I was in the market for a lip exfoliator during the drying winter months, so I went to Target and picked this one up, since I'm on a pretty tight budget. For less than $5, it is a good bargain for all the product you get. It's just like a lipstick tube, just grainy and smells like coffee! I was originally applying it like one would apply lipstick; putting the whole thing across my lips. If you do it that way, be careful not to press too hard to get the exfoliating beads to come off - mine broke in half and now I just use my finger. It certainly softens my lips, but it's likely there are better products out there. Once I'm finished with this tube I'll check out other options.

This is a new product that I wanted to try, so I picked one up at Walmart when I had a coupon. The razor heads work great, and give me a relatively close shave. With the occasional typical razor burn, I'd like some more stability, but other than that, the only thing I'd add is a bigger moisture strip. Love the Flexiball technology, it's great for around the knees!

As someone who prefers thin, matte lip balms, this is not a product I would use during the day. However, at night, I am more than happy to treat my lips to this! The product is thick, glossy, smooth, and nicely scented, and makes your lips feel beyond hydrated. Before falling asleep I often layer this on and around my lips in order to keep them soft. It is a wonderful product that I would definitely recommend, especially in the winter!

I got this product as a young teen, and while I haven't used it in a while, it was my first lip stain so of course I'll always remember my disappointment when it was terrible! This "stain" is a bit like a felt-tip pen, but there is practically no product release when you press it to your lips. The lip balm that comes on the opposite end is nice, but not worth keeping the whole stick for. This was very dry and gave off little color - what little color I got out of it was blotchy and uneven, and what little blotchy and uneven color I got did not stay for long! Would not recommend purchasing; I will always pass this by in the drugstore.

I love Bath & Body Works lotions, so I picked this one up once seeing it and smelling it at the store. The scent is AMAZING; sweet and feminine. It can be a little overpowering for some, but I like it. The lotion itself is sparkly, smooth, and creamy. It leaves your hands soft and scented, but not for long. I don't mind reapplying every once in a while, but if you have extremely dry hands or are looking for a deep moisturizer that will keep your hands from getting dry, this probably isn't the product you're looking for. However, if you're just looking for something to give you a nice boost, I would definitely recommend this lotion to you.

I use this glue for ballet performances to keep my falsies on. It is the only kind I've tried, since I have a very limited budget and it's cheap, and I'll probably continue using it unless I find something better that's cheap. It holds my lashes on and in place for over 10 hours, although by the end they're usually coming off at the inner corners, even with extra glue. I would recommend for short-term yet high energy activities. I'm sure they're great for long-term, little energy activities, but I don't wear falsies on a regular basis.

I experienced slight dark circles beneath my eyes around the end of the semester, so I picked up this product as it was popular and people seemed to think it worked well. Um, no. Even the lightest shade was too dark for me, and it caked up and refused to blend even when I warmed it with my finger and only applied a tiny bit. The product is not smooth at all and did not work anywhere on my face. Will be ditching this very soon!

I was interested in this product for the tint as well as the mint scent and flavor - it did not deliver in the tint department, and while the mint flavor was nice at first, after about a month of using this on and off, the taste turned sour and I've stopped using it. The texture is smooth, the product is shiny, and the scent is still very minty and refreshing, but for a product that only fulfills 2/3 things I'd like, I won't be repurchasing or finishing this tube.

I asked for this for Christmas after seeing a friend using it at school; I practically hoard lip balms and wanted to try this. This doesn't particularly hydrate my lips - I have to reapply often if I want to keep from licking my lips. It is very shiny but smells wonderful. I stopped using for my lips and use it as cuticle balm. It is not a product I take everywhere with me, however if my cuticles aren't looking too great I'll smear some of this on and it certainly helps. Don't think I'll repurchase when it's all gone.

This SPF 45 sunscreen has been in my bag for as long as I can remember; my whole family uses it during the summer! In summers past it has worked okay, but this summer it's just been a mess. I was recently outside on a barely sunny island for two hours, and packed this stuff on my face in order to not get sunburned. The next day, I was so pink it hurt! It did not work well in the sunblock department. As a skincare item, it did not clog my pores after I washed it off once I got home, but who knows if it would have clogged me up if I'd left it on longer!
