This is my favorite hand cream during dry winter. The texture is more like rich balm. A small pea sized dollop is all I need to moisture my entire hands because it spreads very well. Fragrance free is ideal for every day use and for men too. Since I use only a dab each time, the 2 ounce tube lasts very long. Great product!

B&BW's home fragrance oil makes me forget about fragrance candles. It has more intensive scent. After a hectic day, I highly recommend the Eucalyptus Spearmint. It is so soothing, refreshing and relaxing. This is safer than fragrance candles, especially around children. I am planning to try their fruity and flower-based fragrances too.

I bought this shampoo and matching conditioner without reading the description carefully. All I saw was "De-Frizz", but this product is actually for frizz-prone waves or curls. I have straight hair with frizz problem. I still wanted to try so I did not return it. The performance is just like any decent drugstore shampoo with afforable prices. My hair becomes soft, smooth and shiny, but what I dislike about this shampoo is that it leaves strange scent in my hair. Not too refreshing or clean scent but it is more like coming from old weak perfume. Also, the soft-smooth and shiny effects are not long lasting. BTW, I think now this Sunsilk line is called "Captivating Curls" so that someone like me would not think this is for any frizzy hair.

I could not resist the pocket size, and also the SPF is a nice touch. The color I choose (Glisten) is pretty sheer. Just the subtle color, I was hoping for the light and soothing texture. However, this is more like lip gel. It gives very good shine, but also a bit sticky. It does not easily spread. Overall, this is an average product.

The cost was more than the usual liquid hand soap, but I liked the simple but elegant design of the bottle. It is good for a guest bathroom. But I should have bought another fragrance. I got the "Fresh Linen" scent, which smells a bit like a dish washer detergent. Although the soap cleaned my hands well without over drying, the smell was just a little distracting.

This lotion was supposed to be for nighttime use, but the scent was too strong for me to relax. It moisturized my dry skin just like other Dove body lotions, but due to the overpowering scent, it was not very calming. Well, this body lotion seems to be discontinued, but I won't be missing this lotion for sure.

I love Burt's Bees products, especially their honey fragrance. I wish honey is the dominant scent fot this hand creme, but it smells a mixture of too many different items. As a result, it smells a bit strong and unnatural. As for the performance, it keeps hands soft and moisturized. This yellow creme is not as thick as balm, but richer than hand lotion. It is a bit expensive for a everyday use hand creme.

It has not only lovely sweet scent, but works well against dry lips. It is lighter than Burt's Bees beeswax lip balm, which is my absolute favorite. I prefer the beewax one because it is more soothing/tingly and longer lasting. Still this one is pretty good too, especially for people with more sensitive lips, I think honey lip balm is more suitable.

I like the mild relaxing scent of this soap because it indeed relaxes my senses before going to bed. Unfortunately, the soap is moisturizing to itself so it melts away/disappear quickly if it is left on a wet area. Anyway, I cannot find this soap anymore. I think it is discontinued now. I like the Dove products in general, but unfortunately they often discontinue good products as soon as I started liking them.

I thought this body wash to be another decent body wash since it was pretty inexpensive. But I was pleasantly surprised with the performance. First I was a bit skeptical of the purple color and the intensive flower-based scent. But once applied, it lathered up outstandingly well. The foam did not go away as quick as other cheap body wash products. Then, the scent became relaxing, not too overpowering. It left my skin smooth, no greasy feeling. I definitely got more thant what I paid for. For those who don't mind strong flowery fragrance, this is a great body wash.
