I really like this mascara, more than I thought I would. I was disappointed by the look of the brush at first, but it really is pretty good. Its very similar to Lancome Definicils, my lashes are really long, defined, not clumpy, and dont smudge. The smell really isnt all that bad. In all, I really like this mascara, and I will definitely buy it again.

I have to say, the volume is far better than most of the volumizing masacaras I have tried, Im not so sure about the curl part though, I didn't notice a difference in curl. The brush is pretty time consuming, you have to make sure to spin it around as you're applying, which is a pain, and takes longer, but if you don't do it, the effect is not as good. It did not seem to get enough mascara on the tips of my lashes, no matter what I tried. So they had great volume, but ended up looking kind of stubby at the end, I prefer more length and definition at the tips. Overall, its really a good mascara, if you want volume. Not as great as they claim though.

I love this stuff! The warming sensation feels so good! It can sting a little bit if you rub too hard though. I only use it when Im not going anywhere right away, it makes my face a little red for a while afterward. It makes your skin feel like absolute silk! No dead skin or dry patches. Definitely worth the $!

This stuff makes your skin feel amazingly soft. I use it as a primer and my makeup goes on smooth, and stays on all day. However, if I use my fingers to apply foundation or concealer, I notice this peels off a bit when rubbed. I have large pores and redness and I don't notice the "immediate" difference in either after I apply. I don't use this product every day because its so expensive, so I don't know how it would impact my skin if I used it regularly. I think its pretty much the same as the original Idealist, which is also really great. I don't if I would say its a Miracle In A Bottle, but its an excellent product if you can afford it.

I really like how creamy and smooth this is, it blends so easily. I also love that its firming and contains vitamins and ingredients to improve the skin around my eyes. I do have really dark circles under my eyes, and while this does a pretty great job at covering them, I still notice them (but I don't know that there is a concealer out there that I wouldnt notice them at all.) It also settles into fine lines under the eyes pretty quickly after I apply it. Overall, for the price I think its one of the better concealers I have tried, but I think Ill keep searching for that magic one to handle under-eye circles.

I was skeptical of this, as I was not a fan of this type of rubber wand used on other mascaras, but I had to try it and was pleasantly surprised. It makes my lashes really long and defined, cleanly without clumps. Its not a super dramatic effect so I love it for the day and at work. Im a mascara junkie, always searching for the next best one, and I rarely buy the same one twice, however I have purchased this one several times, and that says a lot.

This product did whiten my teeth noticeably (maybe 2 shades), but I dont know that I would buy it again. I have whitened my teeth at home using professional gels from the dentist for years, and I have never experienced such extreme tooth sensitivity as I did with these strips. I had experienced some minor gum discomfort before, but these really hurt my teeth. They were so sensitive to air I could barely breathe at night. I also found they tend to slide off the teeth, especially the bottom, and it was hard to keep them in place, and for the price, it would be nice if you only had to remember to do it once a day. All in all, they work alright, but I wouldnt say they work well enough to go through the hassle and discomfort again.

Its true this stuff covers everything,...because its like stage make-up! No matter what I'm trying to cover up I don't like looking like a cake face. It definitely made my face too shiny and plastic looking. I think it takes too long to apply with all the buffing with the tiny brushes and it irritated my face, turning it all red and blotchy. If your main concern is heavy coverage, then this will do the job. If you don't like shimmery, shiny, totally obvious foundation-face, I would not recommend this product.

I'm on the constant quest for the perfect mascara, and was sure this was going to be THE ONE, unfortunately, its not. I returned it 3 days later. The big brush is kinda awkward, but not impossible. It does truly make your lashes really long, its the tiny fibers that attach to the end of your lashes, but they also end up attaching weirdly, like in the middle of your lash going sideways, or at the tip pointing strait down. It kind of creates a spidery, clumpy look, like you slept with it on. It also smudged black all over my brow bone and flaked a on my face. The length is great, it just needs to be more clean looking on the lash to be worth all the hype, and money. For $23 I need something that makes my lashes PERFECTLY amazing, and this is not it.
