I bought these on a whim and they are fantastic! I was surprised how fresh and cool the tea comes out from the hot brewer - it is ready to drink instantly. Not too lemony, and not too sweet, it is the perfect refreshing summer drink. The only thing that is kind of annoying is having to put in ice all the time - if you drink a few of these in the day or for a group the ice will run out really easily. Overall though, worth the price for a treat. -

I LOVE this nail polish line! The colours are great, vibrant, and go on well most of them in 2 coats. By far my favourite line, not just of drug store, but I like it more than some of the higher end varnishes. The price is especially good when you get it at Walmart, or on sale. Paparazzi Pleaser (which I have only ever seen in the US) is a standout - it is a perfect grape! Club Prive is great as well, a dupe for Essie Turks'n'Caicos. Highly recommend! -

Like most people, I got this in the Naked palette. From the first time i tried it I noticed a difference in my eye makeup. Shadow lasts all day without fading and still looks great after a day of work. The main difference I've noticed is with my eyeliner though. I have always had a problem with under eye smudging and since using this primer my eyeliner stays on great! Now if only I could find a face primer that I love as much... -

After using this foam colour for the last few times I've dyed my hair at home, I would never use anything else!
Contrary to some of the other reviews about the colour, I used the medium chocolate brown and it was just as described! I had a reddish brown hair to start, and this colour went just fine over that to do the chocolate brown. I have gotten loads of complements on the colour of my hair as well, which is not something I usually get!
This foam is so easy and user friendly, just follow the directions in the package as is. The foam is easy to apply, and with hair just below my shoulders (medium length i suppose) there is more than enough foam in the bottle. I apply to the roots first, splitting just as on the directions, and then lather like my shampoo. The smell is great, not at all like normal hair dye, and because it's so foamy and wet, its so easy to make sure you haven't missed a spot when doing it on your own. It doesn't stain towels or anything either as far as I've noticed, except my head a little bit which is normal for me and goes away quite quickly.
I've tried other foams before and been really disappointed, but this one has been fabulous every time I've used it (about 4 times now). My hair looks great, smells great, and feels great. Especially for just a little more than regular brands, it's still way less than paying at a salon and way easier than a normal dye.

Garnier Skin Renew Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream for Combination to Oily Skin

My sisters and I got this a few weeks ago as we had heard about BB creams and really wanted to try it out!
I have combination skin and i was quite skeptical at first, as I always have trouble finding good face products that provide coverage, even out my skin tone, and last, without feeling heavy. I tried this for a night out, and was really impressed.
The BB Cream provides light coverage fine for a normal day out, but for going out, I normally wear it with concealer. It is light, and reminds me of a cross between tinted moisturizer and foundation. It lasts longer than any tinted moisturizer I've used, so by lunchtime I still look fresh faced! The only thing I've noticed after repeated wear is that if I put on my normal moisturizer before the BB Cream, I can 'feel it', so on days I plan to wear it, I skip that part of my skin care routine.
Overall though, a great product, which has become part of my regular cycle of face creams, and definitely worth a try for someone who likes light coverage without a heavy feeling.

I absolutely love this mascara! I was at the Benefit counter trying on something else, and the sales person showed me this new mascara, putting it on one eye so I could compare - wow. You could really see the difference vs my normal drugstore brand mascara.
I like this because I feel like it makes my eyes look great and 'finished' every time I'm wearing it, even when I don't have any other makeup on. It lengthens my lashes, finds all the little side lashes that you don't usually reach, and I can layer it as thick as I like without it clumping. I normally have major clumping issues with every mascara I use and this is the first one that, three months on, is still working just as good as the day I got it.
Overall great defining mascara, would definitely recommend. While the price is higher than you could get with some other brands, it's worth it for the great lasting quality.
