Got this product because I wanted to save money by doing my on nails, and also save time for I am a busy woman. I tried this product with all Essie nail products (base, polish,top), I usually apply 2 coats of polish because it obviously looks better. I don't apply alot because I want it to dry faster, but, 2 coats produce the best results.
I applied the drops as instructed (which as advertised should dry in 60 seconds) smudged after 15 minutes!
Then I tried applying it after each coat. Complete DISASTER! After the first coat dried, I cleaned and dried my nails to apply the second coat. The second took an hour to dry and the top coat even longer; all smudging throughout the day
Only one coat application was successful, but there isn't complete coverage with only one coat!
So unless Essie is going to start producing nail polish that only needs one coat for full coverage. The Quick-e dry drop solution is a nuisance.
It should only be advertised as "reduces drying time" or "60 seconds with one coat" with no specification, otherwise its a f**king lie.

NEUTROGENA HYDRO BOOST WATER GEL not only has a very nice sent but does not leave that gross gray/purple/blue residue behind. It spreads easily across my skin and I do not need a large amount to achieve my needs. Due to the current weather in Canada ( We just had our 4th winter) I am unable to review on its effectiveness towards protecting my skin from the sun. However, I will update this review when the time permits me to do so.
PROS:
No residue
Spreads easily
Good Value
CONS:
Non

I enjoyed using this face wipe. I only had to use up to 2 wipes per my makeup removal session and the packaging did a marvelous job at keeping my wipes moist until the very end of the pack. The packaging was easily portable too. Also a major plus, after I used this product I did not have dry skin. However, like all make-up removal wipes I've used, they fail to remove eye make easily.
PROS:
Easily portable
Removes faces make-up easily
NO DRY SKIN AFTER USE, YAY!
CONS:
Does not remove eye make-up

The product is a god send for my situation. I recently get a tattoo and the area was starting to serious inflame. Due to the fact that I have sensitive skin the rash was spreading further on my upper body, YIKES! Thankful, I got the chance to try AVEENO ULTRA-CALMING HYDRATING GEL CLEANSER for this situation or I never would have of thought to use it. This gel moisturizer not only helps calm down the rash but limited its spreading. Plus the added bonus of the irritation cooling down.
However, I cannot see myself buying this product on a continuous basis because of the quantity that is given. For someone with sensitive skin that gets eczema and rashes often, I would prefer something that would last with multiple uses. Also, it has limited distribution vs amount used, one would have to use A LOT to was entire body.
PROS:
Soothes skin rash
smoothes skin
limites the spread of rashes
CONS:
Weak distribution for its application
Very small size for it price

Aveeno Ultra-Calming Daily Moisturizer with SPF 30

WOW! WOW! WOW! I was very pleasantly pleased when using this product. Now unfortunately I live in a climate (Canada) where we are facing our 3rd winter, so I wont be able to attest to the effectiveness of the SPF 30.
HOWEVER, I used this product on a very tender and VERY vulnerable rash, the tattoo rash. And ladies and gents who have tattoos know the thin ice period of rash leading to healing or rash leading to infection, It's a scary place (especially if you have sensitive skin) .
So when I was in a dilemma of products not soothing my recent tattoo and then feared my rash was leading to infection, I took a leap of faith and used this product, and boy was I glad I did.
It cooled down the rash and the itchiness in a reasonable amount of time and it stayed calm for over 5 hours. I also suffer from Eczema and heat bumps from sunburn so I can't wait to so how this baby works when I need it.
PROS:
It works!
It soothes irritation
Limits the risk of infection from irritation
Cute transportable bottle
CONS:
Small bottle 68ml
Pricey for size
Wish the soothing process was faster
Has a sent ( which contradicts 'fragrance free')

This body spray does LITERALLY what commercials say. I spray it on at the gym when I think I'm smelling funky and, NO LIE, THE BOYS COME TO MY YARN. It the milkshake of body spray. Hey I'm pretty cute on a try hard day, and within 5 minutes of my workout guys and gurls will walk by and comment "oh, something smells really good... Is that you? " or " That smells good, what is that?" or "You.. You smell good, what perfume is that? " and I tell them, "it's AXE for chicks" and they say "Oh really, that smells really good". It also conceals any sweat or unwanted smell for hours. LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!
PROS:
SMELLS GREAT!
Conseals bad odors
Attractive packaging
Great value for your buck
CONS:
No other sents available in my area (Eastern Ontario) Boooo!

This product is great when you need to detangle your hair or you need to apply a leave in conditioner for the next day. I find that I still have to cross mix oils with this product for a more permanent solution for when ever I face dry damaged hair ( which defeats the purpose).
Pros:
Helps detangle with ease
Smells great
Moisturizes hair
Great for protective styles
Cons:
If you apply a little too much to your hair will be damp and not style well the next day.
It doesn't resolve longterm dry damaged hair issues ( more of a temporary solution).

This makeup remover is pretty good, its has a great value for its size and leaves your skin feeling smooth afterwards.
Pros:
Great size
Cleans off 70% of makeup off face in first wipe
Leaves skin feeling smooth and clean.
Cons:
Drys out face
Not very effective with eye makeup removal
You need a lot of the solution on cloth/ dry face wipe to effectively remove make.
In conclusion, It works for me .

This product is the ONLY face cleanser that I've tried to date that keeps my oily, acne prone skin tame. Also, after long durations of use I find that my acne scarring starts to fade. Also, ALSO, the amount that you get for the price is AMAZING! It last for so long and you don't need to use much to wash your face. I use this product in the morning and before bed.
Lifetime customer for sure!
