This is one of the best brow powders I've ever used and my current favorite. I don't think I've even made a dent in it and I've been using it for a few months. The formula is dry, yet creamy and glides on smooth without gaps or uneven color. Finish off with Anastasia's brow gel and you are literally set!

This product is wonderful. I have it in constant supply. I rely on it to cleanse, help keep my feet soft, deodorize, and provide a cooling sensation to my often tired feet. I like that it slightly foams up a little bit and so I feel so clean! Smells wonderful. My one complaint, the container is too small!

This might be my least favorite Stila product ever. The pen dries out quickly and is hard to apply to the lip. I also felt like it had a drying effect on my lips. The colors are cute, but are pointless in this pen. My pen was dry after only a few uses. I wouldn't get this again.

I love drinking these drops in a bottle of water on a daily basis. They are sugar, calorie, and caffeine free and are the equivalent to drinking 30 cups of green tea in a serving. Excellent antioxidant benefits and all the flavors taste great. One bottle actually lasts me a little over 6 weeks drinking 2X daily. EDIT-- I meant to say 15 cups of green tea per serving!

I have color treated hair so maybe this wasn't the best choice for me when I used it... I felt like my hair got drier! In my opinion, it's just an okay cleanser and I could get the same result for half the cost with a drug-store brand. I love most Paul Mitchell products and I was surprised I wasn't wowed by it, but then again-- I don't think I have the right hair type. Meh.

This cleanser is the finest cream cleanser I have ever used. It smells strongly of plant extracts so if you have a sensitive nose, I don't know if you will care for it. The scent though is so pleasant and soothing and I feel clean from the cleanser after rinsing. Gentle enough for eyes and it's dissolving some of my blackheads. For the quality, the price is right. Great packaging, one pump is one use, perfectly measured. Way to go Liz!

This cream has done everything it is supposed to do. It's a great free-radical hydrator and a superb moisturizer. It's great for more mature or dryer skin conditions. I've become a total Liz Earle fanatic lately and I wear this over the Superskin Concentrate at night and can't say enough good things about it. If I didn't have to try other products, I would choose this forever... but since I'm a beauty blogger I have to often use others. But this is amazing.

Honestly, one of the BEST things I've ever done for my skin was to start using this at night last week. I was worried about all of the oils, but I swear I have not gotten one new pimple in the last week. It makes my moisturizer more effective and I feel so hydrated and my skin looks supple and glowy again. It smells like plant extracts and reminds me of the finest spa. Worth it's weight in gold. This is now one of my beauty must-haves. If your skin is lacking vibrance, try it!

I've had several of these glosses recently and they won't stay put! While not sticky, it's hard to get the color to stay on unless you completely line your lips first. To me, I like gloss I can throw on without all that fuss. The taste is a little overwhelming too. Passion fruit isn't my personal favorite but there's something for everyone!

I'm pretty picky when it comes to shampoo and conditioner and I can almost never finish a bottle before I run out and buy a new one. Sound familiar? I fall in love with one and then I'm turned on by the newest and prettiest packaging, so I get more! I'm surprised my husband doesn't stage an intervention because of the amount of beauty products and shampoo that are in this house. But anyway! Ive had the chance to try all three of L'Oreal's Vive Pro Nutri Gloss products There's a shampoo, conditioner, and conditioning treatment. Here's what I think: Right off the bat, I have to say the pink packaging would make me b-line right towards it. Pink is definitely the way to most girls' hearts. That was absolutely brilliant on L'Oreal's part. The shampoo has a pearlescent look to it which makes me a sucker every time. For some reason, I've convinced myself that when a shampoo looks more creamy and shiny versus clear, my hair is being treated better. Call me silly. And the products are pink! Here's where I get really excited-- the scent reminds me of candy, cotton candy to be exact. It's not an overpowering scent as not to clash with your fragrance wardrobe. It's rather soft, clean, and sweet. So right there, I'm totally game for it. Prior to using the shampoo for the first time, I had just colored my hair at home. So I was impressed at how my hair didn't feel quite as much like a wet cotton ball as much as it usually does. The conditioner did a great job of hydrating and softening my freshly-colored locks but I wanted to take it a step further. I opted to also use the treatment since I had just colored my hair and haven't done a treatment in a little over a week. I applied it and combed it through with a wide-tooth comb and left it in for a few minutes. Long enough to wipe down my shower walls and wash my face. Why didn't I think of that before? By using the combination of these products, I felt my hair was clean, shiny, and hydrated. That's pretty much the goal of shampoo and conditioner, right? I think often as consumers we expect a lot out of products and that's our right as we're spending our hard earned cashola on them. Sometimes though, I have to remind myself that it's a product. It's not going to change my car's oil and give it a free car wash as a bonus. For a drugstore brand, I would totally consider this as an option. It's fairly priced and there's enough shampoo and conditioner in there to really last. At least until you want to change! I'm so busted!
