I have been using tampons for about 10 years now, and I have tried many different kinds over the years. Overall my favorite brand is definitely O.B. Tampons. I have tried plenty of tampons with applicators and I actually don't like them as much. For some reason I feel like they don't open up enough to keep leaks from happening. O.B. tampons without the applicators work much better for me. The Ultra Absorbency tampons stop leaks from happening and keep me feeling clean and fresh. I cant even feel them, which is even better, and it almost helps make me feel like I'm not even on my period, other than the bloating/cramps at times. I know they say the higher the absorbency of tampons, the more the risk of getting TSS (Toxic Shock Syndrome), so I try to even out the amount of absorbencies I use. I mostly use these Ultra Absorbency tampons during the heaviest days and try to stick with Supers or Regulars on other days. They have a multipack you can buy at most stores. They're small and discreet, so they're easy to take with you and store anywhere. I highly recommend O.B. Tampons!! -

My signature scent, I've been in love with Rush since I smelled it in 'Elle' magazine in late 1999. It's richly oriental with an intriguing synthetic note, warm and seductive but utterly modern, even futuristic. This is a very sexy scent that's not suitable for everyone or every occasion, and must be worn with confidence. It's got major sillage and lasting power - one spray on the back of my neck in the morning is plenty until the next morning. I actually like the packaging, both because it looks really retro-futuristic and artistic and because it protects the juice from sunlight, so I can keep it on my dresser. Oh, and the shiny red metallic slipcover.A fragrance for the adventurous for sure, but I think everyone secretly wants to be the Rush girl at least for one night. -

I have tried every maybelline mascara and most covergirl and rimmel and this is by far the best. I have natural long thick lashes but this mascara can give me huge lashes in just a few strokes. It's cheap and the packaging is cute and it's small. I will continue to buy this until the day I die, it's incredible! It's my holy grail mascara and has not fail me. This mascara separates my lashes and makes them look full. People ask me if I am wearing falsies all the time when I wear this mascara ( I have long lashes) . I love the brush and how it nicely coats and combs my lashes. One of my all time favorites! -

Pros:gentle. simple. pleasant scent. soft skin.
Cons:costs more than drugstore brands, but worth it.
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend this - and the 32oz bottle w/pump from QVC.
I've become a bit obsessed with Philosophy products. I'm sure it has to do with the cute, simple packaging and the words of wisdom on the bottles, but they all so far have worked for me and I haven't been let down. My skin is combination and prone to breakouts.
Purity made Simple was the first Philosophy product I tried. It was highly recommended by my mother who suffers from Psoriasis and has changed all of her beauty products to those that are simpler, have less chemicals, etc. This cleanser is one that she found on QVC and she's had great luck with it. I was so convinced that it would work for me that I immediately purchased the 32oz bottle with pump from QVC - about $40.
Using Purity Made Simple
Like many others here, I was very excited to first use this product. The 32oz bottle with pump is awesome - just one pump should do the job - and extremely convenient for use in the shower. The consistency of this cleanser is similar to that of PhisoDerm - slightly runny and not terribly thick. There are no exfoliants and there is a gentle, pleasant scent. When your skin is prone to breakouts or if you have any acne at the moment, grainy exfoliants are necessarily the best thing - you want something that will cleanse gently and that's what this product is.
I wet my face, use one pump, and then rub my hands together and gently apply the cleanser in circles around my cheeks/chin/neck/forehead areas, even over my eyes. Then I rinse. It's very gentle and rinses away easily. Then, my skin feels extraordinarily soft! No fireworks, no red skin from all the rubbing of exfoliants, no tight feeling, just clean, soft skin. The only makeup I tend to use is a tinted moisturizer, so if you use a heavy foundation and heavy eye makeup, you may need to use more or wash twice but I find that one pump is perfect for me.
In the mornings, I follow this with Philosophy's Hope in a Jar moisturizer and my tinted moisturizer...at night, I usually use nothing else unless I'm breaking out, I use Philosophy's On a Clear Day H202 peroxide cream on areas where I've broken out so they dry out before I wake up.

I thought it was very simple to use, and for me…it did last. Mine lasted about a week and a half. No chips, however, I tried it on my toes, so that might make a difference. I like the fact that it doesn’t need a light to cure. It does dry fairly fast.Overall I really liked it! On day 5 my nails had very minimal chipping . The only thing I wish it had more of was that thick, shiny look true gels give but I can add another top coat to achieve that later. It was very easy to remove and it didn't feel nearly as damaging as a true gel polish removal. I will definitely be picking up more colors! I wish it wasn't as expensive but it's cheaper than going to a salon and getting gel manicures, and you can reuse the polish for more than one manicure. I'm utterly OBSESSED with this product!I am definitely going to be purchasing more colors! The applicator is awesome because in two swipes you cover your whole nail! Its definitely fool proof and beginner friendly and the color and shine factor is amazing! =) -
