I got this product to try from a magazine and am pretty happy with the results. I usually do not find that foaming cleansers leave my skin feeling clean enough, but I liked the results that I got with this product. My skin is pretty average and I don't have many breakouts, but this product pretty much eliminated the few blemishes and problems that occasionally pop up. It left my skin feeling clean, and was not drying. I would buy this product again. -

I won this in the Chick advisor birthday giveaway and it has become one of my favourite lip glosses.
I have to day though that it in no way, what so ever, plumped my lips. It is however the least sticky glosses I have ever used (and I have used... well, a lot). I have the "rio rose" colour and it is perfect on me. It is shiny without having too much shimmer or glitter. I love that the product is relatively odorless and completely flavorless. I have already bought another tube for my mom who never wears gloss because she hates the sticky feel.
Overall this is a great gloss, but if it is plumping you are going for, try something else.

I don't think I would ever pay this much for a hand cream, but I got this to try and I ended up liking it. Not enough to warrant buying it again, but it is a pretty good product.
It was not greasy and absorbed quite well without a greasy or sticky residue and it left my hands and nails feeling moisturized. I wash my hands a lot and don't always take the time to dry them properly so they do get pretty dry and my cuticles take a beating. This moisturizer did the job and did not take a long time to "go away" I could put it on and get back to what I was doing without waiting for my hands to feel normal again.

As just a shower cleanser this product is okay, but as an exfoliater it is not so great. I found that it didn't really do that great of a job and had an odd smell... sort of like tea but in a bad way, hard to explain.
Considering how great it sounds "combines Honey Beads with 100% Plant Exfoliants derived from Peach and Orange to smooth away the appearance of skin flakiness" II was quite disappointed in the product and would not bother buying again.

I was given this moisturizer to try and review. I found to be kind of an average hand cream considering what it claims to do.. "Repairing, Nourishing and Protecting with Honey, Precious Oils and Vitamin E" I like that it is non greasy and that it is made from natural ingredients, but I did not find it to be as moisturizing as it could have been and I thought it would have smelled better, since it touted honey and almond oil.
All in all it is an okay product and does do an okay job, but it is not fantastic.

I got this to review from a magazine and have found that I really like it. At first I hated the smell. It has a typical "unscented" scent, but it works really well. It removes make up quite well and leaves your skin feeling really clean and almost tingly. I also like that it is not too drying and does not leave your face really tight feeling. -

I got this product to review through the review club (thanks chick advisor!) and I really like it.
It makes your skin amazingly smooth and really works on dry skin too. It absorbs quite well for a body butter and is not sticky or overly greasy. I find that with this product I can even skip a few days because I find that the softness stays since it really is moisturizing.
At first I was not really into the scent, but I have found that is has grown on me the more that I have used it. i will defiantly buy the body shop body butter again, but I will pick a different scent (like wild cherry!)

I was really excited when I got this mascara ( I usually don't pay more than about $15 for a tube) and thought it would be fun to try an more expensive one. I figured if the quality is there it would be worth the extra money.
I was let down... I found that it dried too fast and made my lashes all stick together. It looked like I has six fat gloopy eyelashes (sexy!) On top of that it flaked really quickly and made a mess under my eyes. I'm hoping that I got an old tube or something, because I have heard so many great things about Benefit products, but this kind of makes me want to avoid them... or at least their mascara.

This eye make up remover was not my first choice but at the time I bought it I was seriously low and needed something.
I found that this product had no problems with eyeliners and eye shadow, but it did not do a very good job with mascara. I do not use waterproof mascara and this product had a hard time getting it all off. I don't even want to think about using it on waterproof makeup... Overall it is okay, but it does not remove it all. If I am paying for it to do a certain job I'd like it to do it right.

I received this from a magazine to review .
I love it! First off the scent is amazing, a sweet, almost orange like scent that perks you up and makes you happy. Second it moisturizes really well. It does go on a little greasy at first, but once it absorbs a bit more it is perfect. I like to use it at night before bed, then the slight oiliness is not a big deal. I liked it so much I used it as a body cream and ended up being itchy all over, so it may not be so great for those with sensitive skin, but it was fabulous on my hands.
