I used this the first time I ever tried waxing so I thought it was just my inexperience that was the problem. After reading the reviews though I realized it wasn't my fault. This wax is impossible to work with, it has a really odd consistency and is really messy. It managed to remove so hairs but not close to all. I did the front of one leg and then moved to the next leg. I gave up on it completely when I looked at the leg I did first and saw how irritated my skin was. I know waxing causes some irritation but I knew this wasn't normal so I stopped. I tried to get the left over wax off my skin but it was completely stuck and my skin hurt so bad I couldn't even try to scrub or scratch it off. Basically I ended up with bright red, splotchy, and scaly skin (this lovely look lasted 2 days) that still had large patches of hair left over. I couldn't shave or wax again because I knew my skin just couldn't take it. Don't go near this stuff.

I miss these teeny razors so much. They are great, way better than a regular razor. I hope they bring these back!!!

I almost never wore lipstick before I bought this one. Other lipsticks never went on smoothly, were very drying, and the color selections are rarely appealing. This one goes on very smooth and didn't dry out my lips. I also bought the Corail In Love and it is a great color that is really easy to wear. The only flaw is that the color doesn't last too long, but honestly lipstick is one of the easiest things to touch up so it doesn't bother me much. I will be buying other shades eventually, they are a bit on the pricey side.

I was really disappointed with this product. I had read about how great oil cleansers are at removing make-up so I figured I would give this a try. First of all, I strongly agree with the other reviews, this stuff tastes terrible. I tried really hard to not get any in my mouth but it is completely impossible. I have never had that problem with a cleanser before. It also made my skin break out like crazy. I had read an article on this site saying that using an oil cleanser before my usual cleanser would help draw out oil and gunk and it would probably make my skin worse before it improved. I figured that all the new break outs were from that and if I just kept with it my skin would be better then ever. After two weeks of painful giant under the skin pimples (rarely got that kind before) developing on my chin and forehead, I gave up. For some reason the cleanser has also taken on a weird milkiness that it didn't have originally. I have accepted that good skincare costs more than I like to spend, but I really hate spending over $30 for something that not only didn't work, but made my skin significantly worse.

I like this toner more then I expected. It does have alcohol in it, which is one of those ingredients you are supposed to avoid, but this toner doesn't burn at all. It really seems to be helping keep my skin clear and less oily through out the day. It is really great for the summer, but I think it might be too harsh for the winter. The one thing I really don't like is the smell. The perfume smell is extremely strong, but thankfully fades really quickly. I love Lancome products but I really wish they would take the perfumes out of their cleansers and toners.

I love this moisturizer. I received a luxury sample of this in a gift bag and I was a bit nervous to use it. I figured it would be heavy and too rich for my skin like a lot of anti-aging moisturizers, but it wasn't at all. This is the first moisturizer I have used (and I have tried a lot of high end moisturizers) that hasn't clogged my pores at all. I am 24 so I have no idea if it lifts like it says it does. Only negative is that it doesn't sink in as quickly as some other moisturizers I have tried, but I can forgive this. Make up goes on really well over it as long as you wait a couple minutes after you put on the moisturizer.

I am pretty certain this product doesn't do everything it promises, but since I started using it my skin has improved. My skin is smoother and has a more even tone. The place I have seen the greatest improvement is my eye area. I have been putting off buying a new eye cream after purchasing one that really didn't work. I have been putting this serum under my eyes and my dark circles and puffiness have improved a lot. A little goes a long way, so the price doesn't bother me so much.

I really like this moisturizer. The gel formula goes on really light and sinks in quickly. It has a very light pleasant scent. This is one of the few moisturizers that I've tried that doesn't clog my pores. It also does minimize the look of my pores, on my nose especially, like it claims. The only thing I don't like is the packaging, which is hard to explain. I can't ever seem to get the right amount of product out and I can't tell how much I have left. The flawed packaging is totally worth it though.

This stuff did nothing for me. I was looking for a spot treatment that wouldn't over dry and irritate my skin like others did, and this one didn't have many harsh ingredients so I went with it. Unfortunately, it was pretty much useless to treat the little bit of acne I have on my chin. The main active ingredient in this is sulfur, it doesn't smell too strong when I put it on, but when I put it on before bed I noticed the next morning that my pillow reeked. I know sulfur treatments work for some people but not me. This treatment did dry quickly and clear, which I did appreciate.

I was excited about this cream. I have noticed the very beginning of a few fine lines around my eyes and I wanted to fix those up and prevent new ones. I haven't seen a difference in my fine lines after about a month and a half of use. I have seen a slight difference in my dark circles but it isn't very noticeable. I am hoping that it is helping prevent new lines because it does have retinol and all that good stuff. The texture of this cream is really nice and velvety, though.
