Manages to the dark circles after a night of partying and hides monster pimples extremely well (you know the ones...it feels like there is another head growing out of your face). My only gripe about it is that is slightly cakey when applied generously for more coverage. Tends to look a little weird at the end of the day too, when my skin gets the oiliest. But it's definitely still my favorite concealer by far!

There is a reason why traditional mascara wands have been around for so long...because they work! If it ain't broke, don't fix it. This wacky ball was awkward to use, especially for shorter and straighter asian lashes. Made a smudgey mess on the outside corner of my eyes too. I gave it a chance and used it for a little under 2 weeks before giving up on it. It's a shame too, because the actual mascara formula is pretty good. Lasted for a good amount of time and my lashes never looked flaky or crunchy. But I just couldn't get past the application problem with the ball.

I use Natural Black just to cover up some minimal greys and for an overall color boost. This works! It leaves your hair shinier and your natural tones are more enhanced, all without drastically altering your color too much. I love it!

This product is great for its price...less than $20 for DIY hair color, rather than the $100+ you'd have to shell out for a salon job. However, the results of course can't be compared to professional coloring. Unfortunately, the color is vibrant for only about 2 weeks and quickly fades afterwards. I've found that the colors always come out a little darker on me than what is shown on the box, but that could just be my hair type.

I worked for a plastic surgeon and patients who have had chemical peels or any sort of facial work are usually recommended to use this, which shows you how well it really works. It doesn't have any unnecessary chemicals or fragrances in it so it won't aggravate skin and really does a great job in moisturizing and soothing. I've tried it before also and love it for those EXTREMELY cold and dry winter mornings.

...no creases. Acts as a magnet to eyeshadows. Cut the bottle in half to get more for your money though! A lot of it gets trapped in the weird bottle.

I've been using this one for years. Works perfectly, and doesn't tug or beat your eyelashes up. My lashes look great, even without mascara. Doesn't make that weird kink or bend in the eyelashes that some curlers leave you with. The curl is soft and dramatic and elegant. This is a really high quality tool, as you'd expect from Shiseido. I think the general consensus in the beauty industry for the best eyelash curlers are of course the legenedary Shu Uemura curlers and this lovely one from Shiseido! I've tried other eyelash curlers from time to time and there really is no other.

With skin cancer becoming so common these days, it's always important to arm yourself with lotions like this in the summertime. I slather it in my arms and legs and it keeps me healthy and safe. A bit too heavy for the face though, I'd recommend a lotion specifically for the face instead.

This doesn't work on all skin types/colors. Later in the day after my face got a bit oilier from the natural oils, this powder started to get a little cakey and looked...well, muddy. Almost as if I had dirt on my face. Not good for oily skin! And like the other reviews said, I could see this being clownish looking and much too intense for someone with fairer skin.

This is a great lotion, but the only thing that bugged me was the little bit of shimmer that is in the lotion. It's like tiny particles of glitter that diffuse light and make your skin look radiant. However, it makes a mess when you're wearing tighter black clothing. And sometimes, I just want my skin to be moisturized, nothing more and nothing less! Fix the formula and this one is a winner.
