This is my favorite Christmas candle. I always stock up on this and Cinnamon Stick. Yum! This is very true to scent.

I never thought I would like a cookie smell for the holidays, but now it has become a staple. I usually like a spicier fragrance that time of year, but this is a definite holiday must have.

This fragrance is absolutely amazing and the interesting thing about it is that I have never seen it duplicated. It is a very original fragrance and smells divine. I love buying my Yankees at Bed Bath & Beyond when they have 25% off fragrance of the month plus a coupon! Such a great deal for such a true fragrance.

I love Yankee candles, even more than Slatkin and I am a fragrance FREAK. Along with Pumpkin Pie and Christmas Wreath, this is one of my favorite fragrances. It makes my home so cozy and inviting

That is exactly what this is. Don't expect shine, long lasting moisture, or healing for chapped lips. It may look like a lip balm but it isn't. It would be best used during your nightime beauty routine. I would apply it to my lips and also the skin around them. It tends to have an off taste and is quite perfumey, but not bad.

My mom loves this lip balm but its not for me. It's not long lasting, the shine is a little too muted (especially for a product that is advertising the shine), and there's not enough moisture. Plus there's a bit of a taste and smell that is off.

Admittedly, there are better options out there in the same price range. However, CG is really accessible, almost always on sale and offer coupons. The colors look beautiful in the pallette but they tend to crease badly, are not long lasting and the pigment is not good enough. However, whenever I am in the mood to try different colors and experiment, this budget product allows me to do just that.

This is my first eyeshadow primer so I really don't have anything to compare it to. I agree with some of the other reviewers. It did make my eyeshadow more intense, but ironically, the decreaser can crease! That's before the shadow is even on. I just reblend it and add some powder to set, then apply my eyeshadow. It's not bad though. When I couple it with a higher end shadow, I can usually get through the day without creases, but with a lower end brand, Cover Girl in particular, I almost always crease halfway through the day. I also think its a bit pricey. I believe I paid around $10 at Walmart for not much product. I'm going to try to find one that works better and costs less. Wish me luck!

But I love it anyway! Whenever I think of Estee Lauder I think of my mom and grandma. Every time my mom buys the gift with purchase, she always gives me the lip glosses and these are just fabulous. Admittedly, I would never buy them myself; I am a frugalista if there ever was one! Surprisingly, these glosses are not what I would typically like. They tend to be a little thicker (longer staying power!), a tad sticky if too much is applied, and as the editor commented, perfumey. But I still love them. They are shiny and can last a few hours, rather than a few minutes. And for whatever reason, the taste and smell of them doesn't bother me a bit. In fact, strangely enough, I like it. The shades are so flattering there truly is a color for everyone. I would definitely recommend.

With the humid Summer heat already upon me, I thought I should try either a waterproof mascara or some type of long wearing mascara. I had a BOGO coupon for CoverGirl, so I thought I would try out their waterproof Lash Blast. I tried the Full N' Soft waterproof by Maybelline and it was disappointing. I definitely like the Lash Blast Waterproof better. There was minimal clumping and I thought it stayed on better, with no flaking or smudging underneath. The only thing I wish was better was more length and volume. I like a mascara where 2 coats is enough for ample volume and lift; I felt like I had to apply 3. It also didn't leave my lashes dry or cause them to fall out, like some waterproof mascaras do. It's always hard to find a waterproof mascara to love!
