I bought the Resist kit because it said for all skin type as well as anti-aging. I have more of dry/sensitive skin, but opted to try this with money back guarantee. For a product with retinal it's feels good on the skin and does feel like a real moisture barrier, Not sure if the oily skin type would do well with this. I like the texture of it over the super antioxidant, it really seals the serum in and takes away that sticky feeling. I really can't say if it's doing anything for my skin, but I'm am using this for a preventive measure, and my skin so far feels nice and looks fresh still. For the price I think it's worth a try especially since Paula's site offer 60 days money back guarantee, so you really can't go wrong. I usually don't do well with retinal products, but this one feels great on my skin so I give it an 8 star just for that and cost.

I got this a while ago and use it when my skin feels extra dry. It's great for moisture and evens out your skintone. This is in my top 3 for concealers, with IT and bareminerals my top 2. The price is affordable and it's hard to find good concealers. I've gone through dozens and dozens of them just because I'm a makeup addict even though I wear maybe twice a week. I swear my mac is over 5 yrs old and it still works when I use it. No after problems either.

I can't give it a ten star because my chemistry has changed , though it still smells good on me and I have to use literally a tad bit to go a long ways. When this first came out in 1998 I fell in love with it and my ex LOVE it on me. It's been one of my signature scents since them, but as I get older it smells so much more mature, must be my chemistry now because there are a lot of perfumes I couldn't use before and now smell great on me. Even the eau de toilette last long and maybe that's my problem now.. I have to use the more water based one because the parfums are more because of the oil base that makes the scent more pure. This is a very sensual scent and not everyone one will smell good with it..I'd say get a sample and wait an hour after you put it on, to really see how it reacts with your chemistry. It use to be an everyday scent I could use, but now it seems more appropriate to use it out with the girls or to a lounge because of how it smells on me. It is an alluring smell, but I fear my time for wearing it is almost up, as where the older I get, the more it's starting to remind me of an grandma like scent. not in a good way, but who want's to smell like a grandmother when you're still young and have little one's who aren't even near graduating yet.

So I got into selling avon about 3 years ago for only 6 months and since the products were discounted to sellers I tried pretty everything and used my profit money to buy avon products. Well needless to say it was half and half on what worked and what didn't. Thank god I didn't pay much for this because it doesn't work...AT ALL...it's a good moisturizer, but I was hoping to fill in some of my lines from always raising my brows. It didn't work and my creases are faint not to mention there are products that do work because I've tried them. It's not worth the regular price and is def. false advertisement. Avon does have some Really Great products out there, but because there is so many, there's obviously gonna a lot of products that are failures as well. Good for lip moisturizer at night.

I first used this about maybe 4 years ago and occassionally use it if my skin feels dehydrated or just relaxing with a bottle of wine at home doing my own spa day. I don't know if it does wonders, but I do know it's thick and takes a while to dry. I've slept with it on and my skin seems to like it. I can't really tell though if it works or not, but I feel it helps to seal and lock in my serums when I put this on after it. It's pretty sticky, but hey beauty isn't really an easy thing to keep up with. I will continue to use it as where my skin is nice and how it was when I was 25 yrs old, so this must be working. It's a pretty good price compared to others out there and you can find it on amazon and ebay cheaper than the spa's for sure.

Okay my hubby new I loved Allure and been using it since '98, well he also knows I love my beauty products and spa treatments to help keep my skin nice. Well he should've know better than to by me something I've never used as where I'm very picky. Basically the nordstom's sells lady sold him on this saying it does wonders! Really, and he's suppose to be a good sales person himself, but when it comes to women products, very gullible. He kept pitching what the lady told him, and I asked how does she look? Old he said and bad skin. There you have it, if you're gonna sell, you may as well look the part right? So this was a wasted xmas present that I couldn't bought me much better products. I did use it though and it's moisturizing for your lips, but no miraculous ingredient that other products haven't done for me. I guess it was a 50/50 with him since I got my perfume, but I was so insulted my him getting me this eye cream. I do my research and told him and pointed out the fact that None of the products on my Makeup Vanity have Chanel. Eminence, skinceuticals, nia24 and well pretty much many more are better than this cream not to mention much less expensive. Don't get me wrong, if it works and I love it, I'll pay anything, but if it doesn't than I absolutely Hate it.

