The packaging is absolutely horrible on this! One of the worst. I hate how watery it is and how messy the bottle can get. My sister loves this but I just received my free deluxe sample from Sephora and this is really difficult to use. First off, you have to shake the beejesus out of this or else it will separate. It is really oily as well so definitely not good for my oily skin but it does dry to a silky finish. And #thestruggleisreal trying to get the product to come out without it accidently dripping out and staining my clothes. Absolutely frustrated with the bottle on this. This gives a light to medium coverage on me but I don't know why my sister says it covers all her acne scars so she says it's more heavier coverage for her. She also says the product leaks a lot from the packaging. Again Bareminerals, what is up with the packaging! You guys make it sound so easy that it will just drip out from the nozzle onto a brush. Wrong! This bottle is the hard kind so it's impossible to squeeze product out. You just have to be patient and wait for the product to come out which half of the time doesn't even want to come out so I have to shake it out and my clothes are all spattered with stains of foundation now. Because this foundation is super watery I do not recommend using a sponge of some sort like a Beauty Blender. This works better with a brush. This product can get kind of streaky so be sure to blend, blend, blend.

I love the fruity scent and tingling feeling to this but I just found like this lip gloss was just like applying oil to my lips. This product goes on very sheer so it doesn't even matter what color you get. It bled a lot outside my lips and the oil always separated from the gel so after the first time of applying this, I would no longer get that thick gel-like sticky texture anymore. This is pretty much a tube of scented oil to put on your lips. Get the stick version of this. That one works so much better.

Received a sample of this in my Japonesque kit and this removed everything. Even my waterproof mascara! Not much to say about these wipes. I love that it didn't sting my eyes and I didn't have to wipe too hard to remove anything.

Would probably never buy the brand Clarins because it's way out of my budget. I received a sample of this and there is literally no point to this at all. I loved the vanilla scent to this and that is literally about it. For the price point of this (if I was to buy this for $25), it is so sheer that I might as well just use a Chapstick or a cheaper lip balm. I don't like the way how this looks on my lips. Every time I use this, I always have to layer some kind of color on top. This has so much slip to it that I didn't find it moisturizing either. Also, it did not last long.

I have tried A LOT of these crayon-looking balms and I had really high hopes for this one mainly because Tati on Youtube loves this. I have to say I wasn't that impressed. Neutrogena Moisture balms are still my favorite. This product felt really oily on my lips and the color I got which was a peach shade was chalky. They are not long wearing at all. They slip and slide around the lips a lot since they're really oily so they don't last long and doesn't provide enough moisture like I wanted them to. Smells really plasticky too.

This might not be for dry skin people since it's not overly moisturizing. However I found it great for me during the summer and winter when I need a little bit of moisture. It's not as light of a moisturizer as the Simple one but not thick and heavy as well. I like how it doesn't make me shiny or make me break out like the Olay Complete moisturizer. I would like it if this contained more SPF in it besides a SPF of 15 only. Love how this isn't heavily fragrance although it does smell a little bit like sunblock but not much. Doesn't bother me though.

Everyone seems to like this product but I found this drying on my face after I wash it off. It does clean well but I don't think calling this "gentle" is accurate. I feel like it is quite harsh to make my skin feel tight after washing it off because I have oily skin and usually products that are harsher will dry out my skin. This product is okay but I wouldn't repurchase.

Everyone raves about this so I decided to splurge on this. This jar costed me $19 at Target. Woah! Are we even sure we want to label this drugstore? If you don't want to spend so much on this product, Ulta is always having sales on the Neutrogena line. I saw this for $16 at one time. I love how refreshing this is. I read somewhere that for oily skin people, we should use a gel moisturizer during the summer instead of a cream moisturizer. Cream moisturizers just tends to make us look more oily. I don't know why all the gel moisturizers I've tried like the Garnier one doesn't contain SPF in it. I still have to layer a SPF moisturizer on top of this or a foundation that contains SPF. A little of this product goes a long way. It has a watery consistency so I just dab a little onto my fingers and it covers my entire face. This gives my skin moisture in the summer but when the weather gets colder, it doesn't moisturize as well. The flaky skin around my nose is still there. I will use this as a base during the winter and then layer my cream moisturizer on top. That seems to help.

It's not as moisturizing as I would've liked but it's not too drying either compared to other matte lipsticks I've tried. I got this in the shade, Sultry which looks a lot like a Kylie Jenner shade but I just prefer a lighter shade since they're easier for me to work with. I love anything minty and this has a nice minty tingling sensation. This balm is very opaque if you like that kind of thing. It applies very creamy and smooth. Try to go with a lighter shade if you're more about nude lips since this is highly opaque.

Maybe because I got these in a small sample box where they're just coated on a card that I didn't like these. Everyone raves about how pigmented these are but I found that they lack pigmentation. It blends okay but I'm expecting more color vibrancy. The colors were really muted and even after I applied this on top of the UD primer potion, these shadows faded within a couple of hours. Did I get a dud or do I really have to splurge on the actual eyeshadow in the pan?
