I will start with the best of the two shades. Across the Universe is gorgeous. It's a navy blue jelly with small glitter and large hexagon glitter. Three coats is best for maximum sparkle. I have never seen a shade like it, so it is worth the $18. I got 4 days of no chip wear, which is good. Excellent quality, the shape of the handle gives good control of the brush. Looks like a cross between the ocean at night and deep space. Bad Romance is a black jelly with fuchsia glitter both small and large. Brush quality and wear were the same as Across the Universe. I wanted to like it more than I did, I felt it didn't have enough glitter- a few of my nails had hardly any. If you have more patience/application skill than I, it would turn out better.

Lip Glass looks amazing. Feels like glue on my mouth. I prefer a brand I may have to reapply a bit more often and avoid the hair in lipgloss look.

I have the nude shade. It goes on easily and on my light olive skin tone, shows up as a really lovely pulpy rosy color. It looks like you have been kissed-a lot. I recommend applying lip balm, applying the rest of your makeup, than wiping off the balm and wearing these stains. The price is nice as well.

One coat gives a nice berry sheen. See through but definitely there, You can build the color until it's a deep blackberry, which is slightly to dramatic for my light medium complexion, but would be very flattering on someone with a deeper skin tone. As everyone has said, very versatile, It isn't the longest lasting, but it's so moisturizing I enjoy applying it.

The color is fantastic. A hint of fine golden glimmer, with a lovely coppery nude finish. I have light olive skin and it brightens my face in a subtle way. Smells like cocoa powder, but not flavored. Not the longest lasting, but I don't expect that in a gloss. Hydrates nicely, and is non-sticky, a huge plus. Worth it as little treat for yourself.

I was skeptical when I read the ad, and got a sample size in a gift with purchase. I was hooked. The price is a little high, but I plan around it. I have oil in the T zone, complicated by dry patches on top of the oil. This fixed it, and gently to boot. My skin is too sensitive for most AHA based products and this worked wonders. My skin is even toned with no big oil splotches or dryness.

I love the smell, slightly herbal and then the citrus tang over it. It's not overpoweringly scented, I could wear perfume afterward without it interfering. Best of all, it keeps my skin soft for hours longer than anything else I have ever used. I find that if I exfoliate well in the shower beforehand and then apply this, I am soft for close to 24 hours. Well worth the money.

I really don't like the powdery soft texture. It moisturized my skin decently, and stayed soft for a reasonable amount of time, but I can't get past the mental link of powder=dry, which is not what I am looking for in a skin cream. I prefer a slightly silkier finish. Still a decent product though.

I loathe this mascara. I bought it after seeing it constantly show up in Allure's best of beauty list. It has every quality I dislike. It clumps and smudges. Price wise it is great, but Maybelline's Volume Express works much better, and curiously I do not have any of the same problems.

It made my skin burn after an hour or so. It felt dry, and really made the few lines I have around my eyes stand out. After two hours I gave up and washed my face. Perhaps I am lazy, but it was too labor intensive and messy (powder everywhere) for me to be interested in purchasing this product. I am glad I received this as a gift.
