I used to buy these for my dorm room. The scents are fabulous, and they last a long time. It is annoying that if you accidentally knock one over, it'll leak. They can be a bit spendy, but it's worth it to have your home smell nice. They're on sale frequently though! I love the warm vanilla sugar--it smells like you just made cookies. I've been using Scentsy wickless burners, but it's kind of expensive, and I think I'll go back to BBW wallflowers.

PROS: Drugstore price, frequently on sale. Easy enough to remove. Nice packaging. Average mascara length of wear, lengthening/volumizing, etc. CONS: Super clumpy. The brush applies WAY TOO MUCH product. Even wiping almost all of the product off the wand first only helps a little. It's too much hassle to make this mascara work.

These are inexpensive, but still look great on. Perfect for gals who are just learning to apply falsies. The glue that's included in this kit isn't very good (but that seems to be the case with most glues). Buy a little tube of DUO Lash Adhesive and you're ready to go. I will definitely repurchase these!

PROS: Better quality than you'd expect for $1, as good as or better than many drugstore brands. Decent pigmentation. Decent wear when used with eye primer. Smooth texture. CONS: shadow size is really small, triangle shaped pans are a little awkward. Plastic compact looks and feels cheap. Not really "eye brightening"--just shimmery. Shadow can be a bit crumbly and can create fallout. Good for gals who want to try new colors without breaking the bank, or those just getting into makeup.

It's amazing. This is technically a matte glitter topcoat, but it can also be worn as a polish. Two coats of this will give you fantastic, disco-ball nails. The glitter is just the right size, and there's TONS of it. It is nice and matte also. The most amazing thing is how quickly this polish dries--it's SUPER fast drying. And it stays on my nails for a really long time without chipping. I love the packaging, with the nicely sized brush and cool label. The only con is that it's a bit expensive... $13.13 a bottle. However, I'd say it's totally worth it. I will definitely repurchase this over and over!

I LOVE Prestige My Biggest Lashes mascara, and Prestige My Blackest Lashes mascara, and assumed that Lash Matrix Waterproof would be just as awesome, but with the added bonus of being waterproof. No, it's not. Not at all. PROS: SImple packaging, nice brush, pigmented formula. Decently waterproof. Decent price. CONS: Irritating to my eyes. Formula is REALLY clumpy, even the day after I opened a new tube! Ridiculous. I'll stick with the other formulas from Prestige.

PROS: Cool packaging. Does make nails matte. Dries relatively quickly CONS: No matter how thick or thin of a coat I apply, or over what base polish (I've tried OPI, China Glaze, etc), it only cracks in one place, right down the center of my nail! Expensive.

PROS: Rich, black, highly pigmented mascara. Gives lashes a nice amount of volume and decent length. Love the large brush. Doesn't clump. Simple packaging. Really inexpensive (and frequently on sale BOGO 50% off) CONS: There aren't any I can think of... this mascara is probably my absolute favorite. It's definitely comparable to Benefit's BadGal mascara.

PROS: Rich, black pigmented mascara. Nice amount of volume. Love the large brush. Doesn't clump. Simple packaging. Really inexpensive (and frequently on sale BOGO 50% off) CONS: Could add a little more length to lashes. Seriously, I love this mascara.

PROS: Feels nice and cooling on your eyes, which is a little strange at first. The color (I have it in Bronze) is beautiful, and nicely pigmented. No need to sharpen, which is a plus. CONS: Very expensive, especially for the amount of product. It is very very soft--too soft, which causes the tip to break off frequently. Decent length of wear--it claims to be "long-wearing," and generally it looked great all day, but a few times it wore off quickly. I don't think I'd repurchase this, mostly because of the price.
