Here are all my reviews:

This is definitely moisturizing, but it fades very quickly. The positive: It is competitively priced, glides on smooth, has some lovely colors, feels like lip balm. The negative: It rubbed off almost completely whenever I ate or drank anything. Now I don't expect my lipstick to stay on when I eat and drink but this looked really bad. It rubbed off in places so my lips looked really funny. It also rubbed off pretty quickly without my eating or drinking. I'll be spending the extra cash to buy a higher quality moisture lipstick.

Personally this isn't my favorite scent, but my review is based on value and length of wear. My mother uses this and so I often borrow it when I'm visiting my parents and don't want to lug around a perfume bottle. The scent is REALLY strong for the first 15-30 minutes so I usually spray it on in the middle or beginning of my beauty routine so that by the time I'm out the door it is just right. This stuff is also very long lasting so it is great for the work day, but I'd do the walk through the mist of perfume thing instead of spritzing it directly or your more sensitive co-workers will find your scent to strong. It also stays on through a night of dancing, so if the scent goes well with your body chemistry I'd definitely recommend this.

The only thing I don't like about this lipstick is that it isn't long-lasting. It is pretty well priced, goes on smoothly, isn't drying, and gives a lovely even color that doesn't look clownish or freaky. It does rub off pretty easily. The saving grace is that it rubs off evenly so that your lips always look really good. I'm not much of a lipstick girl since they are often too drying for me, but when I do wear it I often choose this one. They have a pretty nice range of colors also.

This is a pretty nice eye cream, but it is pretty pricey. It is basically a nice, light moisturizer so it absorbs quickly and doesn't feel heavy around the eyes. I haven't found an eye cream yet that makes me go "Wow, this is amazing!!" so for me the cost of this eye cream out weighs the benefits. Still, I'm younger so I don't have many lines that I'm attacking so that may be the reason I don't feel much of a difference.

This soap is great if you don't generally use a loofah, but it is a bit pricey. The scent is really nice and fresh, obviously citrusy and spicy. I don't know if I'd buy it for a loofah user, but for someone who loves bar soap and needs exfoliation I'd say this is worth the money since you get clean and exfoliated at the same time.

This is a great foot lotion to put on in the morning or after a run. The mint is nice and tingly and will help keep foot odor at bay. It is a bit pricey and a bit thin for blasting dry skin. I recommend getting a thicker foot cream for before bed and putting this on for day time use. The light formula absorbs pretty quickly so you don't end up with slimy socks.

This is a great foot scrub. The pumice exfoliates although I have to use a washcloth to really rub it in, it is too rough for my hands. The peppermint is tingly and refreshing on your feet and also cuts through any foot stink. The biggest negative for me is the price. This is probably some of the best foot scrub I've used but I can get a couple of tubes of Freeman brand foot scrub for the price of one tiny tub of this stuff. If you have money to burn go ahead and use this stuff, but if you are on a budget you can find similar products for much less.

This is a pretty good lotion. It contains a tiny bit of alcohol to speed up absorption. It is barely detectable but I have a sensitive sense of smell. The lotion is moisturizing and there are some nice scents in the line, but it is a bit pricey for my taste even with organic ingredients. I like it, but feel like there are better lotions out there.

I love grapefruit oil because it gives you the citrus scent without going to the overused lemons and oranges. I like putting a few drops in my body lotion or sunscreen to lightly fragrance myself in the summer. It is also great in baths or oil burners.

I really like eucalyptus oil when I am stuffed up and sick. I put it in a hot bath and it really opens up my nasal passages. It is also nice in an oil burner, but the scent is quite distinct so I tend to blend it with orange or lavender oil to give it a softer edge. Great stuff.
