The idea of having the same skin healthy ingredients found in a face cream in a body cream is a wonderful idea. My skin has been very soft since using this lotion and that softness lasts all day. The lotion is easily absorbed into the skin. I think that aspect about the lotion I don't like is the smell. It is a little "old" for me at 31. It smells like some thing that would have come out 20 years ago, or for some one twice my age. I wish that Olay would get together with a Bath and Body Works or a Body Shop and but their great scents with this great skin care idea.

When first looking at this product it looked like mascara for your hair. It is clear, but I thought it leaves no residue at all! I was shocked! It is invisible on your roots, yet has a visual effect on smoothing your hair. I have dark brown super straight hair and this gave no greasy roots, no major scent, and no wasteful excess product dispensed! The right amount for your whole scalp hair line can be found in a single application of this tube. Also, I wash my hair every other day and this lasted from the first application to the next day. A single tube will go far. I like to wear my hair in a simple slicked back pony tail and this product was PERFECT for the part in my hair while the standard JF frizz product I use for the ends of my hair.

I just bought this with a coupon from Ulta. It was the best $ I have ever spent on a nail product!!!! I am busy, you are busy, we are all busy!!! Why wait for nail polish to dry?!?! I stopped doing my nails because of the time crunch... but you don't have to give up nice looking nails any more! It gives your nails such a glassy look, works really well as a top coat, and the best part is... it makes a base coat and 2 coats of polish dry in less than 5 minutes!!! A MUST HAVE in my book!

This product was horrible because 1) it was way too thin and 2) it smelled bad. I tried to put this on my eye area but it was too runny (even when only a drop of the product was applied!) This texture might be good for some people, but I prefer a thicker consistency in my eye products so that they never drip into my eyes. Especially in Winter, when I need some thing for my dry skin this did not fit the bill. The smell was also odd, and I just could not keep it on my face. This is some thing very personal though, so some might like it. To me, it smelled like rotten herbs that were left in the fridge drawer too long. I would save your money and try another eye cream!

Cosmedicine Optimologist Eye Cream With Light Diffusers
Thick and rich, but no light diffusing here!
There is a major PRO to this product: It is very, very thick and has been wonderful for the below freezing days of Winter. My skin was never dry when using this product, it felt very soft, absorbed easily, and made my small wrinkles look less noticeable. But there is a major CON to this product, and why I had to take 4 stars away: The Light diffusers were non-existent and I never saw them. There was no reduction in under eye circles at all. This product claims to "camouflage the look of dark circles and fatigue" but did nothing to do that at all.

I could not keep this product long enough on my face to see any effects. I had to wash it twice to get the smell to go away. It smelled rotten and putrid, and was not some thing that I wanted on my face or hands.

This is not a product that I typically use with straight, long hair. But I got a new hair cut a few weeks ago with some longer layers framing my face... yet, I did not know how to keep them out of my eyes or sleeked back when I was wearing a simple pony tail... here enters Sebastian Professional Microweb Fiber. This is an odd product, and web certainly describes it as it does seem to form webs of product in between your fingers, but this really helped in getting a more even distribution of product on my hair. I was able to keep those long layers out of my face quite well with this product, but what I noticed, and this makes the product great, is that the shine in my hair was amplified where I used it! Many waxes, or other texturizing agents just cut out the shine and make your hair stiff, but this Sebastian Professional Microweb Fiber did not do that at all!

When I first got this product I was not sure exactly how to use it, as I had not used a mouse like formula since my last perm in the 80s, so I watched the online how-to video from the Sebastian website. This was a helpful tool, and I learned that it was also a heat protecting cream as well as a leave in conditioning product as well as a styling tool! This is where I think the real beauty in this product lies! I was used to crunchy, thick, chemically smelling mouse... but this was an awesome smelling product that left my hair very, very soft! I used it in my towel dried hair to assist with a more every day style than what was shown in the online video... a simple blowdry with a round brush. I have poker straight hair and this product really helped to keep the curl from round brushing my hair... which yes, is normally quite a feat. My hair was left very, very soft and even in the colder, drier air, wearing a sweater and wool coat my hair had no static in it! This is certainly a multiuse product, and Sebastian has managed to update a product that I with straight hair old associated with perms, to a product I can see myself using with my 21st century style!

These are a great price first of all. Secondly, they come in so many shades there is a color for every preference and skin tone! There is also a nice range of colors in each of 4 major color groups: neutrals, reds, pinks, and purples. There are dark, light, sheer, shiny, sparkly, any thing you can think of, other than matte shades in this line. Thirdly, the packaging is cute! The color of the tubes is nice and makes it easy to find in your purse, which is a major plus in my book! =) This tube of lipstick does not feel like a drugstore brand... it wears well, lasts, moisturizes, smells ok, and overall is a great product!

I was very disappointed with this product. I thought that the color of the shade would be similar to the same named mascaras. For example, the black pearl mascara was black with silver shimmer... I assumed that the black pearl eye liner would be black with silver shimmer... and it is not... it is just black. Same thing with the ruby shade. I have the mascara and it sparkles with ruby tones... the eyeliner is just a flat brown! There is nothing special about any of these eyeliners, and the names are very misleading! The application, length of wear, smudge-ability, and ability to bring out the color of my eyes was nothing special at all! I would have returned them if I could have. Save your money and get an eye liner from Urban Decay!
