There are many pluses to this lotion: it's inexpensive, moisturizing, quick absorbing, non-greasy and soothing. The biggest minus for me is the scent. I'm not sure what it is, but it smells like fake cucumber and something to me. Luckily the scent fades fairly quickly, but if you are sensitive to scents this may be a bit too much.

I have this product in Dawn and really love it. Not so sure about using it on my eyes, it felt sticky and weird and the colors just don't seem right. I use it a dab under my brow line which is fine, but I don't think I'd recommend it anywhere that has creases, like eyelids. It gives a nice glow to cheeks and makes a pretty nice lip color. It starts off a little bit sticky, but quickly absorbs. Make sure you get your application right because it isn't easy to remove once it sets. Price wise, I think it is a pretty good deal compared to cheek stains and about average price for lip color.

I am a fan of Burt's Bees but these lip glosses aren't that great. They only give the barest hint of shine so I would consider them more in the balm family. They also don't moisturize that well and have a waxy texture so they don't score very high in the balm category either. The scent is pretty nice, but not amazing and there isn't really any flavor. Basically I'd pick a Burt's balm or the tube lip gloss over the potted gloss. Meh.

I love Dr. B Soaps and the bar soaps are no exception. They are made with organic oils and last a long time. The scents are strong, but not overpowering and they give me a great lather and are great for anyone who wants to be eco-, animal- and skin-friendly. I like to use the lavender to spot treat laundry, the peppermint to wake myself up and tea tea tree oil in my kitchen. They are more expensive than most soaps you can buy in a drugstore, but for the quality and the organic ingredients I think they hold up quite well to conventional and organic soaps. If you aren't a fan of liquid soaps, I'd recommend giving Dr. B's bars a whirl.

This is one of my favorite makeup removers to travel with because it can be used to remove makeup from all over your face, doesn't need to be shaken and really powers through to remove stubborn makeup. It is a bit pricey, but definitely worth it when you are on the go or too lazy to really spend time removing makeup. It isn't the most gentle of removers I've tried, but for the removal power I'd say it is pretty gentle. A good buy!

This is a great, slightly tinted gloss. It imparts a hint of color and loads of shine while moisturizing lips. It doesn't really have much of a taste or a scent. I love how much shine I get with a low amount of stickiness. It is pretty pricey but for the quality of the shine, length of wear and moisturizing qualities of this gloss, I think it is worth the money.

This has a fabulous scent. The conditioner is thick and creamy and seems to penetrate well. I think the packaging could be improved as far as telling you what ingredients are organic because it seems quite vague about what is organic. This was pretty good on dry to normal hair. The only thing about it is the price tag is quite high for what it delivers. I find that other conditioners offer the same softness and a delicious scent for less.

Although my favorite Lip Smackers flavors are not the candy collection, there is some fun stuff in this collection. There are a few different flavors than the regular line, like m&m's and Skittles with the classic scent and taste and for some of them just the hint of color. If you are a regular fan of Bonne Bell and addicted to candy, this is a fun line.

This has a fabulous cocoa scent and has a great rich formula. It is nice for lips and to moisturize dry spots throughout the day. It is a great size for a purse and really inexpensive. A tube can replace a lip balm and a purse-size lotion.

This gel gives a decent amount of hold and has a great grapefruit scent. The gel tends to leave hair a bit hard so it isn't really appropriate for those touchable styles, but if you are looking for a bit of shine and a good hold with a natural product, this gel works well enough.
