As a twenty one year old, I can't see myself wearing this perfume. It has too strong a scent that gives me a headache even after an hour- and I didn't over-applicate. This perfume reminds me of the way my decrepit substitute teacher wore in high school. Overall a better fragrance for an older age group. Its mixture of flowery and musky hues is not my type. It is overbearing even in small amounts. i would maybe buy this for my grandmother for Christmas because the packaging is beautiful.

I hardly ever blow dry my long hair, because it takes such a long time. But when I do, this is the only product I use. It isn't too heavy and doesn't leave any kind of greasy residue, common with leave-in, pre-heat products. I spray about twice into each part of my hair that I blow-dry and it is soft and non-frizzy. I love the smell so much! Its like honey and vanilla, but with none of the bath-and-body-works 12-year old intensity. Although b and b is a little expensive, a little also goes a long way. And now that its available at stores like Meijer, its an unbeatable option. I will say that using it without heat doesn't do much, so no reason to waste your sprays if you aren't going to straighten or blow-dry.

I like this product. I will say that, having slight problem (acne) skin, I cannot use this product alone. I use this wash in the morning to wash away the medication on my skin before lotions with cold water and it makes me glow. Additionally, I can use it for the removal of my eye makeup (even water proof) in the evening in my shower, for example. As this does not have any salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide, however, I cannot use it alone to clear up my acne or exfoliate. This product removes makeup well and doesn't dry out the skin, and for this reason is likely ideal for slightly older skin than mine. But its great smell and cheap price (about $8.00) has made me buy more than one bottle of this new-er product.

I am the definition of dirty blonde, but after about a week of using this product all my stylists called me a "true strawberry blonde". I use this in combination with the conditioner and it has undoubtedly brought out the blonde highlights to their fullest in my hair. People even ask me if I've dyed it! I can say no, because no harsh chemicals in this shampoo/conditioner combo! I have a long head of hair and a bottle of conditioner/shampoo can last me about 3 weeks. For about $8.50 each, this is without a doubt a product you should stock up on!

Personally, I don't understand all the hype about this product. My lashes are neither extremely long, short, thick, or thin- I'd say they are average. Still, I only need a regular brush to get to all of them. In the fashion shows I do makeup artists rarely go crazy on the bottom lashes, no matter what the look is. I agree with their vision; its not necessary to over-do the bottom lashes, which is the only benefit to this mascara. I like to do three to four coats of Dior Show and Maybeline's signature mascara in very black- that covers all my lashes and gives me great volume. I'd say not to waste your money on this product.

I love this product. I have been using it for a couple of weeks at night and in the morning and it has improved the tone of my skin. I sometimes experience redness and have discoloration, etc, and this has made my skin seem more even. I love the texture, too- its lightweight but very silky smooth. I put this on before my SPF and after my antioxidant serum. It provides a great base for makeup, too. For the price, the amount they give you and the packaging is great! Def one of the best drugstore products out there right now!

Although I like the smell of this product, its sticky texture leaves your hair with a strange, not-so-natural feeling. It is supposed to prevent split ends, and it does keep my hair looking healthy, but I like to use it overnight instead of during the day. If I use it during the day it leaves a film on my back and on my hands when I touch my hair. The packaging is nice, as usual with TIGI, but it doesn't really give me much of an ego boost. I wouldn't recommend this product if you had the option to buy another TIGI product. This one doesn't even smell as good as these products usually do. It probably wasn't worth over $15.

I only have chapped lips in the winter- and I bought this to get that gross dead skin off. Its too gentle to work for that purpose, though. As a conditioning treatment this is fine, but I don't think this product actually exfoliates. Instead of buying anymore exfoliating products for your lips, just try adding some sugar to a dab of honey and rubbing it on your lips for about 1 min- that will get the dead skin off. You can follow up with this and end with a moisturizing lip gloss.

I love the moisturizing power of this lotion- it lasts all day but its not too thick. This is a great summer-time or before bed moisturizer. Although I don't think aromatherapy is helpful for my stress levels, I will continue buying this product! And, as always, you can't beat the price for 6 bucks.

When you think of "airbrushed" makeup, you would think that you could just spray this bottle right on to your face and call it a day. Unfortunately, that is not the case. When I read the directions for this makeup I was sad that I couldn't put makeup on like the models, but I soon discovered that this is a great product anyway! You spray it into your hand and then apply it to your face, but it still provides the same airbrush look. The coverage is different than any other foundation I have ever used; it looks more even and has a glow to it, instead of a cakey look. It is SPF 8, which is great in combination with an SPF moisturizer or primer underneath. Warning: Do not apply water to your non-latex makeup sponge before applying this makeup, because that will make application uneven. If you are on any product like accutane or your face is just dry in general, this product will enhance the look of that dryness, so I would advise that you stay away from it. For $8 this is my best beauty find all week!
