective and squirts with too much force, if that makes sense.
Unlike some of the serums I have been using, I did not break out, which is great. I just didn't see any positive effects either. My skin was just as hydrated when I used it as when I didn't use it in my nighttime routine.

I received this for free from Urban Decay to review. The formula is good, but the wand is the problem. To make it so my eyelashes weren't in just one big clump, I had to constantly wipe down the wand. I think I wasted about 3/5 of the tube in order to do so. The formula is relatively waterproof. However, it did not stand up to winter/fog. I went on a walk for like 30-40 minutes in the fog and ended up having a black ring all around my eyes. However, that's pretty good compared to other mascaras I've tried.
The wand is the problem, in my opinion. One needs to concentrate very hard to apply mascara, which is not how I want to spend my morning routine.

Savings tip! Check the stores the day after Christmas to pick up value packs that were created for holiday stocking stuffers. I always do this and pick up a year's worth of Burt's Bees for the same price as a 1-pack.
I have tried other lip balms, including some that are more expensive, and I just keep coming back to Burt's Bees. I keep one in every coat pocket, one at my office desk, one by my bed, and one at my other desk.

So, I never liked KitKats before I moved to Japan. Since coming back to America, there have been some new flavors released, including the Dark flavor.
This is still very sweet (which I don't like), but it's the least sweet of all the recent releases. I still can only eat one stick of the fun size before I cannot eat any more. If you like sweets, but the regular red KitKats are too much even for you, this may be a good option.
