Initially, the nice, soft, delicate top notes of blackberry and floral scents is noticed, so I (wrongly) thought this would be good for day/work. However as the day wore on, the fragrance turned cheap and aldehydic (chemical smell) and got stronger (and stinkier) as it clashed with my chemistry. It reminds me of my grandmother, so I can't see this as a young and hip smell. Disappointed, for YSL.

If you're used to coating your lashes with few strokes, this is not the right wand for you. I had to go over my lashes over and over so many times but my lashes still didn't get volume. Indeed, it reaches the tiniest of my lashes, but it's a very clean, separated, elongated look. The original telescopic does the same job, just faster.

This is very messy to apply, not portable at all, doesn't give you full coverage if you really need good coverage, and it doesn't last all day (my face got shiny in a couple of hours!). It was very expensive -- save your money and go get some 2-way cakes (pressed powder foundations) that are not messy, very portable, with full coverage that give matte finish all day.

These strips made my teeth hurt with tremendous pain for days after one application. I had to take painkillers and the pain was still there, I couldn't sleep at night. The bottom teeth hurt worse than the top. If you have sensitive teeth, DO NOT USE THIS. Too bad there is no zero star rating.

The shine lives up to its name. It doesn't have overpowering smell, and the gloss is comfortable on lips - not too thick, not too thin. It's not sticky & gloppy either. The brush is not my favorite since I prefer wands. The color is minimal, it looks mostly clear. For the price, it's worth it.

This lipgloss has a different fragrance for each of their flavors/colors, so you make not like the smell but like the color. However the smell is only strong initially, immediately fades away, and the color is only a hint of color, with decent shine to the lips. It has no sweet taste, which I prefer, and it feels comfortable on my lips. Very portable and great for quick application.

This product makes your eyeshadow more intense in color, makes cheap flaky eyeshadows work like expensive ones, and prevents creasing all day. But you can only get 10% of the product out unless you cut it open. They should package this in a pot. For all that effort, there are cheaper ones that will work almost as good as this.

When this first came out, it used to smell better, maybe at rating of 7. It used to smell enchanting and bit mysterious, somewhat intricate. However now it doesn't smell as nice, somewhat flatter, and it gets boring and tiring after a while.

This fragrance smells very chemical-like. It's piercingly sour mixed with musky smell, with hint of vanilla or something soft, what a weird combination. I think most people will not be able to wear this well. It make me sick every time, although I tried to give it chances.

This lotion is a great everyday lotion. I use it in the winter time, because it absorbs quickly, and moisturizes dry winter skin well. For the price (and big bottle), it's a great basic lotion.
