I tried this years ago, but I never used it again. Maybe Olay reformulated, but when I tried this product, it was greasy and didn't absorb well at all. I hated how it felt and how my face looked shiny. I find that most of Olay's facial lotions tend to be oily/greasy-feeling and consequently, I do not use this brand.

Well, first off, the sales associate didn't give me the correct formula (I wanted a daytime cream, not night), and this product felt greasy and didn't absorb well at all. The scent was overpowering--not something I wanted to smell for the rest of the night. I paid way too much for this to turn out to be so subpar. I could have spent less on a better product. I definitely do not recommend this one!

While the price is great, you definitely get what you pay for. This mascara would be best for times you don't really care about what you look like, but then again, why pay that money on a cheap product when you can spend a few more dollars on a better quality mascara? I think this is best for teenagers just starting the makeup thing because it doesn't cost very much but does a minimal job.

I think this straightener does a better job on mostly dry hair. I've used it several times on towel-dried hair, but I wasn't as satisfied with the results. I never have any trouble with hair getting caught in it, and it heats up very quickly. I recommend this to people with fine to medium hair. I don't think it would work very well on thick hair.

Bath & Body Works True Blue Spa Super Rich Body Cream Lay It On Thick
Great...until it made me break out >.<
I loved this body cream because it made my skin extremely soft and supple, but sadly, my legs started to break out from it. I had a rash that itched like crazy for days, so I stopped using it. Not sure what ingredient(s) caused this reaction, but if you have sensitive skin, I don't recommend this product.

I used this after I got my hair dyed for the first time. The smell is subtle, neutral. You can tell there aren't any dyes or fragrance added. It helped my color last longer (I had purple streaks, a tough color to keep), but I've since used less expensive color preserving products that work just as effectively, such as Aveda Color Conserve.

I have pretty dry skin, and this lotion works as well as a body cream or butter does. It does seem to be more effective if skin is slightly damp, so apply it right after a shower/bath. The scent is subtle and pleasant. It's definitely a lotion I would recommend, especially to those with dry skin. Only complaint is that it doesn't always absorb entirely into your skin, so you'll feel somewhat greasy for a bit, but applying it after your shower will help remedy this.

I have somewhat wavy hair, even though I'm Asian, so I really appreciate the results I get with this shampoo. As with all Aveda products, it smells wonderful and feels great. I could tell a difference with just one use. It's especially effective when used in conjunction with the conditioner and the style prep product afterward. I highly recommend this and all Aveda products.

I love this lip gloss! As with most Bath & Body Works products, this one is high-quality and worth every penny. The smell is luscious, as is the flavor, and I love the subtle tint. I got the blackberry one and was a bit iffy about the color, but it went on sheer and looked great. I've also noticed a slight tingling sensation when I apply it--that's refreshing and pleasant! It absorbs quickly and stays put for hours. No sticky or waxy feeling. Highly recommend this gloss!

I was hyped to try this product out, especially after reading reviews on TotalBeauty and other sites that sold it. I tried it out last night, and I think this the beginning of a beautiful new friendship. The assembly was simple, and the application was just as easy. It tickled quite a bit at first, but once I got used to the vibration, I enjoyed it. The effect was immediate: smooth, soft, glowing skin. My boyfriend was pleased with the results, as well. I highly recommend this product! Also, you can get a $5 coupon for the kit from the brand Web site, as well as a rebate on refills.
