This is a gentle cleanser that does a decent job removing eye makeup. The hardcore liquid eyeliner was a challenge, and took more than one pass. Still, it was a huge improvement over by regular cleansers.

Smooth, opaque and deep matte tone. It's a challenge to use, like all liquids. It lasts longer than pens--a lot longer. The price is on the high side, but thats relative I guess.

I've tried YSL lipsticks twice. The colors are pretty and the packaging is drool-worthy. The actual lipstick is a different story. The pros are the colors and luxuriously silky feel. I fell in love with how it felt. The cons are the look. It's too silky, in that the binder needs a rework. The application didn't self-level and looked uneven, which is a very bad thing with lighter-than-natural shades. This also means it skid on, then slid off. Zero lasting power. It's best with natural shades applied with a brush.

The smell is okay. The white eventually brushes out. (I have dark hair.) it's okay for a reset, getting the bedhead out. But it doesn't make my hair feel clean. It felt dirty, plus a bit dry and, well, crunchy. Not a great feeling. This makes it strictly for unavoidable emergencies. I'm glad I only bought a trial size.

I love the scent of lilacs, especially common lilac. It a gentle scent, not powdery, fresh and floral at the same time. This candle captures it, in good quality wax. Worth buying.

It helps my very dry skin look and feel better. Not greasy. No improvement in lines and texture after 3monhs, but my eyes and lips are less dry.

This moisturizes well and leaves my skin soft. It takes a long time to absorb, and it's a little greasy on my nose, even though my skin is extremely dry. It's definitely too heavy for summer, and I may have to go SPF only. The bottom line is that, even in winter, it's a good moisturizer. But not so good that I've stopped shopping.

It gave a bit of radiance, nothing dramatic. The moisturizing was good. But the stinging went on longer than I liked. I now have some more visible capillaries, instead of less, although any connection may be circumstantial. It also may that retinoids are wrong for me from any cream. Setting those issues aside, the performance was just "meh".

I had big hopes for this eyeliner, but it didn't work out. The color was good and the pigment was strong, but the delivery was bad. I've always been a liquid eyeliner girl, but I haven't had much luck with "pen" type systems, either eyeliners or highlighters. Same here. First, the initial use takes forever to get clicked out. Then the flow is too heavy on the next clicks, wasting too expensive pigment, then the pigment gets watery and finally runs out far too soon to justify the price. At the dregs, the binder dilutes the pigment, so it's more grey than black. The fact that it separates bothers me a bit at this price point.

It has a wonderful scent, my reason for buying it in the first place. It feels rich and creamy, but it doesn't moisturize my skin very well. I've actually noticed this with a number of Bliss products. Maybe they're better for normal and oily skin. But for my very dry skin, they seem like more hype than help.
