I love Sunblock products by Neutrogena, and I use the SPF 55 much more often. I like it because it does not leave any greasy feeling on my skin. But don't forget to re-apply after you sweat or swim. There are much more expensive sunblock available, but this is worth the purchase price.

It freshened my breath, but that was pretty much it. Thank God, it did not add brown stain my teeth. It did not give me a burning feeling, but it left a little weird aftertaste for a while. Since I am used to the intensity of Listerine, I did not feel as clean and refreshed as when I use Listerine. If the price range of Pro-Health was lower, I would may have kept buying it. But since it is not, I went right back to Listerine.

I used to use an inexpensive tweezer because I thought a tweezer is a tweezer. Wrong! Ever since I got this one, I cannot go back to any other tweezer. My old one sometimes did not grip the hair firm enough, and when it does, it snapped the hair off instead of removing it. Tweezerman's Tweezer firmly and precisely grips and never pinch my skin. It was much more expensive than others, but I don't regret this investment.

I used to use this face wash to prevent/heal acne when I was a teen. It worked pretty good back then (FYI, I also used several other acne prevention products at the same time together with this power-foam wash). When I was a late-20s, I tried this again for my adult acne problem. I used it morning and night. The pump produced a good amount of foam, it gave me a cooling and tingly sensation, and my face felt cleaned without any irritation or over-dryness (but a good moisturizer is a must afterward). Unfortunately, I did not see an improvement on my pimples or breakouts.

When I saw this new line of Vaseline body lotion, I could not resist to try one. "Sheer" can go either good or bad. In this lotion's case, I would not call it "sheer" because it is slightly heavy and sticky. Although the package says "moisture across all layers of skin", it is no more moisturizing than many other body lotions. I purchased only "Vitamin Burst" due to the fruitier scent (other Sheer Infusions had more flowery scents, which I usually avoid). Even then, I wish Vitamin Burst' scent could have been milder/less obvious. Compared to some other Vaseline lotions, the performance of this body lotion seems to be inferior or no different.

Overall it was easy to apply, except towards the roots. The applicator/double-sided comb did not help too much to separate hair and go closer to my scalp. I ended up using fingers to separate hair. In the end, I got decent highlighted hair. I wish the results were a little bit lighter, but maybe that was due to my dark brown hair. At least the process was simple (except separating hair) and fast, and the mixed creme was thick so it did not drip. Fortunately, it did not look like damaged my hair. Since it was not too expensive at all, the results were acceptable.

I was looking for a multitasking product for my travel amenities. The ULTA smoothies (Berrylicious) smelled really good, and it created nice bubbles as a bubble bath. But I did not like it as shampoo. It cleansed my hair well, but it also dried my hair. My hair is color treated and I swim often, and after washing with this shampoo, my hair color looked a bit duller than usual. And I have to be careful choosing a conditioner because Berrylicious has quite strong and dominant scent. The travel size bottle was affordable and convenient, but I stopped using it as shampoo.

I usually buy a bag of generic brands or Revlon/Covergirl makeup sponges, but one day I saw these sponge wedges in a neat plastic case at a Sephora store and since it was not outrageously expensive, I got one. The sponges were smaller than my regular ones. Even though I paid a few extra dollars more than my regular sponges, I was a bit surprised at their light density, and the sponges absorbed my liquid foundation more than desired. I wish they were bigger and thicker. I love Sephora's makeup tools, but I would not buy this one again.

I bought this Tahitian Renewal when I could not find "Moroccan Body Wash", which seems to discontinued. This body wash smells sweeter than when I sniffed it in the store. The consistency is much similar to their "Evenly Gorgeous Exfoliating Body Wash", it comes with the exfoliating beads. It does not lather too much, and it is not very moisturizing either, so I may like it better in summer. The sweet fragrance may be more appealing to younger people. Unfortunately this is not my favorite Caress body wash scent. I miss Caress Moroccan Body Wash.

I own only one color "Cozy Mauve", which has very warm pink/violet color. It is moisturizing and creamy that it covers my fine lines on lips. Unfortunately, the staying power could be better. Each time I drink, I can see a lip stain on my mug. Since it was affordable, I may get another color.
