I bummed some of this from step-mom. It smelled really yummy and scrubed nicely, didn't dry or irritate my skin. Expensive though.

It does wonders for length and darkening but not so much for volume. They really shouldn't call it a volumizing mascara. But i do really like it, makes my lashes super long, everyone noticed the difference. The kids i teach were like "wow i like your makeup today" and the mascara was the only thing i did different.

I bought this after reading rave reviews on here and i liked it for the first couple days, made my skin super soft, but i started breaking out so i took it back. i hated the fragrance too, it actually burned my nose. I don't often have sensitivities to fragrance so i think if you normally do this might kill you lol.

I like using this as a mask, i put it on right before my bath (on a clean face) and sit for twenty minutes before i wash it off. You could use this everyday and it wouldn't dry out your skin like most clays would. The first time i used this i was amazed at how different my skin looked (still am everytime i use it) my pores looked smaller, skin was smoother and this huge red zit on my cheek was light pink and practically gone (it was really red cause i had picked at it, shhhh our little secret). I found the best way to use this is wet your fingers on one hand and rub it on the bar to make a light paste on your fingers then apply to a damp face, keep wetting your fingers as the clay will absorb the moisture and it will become difficult to rub off. Keep it in a dry place (not the shower) to preserve it. Right now i use this every other day (everyday the week before my period because that's when my skin is most acne prone). My results are practically no more breakouts or irritation, less oil, smooth skin and smaller pores. You can barely tell i've used it so it's obvious this bar will last and last, very much worth the money. (Oh btw, i got mine on e-bay for super cheap)

the active ingedients in alot of antiperspirants are exactly the same and come in the same concentration so i'm not sure why this is considered stronger or "clinical strength", and why they would charge more for it. The scent is very strong (embarrassing when my bf comes to bed and we snuggle and he says, i see you put on deoderant tonight). It's strange that you put this on at night but it was effective either way (morning or evening). It irritates my skin after i shave though. I'm kinda on the fence with this one.

I'm always trying new products looking for the BEST, but i keep coming back to this little drugstore gem. The luminous part may throw you off if you've had bad experiences with "glowy" makeups making your breakouts stand out more but that's not the case with this powder. It gives a healthy sort of glow to your skin but is totally matte at the same time which is a godsend for my oil-slick of a face. Makes my face look airbrushed (my bf says my face looks super smooth and soft). It does contains mineral oil but i guess not enough to make you breakout cause i've never had a problem with it (and i've read that mineral oil actually doesn't make you breakout). The little puff it comes with applies it nicely or a brush is great too. I use light in the winter/spring and medium in the summer when i get tan. The translucent powder is perfect if you just want the matte effect without a little extra color coverage.

i hate that companies spread out beauty care into a whole regime so you have to buy more products. I've only used this around my eyes since that's the only place i've started getting wrinkles (morning and evening). In a few days i already had a dramatic difference and a couple weeks later wrinkles are non existant, even my milia (small white bumps under eyes) have started going away. makes my makeup go on smoother, isn't shiny, hasn't irritated my sensitive skin or eyes and hasn't made me breakout. i will definitely be trying this on the rest of my face when it becomes needed, so it will become a face/eye serum. in the meantime this bottle has lasted me forever, two months into use and the bottle is still practically full, totally worth the money.

I used to use this in the morning instead of a moisturizer during the hot months, it gives my skin all the moisture it needs and doesn't make me break out. It's actually pretty soothing which is nice cause i have sensitive skin.

The sales woman assured me this was suitable for sensitive skin. Three days later i had chemical burns on my cheeks and around my mouth. The skin around my eyes was dry and peeling, my face never looked so bad. To make things worse under all the red, burned, flaking skin i was breaking out too. I would give this product a negative number if i could.

this is good as an exfoliating treament, but i'd use something else to take off my makeup, couldn't use it near my eyes because of the little scrubbing beads.
