I was actually given this product for free when purchasing Renpure's shampoo and conditioner and was not expecting much since I've found most "Beach" or "Surf" sprays to be nothing more than salt water. One morning after showering I sprayed this on my combed, damp hair and let it dry naturally. Maybe an hour later, my hair had those crisp defined waves similar Jennifer Aniston's waves. I had to straighten the top before going out to get a more polished look but the waves were beautiful and didn't frizz as the day progressed. I'm truly impressed by this product and will buy another when I run out. The bottle is pretty big though and you do not need to se much to get the desired result so I do not foresee running out for some time. It's also much cheaper than other products making the same claim at a higher cost (bumble and bumble).

I'm suprised to see so many positive reactions to this brush. I found it to be only average in terms of picking up powder and in application. The bristles are soft and they certainly feel like good quality but I found that actual application pales in comparison to a sephora brand brush or even cvs' line Beauty Essentials. I did begin using this for liquid foundation application and that seemed to work much more efficiently, the drawback to that though is they are incredibly difficult to clean, Overall, I would not suggest buying this product.

While the bottle is stunning and the shade looks luminous within it, the product itself is alright. Most of the shades I've tried are very sheer and do not last long. The color is kind of underwhelming and frankly for the price, I'd suggest going with another gloss. I want to like this because the bottle is just so cool but It is really not worth the money.

I used this for one summer hoping to fade the scars from years of acne and essentially nothing about my skin changed. It goes one shiny and makes your skin look as though its glowing for about ten minutes until it fades and your skin tone is exactly the same as it was $40 ago.

I've tried many dried shampoos and loathed most of them. Tresemme's one actually made my hair look as though I poured canola oil onto it... very counterproductive. Not Your Mother's dry shampoo though is insanely good at giving your blowout an extra day (or two). It comes out white so you have to rub it in but it doesn't give you that powdery look you'd get with using baby powder. My one issue with it is that it makes hair a bit stiff, like the texture of hairsprayed hair, so I suggest styling before spraying this.

I struggled with acne for four years trying every product and every 'system' that supposedly left you blemish free to no avail until I finally tried this one. In one month, I wnet from having painful cystic acne all over my chin all the time to having none, As in zero. I religiously washed my face with the cleaser morning and night and used the acne fighting cream after each cleansing. I do not use the sunscreen becuase my makeup has spf already and with oily skin and I figure the less product on my face the better. I've tried proactive, murad, acnefree; you name it, I've tried it and this was the only thing that had a major impact.

I waited for months for sephora to get the color 'chelsea girls' back in stock to try what everyone was raving about. Upside: The color, chelsea girls at least, is flawless and the shine is amazing. It is the perfect low key tan gloss that does not make your lips dissapear like other skin colored shades. Downsides: It is sticky and can build up in the corners of your lips. It also is not longwear material. I'm not wild about the taste or smell of it either

Urban Decay De-Slick Oil Control Makeup Setting Spray
Do Not Spray face all over if you have Combination skin!
I made the mistake of following the bottle's direstions and spraying my entire face with this and while my t- zone was slightly less oily, patches of my skin that are more dry became flaky, itchy and my makeup foundation on those spots looked dare I say crusty. I was mortified when I realized how terrible my skin looked. I had to take all of my makeup off and start over. I wish I could say this product is at least good for oily patches but its mediocre and doesnt set your makeup at all. Really a dissapointment compared to urban decay's all nighter spray. BOTTOM LINE: I don't reccomend this product.

I was skeptical of this stuff claiming to keep your make-up on point from dusk til dawn but I'm continually impressed and will continue to buy it. Not only does it keep your foundation/concealer/brozer budge-proof but I've noticed in combination with urban decay's primer wand, your eye makeup will look flawless even after a long night of dancing. Another unexpected benefit is that if you overdid it on the powder or bronzer a spray of this can counter any cakiness you may have accidentely caused. The large bottle has lasted me over a year and I use it almost every morning on weekdays and weekend nights as well. My roomates are constantly knocking on my door for a spritz of it. This is a good makeup investment and as I said, the bottle seems neverending.

This powder beats out brands triple its price. I'd heard this was one of those drugstore staples and only recently gave it a try. This might be the last powder I buy. It goes on matte, stays put all day and does well with my oily skin. No gimmicks or special ingredients, this is a classic powder. I only gave it a 9 and not a 10 becuase the color selction is limited.
