I purchased these is a double pack, so I ended up with 60 or so. They hurt my face, so I don't recommend them for anyone with sensitive skin or active blemishes. If I'd wanted a face scrub, I wouldn't have purchased these as make-up remover. They performed well for someone close to me who simply wanted a clean face at the end of a busy, hot, messy work day and didn't want the grime of the road to remain on their face during their drive home from work. So if they're used just to clean, but not to remove more than dirt and oil, they seem to be fine, but I don't want these anywhere near my face or eyes ever again!

I LOVE this eye make-up remover in a serious way. It's the most gentle thing in the world and completely removes my eye make-up in just a few seconds. It's especially good at getting stubborn liner and mascara off and leaves your eyes feeling moisturized, instead of red and raw. I use a tiny bit of this on a cotton pad or Q-tip and it never fails to get the job done. I've been using a sample size bottle for probably two years now and it's still pretty full, so if you're unsure about this because of price, look for a small bottle on Ebay. Sephora tends to sell the smaller bottles in MUFE kits, so if you use the brand, keep an eye out. This stuff is amazing and even with the higher price tag, I'd still buy a bigger bottle.

Initially upon receiving this product, I put it away. It has an oil base to it that sort of grossed me out, but I have found that this product REALLY works on stubborn eye make-up, especially liner and mascara. If you wear both, like I do, you know that a lot of make-up wipes don't get all of the residual liner and mascara off. A little bit of this on a cotton pad or two and you know there's nothing left behind. I shake this product up before using and that gives me the best results without being too oily. It's not going to be for everyone, but I break it out when it's necessary and it saves me a lot of grief at the end of the day. I do think it's expensive, so I recommend buying it in a Sephora kit with a mess of other items you want to try out or searching Ebay for a small bottle. These are really cost effective ways to try out products you're unsure of.

I've tried a lot of different blotting paper brands, and thus far Boscia's are the best. I like the Lavender as well as the Green Tea. These absorb quickly and you don't come away feeling greasy or sticky. I keep these in my purse and make-up bag year-round. They perform really well during scorching temps when you're wearing minimal make-up, and they don't slide around like a few other brands I've used. These are a little pricey, but shouldn't have to be replaced constantly as you get a lot in a package.

This product is similar to so many exfoliating cleansers on the market, but I just don't feel that it's gentle enough to be used every day, especially if you've got active breakouts that are healing. If you have clear skin, this might bring some breakouts to the surface, so know your skin and if you don't react well to a lot of surface exfoliation, go with something gentler.

I've been using this product on and off for several years, but in the past year I've gone back to using it several times a week. It's gentle and extremely effective, especially for combination and/or dry skin. I invested in a 32 ounce bottle that way I'd have it for more than a few months and it's mh more cost effective this way. I will sometimes mix it in with my cleanser for a slightly more gentle way of doing things, but in general this product is pretty gentle and gets the job done. My skin has consistently looked good because of this product and regular Clarisonic use. I like to use this before cleansing, it really helps remove any dead surface skin cells and it leaves my skin incredibly soft, smooth, and clear. I definitely notice a difference if I reduce the amount of use in a week, so for anyone that likes their skin to be clean and clear, not to mention soft, this is a great product to try. If you don't want to make the investment on an 8 ounce bottle I recommend searching Ebay for travel sized bottles of this that are usually 1 or 2 ounces. You'd be surprised how long you can use a 2 ounce bottle before running out, so again, go this route before making the investment on a larger bottle, just in case you don't like it, but I really don't think that will happen.

I've been using this brand on & off for over ten years. Now it's mostly "on". I have my favorites, we all do, but the quality of the product does not diminish from bottle to bottle. It's very consistent. I loved the recent Holland collection (Vampsterdam is GORGEOUS!) and continue to find new loves on a seasonal basis.

This product, while heavily advertised, doesn't live up to its hype. My skin is super sensitive, and this lotion did NOTHING to keep it hydrated. It was back to dry skin within an hour of application. How is that living up to what it's supposed to do?! Even worse? I was stuck with the entire bottle!

This is a perfectly fine eye lash curler, the handle is nice because it gives you more room to really curl your lashes better, but after several months I went back to using a heated lash curler before finally switching over to Shu Uemura which seems to give me equally as good a curl as this one. In the end, I think it's all a toss up. Use whatever works best for you. However, this one is not lacking in anything.

This is a really nice product. It absorbs quickly and doesn't leave my combination skin feeling greasy. I only use this on the super dry areas of my face. It's a little too expensive for me to consider using it as cuticle oil or anything, but I think as others continue to find uses for it I will too.
