I've used both this and the CVS store brand, and both have been an absolute necessity in my skincare regimen. I use it only once a week, because it can be a bit harsh if you use too much or press to hard, but it makes my skin absolutely smooth and soft. The first couple of times I used it, I could hardly believe it was my face I was looking at/touching! I don't know why it took me so long to start using this, but this is something I'll keep using forever.

While it's better than nothing, it never seems to get as many blackheads as I would hope. The only part of the strip that actually works is the edges, as the middle (where most of my blackheads actually are) always seems to end up on my nose even after I pull the strip off. Still, there's something satisfying about seeing even those select few on the strip. And like I said, it's better than nothing. I would stick to toner and exfoliating, but this is still a good product to have for those times when you have a special occasion coming up or the blackheads seem to have gotten a little out of hand.

I've always hated the look of mascara, but my eyelashes tend to bunch up together. I've always been satisfied with their natural length and volume, but just needed something to separate them a bit. The clear version does the job perfectly. However, it takes way too long to dry, so I have to walk around with my eyes half-closed to avoid smearing it all over my top/bottom lids when I look up or down until it's dry.

I have terribly dry scalp and stopped 'greasing' it because it made my hair too oily and nasty. Now my hair is healthy but my scalp is not, so my mother gave me this. I like that it's mineral oil/petroleum-free, and it works great on my scalp. I find it a bit heavy for my hair, so I only use it around the edges when my hair is pulled back. I also wish it were a bit cheaper.

I've been using this product since I was ten. Puberty (and acne) hit me hard and I needed something to clear up my oily skin. I've been using this in between my cleanser and moisturizer ever since then and even people who knew me from before the acne can't remember that I ever had it.

I use this for everything-on my roots and ends when I blowdry, roller set, wrap at night-everything. Because I have a relaxer, I need to keep my edges and my roots nice and moisturized and this definitely does the trick. You only need a little so one jar goes a long way, and I love the way it smells.

When used as directed (before washing, not after, as I've noticed some other reviewers do) it helps me tame my newgrowth when it's almost time for a new relaxer. The smell is a bit strong, and it is messy to use because it's oil, but it leaves the natural part of my hair softer and stronger and by the time I'm done shampooing and conditioning the smell isn't even noticeable anymore. It's also good as a cuticle oil because it's so lightweight.

I found this when I googled leave-ins for relaxed hair. Before that I didn't even know that Neutrogena made hair products. It's a bit pricey for such a small bottle, but you only need a little bit at a time. I blowdry everytime I wash my hair so my ends tend to get pretty fried, and I don't know what I would do without this conditioner.

I have extremely oily skin, and would never be able to wear any kind of eye makeup without this product. I can even dance in a packed frat party for hours and my makeup will still look perfect (true story). I only wish it came in more shades, because I am dark-skinned and even though it fades as it dries, it still leaves my eyelids looking a bit pale and chalky which I cover up with brown shadow.

It's kinda thick, which makes it a bit harder to apply. It definitely holds the shadow longer than if I went without any primer at all, but there are definitely primers (I use ELF now) that work a bit better.
