I was really impressed by this stuff! I started to notice results within a couple weeks. After about a month of use, my eyelashes were absolutely longer and thicker than they'd been. The difference was really noticeable. I was also glad that there were no unusal side effects from it like the prescription lash growth formulas warn about. I didn't pay full price for it (and I don't think I would, on my budget) but it really does work.

This is the best mascara I've ever tried! It's actually perfect in every single way. It separates my lashes beautifully while adding length and volume that be easily built up for a more dramatic look. It doesn't flake or smudge the slightest bit - and that's after wearing it for the evening, falling asleep with it on, and waking up six hours later. If you're willing to splurge on a mascara, get this one!

This primer does exactly what it's supposed to do - simple as that. I put it on my lids, put a little concealer and powder over the top, then apply my eyeshadow, and it looks perfect all day, every time. I can even fall asleep for the night with my makeup on and still wakeup in the morning to perfectly creaseless, intact shadow! No need to bother with the pricier brands everyone raves about - for six bucks, this one does the trick!

I love, love, love this product. It's the first really, truly moisturizing lipcolor I've ever used that isn't a liquid gloss. It feels great on and lasts a long time. And I think I found my absolute perfect "just-a-step-brighter-than-natural" shade in Peach Parfait (granted, I bought 8 shades, but that's my favorite!).

I didn't love this product. I have fine, relatively long, very dry hair. I'm familiar with using oil on my hair, as I normally apply olive oil to the ends after blow-drying, before heat-styling. So, I substituted the olive oil for this a few times. I'm just not impressed. It smells nice and didn't leave my hair greasy or weighed-down, but after a few hours, my hair looked dry again. The shine and softness it gave me on the initial application had disappeared. I wouldn't pay the high price for what a little bottle of this costs when I can stick with what I've been using with better results.

I have the waterproof formula of this mascara, and I absolutely love it. The brush is perfect and really grabs every lash. It deposits just enough mascara to coat my lashes and make them look long and thick, without being clumpy. It wears well without ever flaking or smudging. I'm definitely going to keep buying this one!

This lip balm is REALLY nice. It keeps my lips soft for hours and feels great on, and doesn't even cause my lipstick to disappear. However, it's absolutely not enough of a miracle product to be worth twenty-some bucks a tube. Not to me, at least. That's just too much. It's pretty darn good, though.

This mousse is just ok. It smells great and does a good job of giving my fine hair some texture and a bit of volume. However, I curl my hair, it doesn't help the style hold more than a couple hours. It's also kind of pricey for what it does. I won't re-purchase this.

When I first tried this polish, I loved it. It dries fast and it's got one of those, wide, flat brushes that are so easy to use. It looks great! After using one color one time, I bought a bunch more. Trouble is, this polish thickens up FAST in the bottle once it's been used. I ended up getting two manicures (with touch-ups) per bottle - if that. The really opaque shades are the worst for this. They ended up being one-time-use polishes for me, and I don't have the budget for that. I don't buy a bottle of nailpolish to throw 2/3 of it away.

While I was super-impressed with this line's hair masque, this treatment really fell short of expectations for me. As soon as I felt it between my fingers, I knew it wouldn't work. Like most cheap anti-frizz serums (and this is pricey!), the product is mostly silicone-based. Silicone will give your hair shine, but it's by no means a "healing treatment" as it in itself is drying to hair and doesn't allow any oil to penetrate. And in this, macadamia oil is fourth on a list that's crowded with chemicals. I'm not at all one of the natural-product chicks, but I feel this is marketed as something it isn't. Plus, it smells bad - kind of like a men's product.
