I am very impatient when it comes to nail drying and when I started reading about quick dry drops the first brand that came to mind was Essie. When I went to buy it they were sold out so I went for a different brand. The ones I tried worked so well I didn't even think to try Essie until they ran out. I grabbed the Essie ones this time and I am so disappointed. I wanted them to work so bad. They do reduce drying time I will give them that but it still takes a substantial time compared to the other brand I tried. And Essie costs more as well. I even tried the Essie drops with Essie nail polish and it still doesn't do enough to justify the purchase. I unfortunately will be exchanging these for the other brand.

I am addicted to doing my nails, it keeps my calm. And I change my nail polish at least once a week because of how calming it is for me to paint my nails. My problem? I am SUPER impatient. I usually buy quick dry nail polish which limits colors. I have tried every trick online to dry my nails quickly and they don't seem to make the process any quicker. I found this product on accident and decided to give it a shot. I was skeptical but man it is AMAZING!!! After putting my second coat on I wait about a min like the directions say, put 2 drops on my nails and make sure the whole nail is covered. If you watch closely you can see it coat your nail, so 2 drops is plenty and bam. One min later my nails are no longer tacky. I give it about 3-5 more min and it's completely dry. No joke. It's a perfect product to cut a ton of drying time out. The excess absorbs into your skin quickly and moisturizers your cuticles. I will for sure repurchase over and over. My nail polish kit will never be the same. I recommend this product to anyone specially if you are impatient like me. I tried it doing a friends 7 year old daughters nails and it was great. She didn't have to sit still for very long and her nails came out perfect. I cannot say enough great things about this product.

I almost feel like I can't fully review this product yet since I have only used it once. Most of the time when I review products I have used them a few times but with this product I already can see results and that is fabulous for the money. I have never used a product similar to this and the written directs are very cut and dry... To the point. I like that. It comes with an instructional DVD which I think is sort of annoying. I never want to watch those. Also, in the directions it says to use a toner after using the PMD but it only specifies their own brand toner which I found annoying. I used a tea tree toner and it worked perfectly fine. Anyway, the PMD is very simple to use for the most part. I only had a problem with around my nose I had to sort of pull at my nose to get it and some spots were just not working. It didnt burn or sting at all. My skin did get a little red after doing a pass but it only lasted maybe a minute. My skin is on the sensitive side right now so I was nervous about it but that quickly went away with the redness. My face is super smooth now! I use an exfoliant daily because my face gets dry and I have never had such soft skin. I don't have any small bumps or anything! My pores are a teeny bit smaller and some of the marks on my face have slightly lightened. My skin did have a really nice and natural luminous glow as well. I am going to keep using this product for at least a month to see how much more my skin improves but I would for sure recommend this if you have problem skin. I tried my Garnier BB cream after and it went on so much better and even looks better on my skin then it did before trying the PMD. My bf has worse skin then me and his face improved a lot after just one use. I am excited for the months to come using this product. The only reason I didn't give more stars is because I haven't given it enough time to do a full on decision as to what I think. I'll edit this review once I have a month or two under my belt.

I sweat, a ton! And it is super embarrassing not to mention hard to find a deodorant that does a good job and smells good. This deodorant is great! I am sweat free and it leaves a fresh, clean scent. I don't feel like I need to carry it around for the super hot days. It seriously leaves your underarms soft and smooth. It does sometimes leave white marks but that is only rarely and I cannot tell you why. I finally found my deodorant match with this line.

When I first started trying out primers I was skeptical and didn't want to spend a ton of money so I picked this up from Target and am amazed! Not only is it cheap ( I think it was $1 maybe $3) but it works just as well as the Too Faced shadow primer I have. Its not an overly sticky or greasy. Shadows last hours longer and it really gives your shadow an extra pop of color. Hands down a great buy specially for anyone skeptical of shadow primers

As I have previously said I am not one for a bold lip and I tend to stick primarily to lighter colors such as Maybelline Color Whisper. I was trying to step outside my box and get a more tinted lipstick and this is my favorite. Its a very smooth pigmented lip butter that doesn't wear off after what seems like seconds and the color selection is gorgeous. I chose "berry smoothie" because its close to my natural lip color but a bit darker. I tend to put a gloss on after lip stains/ lip sticks to add a bit of a shimmer but this one has the perfect mix of pigment and shimmer, it isn't over the top glittery but it isn't matte. My only complaint is unless applied a certain way it tends to sit in the crease but it isn't a deal breaker. When applied with a bit of primer and sheer powder its perfect. I will for sure be purchasing more colors

When it comes to lip products I am extremely picky. It took me awhile to wear anything more then a tinted chapstick. I am not very bold when it comes to lip color ( think deep reds) and this line is PERFECT!!! Its truly a whisper of color. The colors aren't too much but they are more then just a tint. My lips don't feel chapped or streaky and the color doesn't tend to wear off super quick like some drug store brands not labeled for long wear. My favorite shade is "petal rebel" its such a gorgeous bubble gum pink shade but not too over the top that I feel like a 14 year old ( no offense). I would definitely buy more shades!

It is extremely hard for me to buy perfume because its so expensive but it was well worth the buy! Its a strong but not over powering scent that lasts all day! Its a feminine floral scent that isn't overly sweet. The bottle is sleek and it doesn't seem to leak scent like some bottles tend to do. Also easy to find great gift sets which I am a huge fan of.

I am not a huge fan of Dove products, I just don't have good luck and it might just be me haha but this dry shampoo is my FAVORITE! I wish I could find a travel size to carry with me! The smell is amazing. It smells like I just got out of the shower every time I use it and it makes my hair look and even feel like I just showered. Its easy to work into your hair and even gives your hair volume! I mention this a ton in my reviews but I have psoriasis and its worst on my scalp making dry shampoos harder to find. Most leave my scalp itchy and flakey but this one has no effect on it whatsoever, which is a huge huge plus. I am usually in tears after trying multiple hair products since my psoriasis is so bad and makes great products unusable. If you accidentally get a bit too much on your hair it doesn't leave it feeling chalky or dry and it doesn't make your hair static-y like I have found a lot of dry shampoos do. Its a must have for between hair washing days for any hair type!

I LOVE this perfume. Scent wise it is my favorite. I feel so feminine every time I use the perfume. The bottle is cute and for a high end perfume I don't feel like its very expensive. I haven't had much luck finding good gift sets though which is disappointing. I also find it hard to keep the scent lasting all day. I don't care for overpowering strong perfumes because your scent shouldn't linger after you leave and enter before you but I like having an all day scent that I don't need to carry with me and reapply. I find it hard to smell within a few hours so for an 8 hour work day I find myself wanting to reapply. Other then the scent not lasting it is a very light feminine smell I find most people enjoy.
