I've tried a lot of acne serums over the years and this is by far my favorite. First, it has a pleasant, slightly citrus scent. Secondly, it's effective. But what really makes it stand out for me is the texture. Instead of being a water-like liquid like most serums I've tried, it's more of a gel. This makes it so much easier for me to put a dot on my finger and apply it just where needed. For someone that only needs spot treatment here and there, this is a real winner for me for that reason! -

This is a nice, effective cleanser that left my skin feeling clean and soft without being overly dry. I like how lightweight it is and how easily it rinses off. The main downside for me is the scent; it smells somewhat antiseptic, like a hospital scent. I still like the cleanser for its effectiveness, but would appreciate a more pleasant scent. -

Overall, I really loved this serum. The scent especially was pleasant, and I loved how smoothly it went onto my skin and how quickly it absorbed. It left my skin feeling soft and nourished. I will say that the sample packs were pretty awkward to use and not my favorite. Assuming the serum is in an actual bottle, it's a great product. -

My two teenagers love fresh, outdoor scents for their body wash, and this scent was one they both loved. I appreciated the aloe, since we have a family history of sensitive skin and a little extra soothing and moisturization is always nice. I also appreciate that it's sustainably sourced and biodegradable. The only real complaint I have about it is that, in my opinion, it's too heavily scented to make a good face wash. As a body wash, it's great. -

This cleansing oil is perfect for removing stubborn eye makeup and other makeup residue. While it's too rich for me to use over my whole face every day, I do love using it once a week to add some extra hydration to my skin, and use it whenever needed on my eye area to remove eye liner and shadow. It has a pleasant, not-overpowering scent and a great smoothing texture. Overall, a perfect cleansing oil for dry skin in need of nourishment. -

I've been fascinated by Flawless products for as long as I can remember. I was excited to finally give this product a try and see how it worked for me. It took a bit of figuring out at first; it's hard to target the hair you want to remove, stretch the skin taut with one hand and operate the device with the other hand. But once I figured that out, the results were great. It really is essential to pull the skin taut to get smooth results, even in places that seem like doing so wouldn't be needed. Overall, I liked the results and how painless using the device was. The compact size makes it great for using anytime and anywhere, and I love how it looks like a sleek little lipstick tube. -

I love Batiste; it's my go-to dry shampoo when I don't have time to wash my hair. This new scent and formula worked just as well as the other products I've tried, but I found the scent a little too strong, especially right after application. Green tea is normally one of my favorite scents, but it didn't come through as much as I would have liked in this blend. A great product overall if you like the scent; it just wasn't for me personally. -
COVERGIRL Simply Ageless Lash Plumping Mascara

This is a nice everyday mascara that results in dark, clump-free lashes. I haven't used it enough to confirm if it actually makes my lashes look healthier permanently, but I like the overall look of the mascara and it's been my go-to lately. There's nothing to really make it stand out from other brands when I use it, but overall it's a nice formula with a high-quality brush that provides pretty results. -

I have trouble finding a nice lightweight moisturizer that doesn't cause acne breakouts. This one is it! It left my skin feeling hydrated without any greasiness. I gave it four stars because the one thing that could make it better, in my opinion, is adding sunscreen to the formula. Overall, though, a great daytime moisturizer for acne-prone skin. -
