I needed a new eyebrow powder. My hairstylist suggested one by Clinique. I went out and bought it, then came across this product a week later. The Clinique powder was fine (although not dark enough for me) but this product is amazing, and at only $3! It can easily compete with a department store or prestige product. I don't know how ELF stays in business but my budget thanks them!

A coworker turned me on to this fragrance. It is absolutely yummy and I rarely (if at all) come across someone who doesn't like this fragrance. It reminds me of sweet cotton candy and even though it is a youthful fragrance, I wouldn't say it is "young." I am in my early thirties and love it. As a side note, I wasn't expecting the hair perfume to be as strong as it is and I ended up using it to spray my sheets before bedtime. Now I can have dreams of cotton candy!

For the ladies that love natural nails, this is a great buffer. When I am in a hurry and don't have time for a polish change, I just give my nails a quick swipe of polish remover, smoothe any rough spots and give it a quick buff. In less than 3 minutes, I look "polished" (pun unintended I swear!) and presentable.

This antiperspirant is really not good. The smell is not pleasant and it does not keep odor or moisture away. There is only 8% antiperspirant properties versus a typical antiperspirant that is 14-20%. It also leaves white marks. I hate to waste things so I found a few creative ideas! I used it as a cooling spray on my sheets for those 80 degree summer nights. I also used it as a shoe deodorizer and as a deodorant foot spray. I may not have been able to use it for its purpose but it worked out anyway. :)

I bought this device sbout 5 months ago and am so thrilled I did! This was a true \"investment\" that was well worth the money. I was diagnosed with PCOS several years back and have spent literally thousands of dollars on hair removal packages. This handy little device is JUST as good and keeps me from having to sell my firstborn to pay for all those packages! I have used it so far on my face and calves and it has made such a HUGE difference. By summer, my legs will be sitting pretty. There are 5 settings on this and each cartridge has 1000 pulses. For larger areas, I had to replace the cartridge after 2 months and each cartridge is between $30-$50 depending on where you buy it. Also, this is the ONLY FDA approved hair removal device. Definitely a must have; you will not be sorry!

I reveived a sample of this to review. Please keep in mind that I am not much of a perfume kind of girl! :) My standby is Michael by Michael Kors, and I have difficulty finding fragrances that I truly like. Perfume is a bit heavier than I typically like. Anywho, I found this fragrance to be feminine and pleasant. The bottle was attractive and eye catching. I did not smell a xmas tree that some have mentioned, but rather a clean, floral medley with a hint of citrus. It was nice, but I did not love it enough to purchase. If you like other fragrances by Versace you might like this one!

I have started to fall in love with NYX products but this concealer is an exception. First off, it is very inexpensive (under $5) which is a plus. It is a heavier concealer which csn be both good and bad depending on what you need to cover. It comes in many different colors including a lavender, yellow and green to correct a variety of skin challenges. However, it creased very badly under my eyes. As a result, I wwouldn't use for the under eye area. I did use it on a blemish I had and it covered quite well. Unfortunately, I probably will not purchase again as I needed a concealer specifically for the eye area. Also, due to the heaviness of the product it made it challenging to blend.

I received a travel size of this with a gift with purchase. It is not oily or greasy, but refreshing and cool. My am moisturizer has a SPF in it and I will spritz this on days that I am not leaving the house right away. I also liked another reviewer's suggestion to put in the refrigerator for those hot, summer days! It is cooling and refreshing with light moisturizing properties. As much as I do like this product, I think it is expensive and probably will stick with the Evian mister or just plain ol' water. :) But if it is in your budget, go for it! It would be perfect for travel or on the go. Even the full size version fits well in most any purse. It does not cause breakouts, is non-irritating and will sooth even the most sensitive skin.

I purchased a shampoo from Loreal that dried my hair out horribly and left it looking like straw with flyaways. I ran to the store to find something to put the moisture back in my hair. This was it! I have always struggled with drugstore shampoos; in the back of my mind I think that the higher end brands are of better quality and after this experience, I know that is not the case at all. This shampoo is so luxurious and creamy with a subtle coconut smell. It immediately left my parched hair moisturized. After this experience, I have no reason to ever by high end again.

This is quite possibly my favorite brush ever! The bristles are dense, soft and there is no shedding. Although ELF does make a separate Powder Brush, this could easily be used for powder, bronzer, blush and even applying highliter or bronzer on your body. It is extremely versatile and at only $3 it is a steal of a deal and a must have! (As a sidenote, I did not notice a plasticky odor as some have stated, but their cases do tend to have this odor when first opened.)
