I bought this because like a lot of people, I'm trying to move away from more synthetic ingredients. This scrub is very moisturizing, which I like. It also smells lovely like fresh peaches. The only thing I would improve on is the granules which are large, and if you rub too hard, they scratch. Plus, it seems sometimes that there aren't enough granules to really get an effective scrub. Other than that, it certainly is pleasant. Skin always feels soft and bright after this.

I own a LOT of fragrances, often the result of impulse buys, or the latest trend in scents. This, on the other hand, is a fragrance SO SPECIAL, it has overtaken my previous "to die for" fragrance - Coco Chanel Mademoiselle. It's an unbelievably sexy spicy warm oriental experience. What I love most about it is the power of it - I spray it on once (usually at the Estee Lauder counter) and I can smell it all day. It lasts and lasts, and always makes me feel like a buxom sexy vixen, but in the good way. My husband loves it, and the funny thing is, I haven't even purchased it yet! It is a bit pricey but I'm waiting to use up some of my previous fragrances before I splurge on this, however it's always a treat when i sample it at the mall! :)

I actually bought this a few years ago from my Avon rep as a set with the body lotion. I have only just started using it (naught me) because I have a large fragrance collection, but I love this! It's a springy floral, but with lovely sweet hints of vanilla and cookies. VERY GIRLY, almost makes me feel like a teenager again. But not too juvenile. My husband likes it, and the bottle is very 50's, I believe this is now discontinued but if you find it, try it! The price (~$15) is a steal anyway!

I actually just finished and threw away my first lip smoothie i purchased a while ago and felt I'd write it's eulogy here, haha. I used the shade Rheubarbie, a lovely pink that would flatter anyone...first of all, the click pen design is very convenient, not messy. Secondly, it gives my lips great shine and color, and the shine remained for longer than I expected, compared to other glosses. I definitely would buy again, perhaps in a more provocative shade this time ;)

I am on my second bottle ever of this cleanser, has a pleasant scent, and is a lovely formula (literally - the gel glistens, haha) but I just wish it would foam up more, it does clean well though. And I have very few break outs when I am using this. I use this right now with Clinique's Dramatically different lotion and Super City Block 40. I have great skin everyday! (I believe in combining cheaper brands with more expensive brands if it works for you....especially with cleansers, the best cleansers I have ever used were all below $7, including this one!

I am a girl that always goes back to tinted moisturizer when I try other things, so I'm always willing to try every brand of tinted moisturizer there is. This one, though it comes in a nice large amount, isn't the best one I've tried. I am pleased with the color match - slightly darker than my complexion to give me a healthy dose of color. I would prefer the SPF to be higher however I understand that this is a concept that hasn't exactly reached makeup items widely (this one is SPF 20). But my main concern is that, I apply this over pre-moisturized skin, and a lot of times this doesn't go on smoothly, and globs up with my previous moisturizer which is something that hasn't happened in the past with other tinted moisturizers. I have tried applying this alone, however with my skin being dry, it tends to stick in places and is hard to spread, giving me a blotchy look. Overall, to wear this is better than nothing at all at least for the SPF, but I think I'll stick to my higher SPF lotion and preferred tinted moisturizer.

I like the idea of using one lovely smelling product for several jobs, and this is alright to use as a shower gel. Not so much for your hair. Firstly, if you're using this by yourself, it will last you over 7 months using it everyday, easy to get tired of it! But what I don't like most is that using it as a shampoo has made my hair VERY greasy after only 1 day. I noticed this immediately after I began shampooing. In other words, good price, cheap product. You're getting what you pay for.

I actually bought one of these in 2003, and I'm still using it! It's the perfect bronze hue for my fair skin, so I look healthy, not orange. Plus I have naturally rosy cheeks so I use this instead of blush to give myself a little sun. Love it!!! Plus it's pressed so it's easier to use than a loose powder which would provide too much product at once.

This is a basic gel cleanser, it did have little granules in it which helped to exfoliate, however it always left my eyes stinging (and I am always careful not to get it in my eyes) and also when I finished using this and switched to one of my staple cleansers, the spotty acne that i had been experiencing while on this cleanser went away. Don't think I'll purchase this again.
