This is the best body cream I have ever used, and I've tried 'em all. Not only does it smell amazing, it soaks into your skin leaving it noticeably softer immediately. Not at all greasy and moister lasts all day. Added bonus: Silver-Tip White Tea temporarily tightens and firms.

I am not one to follow the pack and when the Bare Escentuals craze started several years ago I instantly shied away simply b/c everyone one else jumped on the band wagon. A month ago I received a 10 day trial of the foundation from Sephora and instantly fell in love! I can't believe I waited all these years, using products that constantly broke me out, just because I didn't want to get on the mineral make up fad. Bare Minerals does not clog pores, which is major for my adult acne prone skin, it has good coverage and it stays put all day. I have always had a problem with too much oil production, NOT ANYMORE! This is a fantastic product for anyone with oily, problem skin. I didn't even wear foundation for 8 months because I was having such problems. With Bare Minerals my skin has completely cleared up! It's amazing! I gave it a 9 instead of a 10 b/c I prefer a more matte complexion and the minerals do give a subtle sparkle. And it does not cover acne scars as well as the infomercial makes it seem. I've tried several other powder and mineral makeups (all drugstore brands) and they do not even come close to Bare Minerals. This is the lightest makeup I've ever worn. One other thing-it does rub off on clothes. I accidentally got it all over my husband when I gave him a hug before work-so be careful!

After only one use I was stunned at how bright my under-eye area was. I normally have really dark circles and I did a lot of research before I purchased an eye cream. This is all natural, didn't irritate and really makes a difference. Draw backs to honey and royal jelly in a product: a little sticky while it dries and can be a bit stiff if you layer it on too thick. Once dry it softens and smooths and overall, the few minutes of sticky is worth the results.

The Sea Kelp in this product left my coarse, curly hair super soft. The hold wasn't as strong as the Treseme mousse I'd been using, but it gives nice bounce and isn't crunchy or sticky at all. It created more of a beacy, spiral wave then the curls I'm used to, but wavey is hot right now, so it's a good change.

This has been great for my massive mane of curly /wavey hair. It detangles nicely, gives bounce to my hair and helps keep my curl pattern looking good. It has a really great scent and isn't too heavy, doesn't weigh my hair down like a lot of conditioners for curls. I've been switching between Tresemme and Pantene for years, just buying whichever was on sale. Aussie is my new fav!

I won this in a contest, but I will purchase when empty. This is a fantastic cream! After 4 days of use I noticed the fine lines in my forehead disappearing, my skin had a luminous glow and it was much smoother and softer. I've been using for 2 1/2 weeks now and the improvement in tone & texture is unbelievable. The only downside is that you have to use it continuously. I missed 4 days of washing my face (oops!) because of an arthritis flare up and my fine lines were back. Its also a little heavy for a day cream for my oily skin, but it's great for night. I've just started using anti-agers since I'm in my mid-20's, but this has worked so much better than the L'Oreal products, Aveeno products and Neutrogena products that I've tried lately. It's expensive, but when my husband commented on how great my skin looked (something he doesn't tend to notice) I decided it is worth the price!

Very nice mascara, great coverage, could have more lengthening properties, but excellent volume. Here's the great part: NO CLUMPS! Have been using for 2 weeks now and have not had a single clump, it's fabulous. It really does nourish your lashes, also. Was using L'Oreal Telescopic but was having major lash loss. Lashes constantly falling into my eyes, sticking to contacts, horrible. Now lashes feel soft and are shiny when not wearing mascara (only at home of course). Also, not at all sticky and can actually wear on upper and lower lashes without them sticking together. The only drawback: the brush is too fat and long. Just too big all together, it hits the bridge of my nose when trying to get the baby lashes.

I have super oily skin and every other concealer I've tried rubs off by noon. This one stays put. I use light/medium and it has very strong yellow undertones, perfect for my olive skin. Other concealers seems to make my pimples worse, but the salicylic acid in this one dries them right up. Plus it blends really well with a brush. I have fairly light, sporadic adult acne and really use this on a few scars, daily. I just put on mineral bronzer with this concealer applied with a brush after the bronzer and it works great. I have repurchased over and over.

This works fairly well on my sporadic adult acne. It's not a miracle and it doesn't make zits disappear overnight, but it does calm readness and either dries or brings zits to a head within 2 days. I haven't found a miracle cure, so this will continue to work for me

Highly moisturizing, but does not last very long. Love the "Radiance" color. It's a shimmery colorless balm that is perfect under a heavy or matte lipstick. "Watermelon" was more shockingly pink than expected, this little tube packs a punch of color, but it grew on me. The great minty scent and soothing tingly are hard to resist
