I was hesitant to purchase the blue Flash & Go Luxx 2 years ago on Black Friday but it was the best decision I had ever made!!!
As an Asian girl, I am hairier than most... I would wax my legs and epilate my underarms every single week!! I would also give myself a Brazilian wax every 3 weeks or so...it was painful but I didn't feel comfortable going to a professional hair removal clinic...
After extensive research on this particular brand, because it was not technically a real laser and comes with a lifetime cartridge, I decided to bite the bullet and waited for the big Black Friday sale to come!
I followed its directions and used it every 4 weeks on my legs, underarms, upper lip area and my private area--which was where I really wanted to use it in the first place...
I used it on the highest setting since I have a high pain tolerance. But It's not at all painful.
I found it difficult having to wait so long after each session but after the 3rd or 4th use, I began to notice a HUGE difference!!
The hair on my legs and underarms had a dramatic reduction!! The hair on my private area however, did NOT have much of an effect...and THAT was completely disappointing...it was most likely because hair down there is more thick than everywhere else, and the pulse light isn't very strong to zap it away...Oh well...
But flash forward to present day, and I no longer need to wax my legs or epilate my underarms anymore!!! I am so very happy for this! I have a couple of hair sprouting here and there, but it's thin and not very noticeable..
Normally I can see all the hair follicles or dark spots after shaving--which I don't find attractive, but now my legs look smooth, 'poreless' and I love it!!!!
Best product ever!!--Just don't use it for your genitals...
Definitely worth the splurge if you want to get rid of your hair once and for all!!--It's a lifetime product and not necessary to purchase more cartridges!!
.--Funny thing, I ended up going to a professional for my genital area, since they have strong lasers that will thin out, and reduce the thick hair and I am also happy to splurge on this service as well. (Just go to a reputable company that have the latest technology and techs who know what they're doing!!-- It's more painful than this pulse light device but if you have a high pain tolerance, then I definitely recommend it!)

The smell is pleasant and the packaging looks high end too!
This product should be a staple in everyone's lip balm collection!

Spraying this product throughout my hair prior to blow drying and using a straightening iron, my dry, thick hair feels super light and soft!
Although I've noticed that if I don't blowdry my hair right after using it and just letting it air dry, my hair feels a bit oily, heavy and not as soft.... which is why I gave it 4 stars on the effectiveness department...
It's supposed to be a heat protectant but also repair and smooth out frizz and flyaways--which I find it does seem to do! But it is pretty pricey....

This is the best product I've come across in a long time!
I've used regular BB creams and foundations that come in a pump, but this packaging is amazing! The cushion compact is very simple and super convenient when you're on the go!
Just pat the product on with its sponge lightly. The outcome is very dewy and fresh looking! My skin looks bright and smooth. I also like that it has an SPF of 50.
I would definitely re-purchase this again!

I don't like to leave my house without wearing blush and this is the blusher that I always reach for!!
It provides such a pretty, natural glow on my skin and makes it look super flawless!
The colour is beautiful and lights up my skin without the shimmer or glitter effect.
All the blushes are marbled and have a mixture of gold and various shades of pinks. They go on super smooth and stay on pretty long throughout the day.
I like to wear the 1st and 2nd colours in the palette and I have the single blush in radiant magenta, which also creates a super healthy glow whenever I'm feeling/looking tired.
Definitely my go-to blush!

I was looking for a cream blush that would work well on my dry skin for this fall/winter.
This blush was one of the top cream blushers I've tried so far! Its texture is so smooth and is very pigmented, so it's best not to apply too much. I use my fingers to apply the product and it blends out easily with my blush brush.
It makes my skin look so dewy, natural and fresh-looking! This product lasts throughout the day which really impressed me.
I had bought a bright pink (Laid) and a soft pastel pink colour (Promise). Really like them both! Can also be worn on the lips.
I definitely recommend this for those looking for a cream blush.

The design of this bottle is what really impressed me!
I liked the handle on the lid, its efficiency on how easy it is to open with just one hand and its secure safety latch to make sure spills don't occur accidently.
It's BPA free and comes in two sizes, 500ml and 750ml. Also comes in different colours.
The only reason I gave it 3 1/2 stars on quality is because if you happen to drop the bottle like I did, the lid itself is not quite durable and the lock system broke off. Only the body was intact...
However, I still really like the overall design and will be careful not to break my new one!

I am so happy that I can finally stop searching for an exfoliator that actually gets rid of my dry, flaky skin!!
I've tried the St. Ives scrub which is highly recommended here, but for some reason it just made my flaky skin on my forehead even flakier. Not a pretty sight! I considered getting a peel at the spa and even trying microdermabrasion, but then I googled 'how to get rid of dry, flaky skin' and came across an article that raved about this product because it's a chemical scrub that works by having its enzymes do the job and you just rinse right after. Not having to physically scrub your face at all!
The price is really, really, really steep! But I was desperate so I bit the bullet.
Needless to say, after I read its directions and followed up with my serum, and moisturizer, I noticed a huge-ass difference! I would say 98% of all my flakes on my forehead were completely gone!! I couldn't believe it.
If you have severe dry skin like I do in the winter time, then I would definitely recommend this amazing product!
I've used it a 2nd time to remove my remaining dry patches, and now my skin is super smooth! All I need now is to find an amazing anti-wrinkle cream...

Awesome product!
I like everything about it. The size, the shatterproof window that allows you to see how much is inside, the durable aluminum material, and the quick and easy step to refill it.
I had to return Sephora's version of this atomizer because it seemed be leaking and was way pricier.
So all in all, great to tuck in your purse and use on the go!

I wanted to really like this new lip stain but it was kind of difficult and I was pretty disappointed.
The colour doesn't seem to last that long at all--even if it is a stain and is supposed to last longer than a gloss and lipstick.
Its scent is quite nasty and rancid. Left my lips pretty dry too.
Although it comes in a pretty and fancy tube, I would have to pass on this lip product.
