I normally love Kiss My Face products, but I found this moisturizer to be overpriced for the product. I didn't feel like it really tightened anything and as a moisturizer it was only okay. It didn't soak into my skin very well and doesn't leave my skin feeling anything special. The scent is nice and fresh.

I love the scent of this sunscreen. It is a moisturizer so if you are looking for sunscreen only this probably isn't for you. However, for my dry skin this is one of my favorites. It leaves my skin soft and lightly scented and the SPF means that I know I'm protecting my skin while I do my everyday errands. This isn't water resistant or anything so I wouldn't recommend it for beach use.

This shimmer is unlike all of the other Burt's Bees shimmers because it doesn't really have any color. It is simply shimmery so it can be used to give a bit of sparkle to bare lips or add some shimmer to a matte lipstick. I find that these moisturize as well as Burt's Bees lip balms. I also love how easy it is to apply these shimmers.

I have had very short hair and quite long hair although I tend to have an oily scalp. This shampoo bar works much better with hair that is under 5 inches long or for people who only wash their scalps and condition their ends. The scent is awesome and I love how it made my hair smell afterwards. I felt like my hair was really clean, but I found that I felt like conditioning more often. The bar also lasts quite a long time. That being said, I think there are better shampoo bars for the money. I usually reach for the Lush Hybrid bar instead of this one.

I love Burt's Bees Lip Shimmers. Normally I am not a fan of lipstick. I find it drying and difficult to apply without a mirror. I have several lip shimmers now and love the fact that I can get a bit of color, moisture and apply them easily on the go. It is like having a Burt's Bees lip balm with color! These do not have the same color saturation as lipsticks, but they have much more color than the average tinted balm or gloss. I have had to go through several shades to find the ones that work for me. I've ended up giving several tubes to my girlfriends because some of the colors work better on them. However, once you find your shade, they are great! They are almost all quite shimmery, so if you prefer a more matte look this is probably not what you're looking for. Radiance and Champagne are both quite light so I enjoy using them alone and over matte lipstick to punch it up a bit. Fortunately they aren't pricey so you can buy several tubes for the price of a lipstick.

The crystal deodorant must be applied to wet skin so if you aren't freshly showered you must either put water on the rock or your armpits which I find is a bit messy. Once applied I find that I need to let it dry and moisten the rock again to add a second layer to get any use out of this product. The pluses are that it is unscented and clear, the negative is that is only a so-so deodorant. It is not an anti-perspirant so it will do nothing for sweating. As far as masking the scent of sweat it is enough for light everyday activity but does almost nothing for when I've been stress sweating or exercising. A good choice for someone who wants a natural product and doesn't sweat it much.

I love that this stone comes on a rope. It makes it easier to hold and easier to store in my shower. I find pumice to rough for my elbows and knees although some of my friends swear by it. Instead I prefer to use it on dead skin. With a little bit of soap or scrub I can really rub away the dead skin on my feet. Plus it lasts forever!

I love how this paste refreshed my mouth. It almost feels like I've used a mouthwash. This is my favorite non-fluoride toothpaste. It cleans well and leaves your mouth feeling minty and fresh.

This is a pretty pricey and time intensive henna. It comes in a block that must be cut up or shredded first. Once you get it on your hair I found that it was pretty average as far as hair hennas go. I like the caca rouge for soft red highlights, however it isn't a dramatic henna coloring. I have gotten better results with other, cheaper hennas when I want an obvious color difference. I'm a fan of Lush, but this isn't one of my regular purchases.

Lush bath bombs are wonderful! They are a bit pricey so I often break them in half or thirds and still have a decadent bath for much less. They are often heavily scented so if you are looking for something that isn't, find another bath bomb. I love how much they fizz and bubble and find myself lightly scented for the day or night after my bath. Most of them are also pretty moisturizing. One of the negatives is that they often leave gunk behind in your tub. Some of them it is just a film, but other bombs have glitter, flowers and other things inside of them that will leave you scrubbing your tub out. Overall though it is tough to beat these guys for bathing luxury.
