Because it is a great lotion for the price range, I don't feel so bad to use frequently. I recommend especially to kids who want to use lotions (you know, they usually take more than necessary..;)). But the lotion is not rich enough, I don't use it as my overnight body lotion.

I was afraid that this pencil could be too hard on my face, but it was not as hard as expected, and the light color blends easily to conceal spots and pimples. Nonetheless, this is not ideal for a large area, and it provides much less coverage than liquid concealers. It is easy to carry and gives no mess when apply, but this product should be considered as a pimple concealer, not wrinkles, sun damages or dark spots.

I like the price range and the color choices (my favorite is the number 790/chestnut. The conditioning balm is a bit sticky, and does not shine my lip as much as most lip gross does. I agree with many other reviewers, the color does not last 16 hours. I re-apply it as often as other lipcolor.

Because this is non-comedogenic, color/oil/fragrance free and fast absorbing, my husband uses it when his Nivea Men's lotion is out. But definitely not for everybody, it is a bit heavy for my skin (I have some acnes to take care of). According to him, the pump bottle is convenient to use, and it keeps his skin not so flaky and dry for all day long. That's all he needs. But I am sure that he does not mind anti-aging ingredients. By the way, the similar prodcut, Olay Total Effects "Touch of Sun" was a complete disappointment.

This is a good travel companion especially in the long air trips. It has menthol to cool off legs, and shea butter to give some moisture. Seems bit expensive when compared to regular foot creams/lotions, but defintely worth the money because I travel often. My minor complain is the tube. I have to tighten hard, otherwise, the cream sometimes oozes out.

Coppertone Sport Lotion was my first SPF 50 or higher sunblock. What I like about the product is I see no greasy residue. This is water-proof and sweat-proof, but when I sweat heavily, of course the lotion comes off. However, that's expected. It does not prevent from getting sunburn either, it just protect from harmful rays (I assume...). Just like many other products, this sunblock also does not last all day long. So don't forget to apply every 2-4 hours depending on your activity.

Cotton swabs have been well-known beauty secret as cosmetics application tools. I used to buy Johnson's Cotton Swabs or Q-tips, but I don't feel any difference when I use the brand name cotton swabs or the one from a dollar store. When I need to save some bucks, things that I throw away after one use is the first place to sacrifice. I have no problem with generic/non-brand cotton swabs.

After seeing their TV commercial, I was very skeptical about this product first. But it works. Last winter I had really itchy skin, and this thick and rich creme absorbed quickly and helped calming down my skin. The texture is too thick, so I don't use it as daily moisturizing lotion, but this is my weapon against winter itchy skin. Fragrance free is a big plus!

This is another great scrub from Clinique. It cools, refreshes skin, and removes flaky dead skin. I sometimes use it for my elbows and knees too....;) But my mom, who has sensitive skin, thinks that it is a little harsh.

John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Shine Release Volumizing Shampoo with Light Enhancers
So-so as volumizing shampoo
I tried both Shine Release Volumizing Shampoo with Light Enhancers, Chestnut to Espresso and Shine Release "Moisturizing" Shampoo with Light Enhancers. I did not feel or see any different result. My hair however did not feel volumized in the way that some other specialized shampoo product provide so I am not convinced as volumizing shampoo.
