I have been in love with Proactiv for a long time and I've tried every single product they offer. Some I liked, some I wasn't crazy about, but the GTM is one of my absolute favorites. It's a really nice, very light moisturizer that goes on smoothly and has a lovely faint scent. I use it with mineral makeup and one thing I've started doing is mixing this with my mineral foundation to make a liquid and it turns out great! It makes your face feel amazing and stays on. This stuff is also awesome when you have irritated/red skin...I put it in the freezer until the tube is cool and then put it on and it is so, so fantastic for my skin when it is troubled. It's fairly cheap for me since I work for the company that markets this brand but this is one product I pay for when I need it--it's awesome. Another good moisturizer is the clarifying night cream, if you like this you'd probably like that one too since it feels similar but is a bit more moisturizing.

I've tried EVERYTHING for acne over the years and of everything I've tried, this actually made my skin oilier than anything else. Salycilic acid and my skin have never been a match made in heaven since I have combination skin and I usually need something a lot stronger to help my acne, and this made my skin worse. I used it for several weeks and did not like it at all. The bamboo pieces are kind of weird and don;t exfoliate that well. I was not crazy about the smell either and after I used this my skin would get SO OILY. I was using like 6 oil sheets a day compared to my normal 2. This was very gentle and not drying, and would probably be better if you have barely any acne to start with, but if you've got really oily skin prone to cystic acne/a lot of breakouts, it may not be for you. I will say that Yes To Tomatoes makes another cleanser, the clarifying one, that is a lot better. I would try that one rather than this one. (The other one does not come in the kit, it's seperate.)

Not a terrible product but not that great. It dried up my acne a little, but didn't help redness at all and it has this weird, very strong smell that definitely lingers. Plus it's overpriced.

I am an eyeliner addict. I wear black eyeliner constantly, and was not that impressed by this stuff. It smeared easily and did not last.

For a long time I used those little blue clean & clear blotter sheets and really wished there were bigger ones! These are HUGE so those of us with super oily skin only have to use one! AND the box comes with two packs and they're a sturdy little plastic pouch, not a paper pack. They are like a bigger version of the Sonia Kashuk blotter sheets, which are also good but slightly more expensive, both those kinds are the little brown papery sheets. I am still on my first pack and I got them 2 months ago. I would definitely recommend them.

A friend tried these and said they lasted her over a week, so I could not wait to get them! I read the directions and put them on and filed them down to the right length, and within 30 minutes they were curling up around the edges and came right off. They did not even stay on and are way overpriced.

This is a scent that I always find myself going back to again and again. It smells fantastic and though it can be a bit strong, it does smell really good. Flowery but not too fruity.

I was very displeased with this product. My hair felt like a brillo pad after using and was not smooth at all.

I bought these as a christmas present for myself this past december and am loving them. The rollers are velvety and nice and the clips stay on well, plus it only takes 5 mins. to set! The rollers are mostly big so these are best if you want a kind of retro wave style rather than tight curls. It is super easy to use and heats up fast, and it's only $30 at Target. the pink clips are also very pretty. I would definitely recommend this if you're looking for a new set of rollers for a decent price.

I have colored hair AND dandruff. It's terrible. Most dandruff shampoos use zinc which strips your color really badly, and they all seem to have sulfates that dry your hair. This shampoo helps dandruff WITHOUT stripping color! It's amazing! It's a bit pricey but I've been using it for about a year every other time I shampoo. It's great.
