Is it weird to have a third favourite cleanser? It might be but I'm not alone I'm sure!! There are no negatives about this cleanser it's just that I have a first choice cleanser (liz earle) and second choice (burts bees) that I would use before I chose this again. Hence the eight stars instead of ten. This product however is excellent. It is calming and non irritating to the skin, can be used over the eyes to take off mascara and your skin glows after using it. The cloth is great too which you get with the cleanser and this acts to exfoliate and polish the surface of the skin.

I usually use Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish but this Burt's Bees cleanser is my second choice and I really like it. First of all the texture of this is great at removing make up and even mascara. It is gentle but it quickly cleanses your skin without leaving it dry and it smells great too. I have never had any reaction using this cleanser and I can sometimes get sensitive skin. Other people have said it is greasy and oily but it is more of a balm texture and these cleansers are now becoming more common in other brands so this was one of the first. It is better used as a cleanser to remove make up not first thing in the morning when I would use something else. I live in the UK and this product is not available in that many stores, even when they do stock other Burts Bees products. But in my opinion they should this is the best product out of the entire Burts Bees range. I love it !

I think BB creams are overrated and I don't feel like they deliver their promises to be honest. This one is the best I've tried, however that is not to say I rate it that highly! I am not blessed with amazing skin and prefer more coverage but on some days like to use this with concealer to give a natural look or if I don't have much time for instance, I will use a BB cream as they are easier to blend then foundations. It is a little bit greasy looking so I don't think I would use it regularly, its one of those things I will just use every now and again. If you were going to try a BB cream try this one basically. But foundation or just concealer and moisturiser is best for a good complexion. These creams are not wonder products at all!

Maybe I was expecting too much from this but it did not match up to my expectations. The topcoat went really thick and gloopy in the bottle after a few weeks when there was way over half of the bottle remaining. So for that reason I would recommend the half price Sally Hansen quick dry topcoat which will save you money and dry your nails just as quickly.

I could never use any other tweezers after trying these. if you are thinking tweezerman are expensive, there is a reason why. They just make tweezing so easy.

I always come back to nail envy even though I love trying other nail treatments. I have been using this on and off for ten years and this is because it really does work and gives you stronger and longer nails within a few weeks. The only thing is you do have to use a good nail oil with it, and keep moisturising your hands. If I don't do this, I find my nails get too hard, brittle and eventually break with tis product.

I love this mascara. It is really dramatic and never flakes. You can build it up easily and it really stays put all day (or night). I really like the carbon black as it is really dark and intense which is something you don't always find in a black mascara. If you love the thick, dramatic, glamour lash look, you wont be disappointed with this in my opinion.

Ok this is pricey for a lip balm, but it is totally different. After using this you can tell the difference between using something cheaper such as carmex. This feels really moisturising and is great in winter. It is worth getting this if you suffer with dry lips. Cheap lip balms can contain alcohol which just make your lips drier.

When I got this I have to say I was quite disappointed after all the hype it has received. Yes it did take my make up off quickly and I did feel like this was a treatment for the skin but one thing annoyed me about this product. It irritates the eyes. Don't even think about removing your eye make up with it. They say it is an aromatherapy brand and don't recommend this cleanser for around the eyes but in my opinion why bother when you can use something like Liz Earle all over the face with no irritation. After using it for a month I didn't see a massive difference in my skin. I will stick to my usual cleanser and wouldn't get this again.

I would never use another eyeliner after trying this. The gel goes on so easily and it doesn't take much time to apply. I couldn't use a liquid liner again gel is so much better and easier! I use the caviar ink a really unusual shade which is something I love about Bobbi's range. Her colours and textures are subtle and flattering. The only thing I would say, I use this alongside the Bobbi Brown eyeliner brush so I don't know how it is to use this product without the brush. The two should go hand in hand in my opinion :)
