Yes! I agree with the 2 previous reviewers. These brushes don't retain enough of the product or liquid to achieve what you're going for. I'm really disappointed in this given how much I love Urban Decay's other products. This one just makes me sad. I don't recommend this product unfortunately.

I loved this so much, that I went through 2 tubes before breaking down and testing another mascara for my simple "everyday" lashes. Most of my days don't call for all-out lashes and I found this to be great for that. Great definition and I don't recall ever having a problem with the formula running, flaking, or smudging.

This was a great mascara for me. I loved how long it made my lashes, but I did find that it flaked every now and then. It's a little on the pricier side but I'm willing to pay more for a mascara that really performs. I would totally get this again.

Crabtree & Evelyn Aromatherapy Distillations Relaxing - Soothing Body Lotion
A triple threat to dry skin!
I have to tell you something. My home is loaded with body lotions, body butters, and dry oils right now. I have a ton of them to choose from and that never stops me from trying more. It's an illness-- I tell you! We can never have enough good stuff. Which brings me to tell you about the new Distillations Soothing Body Lotion from Crabtree & Evelyn. This lavender and rosewood essential oil laden wonder hydrated my dry arms and left behind a delicious scent. I thought I smelled limes, and I love limes! But really, it's an essential oil blend of lavender and rosewood, tonka, chamomile, vanilla and violet leaf. Perhaps it's just the combination of all of those scents together that created a lime-like scent. Then again, the Hubby told me he didn't smell limes at all. Okay, I'll stop! Other reasons I love this stuff: there's no parabens, mineral oil, synthetic fragrance, colorants, propylene glycol, sodium lauryl or laureth, sulfates. I also love argan oil-- one of the key ingredients, and when it's with olive oil and shea butter like in the Distillations, that's a triple threat to dry skin. I think this would make a great gift for anyone as the packaging is more grown up than your standard Bath & Body Works fare. I did find this to be relaxing and I thought it might even make a nice massage lotion. Give it a try, let me know what you think!

I want to be nice to these wipes, but I just can't. First, they burned my skin and felt tight and dry after using! I was talking to a friend and she complained of the same thing so I know I'm not losing my mind. I thought it may be just me but it wasn't. I like almost everything in the Vit. E line so this was really surprising to me to dislike them. I paid $14 which I thought was a little high. I'm happier with a store brand that I pay $3 for. I think there are better options than these on the market.

I use this at night and it really takes inflammation and redness down! It is pricier than most spot treatments, but in my opinion, worth every cent. You're not using a whole bottle... just a dab will do ya! Since it's sulfur based it doesn't smell great at first but you won't notice it after 5 minutes. Small price to pay for a smaller pimple! It will take down my massive ones very quickly, 1-2 nights. Most of them are barely noticeable by morning though! This is in my skincare arsenal at all times. I keep trying others, but this is the one I go back to.

This is the best eye primer I've ever used. It makes my shadow stay put all day and the pigment payoff is phenomenal. The only reason it's not getting a 10 is for the packaging. I think the little bottle is cute, but not very practical as I feel it wastes the product at the very end! I do recommend this to everyone though!

This was definitely a fun product to use. I agree with Kristin! I did find that it brought a glow to my face and the Hubby loved it too. I felt that my face was a little tight after rinsing this off though. It's not my favorite peel, but it's good for people whose skin cannot handle the more abrasive peels on the market.

I was so disappointed in this product! It burned my eyes, didn't remove my eye makeup and dried out the skin under my eyes. It took a lot of the liquid to even get it to budge. I don't care for this formula at all. I hope it's been improved since I tried it. I've had better luck with drugstore brands than this one.

This case has kept my beloved collection safe for a few years now. While it's heavy, it's roomy and fits a lot. I've seen other pro cases cost more than double what I paid for this and I think this one is comparable if not better. It's very durable, matte black, and houses a ton of product.
