This is a nice masculine scent that I (a woman) sometimes borrow. It has a woodsy citrus scent that I like to wear after a workout. For a man, I think it makes a great date scent, not overpowering, not distracting, but still sexy. I think it is priced good for the quality of the scent and compared to other colognes of a similar quality. I'd say it has an average length of wear, but the biggest plus is that I love the scent the entire time that it fades. I often find myself only liking a scent only at the beginning or at the end, but this one is great all the way through. Note: my rating is based on length of wear and value, not scent since everybody's body chemistry and nose are different!

I love DHC soaps. They leave my skin soft and clean and the olive oil in this one helps keep away dryness. There isn't anything harsh in the soap so they are also great for sensitive skin. The only downside? They are so expensive! It's like $20 for a bar. That being said they do last and they are as good as bottled face washes, so I think they can be worth it. I can usually get them for $15 a bar when I'm overseas, so I just stock up when I'm there.

This scent of Dr B soaps is great for when you're ill. I love putting a bit in a hot bath. Soothing and refreshing naturally! It also washes off nice and clean and is great for anyone who wants to make their own house cleansers. I know that the 12-in-1 soap thing is not exactly true. This makes a terrible mouthwash, isn't that great for washing clothes and while I use it to wash my face when I'm camping it won't replace my face wash in everyday life. Still it is quite versatile and won't inspire any eco-guilt. Love it!

I love Dr. B soaps! The almond is nice. I really love the scent of almonds, but I must say this isn't my fave scent of Dr. B's line. Anyways, it washes off nice and clean and is great for anyone who wants to make their own house cleansers. I know that the 12-in-1 soap thing is not exactly true. This makes a terrible mouthwash, isn't that great for washing clothes and while I use it to wash my face when I'm camping it won't replace my face wash in everyday life. Also, I don't like using it on my hair. Still it is quite versatile and won't inspire any eco-guilt. Love it!

My rating is based on the length of wear, value and packaging of this perfume. I don't like rating perfumes on their scent because what works for me may not work for others and the way they blend with a persons body chemistry is also important. That being said, I do not like how this perfume smells when you first spray it on. It is strong, sweet, cloying, and too much. About an hour later it fades into something nice, like fruity candy. Sadly about an hour after that I had to put my nostril on my skin to smell it. I think value wise, it is more expensive than similar quality perfumes. The bottle is super cute though.

I've tried this in the non-scented version and in Summer Scent. I found the non-scented version was not very successful in masking body odors. It was ok, but I think I need something to neutralize odor and mask it. The summer scent is better. It has a citrus floral scent to it. I found that occasionally I'd have to wipe the stick with a piece of paper towel otherwise it felt like I was wiping old sweat on my pits and would somehow get stinky really quickly. I like that it is natural, but I don't know if I'll depend on these guys except for times that I'm not really going to be sweating anyways.

I never use clay masks when my skin is dry, but this mask is great for break outs and oily days. You mix it yourself so you can add juice instead of water to treat different problems. I like adding a bit of avocado if my skin is combo. The thin paste is easy to apply, has a great invigorating minty/earthy scent and leaves my skin taut and refreshed. I use a little ramekin to make my paste and have no problem keeping everything neat and clean. One of my favorite masks.

I have tried all of the Burt's complexion soaps and this is my favorite. It is good for oily, dry and combo skin. Of course the other soaps help deal with oil or dryness better, but this soap can be used year round. It has a light herbal and veg scent and lathers nicely. I like how it rinses off well and leaves my skin feeling fresh. Great complexion soap for any shower.

I have tried several spray sunscreens and this is my favorite. There is no alcohol in it so it can be used on freshly shaved skin without burning. It is light a light oil. I usually spray and then rub it in except on my back since I can't reach. It is water resistant but I think I prefer using a lotion generally. Now I keeps a bottle for when I'm going swimming or going out in a halter top and I have nobody to help me cover my back. I just mist this on my back and am good to go. This does give your skin a slight sheen.

Note on my ratings for perfumes: I don't rate my personal thoughts of the scent, I rate length of wear, price and sometimes packaging. I find most of the Harajuku Lovers to be a bit too powdery for my liking. Lil' Angel is probably in the middle for me as far as scent. It has a nice fruity floral scent which is nice, but it faded incredibly quickly. I think for the length of wear this is a bit on the pricey side of eau de toilettes. The package is really cute, but too much for me to buy again.
