I loved the idea - easy to use shampoo and conditioner in one bottle. It smelled great, felt great and is in line with my need for natural, cruelty free ingredients. However, I never felt like my hair was clean. I don't wash my hair every day, but had to once I started to use this product as my hair felt oily even just a few days later. I have pretty healthy, normal hair so maybe this would be good for those with frizz, color treatments or dry hair.

I found the stick to be a convenient way to quickly and cleanly get your sunscreen on, particularly in more awkward places like the back of your neck or between your shoulder blades. It is a stick though so be prepared for some streaking and a little bit of difficulty smoothing it over your skin.

The scrub was my favorite product out of this box. It felt so good going on and the earthy smell just lifts you up into the universe and starts your day off right. The detox wipes were perfect for removing makeup or a quick refresh/restart during the day. I found the smell of the Kale Detox to be too off-putting however, and only used it twice. All in all I recommend this as a great way to get acquainted with the Pacifica line of products.

I'm pleasantly surprised and pleased to announce that this product absolutely works and I've added it to my beauty regime. As soon as I felt something trying to poke through my skin, I swiped one of these tiny pads across the spot and voila! It was gone within HOURS. What a lifesaver and a quick fix solution! Goes on great before moisturizer and does not dry out your skin. The only drawback is that the pads are very thin and difficult to peel away from each other and you might inadvertently take off more than one. This can be avoided with a little patience and good eyes.

I'm not a fan of perfume. I am a fan of sweet smelling scents that hit your nose gently and disappear before you can think, "what is that smell?". This is one of those fragrances that just reminds you of a summer day in a Mediterranean city without overpowering it with sneezes and watery eyes. Perfect for Spring afternoons or cold winter days when you want to fantasize about warmer climes.

Full disclosure: I suck at putting on eyeliner. More importantly, I legitimately suck at using liquid liner to make those amazing cat eyes on upper lids. Nope. Can't do it. While I still suck using this Youngblood liquid liner pen, all hope is not lost. It's the first pen I've used that didn't skip, didn't drag, didn't hurt. Instead it left soft, velvety lines on my eyes, wherever I attempted to put it. Even if I can't do a perfect cat eye. I think with a bit of practice and maybe a quick stop at a makeup counter, I can learn and use this (cruelty free) product from now on!

My skin hates makeup. It just breaks out instantly whenever anything goes on it. Therefore I was even more hesitant to try this cream cheek tint. I gave in though as I love the 100% Pure line of natural and cruelty free products and the color (peach glow) was perfect for my olive skin tone. Wow, I love this stuff. While it felt a little like putting lipstick on my face, I learned that dotting it and then using my fingers to rub in, was better than using a brush or swiping the stick across my face. The result was a healthy glow and no sticky residue on my face. I didn't feel heavy or that I was wearing makeup and the best part - my skin didn't react. Will definitely buy and again as it's a part of my normal make up routine.

Hang Ten Classic Face Natural Sunscreen Lotion 30 SPF
No Streaking, Organic Ingredients, Easy to Use, No Chemicals
This stuff is FANTASTIC. It has everything we should want and need in a sunscreen. It's very fluid so it's easy to put on and not streaky like some other viscous sunblock. It also doesn't leave behind that awful white residue and isn't sticky or smelly. It's even thinner than my moisturizer and has a more gel-cream consistency. A little bit goes a long way. The mostly-organic ingredients and cruelty free bunny label, means this is good for you and good for the environment. It's also nasty oxybenzone and paraben free. So protect your skin from cancer, without worrying about adding more cancer to it. Highly recommend.

I've used other brush/dryer combinations before, but never one that does the spinning for you. I was hoping this would be the solution to cutting down the drying and styling time on my almost waist length hair. The tool comes with two brushes in different sizes and a wand. There were no directions so with a little bit of a cockedeyed expression, I finally figured out how to attach the brush to the wand. There is no locking mechanism so the brush does pop out quite easily during use. In order to get the brush to spin, you have to twist and hold the spin dial in place, while using it on very small sections of hair. Again, there is no locking mechanism for this either, so you do have to hold it at a very awkward position in order to keep the brushes spinning. Since you can only do small sections of hair at a time, as the brush will click and cease spinning if you try larger portions or on wet hair, it does take a while to get through your whole head and can cause cramping in the hand holding the dial. This also did not want to work at all on my hair while it was wet. The brush would make a clicking noise before popping out of the wand. I think perhaps this is a design flaw on two folds – one, the device needs a locking mechanism and two, the device needs a stronger spinny motor. I did try it again on my hair the next day when it was dried already and it did take some of the frizz out, but it still would only do tiny sections at a time before locking up and clicking. Too much effort, unfortunately, but I can perhaps recommend it for short hair. TL/DR: Won't work on wet, long hair. Might work on shorter hair purely for styling.
