I am a product snob - I like high end or really exclusive skin care brands (La Mer, 3Lab, Cle De Peau, Koh Gen Do...) but this is my go to eye cream in a heart beat. I tried so many others, and this is the only one that yields consistent results. I'm now on my 3rd tube after trying several other eye creams. It gives my tired eyes a boost and since sagging eye lids run in my family, I'm all about keeping them firm and lifted.

If you're looking for an easy to use pen that gives the eye lashes a boost, this is it! I use it to add the tiniest line next the lashes to make them look fuller, over the band of false lashes to blend them into natural lashes and cover any glue, to add a boost to eye makeup before mascara and to create cat eyes. It doesn't smudge, but can wear away if you're oily. I love it!

I remember this line when it first launched in the mid 90's...it was super edgy. The shadows came it worn out metal tins and were really cutting edge as far as color selection. Now they're just a cute line with decent products. I know they got bought out by another company (who also ruined Hard Candy) - and overall the product is decent. But sometimes when you try to make something better, you just take away what made it special in the first place.

I love that it is a luxurious cream that comes in a pump! I just use one pump, warm it in my hands and smooth onto my skin. Sometimes I use a serum when I'm extremely dry - but the texture of this cream leaves me moist without being greasy or giving me blemishes. My skin is really sensitive and particular about products...which I often switch because I love cosmetics and my curiosity gets the best of me. But I have an arsenal of products that are must haves and this may just replace my beloved Creme de la Mer! Skin is smoother, hydrated, clear and firm. With the three ingredients (titrated Resveratrol and Viniferine from grapevines and grape-seed Polyphenols) this cream is destined to work long term!

I'm loyal to LUSH Mask of Magnaminty...its my favorite deep cleansing mask. It cost quite a bit more than this inexpensive tube and worth it. However, in a pinch, this product delivers almost identical results, although it is a little more harsh, doesn't have aduki beans for exfoliating and doesn't smell as lovely. So, while I'll spend a little more for Mangaminty - this is easily a good replacement for those who are a little more frugal.

This fragrance is warm and sophisticated in a cashmere blanket sort of way. It isn't stuffy or pretentious, but makes me feel pretty and approachable. Its like what Chanel No5 wears on the weekend.

I love these! I have several of the colors and throw them in all my different handbags and diaper bags. They perk up the lips, have a refreshing minty touch and keep my lips comfortable! The colors aren't too dark or bright - but just add enough color and shine. Thanks Burt's Bees!

This line of fragrances are the BEST vanilla/gourmande scents ever. They have evoked the most compliments (from men and women) and surprising responses. I also mix this with the Vanille Extreme or Abricot. The vanilla scent is smooth and creamy, not fake at all. Simply delicious. This particular scent really in like condensed milk with a little vanilla. Its quite creamy and unusual...but soothing and almost powdery.

These are extremely pretty lashes that give eyes an extra glam look without being over the top. They are quite long and fluffy, so if you have smaller eyes, its important to trim and place them properly, or they can be a little much. But once you get that right, they really are lovely. I also recommend the Black Luxe lashes (be sure to use a clean mascara wand to "fluff" before wearing) for a similar but less fluffy look. :)

This is the best eyelash glue ever. It holds very well, doesn't require using a ton of product, doesn't rip off your eyelid/lashes during removal and doesn't damage your false lashes (which at $12-$20 a pop for Shu lashes is a must). I worked for Shu for about 3 years and have found this particular product to be superior. It is worth the extra $.
