I really love the way this balm makes my lips feel. It give just the right amount of hydration without feeling sticky or greasy. I also really enjoy the fact that it comes in a variety of tints. I currently own the clear (#05 Quenched), peach (#30 Peach Kiss) and cherry (#15 Cherry Me). I would like to get some of the additional tints, but my local drug store always seems to be out when I go. It took me FOREVER to find the clear! I have used them on and off for several months now. I have to say, when used consistently for about two weeks, you should be able to tell a fairly significant difference in the texture and feel of your lips. Even the appearance of mine have improved vastly. The colors aren't harsh at all, with the cherry giving ever the slightest sheen of red, almost like having eaten a cherry Popsicle or sucker, and the peach has a lovely, slightly frosted look to it. All three are totally sheer. I look forward to giving the other colors a try. Bravo to Maybelline for making my new favorite lip balm! Love it!

I tend to have combination skin that can't seem to make up its mind. My skin actually seems to change based on the products that I use. I have used this particular face wash for over a year. I love the creamy feeling. The smell isn't terrible either. I will say that my skin feels a bit tight after use of this product. When I have a little more makeup on, I was twice with it to ensure that it has all be removed. Some of the other little negatives include the burning sensation if you happen to get it in your nose! OUCH! I will say this, I had my routine down. My skin was clear using this wash, exfoliating two to three times weekly, and using a moisturizer morning and night. For some reason, I decided to change up my routine a bit. I regret it. I used a different wash, which broke me out and totally changed the texture and feel of my skin. I can't even wear makeup the same way. Needless to say, I am back with my old staple! What took about two weeks to mess up will likely take a month or more to repair, but I will never falter from this face wash again! Very reasonably priced and does the job well! I would recommend this for people with combination to oily skin or people prone to breakouts on their chin and forehead. Great product!

I used this product along with the shampoo of the same kind. The smell is lovely. While wet, my think, coarse, naturally curly and VERY damaged hair did feel very hydrated. It was super easy to comb through. Unfortunately, upon drying, I couldn't really tell much of a difference. My hair was really puffy after blow drying, more so than usual. It took a lot of extra effort on my part to make my hair look presentable. I had to use a silicon based serum to try to smooth things down, and even that didn't fix the problem completely. I will likely use this until the bottle is gone, simply due to the fact that I don't want to waste it, but I will be looking for a deep conditioner to add to my routine until I get through it all. I would recommend this to women with slightly less damaged hair, or women with thinner hair. This product definitely did not weigh me down, so it may work wonderfully if you have hair a bit on the thin side.

I used this shampoo hoping it would help my dry, damaged hair come back to life. It didn't do too much for me. I definitely didn't like the way my hair felt after rinsing out the shampoo. I could barely get a comb through it to put my conditioner in! Once the matching conditioner was applied, it was ok. I wasn't too impressed. I have longer, very thick naturally curly hair that is color treated every 2-3 months and washed and conditioned one to two times per week. Not really the best shampoo for me.

This product claims that "100% of users felt their skin looked firmer, smoother, and more radiant instantly; 100% felt skin looked brighter instantly, 89% saw less fine lines instantly, and 96% felt skin was more moisturized after two weeks." I don't agree with most of that. I purchased this product in hopes of fading a couple of dark spots that have appeared on my skin recently. I am 24 years old with a family history of malasma (my mother has it). In all fairness to the product, it has not been 4 weeks, so I guess I shouldn't expect to see any difference in these spots yet, but I haven't really noticed anything at all. My skin is the same as it has always been. I haven't noticed a brighter complexion, the spots are still there, and without my regular moisturizer, my skin would be dry and tight. I will give the product the additional two weeks to show me some results, but I don't expect much.

I have used this in the past. It is actually a decent conditioner! I have very dry, thick, naturally curly hair that is color treated every couple of months or so. It is hard to find a conditioner that really moisturizes my hair, but this one does an okay job. I would say that it would be great for people who don't have as heavily damaged hair as mine. I find that my hair dries out rather quickly (maybe a day or so after washing) with this conditioner. I have to use a deep conditioner along with it to prevent that from happening. All in all, if you are in a pinch and need something super cheap that will get the job done, this is the conditioner for you!

I like to switch up my shampoo and conditioner every now and then. This one is pretty good! I like the light coconut scent, but I have found that it doesn't last very long, although that could have to do with the fact that I have very coarse hair that requires several products to style. Overall, this is a nice shampoo. It is moderately moisturizing and lathers nicely as well. It is relatively gentle on my hair and scalp. The price is incredibly affordable and it is easy to find as well. I would use this again.

I like the smell of this body wash, but it doesn't last after getting out of the shower. Also, it is supposed to be "a touch of shimmer", but there really is none, at least not on my skin. The wash itself shimmers a tiny bit before you lather it up. When you squeeze it out of the bottle, it is a silvery gray color, almost opalescent looking. Once you lather, though, there is no sparkle or shimmer to be found. It feels good on my skin. I actually like to shave with it. I get a very close shave and my legs stay moist. I would say this is a mediocre body wash. Not terrible, but certainly not the best one out there either.

I really like this lotion! It enhances my tan and the price is on point! Unfortunately, I can't seem to find this anywhere anymore! I think Jergens has replaced this with their line of gradual tanners... which I am not too thrilled with. The only real draw backs to this lotion are the scent and the messiness. It has a strange smell to it. Not really perfumey, but also not floral at all. It is just a strange smell that I can't identify. Also, you want to make sure to let it dry all the way before you put your clothes on, especially if you are wearing something white or black, because it will get all over your clothes! All in all, it makes my skin look great in the summer time!

I love Dove brand bar soaps! They are always very gentle on my sensitive skin! This one has a great light rose scent that I love! It doesn't over dry my skin and I still feel clean and fresh! Great product! I would highly recommend!
