it's really thick, which is odd for something with an spf of only 15. the texture makes it kind of harder to apply, you really have to rub it in. there's no fragrance, which is nice. my skin feels normal with it on, not too dry, not too greasy. it's just kinda "eh" for me. also, it contains parabens, which i'm trying to stay away from. i got a deluxe sample with a purchase, and i won't be purchasing the full size!

this stuff takes off waterproof mascara easily without needing to swipe the cotton ball a lot. i just let it sit on top of my closed eye and it does its thing. super gentle, doesn't sting my eyes like other removers i've tried. it does make some cleansers i've tried ineffective, b/c it's so greasy. after using it, when i go to wet my face, the small amount of the grease on my fingers prevents cleanser from foaming! i'm going to keep looking for eye make up removers that don't limit the kinds of cleanser i use...

i'm used to using the dual layered make up removers (the oily stuff). those work a lot better for the waterproof mascaras. these pads took it off, but it took more work. also, it STUNG my eyes unlike other eye make up removers. i have the travel size, which is great. small, portable, handy (don't need to take cotton balls with you). overall, i'd prefer other removers b/c they work better, but the travel friendly-ness is a major plus.

i don't understand. everyone seems to love all olay. i can't find a single olay item that does anything good for my skin. i tried this in the SPF version, and found it to be not at all moisturizing. left my skin feeling tight and flaky. i bought this thinking it might have been the SPF that kept it from penetrating. but the non-SPF version leaves my skin dry and flaky as well. i would think it's the retinal cream i'm using, but every other lotion i try works just fine, so it's gotta be the olay. my skin is combination, a little more on the dry side.

goes on smooth, not sticky, pretty shine. i have it in Artiste which gives my lips a nice soft pink. great for subtle everyday color. definitely not enough color for a night out. the tube is bigger than i was expecting, which makes it a decent price for the amount in my opinion.

super cheap, makes your lips look really pretty, great scents... overall really great lip gloss! only drawback is that it makes kissing a pain. not just sticky, it's like GLUE when other lips get involved!

not great for my skin. it sits on top of my skin and doesn't absorb all that well. makes my skin feel greasy. feels like my forehead is breaking out b/c of it.

i love that it's natural, i love that it's gentle, i LOVE the bottle (water can't get into the pump so it's good for showers). BUT, i think it's too gentle for me. if i wet my face after using an oily eye make up remover, the trace of oil on my hands prevents the cleanser from foaming up. the cleanser also doesn't wash off the make up remover from my face. it's annoying to have to wash my face 2 or 3 times to remove the make up remover. i'd say it's best to use in the morning when you're not wearing any make up to wash off.

getting this onto your brush is a little daunting. it's HARD. it takes a million swipes to get even a little on your brush. but, that staying power in the jar translates to your eyes! once on your eyes, it stays ALL DAY. i have it in WINE and it's a beautiful color. it's much cheaper than another gel eyeliner i have and it comes with its own brush which makes the price even better!

it goes on much easier than the cheaper version Jane has. i loved the creamy texture! the carbon is a pretty color too. unfortunately it doesn't have the staying power i get from the Jane eyeliner. after a couple of hours it's creasing and fading. i'm asian and my lid folds under, so there's a lot of friction. i wouldn't mind the higher price if it stayed like it's supposed to!
