After receiving this product to review I assumed it would be the typical thick, gooey night cream that so many brands put out. I was wrong there! This cream is light and applies well. No heavy globs or oily, greasy feeling afterward. I have combination skin so my next concern was how it would manage to moisturize the drier areas without leaving me too oily in other areas. I think this night cream was a decent balance there as I never woke up too "glowy" or too dry really. Obviously I can't attest to its anti aging properties as I have only used it for a week or two. One thing that I did not like is the heavy fragrance, it smelled nice but the scent was really strong which may bother some people. Overall I think this is a good drugstore moisturizer but I do not think that I will purchase it myself when this tub runs out as I think there are better options out there.

I am not a fan of Clinique's clarifying lotions in general but I tried this one due to the absence of alcohol and I really liked it. I have to say that even though I have acne prone skin and this is allegedly for dry skin it has never caused me any problems. Very gentle on the skin with no stinging, feels like water going on. The only toner I have consistently repurchased and for me that is saying a lot.

I use this when I feel the need to purge my skin. When my face is breaking out and overly oily this toner dries it up and helps with blemishes. I cannot use it consistently though because of all the alcohol, it can be too drying for me if used every day. I do not think it could be very gentle becase of the high alcohol content and it tends to sting at times.

I was intrigued by this lotion as the main reason I slack on applying lotion is because it can be too time consuming when I am in a hurry. This lotion makes application super easy! I really enjoyed using this lotion and will definitely purchase it in the future. The lotion applied smoothly without being sticky and the sprayer never got clogged, which was what I was expecting. The lotion was light, smelled nicely and I was even able to do my back without help or contorting myself due to the consistent spray. The only two things that kept me from giving it ten stars is that it can be a bit shocking when the lotion hits you as it can be cold after being stored in a metal can (I placed mine on the sink instead of in the cabinet and it wasn't as cold the next use) and it really isn't for winter use on my skin because it is very light weight. Otherwise it's great and I hope there will be other formulas/scents to buy!

I received this product for review but I have to say that I already had some at home, including the smaller lip balm version. I really like Vaseline Original because it is so multi purpose. I use it as a lip balm and it keeps my lips frpm getting dry and cracked. It is also soothing when my lips are chapped. It is a good barrier cream/ointment for small scratches or abrasionsalso. Vaseline can be used to remove stubborn eye make up and it leaves your skin feeling soft. I also like to use Vaseline on my hands and feet when they are really dry as it holds in moisture so well. This is a great product that has so many uses and the price is definitely low!

I received this product to review and after using it I feel that it does the job. This lotion was moisturizing, not gloppy and absorbed well. Fragrance free yes, but not scent free (as those two things are not the same). I did not like the scent, it reminded me of the sports cream I use after a race. I applied the lotion after bathing at night and it did sink in well, no sticky residue, and left me with soft skin that lasted into the next day. I gave it 7 stars because the lotion was moisturizing and absorbed nicely but the scent wasn't to my liking.

The Victoria's Secret scrubs are some of my favorite body scrubs. They smell so good and do a great job of exfoliating without being too harsh on my skin. I use the Amber Romance scent a lot and the fragrance lasts for a long time after I get out of the shower. My skin is very soft and smooth when I use these scrubs regularly and they do not irritate at all. Due to the hydration they provide I like to self tan after using them so there are no dry spots on knees, elbows or feet and I don't have to apply a separate lotion on those areas first. They can be a bit expensive but if you watch for sales you can get them at great prices if you buy multiple tubes at once.

Amazing Grace is a clean fragrance that isn't overpowering or harsh. I really like how it doesn't follow you through the room as some heavier perfumes do. This one just smells clean and light and dries down nicely. My one problem with it is there is no lasting power. The scent is gone before the day ends, reminding me of a body splash and not a perfume/EDT. Otherwise, very nice and feminine.

I have fair skin and use this bronzer (the golden one with a bit of shimmer). I really like how well it performs and the fact that I do not suffer any breakouts when I use it. The color is nice and is buildable. I do not like how it can turn a bit orange on me if I use too much (guess I shouldn't use too much)! I have had the same one for a couple of years and still haven't hit pan despite a lot of use in the summer months. All in all it is a good bronzer and I will probably buy it again when this one runs out, if it ever does!

I love this fragrance and everytime I put it on I just think "mmmmmm, it smells so good!" Light, clean, fresh and just plain nice. I wear it often which is saying a lot because I have dozens of fragrances (yes I have a problem/addiction). I purchased this scent right after it came out, about a year or so ago I think, and I have already made a good dent in the bottle's contents due to my frequency of use. It also pairs well with the lotion which doesn't always happen as sometimes the fragrance doesn't translate well into body creams and lotions. On me, this scent lasts all day long and doesn't dry down to an off odor or weird fragrance. I love it and my husband likes it too!
