The smell was a wonderful pick me up and it kept my cuticles moist and lovely even in winter. I highly recommend this to those who want pretty hands with minimal effort.

I'm usually a Bobby Brown devotee, which tells you something about the amount of cash I'm willing to shill out for products. Well, my favorite blush had gone missing one day, so while I was at Target I decided to look for a dusty rose type color that was similar to my higher end product. Would you believe I could not find a single one that didn't look too glittery or unflattering until I stumbled on this Wet N Wild one for under $3? I've got to tell you, I'm really impressed by the staying power. My other blush would be gone within the house, but I come back from class in the afternoon and find that I'm as flushed looking as when I stepped out the door. Just don't use the flimsy brush they provide you, use something larger and high quality. That's the trick to most cheaper make up anyway.

as far as spot treatments go, this is by far one of my favorites. It's got a strong but not unpleasant smell and it really does visibly reduce redness and swelling overnight. It stings a bit on open sores, but nothing too dramatic.

The smell is the most I can remember...Which for something that promises to diminish cellulite and stretch marks is not the best vote of confidence. I do believe there was some temporary firming on a very superficial level, nothing dramatic. It's a midrange price point product, so if you try it you won't be hurting too badly...I find that regular brown sugar in the shower works a bit better, though.

Since its recommended to swap out mascara ever three months or so, I try to keep mine as cheap as possible...without sacrificing effectiveness of course. I'm completely a fan of Lashblast and will very likely be buying it again. It does on occasion clump, though no so badly that a lash comb won't save you easily. It makes my lashes look full, dark and lovely with little fussy. I would totally recommend this to a friend.

I've never actually bought this product, just bummed it off of friends and tried the sample at Sephora. I think it's just because I have a beauty masochistic streak in me and enjoy the stinging pain. I do notice my lips being a tiny bit lusher, though they are already rather plump. What is more evident it a distinct bee stung redness, though unevenly distrusted along my lips which made a male friend ask if I was having an allergic reaction. Don't pay $50 for this, it really isn't worth it.

I used this on and off for about a year when I wanted a little color. My mistake was not to get the corresponding facial moisturizer so my tummy, arms and everything else was just a wee bit more tan than my face which is never a good look. It worked quickly though was a bit streaky and had that lovely self tanner smell to it. It also had a rather annoying amount of finely ground shimmer which go all over my bed sheets. I bought it as an experiment and used up the bottle because it was handy, but I wouldn't try it again. The color you get is good if you've got the patients to apply it correctly (but It's lotion so you're more likely to forget what your doing and get sloppy) and you do get nice color....Though it fades quickly.

I don't put much thought into my shampoo and conditioner, I just need something that cleans and conditions, smells nice and doesn't break the bank. I'm a wash and go kind of girl and I must say Dove is an old standby. It will faithfully cleanse your hair and give you moisture and shine while smoothing out minimal damage. A worthy choice.

I had been on Proactiv for the longest time but decided to try Murad because I had heard positive things. I got a very strange result, though. I have generally good skin, though around that certain time of the month it tends to flare up. Well, this product seemed to even out the skin tone around my individual pimples, but didn't help the actual bumps or whiteheads themselves. Also, it smelled awful and dried me out. If you have money enough to experiment, it might work for you but if you're a broke college student like me, look elsewhere.

Why would you pay big bucks for smooth, shiny hair when Suave can give it to you for practically nothing? It smells nice and does its job without causing you or your wallet any drama. I think the best compliment I can pay this product is that I only notice it when I DON'T use it. Like a good sound system at a show, you know a product is good when its doing its job and is not obstructing from the over all effect. And, ta da! that's what we have here.
