I tried the deep golden brown shade ( I think is what it was called) and I love the result. The color is really pretty and shiny. In the sun it has a few different colors within the deep brown. Its hard to explain but it kind of has both golden brown and almost auburn shine in addition to the basic brown color. I am very happy with the end result. I also really like that dye comes with a large portion of conditioner compared to other box dyes I have tried.

I have light on borderline fair skin so self tanning is scary since I don't want to look orange. I like this Jergens lotion because its subtle and looks natural. It doesn't turn your skin orange with repeated use and it doesn't bleed all over everything. Its even safe to put white clothes on within 15 min of applying. It does have a faint chemically self tanner smell but its not overwhelming. It also moisturized very well. I mix a bit of baby oil in because I have pretty dry legs and it doesn't take away from the color. Repeated use does give a very nice even color and its very hard to get streaks since the change is so subtle

Ever since I started using face products I have been using this product. I have combo skin with the worst issues around my nose. It keeps my skin from peeling. As with similar products I recommend gently massaging on your skin focusing more on problem areas. Gentle! I have tried different products but I always fall back on this product because it works and its not too harsh on your skin

I was very hesitant to start wearing foundations specially powdered ones and I went to a department store and bounced around the counters trying different products. It matches my skin tone perfectly and when used the way BM recommends ( tap and swirl method) it has great coverage which is buildable. I will say that as stated by previous reviewers it does settle into creased. This issue was very quickly and easily resolved with primer not just BM primer but most every primer I tried ( see Almay review for the reason I say MOST). I highly recommend going to a BM store to learn how to properly apply it and get color matched, I had the best luck in the store and got better advice then I got from the makeup counter in the department store

Honestly one of my favorite drug store products I own and it smells sooooo good. I like the way it illuminates my skin and gives me a really nice glow. I use a translucent powder over it and it stays on ALL day. Another great perk is that its buildable. The coverage is sheer as are most BB creams but you can build the coverage in more problem areas like around your nose. It blends really well. One problem I personally haven't experienced but noticed is its only available in I think 3 shades. For someone with fair skin or a darker complexion they wouldn't have the option to try it. Also some inbetween skin tones might have to mix 2 different shades but I think its worth the money and works very well. I wouldn't recommend it for someone with a lot of redness or who needs a heavier coverage but for a light coverage its awesome

I have had a bottle for what seems like a lifetime. I have thick and frizzy hair and it makes my hair so soft and shiny and fights the frizz. My hair gets greasy extremely easy specially with a lot of similar products but I have never looked greasy when I use it. The smell is AMAZING and it doesn't take more then a dime size drop for my long thick hair to look and feel great. Another plus is you can find it very easily I don't feel like I have to make a special trip to a store just to find it.

I love OPI. My Mom got me hooked on it. I have never gotten a polish I didn't like. Its not too watery, goopy or thin and lasts so long. Definitely a brand I go to when I want something new. My only complaint is that I have to go to Ulta every time I want to see what colors they have. I usually go to the store late at night so stores that are open 24/7 don't carry it. I am also pretty hard on my hands and it takes a lot to chip so I don't feel like I have to reapply it every other day. It doesn't take forever to dry either. Love the stuff.

The only reason I wont give this stuff a 10 is because they discontinued my favorite one, orange pop I think is what it was called? I have used it since I was little. Its great for your lips and smells good. Its even a good base chapstick for glosses or lipstick if you don't over apply it. I always have a stick in my purse

Alright primer. Its awesome and keeping my foundation in place and limiting creasing but I feel like I have tried better and cheaper foundations. I didn't feel like it evened out my skin tone and it felt really silicone which was a weird feeling. I use it from time to time in different ways to see if I can get more out of it but I have definitely tried better products that even my skin out better

I love Almay. For drugstore products they are so nice. Except for this primer. It feels like a lotion and has a weird color when all mixed together. The purple and green swirls are supposed to reduce discoloration on your skin and it didn't do anything for redness. It looked like I had just put face lotion on. It didn't do anything for my foundation, it was like I never applied primer. I have large pores around my nose which is why I like primer but it did nothing to even out the look of my skin. In the end it was just an over hyped face lotion. I will give the product that however it moisturized my skin but that's about it.