I got a regular size as a sample gift from sephora and the color they gave me was Gorgeous over any lipstain I used. It gave me that pout sultry wanna kiss lips. Unfortunately I could only give this a 6, because I can't seem to find the color they had 2 years ago. SInce then I've bought similar colors and kits and they look nice on my lips, but that's just it. It's nice, not hypnotic. When you find that right color for you, it's like magic. I just wish they sold that miracle color that made my lips irresistible .

I've been using skin 79 and Missha and they are the BEST beblesh balms every and not to mention the price is fantastic. If you go on their site you can find the perfect one for you skin type, I've bought 2 different ones. I didn't give it a 10 only for the fact it doesn't have other colors for summer or a nice tint, but you can blend it with a nice tinted moisturizer. I'm fair skinned and during winter this particular one is so nourishing and does Wonders for my skin. I look so fresh and literally you can't tell I have anything on. I didn't have time to wash my face before going to my classes at my gym so I figure I'd leave it on. Wow it didn't come off and I never broke out, in fact it seem to act as a barrier protecting my skin from the sweat on my head from my hair products. It's also seems to be water proof, so using a clarisonic brush and good cleanser would be wise of you to use. This is such a fantastic product, but must be catching on because the price has gone up since becoming popular in the US., but hey for about $30 bucks or so, it's worth it for sure. It's an actual BB cream, not like the badwagon products trying to cash in on this, that feel like just water based with no actual cream to it. My asian side of the family have been using these for years and so have I, so we just laugh when people pay ridiculous amounts of the so called New break through BB creams in the US. I use it by itself during the winter when my skin is very fair and in the summer I just mix it with a tinted darker shade, or you could just put a bronzer powder over your face to give that nice summer glow.

I have tons of curlers and this is one of them. I like the blue clips it comes with better than my conair purple curlers which is the wire ones. I only use the large curlers because it gives me a good body wave, also it heats up within 5 minutes. My hair does curl easy, but I do have to use a little more hairspray when it comes to these curlers. I'm a curler junkie and have almost every large fat rollers they sale out there, whether heating curls or just leave over night ones. I've had these since they came out and they still are going strong and I use them all the time, mixed with my other heat curlers that have the large size as well. IThese are really affordable and are about the average cost going for $30-35. I really don't see a difference with these and the INstant Heat purple one's that look and feel the same, aside from one has clips and one has wired pins to hold them in place. I do leave them on for atleast 10 minutes because I've notice if I take them out before they've cooled off, my curls don't really have a body wave to them, but rather more of a flat end of the day or looked like I was in the rain look, which isn't flattering first thing in the morning or the beginning of a dinner party. I will admit though I do wish the curlers were bigger, but on little girls with long nice healthy hair, I use all the curlers on my daughter when dressing her up for family photo's. I layer her look with the small curls on the front sides and save the large rolls for the back of her hair. Healthy straight hair is hard to keep curls in place, so I spritz her hair first then I use a stronger holding hairspray after I take out the curls. It last for atlease 4 hrs or so and then her hair settles from bouncy curls, to beautiful bouncy natural looking waves. So if you don't want to waste or have the time to use a curling iron which does produce nicer curls, I'd say this is a good investment because of the variety or curl sizes that aren't too Shirley Temple looking.

Okay I give this an 8 because I've had it for over 5 yrs and it does work, especially in the shower. I use it in the shower with coconut oil or a detox body was such as Toner Detox and then I use it to help me rub any cellulite cream into my thighs, preferably my upper hamstrings. Now I got this in the Fat girl slim kit for morning and night and it did help, but since this came out there have been other products that are just as good and I've found one that is BETTER and you can find at some grocery stores or online from $2-5. It's called Swissco Deluxe Scalp Massage Shampoo Brush. I bought this to massage my scalp and in the show I had an epiphany. So I started using it on my legs and guess what? It works Better than this bliss product and it's penetrated deeper and feels better too. It doesn't rub raw or get harsh on how this bliss can. Logically when you think about it, you'll realize anything that massages and stimulated your lymphnodes it makes sense. Now the Bliss does work, but you have to put more energy and work into it, as where with other products, you wouldn't need to work so hard and it's universal. The bliss does work, but only on your thighs. I'm not sure about stomach because I'm only weak spot is my back hamstrings I struggle with. This is affordable, but not universal in it's usages, so if you want a thigh massager right away, this is a good by at sephora or ulta stores. But I say get swisco, because you can get atleast 2 for under $6 bucks and work both legs at the same time, which cuts down your massaging time by half. It last for a long time and if water gets in between and you hear it shaking, you can take it apart and dry it to prevent mold and then snap it back together again.
