This mascara doesn't thicken or curl my lashes because it has more of a watery base. Also for some reason, this mascara stings my eyes after I apply it and makes me tear up. I like how it doesn't clump, making it super easy for me to swipe some on my bottom lashes and it doesn't seem to smudge as much too. I usually love Lancome mascaras but I think I will save this mascara for the girls with already thick luscious lashes. It's not meant for straight skimpy lash girls like me;-(

I thought the color was going to be a mauve color with a little shine but it turned out frosty. It totally washed me out! I have to mix this with another darker lipstick color to actually make use of it since i didnt want to let it go to waste. I wish they have better color options that's not a frosty pink or frosty purple color. Also, when I applied it on it was sort of grainy. It didn't apply smoothly and to say that this is a lip balm is an understatement. This has more of a lipstick texture with no moisturizing effect.

The name is not true. I bought this hoping it was a liquid lipstick. Instead it's not!!!! It's more of a gloss. A super sticky one too. The color's okay but the stickiness just killed it for me. It has a nice mint smell to it but lacked the cooling sensation. It was so sticky I had a hard time applying it smoothly to my lips. Ugh!

For a concealer it doesn't really cover well--almost like having nothing on. I like how the product is very smooth and there's a whole lot in a tiny jar. It will surely last a long long time. But because it didn't live up to a concealer for my undereye dark circles, I had to return this.

Olay CC Cream Total Effects 7-in-1 Tone Correcting Moisturizer with Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 15
Too orange for me.....
I really wanted to like this since it was branded as "Number 1 Bestselling CC Cream." I was highly disappointed. The packaging is super neat and beautiful but when I applied this on, it was more brownish-orange than I expected. I bought the light-medium shade too. It also didn't provide as much coverage as I wanted it too. It looks like a tinted moisturizer but the color barely shows up but leaves orangey-brown patchy spots on my face. I like the thick texture of this and the lightweightedness of this product but I had to return this since this was pretty pricey at $20 and since it wasn't my shade, I wasn't planning to use this after one time of trying this on.

Garnier Skin Renew Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream Combination to Oily Skin
Prefer the original one.....
I think after many complaints of the original BB cream being too oily, Garnier decided to make a new version for oily/combo skin. I really thought this was going to be better but I guess not. It does leave a matte finish but I hate how the product is too runny like water. The texture is nothing like the old one. I also find these shades to be a little bit lighter than the original version. This is also not moisturizing enough. I still have to apply moisturizer on top of this afterwards. Such a big letdown! Will go back to using the original one.

I love the flexible soft bristles on this but I find the product kind of hard to squeeze out. It left my skin pretty dry and tight once I washed this off. The gel I find to be kind of watery compared to their other gel cleanser products.

The gel texture is kind of weird at first but I got used to it eventually. A little goes a long way. I love the pleasant cucumber almost citrusy scent. It doesn't leave my skin tight and clingy like other cleansers. I find that this cleanser isn't really good on removing my eye makeup as well as the Simple Gel Cleanser but overall it's still pretty good. Love the pump design so I don't have to open it from the bottom.

Their products seem to be the only brand my skin doesn't break out from. I've tried all other brands (St. Ives, Neutrogena, Clean & Clear, Noxema, Biore, Clearasil, etc) and for some reason Garnier works for me. This product absorbs fast and that's the plus side but I don't like how it doesn't moisture my dry winter skin. The fragrance is also a little bit too strong that it burns my eyes so I try not to apply it too near my eyes. I also like how its nongreasy. It doesn't make me look shiny. I just wish it moisturizes better and to tone down the fragrance.

If you have oily skin like me, this is the product for you but because this is a "light" moisturizer like what it states on the packaging I wouldn't recommend this for people with super dry skin. It left my skin moisturized without the greasiness and oiliness during the summer but when winter hits I have to replace this with a new moisturizer because it left the skin around my lips super flaky and tight because it's not moisturizing enough. Other than that, I highly recommend for people with oily skin during the summer time.
