Here are all my reviews:

I thought this was a very sub-par self-tanner. It was so thick that it was hard to really rub on evenly, yet it somehow dried really fast. This resulted in a less even tan than I'd like (even when that tan took days to show up, as this doesn't give very dark results). I also thought it smelled pretty bad...not as bad as the Jergens stuff, but bad.

For a bargain product, this is exceptionally good. It covers REALLY well, and it doesn't rub off too easily. It looks natural, not cakey. It controls oil better than mineral foundation, but I still like an extra dusting of powder over the top of this to really set it.

This has been a staple for me for about 10 years. It moisturizes better than any other treatment I've used (without any yucky medicine flavor), and easily gets rid of any flaky, peeling skin. It's a necessity at night for perfect lipstick during the day.

I'm very dissatisfied with this powder. First off, the lightest shade they make is somehow STILL too dark for my skin. I'm not that white, am I? Secondly, it doesn't cover that well. Last, it doesn't stop shine for any amount of time. It actually has a slight metallic sheen to it, which I hate. This was way too pricey to be this bad.

I bought this in the lightest shade available, and it's still a bit too dark for my skin. At the same time, it doesn't cover very well (neither blemishes nor dark circles) and doesn't last. It doesn't seem to adhere to my skin very well at all, rubbing off easier than any other concealer I've used.

I bought this mousse thinking it would HELP me curl my straight hair, not realizing it was made for naturally curly girls. It actually works pretty well for me, though. I have to use kind of a ton of it, then blowdry, then curl, and it works alright...if the weather's not humid or rainy. I can assume that it doesn't stand up to bad weather when used on curly hair, either. All in all, I'd say this one's just ok.

This hairspray works. It made my hair hold the voluminous style that I wanted it to. The only problem is that it works a bit too well. It literally glues your hair into position, so it needs to be used really sparingly. Even then, it pretty much takes away all touchability from your hair. It sure does hold, though. It's a great value (very similar to BigSexyHair Spray & Play hairspray). For high maintenance hair, I totally recommend this - just don't use too much!

This is by far the best liquid liner I've ever used. The brush is easy to control and deposits a line of rich pigment. I've tried liquid liners that looked watered-down...this is NOT one of them. It stays on until you take it off, and even stays mostly intact through major crying jags. It's a great value for a high-quality liner.

This is an average volumizing mousse in kind of an odd dispenser. The nozzle is tapered and the directions instruct you to spray it right on your roots. Just a note: The mousse shoots out at lightning speed with full force, so be careful not to spray too much in one spot! I usually apply mousse over the entire length of my hair for styling help, not just at the roots, so this was a wierd method for me to use. After working the mousse through my hair and blowdrying, I ended up with a bit of volume, but I felt that my roots looked a little dirty. With the straight-at-the-roots dispenser, this might be a better product for someone with short hair.

I can't say this has totally cleared my acne (I don't really expect such results from a cleanser), but I like it. It's not irritating or drying, and knowing that it contains ingredients that complement the Acne Stress Control 3-In-1 Hydrating Acne Treatment that I love so much makes me happy. This leaves my skin smooth and residue-free.
