I was surprised at how saturated the color was on this lipstick. I wasn't expecting such good coverage, not for it to last so long (made it through a bagel, needed a touch up after lunch). And if you're someone who shies away from lipstick because of dry lips, this is the formula for you. I would recommend this to anyone.

I think this mascara is pretty competive with others on the market. It's definitely better than Cover Girl Lash Blast. The wand is almost identical, but I find the formula to be more wearable than Lash Blast. The mascara holds curl well and doesn't flake or disappear. It's a good choice!

Of all the Olay Pro X products that I've tried, this is the only one that I am genuinely enthusiastic about. An eye cream is essential- the thin skin around your eyes is one of the first places that will succumb to early aging. Essentials in an eye cream, for me, are: creamy but not greasy consistency, no burning to the eyes, sinks in fast, plumps up the skin. This cream does all of that - I will be buying this one!

While I didn't care for the Pro X day cream, I liked the Hydra Firming Cream. The texture was thick and smooth; it applied easily, gliding across my skin and sinking in almost immediately. It instantly make my face feel soft and velvety. The hydration was adequate, although I did need to slather it on in layers a few nights when my skin was extra dry. I'm disappointed in this line's price point- I was expecting drug store prices and did not find that to be the case.

There was so much build up to this line's release, and I was incredibly excited at the prospect of low-priced skin care, available at Target and other mass retailers, with professional results. The first thing to disappoint me was the price point- it's comparable to department store prices. And, while I can't say that the lotion did anything bad to my skin (aside from not providing sufficient hydration - I had to supplement with an extra emollient lotion to keep my skin from drying out) I'm just not impressed. I'll be interested to see what kind of long-term results are reported from fellow users.

I used the EverPure Moisture Conditioner along with the coordinating shampoo. I loved the experience of using the products - the scent and texture feel very spa-like. Unfortunately, the products weighed my hair down and made it feel greasy. Not for me, but probably great for those with dry or coarse hair.

L'Oréal Paris EverPure Sulfate-Free Color Care System Moisture Shampoo
Great Scent, Weighed My Hair Down
I used the Everpure Shampoo and Conditioner together and, while I loved the organic Aveda-esque scent, my hair felt heavy after washing and drying. Kind of like second-day hair, which meant that true second day hair was borderline greasy. It's not a good formula for my particular hair type, but bet it works wonders on dry or coarse hair.

In addition to providing SPF protection against UVA & UVB rays, the moisturizer helps correct the appearance of discoloration, and evens out skintone. Discoloration or hyperpigmentation is not a condition I currently deal with, but it makes me feel good to know that this moisturizer will ensure that, as I age, my skin will be protected. It goes on smoothly, gliding over my skin and making it feel quenched and plump. In fact, I no longer need to use a primer on a day to day basis to prep my skin for makeup. This moisturizer makes my face feel soft and evenly toned. The lotion does smell like sunscreen, but the scent quickly fades away. I like the pump bottle, which ensures that the product isn't contaminated by fingers reaching in and touching the cream.

Bliss Spa is known not only for the amazing treatments available in their posh-yet-accessible digs, but also for making those same treatments available and effective to women in the comfort of their own bathrooms. Bliss's most renowned treatment is the Triple Oxygen Instant Energizing facial, for which many a Hollywood hotshot flock to the spa. The 85 minute treatment includes intense cleansing, exfoliating, extraction, an oxygen wrap, an calming oxygen milk mask, and a vitaminized oxygen spray - all of which create a smooth, glowing complexion. The benefits are supposed to be both instant (fresh, glowey skin) and cumulative (long term glow and happiness). Sounds amazing, yes? Of course. And it's only $160. (Gulp) If you're like me and you want instantly fresh, glowey and cumulatively happy skin on a regular basis, but don't want to jump a plane to one of Bliss's locations and shell out $160 (plus tax and tip), then pick up a bottle of Bliss's Triple Oxygen Instant Energizing Mask for just $52. It's become my go-to treatment whenever I need a quick pick-me-up. I'm sure the full-on facial is worth every penny. I wouldn't know. I can tell you without a doubt that I never want to be without the Triple Oxygen Instant Energizing Face Mask again. Two pumps of the vaguely citrus-scented gel massaged over my face creates the most surprising foam that tingles all over. It feels funny and tickly and awesome all at once. Feels like what I imagine those little Scrubbing Bubbles do to my bathtub and sink whenever I clean them. Anyway. So the gel foams up and tickles for five minutes before dissipating. At which I rinse my face. This is when it starts to get good. Every time I use this mask, my face looks cleaner, brighter, clearer, happier than it ever has. Think your skin looks good now? Use the mask. Think your skin looks dull and dry? Use the mask. Think your skin needs some serious TLC? Use. The. Mask. It's completely addictive and you'll have to stop yourself from using it beyond the recommended two to three times per week.

I was excited to get my hands on this shampoo and had high hopes for glossy,shiny hair. Unfortunately, it didn't work out for me. I have thick, frizz-prone hair that didn't benefit from this shampoo. It smells great, and left my hair very soft. But I had to use a ton of smoothing product to get my hair looking good. Oh well. Glad I tried it!
