These smooth sheets absorb excess oil pretty good, but I just cannot stand their strong scent. Absolutely awful. They smell like a citrus-based cleaning product. If you don't mind the strong scent, the 50 sheet for less than $6 is pretty good deal. I prefer non-fragrance blotting sheets.

I have been a fan of the original Davidoff Cool Water for a long time. I gave their newer perfume "Wave" a try last year. The wave has more exotic and fruity scent, it still has a clean fresh fragrance. Overall, I like the Wave, and this is appropriate as a daily perfume, but I slightly prefer the original Cool Water.

I am a big fan of Eucerin products (body lotion, hand and foot creme etc), but when it comes to sunscreen products, they are not my number one choice. Now summer is over, I wanted to try lower SPF lotion, and I thought this would be a great 2 for 1 (moisturizer & sunscreen) product. Although the label says fragrance-free, there is some subtle/light scent. It moisturizes my skin pretty good, but also leaves a little bit of sticky feelings for some time.

My husband usually does not care for which deodorant I buy for him. Some time ago I gave him the Body Shop's. He likes the clean fresh aroma and more importantly the level of odor protection. I asked him a constructive feedback, but he said he has anything negative to say about this deodorant.

I got the Lavender scent. The fragrance is a bit stronger than I hoped for. This hand wash lathers well and rinses quickly. Of course, this soap is not moisturizing, thus, I need hand lotion after washing with this. Although it seems to be gentle to use daily, but if you are sensitive to smells, I would recommend their "Go Naked" hand wash. By the way, I like their 12 oz teardrop-shaped bottle.

This deodorant works somewhat better in controlling wetness than some other deodrants do. I am happy that it keeps me dry for almost all day, but when I apply too much, it leaves white residue under the arms. Also worth noting is that I purchased an unscented one, but it does have a light scent to it.

I wanted to try a new peeling mask. This was the only "non-rinse-off" peel at Body Shop. Although it was a bit expensive (no, it was not $22 but $24), I bought it because the peel smells lovely like Satsuma orange. When I opened the tub, I saw that it was not full. I have used only twice so far, and more than the half of the tub is already gone. My skin feels smoother, but it lasts for a few hours. That's it. It does not help my skin firmness. Considering the size and non-lasting results, I would not buy this one again. I love Body Shop, but this one is not worth the money.

I recently finished the whole bottle. I used it faithfully because I wanted to make my teeth whiter. Now I see only a little noticeable whitening results. It is alcohol-free, thus, gave no burning feeling, but I still did not like the after-taste. I won't probably buy it again because of very minor improvement. This may be good for already white teeth and for maintaining them.

that my husband uses. He has tried several others, and his conculusion is that Johnson & Johnson Acuvue Contacts are the best. He likes them because they are convenient, maintenance free and comfortable. Also, they are so light that he even forgets that he are wearing them. But it is a bit more expensive than other brands. That's the only reason he does not want to give the perfect 10.

I would not mind a bit of burning feeling if this plumper actually makes my lips fuller. But I do not see any significant difference before/after. What I noticed is that it smells funky. It works just like a basic lipgloss, then, I rather buy a regular lipgloss. It makes my lips shiny, but also slightly pinker/more redish. Overall just unpleasant.
