I've tried this product a few times, but every time I've tried to like it, I've been let down.
I love the smell, but I think that is part of the problem with it for me. I have very sensitive skin, and I think it aggravates it. I find the scrub a bit to gritty for me, and it hurts when I wash my far with it. I've also tried the sensitive skin version, but I didn't find it much different. It still has the same scent as the original, so it still breaks me out just as much. I wish It worked for me because its inexpensive and it smells great, but it destroys my skin.. which is pretty awful for a skin care product.

I had purchased the product because I had heard so much hype about the product.
I purchased this item before the packaging had changed to the squeeze tube.
The product itself was alright.. nothing to write home about.
The packaging was awful! The purple rubbed off on fingers whenever I opened it, and then it would get on my face while I was applying makeup. It was so hard to get off, I vowed never to buy it again.
The way it was designed before, also made it impossible to use up all the product, because the want wouldn't fit into the curvy part of the packaging. In that sense, the product has probably improved, but I can't say anything else has changed about it.

This was the first high end make-up product I ever bought, and I still have my original purchase.
The blush is super pigmented, and it lasts forever. I think it is a pretty universal colour that would look great one any skin tone. I will definitely be repurchasing this blush when it runs out.

Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Moist Deep Conditioner
I haven't been able to find this product in my city, but whenever I go cross boarder shopping, I pick up a few bottles. It works amazingly, and it is so cheap!!

Johnson's Baby Shampoo
I don't have a baby, but I love it for washing my make-up brushes. It works just as good, if not better than actual brush cleaners. Multi use product i guess :p

eos Organic Smooth Spheres Lip Balm
I'm addicted to these things, and now that I've tried them, I will never stray away! Sweet mint is my absolute favourite, and it leaves a nice tingle sensation on my lips. ADORE THEM!!

MAC Cosmetics Paint Pots

I bought this product over a year ago, and it is not even half way done (I haven't gone a day without using this product since the day I bought it). The product hasn't dried out, and it works as a great base for eye shadow, or just an all over lid colour to hide any veins that appear on my lid if I'm tired.
This is a higher end product, and its a bit pricey, but considering how often you'll use it, how versatile it is, and how long it lasts, this is a great investment for anyones makeup collection.
Also makes a great concealer if you have a light skin tone (I use the colour painterly).

stila cosmetics Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Stingray

I bought two of these eyeliners after I swatted them in store. I got a sliver and a gold. The colour went on very insence, and after waiting a few seconds and attempting to smudge it off, it didn't budge off my hand.
That being said, the packaging is where this product looses all its value. Both my liners will not twist up AT ALL. So the only product I have been able to use is whatever the pencil was wound up to when I bought them.
I do want to say.. the product itself is amazing! I wish the packaging was better, especially at $22 CND each.
Unfortunately I will b returning the product to Sephora. Very disapointed.

I've been using this face wash off and on for years now.
I have problem skin, and this is one that actually works for me.
Im really not a fan of the smell, but I really like the tightening sensation I feel on my face after I wash.
Makes it feel like its been really deep cleaned.
It is sort of a more expensive face wash, but its not unreasonable considering the results.
This is surprisingly meant for people with oily skin (yes, even thought is is tea tree OIL, it is still safe to use without fear of a breakout.)
