Ah :] This is the BEST dry shampoo line I've ever used, and I've used many. It's also available in drug stores, which makes it an even better product! I have used the fruity and cherry scent that has the adorable light and dark green packaging with the cherries on it. Yum! It smells amazing and really freshens my hair when it's dirty and starting to get greasy. Also, unlike other dry shampoos I've used that ALWAYS leave the white residue, this one doesn't. To make Batiste even better, they came out with a line for each hair color and they came out with a line for "Brunettes, dark hair" and I am obsessed!! Again, the packaging is adorable-It's like a cheetah print bottle that comes out dark brown. Reading the bottle I learned that you can use it in between root touch ups (genius) but I use it to clean my hair and freshen the scent. I part my hair in different parts, shake the bottle, spray on my root, rub it in, and voila, all clean! The ONLY thing I would say about this dry shampoo that is a little annoying is a dark brown residue does stain my finger when I rub it in but I can understand why; it's like I'm applying straight color to my scalp, so I can see why some residue would come off. Still rating this my favorite dry shampoo and a 10!

I remember when I bought this product; the sales associate said it was like "a drink of water for my face." I rolled my eyes and took it home and used it...She was RIGHT. I can't describe how moisturizing this cream is but it really feels like I'm putting a thick water on my face. The smell isn't that great but not foul, and the thick consistency does not require much product to cover my face and decolletage. I use this moisturizer in the am after cleansing my face and also in the evening and it's just a great cream to keep dry skin supple and soft. I had my husband try some and he used my whole jar!! He has always dealt with acneic skin and after using it for about a month his skin is looking clear! It's definitely safe for men as it has a neutral smell (not too feminine) and is safe for all skin types. Highly recommend trying it at least once if you need moisture!

I only have one Real Techniques brush but I can see why they are some of the most popular brushes out there. The grip is a softer feeling handle that makes applying making easy and does not hurt my hand; I love the hot pink color of the brush but the best part about it is obviously the brush hairs and the effectiveness of them. They are very soft against my face, and I use my stippling brush to blend my bronzer into my cheek bones, along my nose, and I contour the rest of my face. It blends beautifully and naturally; I can continue blending without worrying that the payoff of bronzer will be too deep on my face. This brush was under $20 and $20 well spent; this is a good quality brush that has soft bristles and does what it is supposed to do. I occasionally use it to blend my foundation and it's so soft and lightweight it makes my foundation go on very naturally and does not appear caked on. I love this brush!

I use this gel to keep my low bun slick and smooth (for work) from 6 am until 5 and it does the job! It smells amazing as all Tresemme products do, and a little bit goes along way. I use about a dime size and just smooth it all over my hair after I have it wrapped in a bun. Than I use Tresemme hairspray to keep it in place. I have also used this gel after I shampooed my hair and use a diffuser to give it soft curls with little heat. All Tresemme products are great and always do what they claim; excellent line of drugstore products!

I don't really know what this is supposed to be used for but because of the amount of white powder in the compact I use it as a setting powder/mattifier on my forehead when I start getting oily. After I put on my foundation and my Almay Smart shade concealer I use a powder brush, sweep it across the powder and dust it all over my face; after work if I notice I am getting oily on my forehead or t-zone I use the powder brush and just hit those spots to absorb the oil. I notice it makes my skin look a little lighter but I use bronzer and contour my face and it doesn't show. This is a great product if you struggle with oil and want a compact that is easy to use. The one thing about this product I do not like is the little brush that comes on the flip side of the compact; it does not work well for me and whenever I have tried to use the brush to put some on the brush all the product goes directly into the air. I threw the brush away and use my other powder brushes with this compact. This product is an excellent drugstore that works!

I have come to love Almay products. I use this concealer in medium under my eyes to cover my dark circles. I use my finger and put some in a triangle to conceal the darkness and than blend it using a small kabuki like brush by Bare minerals. It comes out white and when it starts getting blended it turns to a shade that matches your skin tone. It is awesome!! A little goes a long way and I love the creamy texture of it which makes it easy to blend and does not look fake or cakey. I also like this concealer and just Almay products in general because they do not have foul odors and are gentle for all kinds of skin. I have never had any reactions to any Almay products and they are well priced as you can usually get them on sale at Ulta, CVS, Walgreens, etc. I recommend trying this concealer and other products from the Smart Shade line; the technology is great!

I received this crème in a gift set along with the Amazing grace eau de toilette and shower gel. It is so luxurious! After using my shower gel and drying off, I put a layer of this body crème on and spray my eau de toilette on my wrists, neck and forearm. The crème has such a moisturizing feel and is thick but not goopy. It spreads well and keeps my skin feeling soft all day. I recommend taking a bath and putting some of the shower gel in and after putting on this crème! It is so wonderful!

I am in loveee with this fragrance! I asked for this for Christmas and my husband got it for me in the set which includes the 3 in 1 shower gel and whipped body cream (so luxurious). I have always been into floral scents and my history of perfumes has been Miss Dior Cherie and Juicy, however when I smelled this in store and sprayed it on my arm and walked around, I fell in love. It is so clean smelling, every time I spray it on I feel like I just got out of the shower. When I spoke to the Philosophy associate she said Philosophy scents are popular with doctors, nurses, lawyers, and military and anyone that does not want something overpowering but still wants to wear fragrance. She told me that Philosophy scents are a "whisper" not a shout, and I really believe that. It's a clean, feminine smell that I feel comfortable wearing around my 2 year old AND my coworkers. I use the shower gel and layer on the whipped body cream than spray on the eau de toilette so it will stay on longer. It's amazing! Try it!

I love this lotion! I put it on a cotton ball and pat it on my face after I wash it. It is gentle enough to put on every part of my face, including my eye area and lids. My face is soft and it seems to sooth the redness on my cheeks. It's also an excellent price point. I have to say Clinique wins my vote for best higher priced makeup and skincare because everything I've used with them works, they have great price points, and they cater to my red, sensitive skin! Thank you Clinique!

I do not have acne but breakout a little on my chin and forehead once in a while which is why I bought this. It does sting a little when you put it on but works wonders on diminishing pimples. I find that putting on a thin layer on the pimple at night and sleeping is the best solution. My husband has acne prone skin and this gel is amazing for him. He ended up taking mine all the time so I just bought him his own! I am always careful about spreading germs and bacteria so if you're planning on sharing this with a family member or significant other make sure you put the gel on a cotton swab and than use it. Clinique gets my vote again!
