I was one of the lucky ladies who received this product as part of the product review club. Immediately after the first use i noticed a difference! my skin was way softer and looked smoother and plumper. the results became more obvious with each use. you don't have to use that much of the product to cover your full face which helps because the product is a bit pricey so it's good to know that the bottle will last a long time. I've only used one night cream before and it was by the body shop and i didn't notice a difference after i finished it. the vichy product is way better! There are only two things I didn't like, one was the smell. Don't get me wrong I like it it smells nice. I just feel like the scent is a little too strong for my own personal taste. Secondly I don't like the jar. I personally prefer tubes or something as I'm a germaphobe. I know all the night creams I've used come in jars so it's not a knock at vichy. hopefully someone can come up with something better than a jar that is constantly open and getting fingers in it. -

I was one of the lucky people who got to try the arm & hammer spinbrush as part of the product review club. The product was easy enough to use. Switch on/off and place in your mouth. I liked the extra long bristles and after each use my teeth did feel cleaner than if i used a manual toothbrush. I don't know if I noticed whitening but that would be something i would look for in the long term. I would definitely recommend this product for someone who wanted a powered toothbrush but didn't want to spend a lot of money. The only thing I didn't like about the brush was the switch to turn it on. When my hands or toothbrush were wet even the slightest bit it was very hard to turn it on. I actually chipped a nail turning it on once trying to turn it on. -

I was one of the lucky ladies who got to test the GOSH mineral powder as part of the product review panel. the product comes in a round container very similar to other powder or mineral powder products and allows you to shake out the desired amount you need. i have uneven skin tone and redness and i found using only a small amount of powder i was really able to even out my skintone. so it definitely lives up to its medium to full coverage description. it was also not too cakey on my skin which can happen with some products. i usually use makeup forever products and i found the results pretty comparable. I'm not sure what the rice point of this product is but if its cheaper i would definitely consider purchasing it again. -

I was one of the lucky ladies who got to test the GOSH defining brow gel as part of the product review panel. Firstly my eyebrows are very thick and dark on their own so they don't really need that much definition. However I found this product great for taming this odd hairs that stick in the wrong direction and just giving my brows a clean look. I've used a clear mascara before for this same purpose and I found this product to work very similar to that product. The colour it came in was a light brownish colour and my brows are a very dark black so in some spots you could see the brown gel colour sticking out but i just rubbed it in with my fingers and it was fine. I would definitely recommend this for people with thinner or lighter brows who are looking for some definition and a pop of colour. -

I was one of the lucky ladies who got to test the GOSH double precision mascara as part of the product review panel.I liked that there are two brushes, one for the top and bottom lashes, i also use the small brush on the top lashes in the corners where my lashes are a little smaller. It's a good option to have since using your regular mascara on the bottom lashes usually results in clumps. Aside from that I didn't notice that much difference or benefit of using this product compared to my regular mascara that I use. I have very thick, dark lashes already so I have never really noticed thickening, lengthening, etc with drugstore brands. So if this retails for around 5-8 dollars I think I would definitely consider purchasing this mascara and recommending it to friends to buy. However If it's more expensive I'll stick with the products I'm currently using. -

I was one of the lucky ladies who got to test the GOSH lip lacquer as part of the product review panel. The colour of the gloss was bright and vibrant. It also smelled awesome (like apples). It was long lasting so I could put it on and didn't have to constantly reapply, the colour stayed. The staying power is something that I thought was more superior in this product compared to other products I have used in the past. My lips also felt hydrated and moisturized after using the product. The specific colour that we received was a bright red that I probably wouldn't pick out for myself, however I would definitely consider buying a more neutral tone for everyday wear. The only thing I didn't like about the product was the applicator. It's not unusual for this type of product but I felt it wasn't precise and went over my lips in some spots. Aside from that I would definitely recommend this product and would consider buying it again (just a different colour). -

I was one of the lucky people who had a chance to try the new arm & hammer truly radiant toothpaste via the product review club. The product seemed to be doing what it advertised. My teeth definitely felt very clean after each brushing. Five days later were they brighter and/or whiter? I'm not sure lol! I guess I should have taken a before picture. I don't drink coffee, wine or eat chocolate so this may be why I couldn't notice a dramatic difference. I'll wait until I've used the entire tube to make a judgement on this claim. There was no price stated but I would assume this toothpaste costs the same as other toothpastes. The only thing I didn't like about the product was that when using it I had this weird fishy taste in my mouth (not sure if this is normal or other eople experienced it), it was kind of gross. For that reason I probably wouldn't buy it myself and stick to my regular toothpaste. -

I'm one of those people who have fairly big eyes with generally long and thick lashes and struggle to fit them in a curler! Previous curlers would leave my lashes out and leave me with half curled weird looking lashes so I stopped using the curlers. Not exaggerating but when I curled my lashes with Shu Uemura Curler , I did not feel the need of putting on the mascara! It felt like I'm wearing false lashing. I mean it just looked awesome and gave such a dramatic look. I haven't replaced the pads in maybe 4 years but it still works great. Captures all my lashes at once, never pinches, gives a perfect curl without actually crimping. -

Packaging: I really like the velvety feel of the packaging, but it's really difficult to clean. I've also noticed the letters have begun to chip off a little, which is slightly annoying for such an expensive product.
Price: A little pricey at $52, but definitely worth the price.
Pros: Beautifully pigmented, Lasts long, Blends well
Cons: Pricey
Texture: The shadows are very silky and smooth, which makes them easy to blend into each other. They're really easy to apply because of their texture.
Comments: I've used this almost every day since I purchased it in October! All the colors are incredibly gorgeous and look perfect on all skin tones.

This is an amazing lip balm. I recently found a set of three at Winners for $6 and I thought that was a good deal considering it costs more than $6 at Shopper's Drug Mart. When you first apply the lip balm, it gives you a nice, cooling, tingly feeling that lasts for a couple of minutes. The lip balm itself is quite waxy and thick but after a while it softens up and I've gotten used to it. This lip balm will also last a long time. After a few days of use my lips were soooo soft. -
