I am not at all impressed with this product. It has a chalky, powdery consistency and lacks any shimmer or sheen. My face looked pale and cakey after I applied. Definitely a no.

Though I like the way this smells, the scent seems to fade rather quickly and I am constantly reapplying. Also when I compare this with other VS perfumes like "Very Sexy" and "Pink" I don't think this perfume lives up. While the fragrance is indeed sophisticated, it also is just a bit old lady.

I couldn't wait to try my brand new shadow in a lovely beachy golden color. I got home, put it on and...I could barely see it. I applied layer after layer only to find the consistency of this shadow is chalky and dry. It's best used with a wet brush in order to make some of the pigment stick.

I have had my fair share of bad experiences with lip stain. I usually end up with the "kindergartener after a cup of koolaid" look and have struggled to find a natural looking, everyday stain. This is it. The colors are natural and don't look one bit little girlish. I especially love the marker like application. It's virtually fool proof, unlike other rollerball applicators i've used. The stain is extremely long lasting and I love layering lip balm over it for a soft semi-matte look.

This gloss goes on completely smooth and isn't sticky like the VS Beauty Rush glosses can be. There is a wide selection of different colors and most of them are natural colors and flatter various skin tones. Though this gloss isn't as hydrating as some, it doesn't dry out lips either.

I love this for two reasons. First of all, it dries amazingly fast! Literally, my nails are dry in a matter of a few minutes. Secondly, this does exactly what it says, it doubles the life of normal nail polish. My normal polish chips in just a few days. When I use Sally Hansen Double Life my polish lasts for at least a week. A great and inexpensive buy.

I bought this for 75% off. I can understand why it wasn't selling at the regular price. I didn't notice much of a difference in the length or volume of my lashes after using this. Over application wasn't an issue for me. In fact, I could barely get it to coat my lashes at all. The only reason I still use it is for the conditioning properties.

Hmmm. I bought this gloss in "rich pink". The shade is a lovely rose, but is anything but rich or highly pigmented. It actually turned out to be more of a nude. I still love it, and the color is my absolute favorite to balance out a smokey eyed look, but perhaps "color rich" isn't an appropriate name. I also love the consistency of the gloss. It's smooth without any hint of stickiness.

The directions say "reapply as needed". Apparently that means every hour...? I was in the sun for about three hours without exposure to water or chlorine. Despite applying a generous amount of this sunscreen, my shoulders and back still ended up quite toasted. If this is "sweat proof, waterproof ect." as it says it is, I'm not sure how I managed to get burned in just three hours... I will not be repurchasing.

This is much worse than a drugstore lipstick. The color looks great in the tube, but horrendous on lips. Also, prepare yourself for chapped, crackly lips because this lipstick is not moisturizing in the least. The unsophisticated shimmer brings out the fine lines and wrinkles around your mouth. Please don't buy this.
