When I first received it, I thought it would be really strong and overpowering. Surprisingly, the scent was really light, yet freshening. However, when I think of linen scent, I think of laundry detergent/fabric softener smell. This freshener did not have enough of that scent, which for some people would be a good thing. I love laundry/fresh linen scent so I was a little disappointed. However, my father, who hates fragrance of any kind, did not even complain when I put the freshener on. I put it on the lowest setting and it is diffusing quite nicely. I have another scent that I will try when this one runs out.
Overall, I love how there is a setting control and how easy it is to install (just clip it on the air vent!). Can't wait to try more!! :)

This mascara is awesome for creating fullness and volume to the lashes; however, I would not recommend using it for definition or lash separation. Also, if you curl your lashes beforehand and apply this mascara, your lashes will lose some curl. This is probably due to the brush and mascara being so thick that it weighs the lashes down. When I put my false lashes on and sweep this through, it works really good and adds that oomph my falsies need! Benefit BADGal is an overall great product... just depends on what you're using it for and the look you are trying to achieve! -

A big thank you to Chick Advisor for sending me this lovely product.
When I received this product, I was just getting used to first year university life. Even though the work load hasn't hit full force yet, I still found myself staying up countless nights. I used this product daily as instructed. The scent was very refreshing and the application was very smooth- not at all greasy. However, when I first rolled it on, I thought the amount dispensed was too little, because you can barely tell whether you applied it or not. When I looked in the mirror, I saw the reflection of the product, so I knew I put it on. Although it's very refreshing, especially in the morning, it did make my eye makeup smudge, possibly due to the oils in the product.
I like this product, because it's very light and makes you feel more energized, even if it doesn't significantly reduce eye bags/dark circles. I haven't noticed a big difference in my under eye dark circles, so I wouldn't pay the price for the product. But if it's free... no harm in trying, right?! ;-)

I bought the new Infinity pads and I can't blown away. They are amazing, because they absorb really well and do not leak at all. I use the overnight ones, because my period is quite heavy. I definitely recommend these!!

i first discovered this perfume when I stopped by at a Duty Free Store. I sprayed some on my wrist, where there was a hair elastic. The elastic still smelled of the perfume over a month later, so the staying power was really great. I also noticed that it smells even better with time. The floral notes are very pleasant and not too strong where it gives you a headache. This is definitely one of my perfume staples! -

This is an amazing perfume- one of the best in my collection! i bought this, because I love the Dior brand and thought that this might be for me. When I sniffed it from the bottle, I thought that it was too musky and too strong- like something someone older would wear. However, when I spray it on my skin, I was pleasantly surprised! It smells very nice, it's very feminine and classy. It's a very sophisticated perfume, but it's not too strong either. I wore it last night while dancing, but it wore off (I guess, from all the sweat!). Needless to say, this perfume is perfect for me, especially because I do not like bubblegum girly-girl smelling perfumes. -

At first, this was a great, even amazing, product. It was very creamy and was very easy to apply. I used this before I mastered using liquid eyeliner. The trouble came after a few months... it cracked and then it totally dried up. Maybe I didn't screw the lid on tight enough, but I am very disappointed in what happened. I haven't even used up half of the contents, yet. I love MAC thought and will still use their products- this one was just not for me. -

I have used the Mario Badescu drying cream and it has worked really well, so I figured that this would be even better for my stubborn whiteheads. I've been applying it religiously for the past week, but unfortunately, they do not seem to be disappearing! I've had more luck with the cream.
As for deep pimples, this works very gradually. It will dry it up, but this product does not make anything disappear overnight. That is an exaggeration.
If you want to get rid of primarily whiteheads, give this a go. I guess it's still early for me to tell for sure, but the overnight claim is an exagerration for sure. I'll still continue to use it, because this seems to be the only product to eradicate whiteheads!!

I have these in three different colours: light blue, dark green, and gold. The vibrant colours are great at making one's eyes pop. These are also extremely waterproof. I once did colour swatches on my hand and these didn't come off until a day later, even with vigorous scrubbing. However, if you layer this on top of eyshadow and regular kohl liner, most of it comes off when you wash your face. I'm presuming it's the oils in the eye makeup underneath, so I would suggest one to use an oil based product under before applying this. I wouldn't recommend wearing this alone, unless you are okay with it for a day (or even two!).
At least it's very dependable and I know it won't come off if it starts raining!

This lip balm is amazing for shiny, gold lips. There is a golden shimmer, which you can layer. I like to use this with lip gloss and then layering this on top to create a golden shimmer. It is not that great to use on dry lips though, because the gold will be stuck in the dry skin and creases. Always moisturize lips or use a clear balm first before applying this one. -
