I don't know about the "boost" part, but this is an excellent lip conditioner. It's not sticky or greasy in any way. It has a completely different consistency from any other lip treatment I've tried. It should be mentioned that in the original formula this goes on white, so it's not great worn alone. I apply it awhile before putting on lipstick for the day, and blot it before the lipstick goes on. It has a slight coconut smell to it that I like, also.

This basically acted like a primer, nothing else. I don't think it had any real effects on my skin, but it made my makeup go on a bit easier. I didn't notice a lasting skin-smoothing or tone-evening effect. The price is higher than I'd be willing to pay for a simple primer, which is a product a don't normally use in the first place.

I want to love this cream more than I do because of the smell. The not-too-strong orangey smell is wonderful. The hand cream, however, doesn't last as long as I wish it would. It may be just because this is October in Michigan, but I find myself reapplying this more than my usual hand lotion. The price for the the size of the tube wasn't excellent, either. I do like the idea that this contains vitamins, but I'll go back to Curel when this is gone.

This is my go-to nailpolish remover. It's inexpensive and it does the job FAST, without too much effort.

I hated the way this lipstick felt on my lips. I usually like glossy color, but this felt oddly thin after just a few minutes of wear. The color was also too sheer and didn't last more than half an hour. When it wore off, my lips felt a lot drier than usual.

I bought this based on the sample in an Avon catalog I was given. I don't know if perhaps the bottle I was given was an exceptionally old one or what, but this smelled very different than the sample. Something about it smelled overwhelmingly cheap, like a perfume a kid would use when playing dressup, but not something a woman would really wear. I'm generally not a beauty snob, but I want perfume to smell expensive, and this really, really doesn't.

This might be a great product for someone who straightens her hair. Given the fact that I curl mine (naturally stick-straight) and am perpetually trying to increase volume, this wasn't a good fit for me. The serum seems to absolutely prevent my hair from holding a curl, no matter what other products I use with it. I can give it props for not being sticy like some other shine products I've tried.

I love this hairspray. I loosely curl my long hair daily, and this really helps it stay curled without any amount of "crunch". It smells really good, and the price is unbeatable. I should add that the non-aerosol version shown here works MUCH better than the aerosol one with the same name.

I buy this product regularly. It's definitely one of the better topcoats I've tried (haven't used it as a basecoat), at the best price. It goes on shinier than most, and dries relatively quickly to a hard finish. It resists chipping for a couple of days, which in my experience is the longest any polish has resisted chips (pricey or cheap). I'd recommend it.

This product provided a not-too-tan shade for my very fair skin. I like that it takes a couple of days to get full results, so the tan looks more even. It doesn't smell bad, like some other tanners I've tried, but it does take some time to fully dry. The results are more natural-looking than most that I've used.
