Buffy was my introduction into the Lush line (along with Honey I Washed the Kids - which I haven't tried yet). I like to use it on the back of my arms for those little bumps and I also use it to exfoliate my legs in preparation for self tanner. It does a good job for both because of the griddiness of the bar. I cut this bar into chunks and do not leave it in the shower so that it lasts longer. Downside...the price.

Overpriced sponge? Well maybe BUT...I was skeptical to try this because essentially it is a makeup sponge so how good could it be? But I have to admit, it really does give you a flawless makeup finish. I like to use it for applying my cream blush because it gives the application such a natural finish. As far as using it, run it under water (which will cause sponge to expand) and squeeze out the water and then put it in a towel and squeeze out excess water again. Apply product (foundation, blush, etc) and "bounce" the sponge over area you're applying the product to. Use the bottom part of the sponge when applying product to large areas (face, cheeks) and use the pointed part for smaller areas (around the eyes). I also appreciate that the sponge comes with a return address so it can be sent back for proper recycling. The only con...the price.

This body butter is on the thick side so a little goes a long way. Due to the different oils it contains (sunflower, almond, avocado) it does leave a bit of a film behind but it does absorbs nicely. It's a great moisturizer to use on those dry, rough areas like your knees and elbows. This body butter is packed with natural ingredients and has a tropical scent - kind of smells like certain sun tan lotions. I really like to use this during the summer months because of the scent.

I bought the trio set of these from Sephora a while back which contained vanilla, vanilla grapefruit and vanilla blossom. My favorite from the set is the vanilla blossom. It has kind of a spicy sweet smell and reminds me of Ralph Lauren's Hot. My new favorite is the vanilla coconut. It smells so good! It is my go to scent once the weather starts to get warm. As far as the body butters themselves...they are really thick and luxurious and nicely moisturize the skin. The scent has staying power and lingers throughout the day.

You can't beat this clear protectant for the price. It delivers a wonderful shine and it does last as long (if not longer) than some of the more expensive brands.

I purchased this blush in Sunrise. I have and olive complexion and the color is subtle and provides a natural looking glow. I use my Beauty Blender for applying which gives it a flawless finish. The only downside it the compact is on the small side...I wish it came in a bigger size.

I love this product! The warming sensation feels great on your feet and this is a great exfoliator for getting rid of those dry, rough areas. One of my favorite foot products.

This is more of a gentle exfoliator with a delicious scent. You get a lot of product for the price which should last you awhile. But for myself, I like my exfoliator to be a little more griddy to really slough off dry skin. However, this is still a great product.

I'm kinda a mascara junkie and I was excited to give this a try when I received a sample of it from Sephora. After trying, I have to tell you I'm really not that impressed. I do like the big brush but I don't think the mascara itself provided enough impact as I was expecting. Plus, I started to get racoon eyes towards day end.

I have occasional bouts of acne and have been trying every acne cleanser under the sun which left my skin dry and irritated (and probably contributed to more breakouts). Since I was already a big fan of the BE products, I decided to give this a try. It is such a gentle cleanser and did not leave my face red or irritated. I'm not going to lie and say I don't have breakouts anymore, I still do but I'm certain its not because of my cleanser.
