This product was a waste of money for me. I bought it because I've noticed Glycolic Acid works better for me and my super oily skin and because it was aimed at those with brown skin and in hopes it would help with my blackheads. It didn't work for me. I noticed more breakouts than before I started using it so I had to stop immediately. My skin went haywire not long after I stopped. The product is lightweight and absorbs fast but it just didn't comply with my skin.

I like this gloss better than Mac's original gloss just because I prefer a non sticky gloss to the sticky glosses. They come out really shiny and shimmery. The texture is light and smooth and I LOVE that the applicator is a brush not a sponge. This is more smooth than lipglass. It is lighter than the original though. The colors are pretty sheer, but still pretty and workable. They don't have a large assortment of colors and I wish they'd get on that. I love this gloss.

...that is perfect for eyeshadows. Affordable; one pot lasts a while; blends good; Helps give a nice pop to the eyes and stops your shadows from creasing while making the color last until you take it off for the night. I have learned that you need a good base for eyeshadows or else they well fade, crease, bleed, smear or all of the above and this is a perfect base to control all of that.. LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM!

What more can you ask for? A wide variety of great colors, great and different textures/finishes to match your fancy and an affordable price. I hate the fact that there are lipsticks at 25 bucks or more and you get the same pay off for much less. This is excellent quality for the price. My favorite finish is the Amplified Cream because the texture is so creamy and the color is really pigmented. It just Glides on. Lustre finishes are awesome too for those who like the sheer lipsticks. There is just so much to choose from. Plus the back to Mac program is an incentive.

I love this for setting my foundation. It's light and makes the skin look so smooth and natural. I was amazed when the artist used this on me and I saw a huge difference between this and using foundation alone. I like using this better than using a power foundation because it's light.

Love this stuff. It doesn't fade, goes on easy with an angled brush and there is a nice variety to choose from. Smooth texture. And I like it because it can also be used as a base under eyeshadows. Great buy

I primarily use this for cleaning up mistakes I make when doing the eyes(liners, shadow residue etc). Dip your q-tip and clean your mistakes. Two things I have issues with- 1) it's really oily and I don't like adding any extra oil to my skin. 2) Using too much in one setting can irritate my lids, so use gently. But other than that it gets everything off without a problem; eye shadow, all mascaras, liners.

I have oily skin so I don't use Moisturizer very often. However sometimes my skin feels a little dry and ashy so I need something that won't clog my pores and make me look oily. Tried a sample of this stuff and it was pretty good. Not heavy; lightweight moisturizer; absorbs fast; doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy and oily; didn't clog pores and throughout the day I don't notice much oil on my skin. It's a good balance I think.

I can't say anything bad about Philosophy scrubs. My first was a coconut scrub but it was discontinued(i guess to make way for the new coconut frosting one) and I was a little PO'ed by that. But I tired the Sugar Plum Fairy scent and OMG! I love the smell. It's like cherries and fruit punch. The scrub feels so good on the skin and gets rid of all that rough skin. After my skin and my hands feel so soft. Not greasy, so you don't have to worry about slipping in the tub (I HATE that) but it does leave your skin feeling moisturized. A great buy

I used to be all about Apricot scrubs. I lived by them because i didn't break out that often and i would scrub and scrub and my skin would feel clean and fresh. I didn't mind that my skin actually HURT after using it. Now from using different scrubs I notice this stuff isn't so good for your skin. It's way too hard and harsh, which can damage and scratch your skin. There are plenty of scrubs that are more gentle but not too soft, and it won't feel as good as this but it will get that get that dead skin off and exfoliate. My skin is looking better since I stopped using this stuff. It only FEELS like its helping because its so coarse but in the long run its not. It would be perfect I think, if the scrub wasn't so hard.
