We own several different scents of this candle - Vanilla, Eucalyptus Mint, Blackberry etc. I change a scent depending on my mood. I like some of their holiday collection too, and we tried "Frosted Cranberry" last year. It is sweet and a bit tangy. The scent lasts pretty long. What I like the most about this candle is that it comes with a lid. It is easier to gift wrap, and also it seals its scent when I don't use it. I also like the fact that there are always a few different scents on sale at BBW!

Biotherm Aquasource Non-Stop Oligo-Thermal Gel
Great for dry skin, not so great for my acne-prone skin
I bought a biotherm aquasource kit, along with the matching toner and washing gel. I usually avoid "gel" based moisturizer or lotion for my facial skin. This one was definitely a transparent gel, but it was not as sticky as I expected. A small dab hydrates entire skin for long hours. Thus, my mom loves this gel. I, for one, think that this moisturizer-gel is intended for dry skin since it is rich, and obviously it did not do any good on my breakouts and blemishes. One more thing I didn't find it attractive - the fragrance. I usually love ocean smell, but this gel smelled a bit harsh for me. Maybe it is just me.....

This tube does not just say wrinkle treatment, but it claims "deep" wrinkle treatment. My wrinkles around my mouth and eyes are getting deeper, I thought this could be a savior. The tube design is ideal just for targeted area. This cream is rich, so it would probably not be good for acne-prone skin. Indeed, the cream softens and smooths my skin....however, it does not plumps or fills my wrinkles. Thus, I am sad to report that I did not see any noticeable improvement. JUST FYI, I feel that all the Garnier Nutritioniste moisturizer or cream products have the same fragrance. If you don't like the scent of any Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew or Ultra-Lift product, you would probably not like the smell of this one.

This cleanser has a refreshing scent, it lathers very well with warm water, and my face feels clean after washing with it. But, seriously, that's I usually can get from any other cleanser. I even purchased and used other 2 Murad Acne Complex products (the Clarifying Toner and the Skin Perfecting Lotion) since I was suggested to get them for the best results. The Murad 3-step healed my existing acne, but it did not completely prevent new breakouts. I prefer Clinique 3-step Acne Solution products since I can get more for less money. This cleanser is not a bad product, but I feel the performance does not justify the price I paid for.

I have several spots on my face scarred from the acne I experienced in my youth. I have tried many products, but I have not found anything really effective. Even though this mark treatment did not work well on the old spots (which are much darker than my newer acne scars), it seemed to fade my newer reddish acne scars a bit. What I liked about this product is the price. I think I paid about $7. What I did not like about is that it made my skin a bit itchy due to the increased dryness. This may work better for oily skin since it dries out skin.

It depends on which ultimate clear product. Smooth Cashmere has too much overpowering and too obvious scent for me (it smells like laundry detergent). I like the scent of Cool Essentians (formerly aka Cool Moisture), which has a combination of cucumber and green tea. It keeps me dry as long as I don't run or workout. This is one of the affordable deodorants. You get what you pay for.

I have tried almost all the Dove deodorant products, and I like the Ultimate Clear product line. My favorite scent among them is Cool Essentials: Cucumer & Green Tea. The scent of the Smooth Cashmere reminds me of laundry detergent. Some people may like the fresh laundry scent, but I prefer fruity scent. The performance is prerry good for the price I pay. It keeps me dry unless I work out really hard, and it has not yet left any residue.

I tried many anti-humidity cremes, but this one works great. I have thick and unruly hair, and hot and humid weather makes it even harder to tame and maintain. This creme controls my frizz without making my hair look and feel greasy. It comes with UVA/UVB Protectors, therefore, I also use this creme when I spend a lot of time outside. It is a good thing because I was looking for a replacement since Redken discontinued its UV Rescue line.

I recommend this for dry, damaged and colored hair. I use it after Nexxus Therappe shampoo. It moisturizes and leave my hair soft, shiny and silky. The bottle says that it protects against damaging UV rays. That's a great plus for me especually in summer. What I dislike about this conditioner is the design of the bottle. Not only I cannot see how much is left, but also it is hard to squeeze out towards the end.

I felt the difference after using it one time. I have long thick and dry hair, and I believe that this conditioner made my hair more manageable and controllable. I use it with Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Breakage Defense Shampoo.
