:/ Usually I find Clean and Clear products not very effective, but at least they 'clean' my face. However, this wash, which I purchased in a travel size for a vacation, didn't clean my face at all. The menthol sensation was unpleasant (why do companies even put menthol in face products?!) and this was the only face wash in a long while that left a lot makeup on my towel when I dried my face off. I even tried washing my face twice with it to no avail. It doesn't help my acne or blackheads, nor does it keep oil at bay. Skip this face wash!!

Man, I adore these things. They're cheap, handy, and soak up all my oil. I've tried other brands like elf, The Body Shop, or Boscia--but these are hands down the best. They're thicker than all the other brands, and I need 2 max for my face. Doesn't mess with my makeup either. :D

Ow! This stuff burns my skin. It also doesn't clean as well as an old-fashioned liquid face wash and does nothing for my acne or blackheads. I like the texture of the pad, though, but the solution is pretty strong--and I usually don't have sensitive skin. I guess it's worth a try since it's cheap...

I'm not really a fan of Clean and Clear products, because they never seem to work as well as they claim. This scrub is exfoliating, yes, but did nothing for my blackheads. It leaves my face clean and relatively oil-free, but I still got breakouts. It's a mediocre scrub that's cheap--there are others that work much better, though.

This is a superior alternative to the ubiquitous cherry chapstick. It has more SPF and comes in a cuter tube, and with two in a pack. It smells nice, but has no flavour. It goes on a little thin for a balm, but its moisturizing properties cannot be denied. The price, the smell, and the balm itself are all great--but a star off for being thinner than I would like.

I got this on sale for $10. All The Body Shop's body butters always last me a few months because they are so concentrated. The blueberry one is specially formulated for dry skin, which means its even thicker and actually feels like butter--rather than a thick cream. It sinks in quickly, and smells very nice. It leaves a very soft blueberry (or lychee, in my opinion) scent on your skin. Very good product, although I won't wear it all the time due to its lack of SPF, but hey, it's not supposed to have that. Overall a very good cream if you can find it.

I love The Body Shop Body Butters because they come in a variety of scents and are very moisturizing, even on my super dry, eczema-prone skin. This smells like what grapefruit tastes like, except more sweet and less bitter. The smell is pretty strong at first, but it mellows out not too long after application. One star off because it's a bit pricey, but only a little scoop on your finger is needed to adequately moisturize each limb--so it's a great deal.

I got this on sale for under $10, and it's pretty rich so it's lasted me a few months now. The smell is not my favorite, it's more like odd and musky rather than sharp and juicy. The scent also lingers so if you like it, I guess that'll be a plus. No added SPF means I won't be wearing this outside of the house. This body butter seems greasier than the others. Typing on my laptop means lifting my wrists up in the air because it'll leave oil on my wrist rest. It doesn't sink in very well at all--beware!

This cleans my face without irritation. But the formula is very watery and light, and it also won't do any of the extras that other cleansers do. I would not purchase this again because it just well...feels cheap and a watered down. I guess it's great if your skin was that sensitive...At least it does not dry out my skin, but neither does it do anything else at all.

This powder matches all the criteria I have for perfection. Pressed = no mess, cheap price, great shades that blend in VERY naturally, separate powder puff included with mirror, soaks up oil without caking, and has SPF! It also keeps my face smooth and not dry. :D Greatest powder ever.
