I usually stay away from hair styling wax, but this one changed my mind. As the name implies, this wax has a light and fluffy "whipped" consistency. It leaves my frizzy hair more manageable and bouncy without a greasy look, and makes easier to style and shape. The scent is very mild and pleasant. The pump is convenient than a jar, but the whole bottle looked half empty when I got it. Unfortunately my salon stopped carrying this item a while ago. I have to find another salon who sell them or order it online. Bummer.

It dries pretty fast but it is because one coat is very thin. I have to apply 3 coats to make the color even, thus, in the end it takes more time to finish than when I use a regular Opi. The color I bought "Cram for an Exam" was nice , but it does not last long. I have to retouch daily basis, which is my major complaint. You will definitely pay more for convenience. This is an innovative product, but the result is just mediocre. In conclusion, I still prefer their bottle nail polishes.

I got this a few years ago. I don't know if they still have the same style, but Goody always has Luxe Jewel collections. This design fit perfectly with my black dress that I wore to a holiday party. It works just like regular bobby slides, but naturally looks much more glamorous. Anyway, no one has to know it was less than $5...lol. I wish it was slightly bigger to hold more hair.

It came with Sanctuary Spa Overnight Body Renewal Bag. Unlike some of the mild sugar scrub, this exfoliating dead sea salts do not melt away too quickly. My skin feels so polished, and also feels nourished, thanks to sweet almond oil in it. I think one sachet is enough at least for 5 applications, depending on how much you use. Unfortunately, it has quite a strong perfumey smell, but I still love the exfoliating aspect. BTW, these scrubs are a bit more coarse than Clinique Exfoliating Cream so it may be a bit harsh for sensitive skin.

I bought this "Charm Necklace" last year for my young cousin after I saw it at a department store. Actually, I did not buy it because of the fragrance, but because of the design. I found it both cute and sexy. I also thought this makes a better gift than just a perfume bottle. She later wrote me how much she loves it One night, after leaving a night club filled with cigar/cigarette smoke, she used this solid perfume with her finger to apply lightly under her earlobes. She got the immediate compliment from other friends. She told me that this birthday gift was the best. Anyway, unfortunately, the solid perfume part is not very big. Anyway, if you are looking for a gift for early adult women, consider this one!

I started having fine and some deep wrinkles on the sides of my eyes and dark circles a few years ago. The first eye cream I bought was Clinique All About Eyes, but I was not too happy with the results. Ever since then, I have been shopping for a good eye cream/wrinkle treatment. Since I did not want to pay too much, I tried this Garnier eye cream next. For eye cream, I was surprised how light it was. It was almost like Garnier Anti-Sun-Damage Daily Moisturizer. That's right, I felt that this was more like moisturizer than eye cream. I felt some improvement in the dryness around my eyes, so the puffiness and dullness of my under eyes seemed to get better. but I can't say I see any improvement in my wrinkles. Not intensive enough for me. BTW, their fruity/flowery scent was another slight minus point for me.

Each single pad is soaked wet, and it is more than enough to remover nail color from all 10 fingers. My nails feel clean and smooth after using this. Unfortunately, it is much more expensive than my regular one .Thus, I only use these pads when I travel, and I keep one in my purse just in case. Very handy!

I prefer my body lotion to be unscented or lightly scented. But I don't mind this vanilla scent. Oh, yes, there are other vanilla scented lotions, but St Ives products are so affordable and easy to find. But the consistency is a little too light.

I have been using colgate total for a long time, but if I have to choose Crest toothpaste, this would be my choice. It has a strong refreshing minty flavor that lasts pretty good. My teeth feel clean. BUT I cannot say that it is effective as a whitening toothpaste. After one tube, I did not see any difference.

I did not know that philosophy makes lip balm with SPF until I saw my sis-in-laws using this. First I thought it was a lip gross because it gave her lips a little color. She gave me one after I asked her where she got it. This was great when I walked outside because it had SPF 20 and gave the healthy/natural color, but unfortunately, I was not a big fan of their fruity fragrance.
