I just purchased this for the first time yesterday when I got my haircut. My hairdresser used it before she started to blow-dry/straighten my hair and the end result was amazing! I have VERY thick, naturally curly hair and when I saw the size of the amount she pumped into her hand, I started laughing to myself (thinking that it wasn't NEARLY enough!). Well was I ever wrong!! She emulsified the product in her hands (by rubbing them vigorously) and then smoothed it through my hair and proceeded to blow-dry and then straight iron my hair. That saying "a little goes a LONG way" truly applies to this product. I was so happy with how my hair looked at the end that I bought this!! My hairdresser told me that it can be used on damp hair OR dry hair (it will smooth any frizzies or flyaways but keep in mind it's not a styling cream so it has no hold). I knew the true test would come when I had to use it (because I always feel that my hair looks a lot better when a professional does it) but surprisingly when I re-straightened my hair today, it came out exactly the way it did when my hairdresser did it!!!!! I paid $24 for the bottle (and I checked online when I got home and this is the actual price of it no matter where you go) but since you don't need a lot of it, I can see it lasting me a very long time! Everyone should try this out!!

I have the Posy Tint. (a different kind of BeneTint) It's a more pinky colored product and I love how it looks on my lips! It gives them a really natural color and the stain really lasts a long time. It's not like a bright barbie pink, so don't get scared when you pull the applicator out. It's a sheer pink and blends in nicely. I have worn it alone and also with a clear gloss on top and have gotten a ton of compliments. I don't know how much it goes for regularly because I purchased a Benefit Sample Box from Ulta (Finding Mr. Bright) but I would definitely buy the full-size bottle once I run out of the sample.

I literally just bought this moisturizer TONIGHT and since I'm such a child when it comes to new products, I tried it as soon as I got home! I followed the general pre-self tanning steps that are necessary to do before you start slathering on self-tanners (exfoliating, shaving and a light layer of lotion especially on and around the driest areas...knees, elbows, ankles) and once I finished with the pre-steps, I started applying this. I used latex gloves to apply it (mostly because I always end up with dark palms when I don't) and it went on sooo nicely!! It is a white lotion (that isn't drippy but also isn't super thick either) and has brown balls in it. It smelled pretty good too (considering most of the self-tanners I've tried smelled HORRIBLE!!). I let it dry completely as instructed (which honestly took less then 10 minutes) and then went about my night. About 20 minutes prior to me writing this review, I checked to see if there was any difference AND THERE WAS!!! I looked like I had gone to a tanning salon 2 or 3 times!! I am sooo impressed with this product and the tan I am getting from it that I immediately ran to my computer to write this review for everyone. If you're looking for a TAN (not orange), bronzed look and can afford to drop a whopping $8.99 on a color building moisturizing lotion that works within a couple hours of your first application, then look no further!!!!

I just recently used this product to color my hair and it was my first time trying it. It gave me a fabulous color that really did look like the color on the box AND my hair felt really healthy and soft afterwards. I've tried a few at-home coloring kits before and this one definitely takes the cake for me. It doesn't have that harsh, disgusting smell that most at-home coloring systems have so that right there was a huge plus for me. The conditioner that they provide for afterwards smells great and really worked wonders on my hair!! Since you don't need a lot of the conditioner, it can last about a month which is pretty awesome. At $7.49, I will definitely purchase this again!!!

This is really a great product that John Frieda came out with! The applicator is genius and really gets rid of any flyaways or frizzies that you might have. I just recently purchased the entire Full Repair line (shampoo, conditioner, Perfect Ends Sheer Mist, Deep Infusion, Protecting Root Lift Foam and this) and couldn't be happier with them all!!! It's very rare for me to like an entire line of products but these all work soo well for my hair. My hair is super thick and naturally curly and I color and straighten it often so it is severely damaged and dry. After one fully week of use of all the products, my hair is completely transformed!! I keep this product (touch up flyaway tamer) in my pocketbook because it's compact and my go-to for flyaways and frizzies on the go. I got this product on sale at CVS for $7.49 and it's regular price is $8.99 but for the results you really will be happy to pay this!!

I use these daily and I absolutely LOVE THEM!! They are great when you're on the go and don't have the time to wash your face and are SUPER convenient when I go tanning because I hate to tan with my make-up on and these are PERFECT!! I've never had any type of reaction to them either which is another huge plus in my book and they are reasonably priced too ($5.49 a package, 33 count). I think everyone should have a pack of these handy!

I love this lipgloss. It's super cute when you put it on and every flavor I've tried TASTES AMAZING!! I love buying lipglosses that not only look good, but taste good too. My only problem with this is the fact that you have to keep reapplying it. It doesn't have good staying power so you go through bottles quickly but for $2chane a pop, how can you resist? Also, if you don't like your lips to look shimmery/sparkly then definitely do not purchase this gloss.

This is one of my favorite concealers! It truly lives up to its name, "24 hour SuperStay". I use it daily under my eyes and on any blemishes that might pop up and it literally stays on allllll day!!! I love how it has the applicator wand with it because it really is one of the easiest to apply concealers I've tried. They have a great selection of colors too, so it's easy to find one to match your skin tone. And you can't beat the price either ($6.99)!!!

I use this foundation and love it!! Because it's a liquid mousse, it's little thicker then just a regular liquid foundation would be. It glides onto my skin and transforms my skin picture perfect. I will never use another liquid foundation after using this!! It's only $7.99 a bottle and since you don't need to apply a lot, it really lasts!! A staple for everyone's make-up bag in my book!!

I have been using this mascara for about a month now and I can't find anything wrong with it! It curls my lashes perfectly with the comb-like bristles it has and I never gets any clumps. Once I apply it I have these long, curled lashes and almost every day I am complimented on them. I've been asked on more than one occasion if I wear false lashes and I just laugh because I haven't the slightest clue how to use the fake lashes. I think that at $7.29 this is a great deal, especially with the awesome results I've had with it!!
