This mascara works too well – to the point that I hated using it. It does NOT come off. In order to take it off completely every night I would have to scrub my eyes raw, so I usually just left it on, which is very uncomfortable. I ended up adding a bit of baby oil and later, makeup remover, to it to try and thin it out, but that didn't work. -

I was given this makeup remover lotion as a gift and did not like it at all. I found it very ineffective to remove my makeup, especially mascara. It might have been easier to use with a cloth or cotton ball, but rubbing it into my eyes with just my fingers felt very weird, as it is a lotion, not an oil like I'm used to. -
The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil
This oil works well enough, but at $20 for a 20 mL bottle, I think it is a huge rip off. I can get a much larger bottle for a MUCH cheaper price. Furthermore, the bottle says it is only 15% tea tree oil and does not provide any other ingredients. I... +
This oil works well enough, but at $20 for a 20 mL bottle, I think it is a huge rip off. I can get a much larger bottle for a MUCH cheaper price. Furthermore, the bottle says it is only 15% tea tree oil and does not provide any other ingredients. I thought I was buying a bottle of tea tree oil, so what is the other 85% in there? While the product works just as well as any other tea tree oil, I will not be buying this one again. -

This is now the only BB cream I use! I find it very smooth and not too cakey, and it really smooths out my skin's appearance. They only have three colours to match skin tones, but I find that the lightest one blends very well with my skin colour. The only thing that would make it better is SPF. I use it every day! -

I was given this cream as a gift, so I can't say too much for price, but I found it works really well! I usually have problems with creams (night creams especially) because they are too oily or heavy for my face. This one, however, is able to be dry enough for my face while still remaining smooth. I never feel that it is caked on my face before I go to bed! And in the morning, my face feels nice and smooth! -

I received this product as an extra to a product review giveaway and am not overly fond of it. It smells great, but that's about where my positive review ends. The serum itself is slightly shimmery, which I found just made my face look and feel oily. I also was not able to use it in the mornings underneath my makeup, because it did not mix well with my foundation, causing it to rub off easily. Overall, I feel that Vichy's products are way overpriced for the quality they provide. -
Avon Anew Reversalist Renewal Foaming Cleanser

I received this face wash as a gift, and I have to say, I do not love it. While I appreciate its cleansing power in washing the oils from my face, it seems to strip away them all, leaving me with that unappealing "squeaky" feeling. Furthermore, it is difficult to wash off. I quite like the smell and texture, but for the above reasons, I do not think I would ever purchase this face wash of my own accord. -

I really liked this cream a lot. I used it usually in the morning under my makeup, and it worked really well with my foundation. I think the best part about it is that it smells so great! I really didn't need to use very much of it to cover my face, and it didn't make me feel oily after washing my face. I would love another jar of this cream! -

I received a small sample jar of this as a gift and hadn't started using it until about two weeks ago. I'm so glad I dug it out! There are a few reasons why I love it. First of all, it does not feel oily on my skin, a problem I find with many lotions. Secondly, it goes on very smoothly, and when I put my makeup on afterwards it feels like it blends perfectly. Finally, I love the SPF in it. I have very very fair skin so using snscreen (especially in the summer) is a MUST. My normal makeup doesn't include SPF, and I don't really want to slather sunscreen on my face all the time just to go outside. This is a wonderful alternative. I normally don't buy morning creams, but in this case I might have to buy another jar! -

I received this item in the mail free from ChickAdvisor (thanks ChickAdvisor!) and was excited to start using it! The jar is beautiful (I love the mirror on top – nice touch!) and it smells fantastic. Unfortunately however, it hasn't been the best for my skin. My usual night cream dries out my skin a bit more while I sleep, and comparatively, this cream feels very oily and makes me feel greasy when I wake up. I have even been breaking out in certain spots on my face more than normal. Perhaps this cream works well for people with drier skin than mine, but for someone with fairly oily skin it is just a little too much! -
