This mascara worked alright, and priced right. It lengthened a bit, and I could remove it with a standard eye makeup remover, but nothing more. Oh yes, the one thing I noticed was that it sometimes made some of my eyelashes stick together. I don't know it was due to the brush or the formula.

I used this cream to get relief of insect bites. The tube is small, but all I need is just a dab since the cream is very concentrated. The relief was not as instant as I wanted it to be, but it worked certainly better after using it for 4-5applications in two days. I think Aveeno's another anti-itch cream, "Aveeno Calamine and Pramoxine HCl Cream" seems to work better for us.

Received this as a gift. These pads were like scrub pads soaked in toner. The pads were two sided. One with a smooth side, and the other one with a coarse side. The package said all-in-one cleanser, toner & moisturizer. They helped getting into pores, and gave my skin extra clean feeling. But my skin still needed a moisturizer afterward. Also, they did not do anything (neither positive nor negative) to my pimple problem. If I had a clear skin, I would have liked more. This jar contained 45 pads. It is too expensive for me to use one pad in the morning, another one at night. I appreciate that someone gave me this product, but I would not be buying a new one.

This Dream Mousse was on sale. I have tried cream blush only once or twice in the past when I was younger, and I wanted to try it again. Like the name suggests, the texture is light. The color that I purchased, 40 Soft Plum, is pretty, maybe a little bit more pinky than I wanted it to be. Anyway, it goes on smoothly, and I like a natural flush look that this blush gives my cheeks. Then, a few hours later, it is unnoticeable! Where does the color go? It blends with my foundation? I like the concept and the price, but I still prefer powder-based blush.

TRESemme Moisture Rich Conditioner
Just okay - not moisturizing enough for my dry/damaged/highlighted hair
Their matching shampoo was as moisturizing as I expected, so I thought this conditioner would do. Unfortunately, it was not exactly "Moisture Rich" for my hair. To be sure, the second time I left it in a full 5 minutes or more to see any difference, but my hair felt still just okay. It did not give similar results that Neutrogena triple moisture deep conditioner or Joico K-Pak conditioner make my hair feel. Just like their shampoo, it comes with a huge bottle and it is very cheap. If I had normal hair, I would have keep using it.

Wow, this bottle is big (32 oz!), and the price is unbeatable. I hate to be the one to give this an average rating, but I did not find anything special about this shampoo. It smelled good, it lathered okay, and my hair felt clean, but I needed an intensive conditioner or deep hair mask after washing with this shampoo because I did not feel my frizzy hair soft/smooth enough. This may be a good choice for those who have problem-free hair, are on a budget and don't often switch hair care products,

During dry winter months I have been switching Johnson's Baby Oil and Burt's Bees Apricot Baby Oil back and forth for years. Now I have one more product to add to my routine. First of all I love the scent of this Palmer's oil. It is sweet, but not too sweet. Secondly, it absorbs into my skin very quick as if my skin is very thirsty for this oil. Yes, this is oil, but it does not leave my skin sticky or greasy. My elbows and heels, especially, feel nice and smooth after using this. It says that it will reduce stretchmarks and help to even skin tone, but I don't see a huge difference yet. But I purchased this to hydrate my skin anyway. BTW, I did/do not use it for my face. I think this oil is lighter, thinner than Johnson's baby oil gel. The bottle and the application can be a bit messy job since it is a bit watery for moisturizing body oil. Regardless, I love how this stuff makes my body skin feel.

My regular size tweezerman tweezer still goes strong. I just don't want to carry it each time I travel because I don't want to lose this great tool. After reading fantastic reviews here (and also the mini was cheaper), I purchased their mini version last year. Although I like the bigger handle of the full size one, It grips onto whatever I tweeze as firm/precise as the original Tweezerman. Definitely travel friendly! Another winning item from Tweezerman!

My absolute favorite is Clinique Brow Shaper, which I cannot live without. But for drawing in tiny precise strokes, this Body Shop's pencil is great. The shade I picked, Brunette, gives natural looking eyebrows. I think the Clinique Brow Shaper (which is not a pencil) is better value for money since it lasts for a long long time, but this one is also a good deal for a good eyebrow pencil.

Oh wow, this bubble bath is awesome. Their lavender scent is soothing and strong, yet not overwhelming. It was expensive, but I definitely feel relaxed and pampered after having bath with this product. It leaves subtle lavender scent on my skin, and after using this forming bath the entire bathroom smells like a field filled with Lavender. I also love the classy elegant bottle design. I recommend this to any aromatic bubble bath fan.
