This cleanser is great as long as you keep it OUT of your eyes. Don't wear eyeshadow or mascara and expect the cleanser to remove it; in fact, don't allow ANY cleanser to come near your eyes even when you are rinsing. AVEENO makes a better/safer cream cleanser for that purpose. Otherwise, the price, the fruit enzymes, and the availability are pluses. I just won't be buying it again because my eyes can't take it.

If you'd like some type of lip balm next to your bed that does NOT have color, this balm by NIVEA is a great choice. When you have removed all your make up for the evening, this tube of fragrance-free balm is convenient to use beside your bed. It moisturizes your lips without leaving behind color to stain your pillowcase. I think a tube of CHAPSTICK is just as good and lasts a little longer but the price is still good and you can pick it up at your nearest drugstore.

I'm a lipstick junkie. I love moisturizing lipsticks and I have several M.A.C., Clinique, and Estee Lauder lipsticks (Isn't it funny that they're all under the umbrella Estee Lauder?) because they're all moisturizing and they have fabulous varieties of colors. All of the positive reviews of this particular Clinique lipstick took me once again to the Clinique counter. I tried several colors that didn't look right on me but settled on a very nice reddish plum called AFTER PARTY. It felt creamy but solid enough to have the color stay put for many hours. It's a dark shade that is perfect for an evening out. The price is not drugstore cheap but it's not expensive either. And the quality is grand.

Some drugstore products make me react horribly.Always fearful of items placed on my face, I tried this powder to give me a finished look. I should have known that a Clinique product would be all right. I have this pressed powder in STAY NEUTRAL and it takes away shine from my forehead, makes my skin look naturally smooth, and although it is a Department Store item, it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

This lotion by Jergens felt ordinary. My body really dries out so I'm always on the lookout for an exceptional body moisturizer.I wasn't terribly excited with the results nor was I exuberant about the scent. The lotion did the job of eliminating any patchy, ashy spots and the scent was...not horrible but not wonderful, either. Luckily, the fragrance wasn't too strong or overpowering. It faded quickly I needed to reapply it though, to keep my hands and feet from cracking.For a drugstore lotion, I think it did the job for a reasonable price.

Frizz-Ease 3-Day Straight Semi-Permanent Smoothing and Straightening Spray
John Frieda 3-Day Straight
I have thick, wavy hair that is prone to frizz if the humidity is high. Not a hairspray user, or a special product (like a straightening product) user, I was expecting a strong smell being masked by an even stronger fragrance. I was wrong. All I could smell was a very faint hair product smell when I first misted it over my hair and even that disappeared quickly. Pleasantly surprised, I happily misted all of my wet hair (roughly 5 sprays) after my daily shower for almost a week, then promptly used my hair dryer as per instruction. If I had wanted my hair truly straightened, I could have also employed the use of an optional flat iron. But since I didn’t own such a device, the hair dryer would have to do. Aside from my very thick hair that wanted to hold onto its waves at my ends, the hair dryer was enough to keep the top third straight pretty easily, though .Results were soft, frizz-free, shiny, and straight; not stiff or crunchy. And it added a bit of shine to my hair. I can’t say I’d purchase it myself because it would add another step to my morning routine but I’d recommend it for those looking for soft, straight hair that has a healthy sheen

This lotion with monoi oil glides over your skin to leave it smooth and smelling like a day at the beack.It's quite fragrant so it could compete with your perfume if you'd like to wear it. Otherwise, the lotion-oil soaks in your skin nicely and begs you to rub it all over.

My heels crack during the summer because I walk barefoot on pavement. Heck, if I don't routinely scrub, buff, and moisturize my feet all year, I pay the price. I use one of the many Bath & Body Works scrubs on my feet in the shower, give myself a pedicure with a favorite polish on my toenails, moisturize, and put socks on. The peppermint feels cool and relaxing. I'm left with beautiful ,soft feet.

The smell of this lotion is disgustingly sweet. Yuck. When the saleswoman tested it on my hand, all i could think of were sugar cookies with powdered sugar and boxed cake mix. Since I honestly didn't want to smell like either, I didn't buy it.

After shaving your legs, this is a wonderful, thick, creamy moisturizer. For dry skin, it is one of the best. And with Bath & Body Works' many sales and deals, you can't beat the price.
