I can't stand the smell, which I know so many of you love. I also found that I can only use it a few times and then it doesn't work very well and I have to switch and come back to it. I don't think it left my hair in any better condition and to me it almost seemed like it would strip my hair of moisture. Not worth the price to me at all.

You have to be careful with protein based products - if you use them too much or in the incorrect way, you will end up with brittle hair that is more prone to breakage. I use this with a moisturizing shampoo and that is the perfect combo. The smell is to die for - my husband always compliments me when he smells my hair after I've used this product. I don't really like leave in products or I would give it a 10 .

I found no smoothing effects but I love the smell and it does add a nice shine. I would buy again but not for the smoothing properties.

I was excited to try this product after I read a review in a magazine, but I'm disappointed. I saw no plumping after multiples uses, it goes on like a thick lotion to me and comes off very quickly. I wouldn't buy it again, and the price is way too much for what it is.

Don't expect an overnight miracle, cause it ain't gonna happen. After continued use, you will see amazing results though. Your dark shadows will lighten considerably, and you'll get a luminizing effect immediately. You HAVE to be religious about using it, the days you don't use it will affect the results on the days you do use it. It's not a miracle but it does give great results if your good about using it everyday. I use it right above my upper lip as a highlighter and I love the effect it gives there as well. I wish it wasn't so expensive, but I really like the product.

I can't speak for anyone with normal or oily skin, but for those of you with dry skin like myself, do yourself a favor, and invest in this product. Your skin will feel amazing, and the more you use it, the more it reverses any flaws you may have - aside from freckles or age spots. It leaves your face feeling great, your fine lines slowly fade, your pores slowly shrink, and you have the best natural glow you could ever ask for. I will be buying the SPF cream next time, but for now I just apply my sunscreen on after my lotion. I can't say enough about this face cream. I know it's REALLY expensive, but worth every penny.

I bought a set that this came in. I was really unimpressed with Hope in a Jar, and this one was only slightly better. I found that my skin did get a little glow after words, but it has not effect on the skin as far as firming or lifting. The hope in a tube is joke too. Pretty disappointing.

I really wanted to try the mineral foundation so I started investigating different brands. The first one I scoped was Bare Minerals. When I swiped it on my forearm I was disturbed at all the flecks of shimmer that stood out. I don't know why anyone would want shimmer all over their face, but apparently a lot of people do since it's supposedly the #1 selling mineral makeup. I was in Ulta and decided to give their foundation a shot and I was not disappointed. The price is reasonable and the coverage is outstanding, plus, no shimmer. I wish they had a few more shades though, I tend to be more pale in the winter and I had to settle with the Fair 03 which works for me in the summer but in the winter it's a bit of a stretch.

I actually won this dryer in a online sweepstakes package, and I'm not sure I would have EVER spent the money on it myself. That being said, I'm also not one who ever typically blow dry's her hair. I have coarse individual hairs, and my hair is not thin and not thick either - somewhere in the middle. My hair is really full in volume though, and when I would blow dry my hair it would be so huge and poofy, I would have to use another heat styling tool to control it. This dryer doesn't eliminate my frizzy ends but it's not nearly as frizzy as with other dryers. It's also super lightweight, and I'd say it does dry my hair in 1/2 the time as other dryers - which is why I would rate it this high. Lets face it, time is money, and this cuts down your get ready time. It has a few settings which is also a plus, although some say it's too hot, I never have had an issue with the heat. It comes with a few filters, so you can change them out regularly and clean the used ones in between. I think this dryer adds shine too, which I love because I have semi-dull hair.

The shampoo is alright, but not worth the money. It doesn't add any shine, and to me it may be slightly drying. I thought it was average at best.
