This fragrance is one I enjoy wearing for days in the fall. The spiciness reminds me of crisp leaves on an autumn day with a hint of warmth to it. It isn't overwhelming or heavy. You don't have to apply much to get a nice scent that lasts most of the day.

I bought this last week while out shopping for a new spring/summer scent. I chose this because I liked the freshness of the scent and how the notes lightly blended together. It's almost a floral with undertones of fruitiness and a hint of sheer spice. I'm pleased with it overall but I do with it lasted longer. It seems to have faded by the end of the day. I bought the eau de toilette which isn't going to be as lasting as the eau de parfum fragrances I usually buy. I didn't see this particular fragrance in the eau de parfum, though. I will use it for a nice daytime scent but for days when I want a longer lasting fragrance I will use something else.

This shower gel, like so many, contains sodium lauryl/laureth sulfate, which is a cheap detergent (lathering agent). Anytime I use a product with these ingredients my legs will get itchy. While this might clean well it also strips skin of any natural moisture. I got this brand of bath gel as a gift and wound up throwing it away. No matter how good a product smells it is not worth it when it makes me itch. I won't be using any more Bath & Body Works products as long as their current formulas remain in use.

I was neither impressed nor pleased with any of the body lotions I tried from this line. For one, they contain paraben, an ingredient many people are sensitive to. Most of the ingredients in this line are not natural. This lotion did nothing for my skin. It felt smooth at first but as the day went on the moisture left. I don't have dry skin either. I do have sensitive skin on my legs and this product caused some itching.As far as fragrance, some are nice and some are too heady and some are just sickly. I would rather use a good perfume or quality perfumed lotion than this brand. I'll forgo this line from now on and use the lotions I am pleased with.

I use this product on occasion after the Volume 25 hairspray. It gives a nice shine to my hair without making it feel greasy. A little goes a long way so use lightly to avoid using too much product. The scent is pleasant and won't interfere with any perfumes, scented lotions, etc. I have used this for a few years now and will continue to do so.

I have thick but fine hair. I wanted a spray that would give me hold but no stiffness or "crunchy" feel without weighing my hair down. I bought this hairspray because the description was what I was looking for. I am hooked! This is the only hairspray I will buy. It hold great no matter what conditions - cold, mild/moderate wind, heat, humidity, rain, snow. I have never been let down by this hairspray. I use this mostly on the front of my hair just to keep it out of my face. For times when I use it all over it gives a good lasting hold without stickiness. A little goes a long way and it lasts for quite awhile. It's also handy to use for adding volume to sections of the hair while blow drying. Mainly, I just use it for hold. This product is well worth buying.

I am happy I purchased this brow gel and find it to be well worth it. My brows stay neat and in place all day and it provides extra lasting power to my brow pencil or powder. Even in summer heat/humidity this product performed well. This product didn't leave my brows stiff or sticky.If you experience this then maybe you are using too much product. Lightly stroke the gel along the brows in the shape you want them to stay in. No brow gel can help ungroomed or messy brows. The key to any good brows is basic grooming and upkeep. This gel will, however, help your brows keep their groomed look all day.

This is probably one of the best tinted brow gels I have ever used. Tinted gels are great for days when you want a natural look without spending a lot of time getting it. This brow gel has rich color that deposits on the lashes yet remains natural looking. Don't just swipe it on fast though or you may smudge it. As with any makeup product precision is key. You don't have to use a lot of the product to see results. The gel dries fast and isn't stiff or sticky. Works great for dark brows and doesn't leave them looking harsh.

I am very pleased with this eyebrow pencil. I have dark brows and finding a pencil that isn't so dark/harsh looking is difficult. This pencil does the job. Color matches perfectly and looks natural. Lasts all day, even in summer heat and humidity. The eyebrow comb on the end of the pencil is a plus. This helps even out color and smooth brows. If you find this pencil is a little dry in texture, simply warm the tip between your index finger and thumb for a few seconds or so. This should help soften it a bit. I will definitely buy this again.

This eyeshadow, while it seemed coarse in texture and messy, surprised me by working pretty good. It didn't crease or disappear. The main problem I had was the design of the bottle and brush. The brush is not a good design for shimmery eyeshadow and does not apply the powder well. The opening of the bottle has a tendency to remove too much product so it takes a few applications to get the shadow on. You may have to clean up around the eye area after application since the brush doesn't do a good job of holding the powder and it will fall off onto tops of cheeks. I'm pleased with the staying power and the fact that the shadow stayed color true, but disappointed in the design.
