I like the minty scent. It's not as moisturizing as the plain, unshimmery balm, but it's good for a product that combines a nice amount of color and balm. I have the Watermelon color and I think it's just right--not too pigmented and not too sheer, and not too glittery/shimmery. The only problem is that it's a little messy--it tends to get around the white plastic edge and you can't twist it down far enough to avoid smushing it sometimes when you put the lid on. But it's definitely a product I will continue to buy.

I love this balm. Although the smell is pretty strong, it's pleasant and I've gotten used to it. My friends (guys and gals) have also started using this product because it's great! I like to have it on hand.

Nor is it my favorite Burt's Bee's product. It's not terribly glossy, the smell is a little strong, and it's hard to get your finger in the pot. I prefer the minty scented balm in the tin by Burt's Bees, or the lip balm stick. Would not buy again.

But not as good as Johnson & Johnson's. It does detangle pretty well, although I do need to spray a lot onto my hair. I use it for my own hair, because my hair is long and tangles easily, and don't want to spend a lot on detangling sprays made for adults.

I really like this gloss, although I forget to use it every day and don't consider it "essential", but it is a great product. Just one squirt is enough for my long hair, and it adds a nice amount of shine without weighing down my hair. The smell is also fantastic. On the bottle it also says it's for dry skin, and I do rub the leftover serum all over my hands (you don't have to wash it off). My mom bought it, but once we run out, I'll probably buy another.

And it's expensive. I've had acne for many years and was hoping this would help! (I don't mean a few pimples, I mean severe acne that was even starting to scar). My cousin was using it and it cleared up her skin, but then it stopped working for her so she gave me an unopened set of Proactiv that had already been shipped to her, thinking it might work for me. I tried it and really didn't see ANY difference in my skin. I prefer Clinique's acne system, but have really found the biggest difference by starting prescription oral antibiotics combined with drugstore 10% benzoyl peroxide occasionally also prescription topical retin-A.

Clean & Clear Persa-Gel 10 Acne Medication
This helps my skin, when combined with a good cleanser and toner!
I have terrible acne and very oily skin that doesn't respond to lower dosages of any anti-acne medicated cleansers, moisturizers, toners, etc. I use this product every day, twice a day and it really helps keep acne at bay (not recommended if you have sensitive skin though, or if you just have a few pimples now and then! My skin is not sensitive at all, and has had severe acne issues for years). It's a great product, and a great price. I've used more expensive acne treatment products but because there isn't as much benzoyl peroxide, they don't seem to help me as much. It doesn't get rid of my acne completely, but it definitely helps clear it up more quickly than it would on its own, and helps reduce the amount of acne. The only issue I have is the effect it has on your clothes! Like others have said, be very careful because this WILL bleach your pillowcases, clothes, towels, etc.

I own this product in 'Envious' which ends up looking super hot pink on my lips. Hard to get a subtle amount of color. Fun for occasional things but the color isn't really for everyday wear, at least not for . Decent staying power but not great. Odd vanilla smell and taste, although not terrible enough to keep me from wearing it. Probably will not buy it again, especially for the price. Will stick with posietint by Benefit.

Although I got this product on sale, I still don't think I would buy it again (even on sale). This eyeliner is not very smooth and tugs on my eyelids. It is useable but not great. I'm going to stick with my Physician's Formula FLAT liner, or smashbox cream eye liner. (Using an eyeliner brush and applying my waterproof mascara as eyeliner actually has the best staying power of anything I've ever used!)

Good coverage,definitely helps cover my acne. I felt that although there really isn't enough salicylic acid in it to help resolve my acne, at least did not contribute to acne. I also have to use a different concealer for around the eye area because I don't want to use salicylic acid products near my eyes (the skin there is more sensitive). Stays on pretty well. Decent price.
