I know the ad pics are photoshopped, but after trying this mascara, I learned they must photoshop in lashes as well. All it took was application to just one eye to pitch this in the trash. Clumpy and smeary don't begin to describe it. I tried to use an eyelash brush to separate my lashes, but it didn't help and mascara just smeared everywhere. It took forever for my lashes to dry (I thought I would try to separate them then) and even then I still couldn't get rid of the clumps cleanly - all it did was flake and smudge. They need to take this one off the market.

For some reason I can't understand, I keep trying out new mascaras to see if any match Lancome Definicils Mascara. The answer is always no, no, no. None of them even come close to how well this mascara goes on, stays on, and makes lashes look amazing. I use this with the Lancome Cils Booster and get the MOST amazing lashes that don't flake, smudge, or clump. So I have stopped my fruitless seach in stores and online and have happily resigned myself to using this mascara forever!

I have worked my way through multiple brands of dry and pre-moistened face wipes. These Aveeno pad's are by FAR my favorite. They are much thicker than any of the others, and I love their duel textures. The scrubbie side gives great exfoliation without taking off a layer of skin and the soft side smooths and removes dirt and makeup pretty effectively. These pads also don't sting my skin or eyes or leave behind a residue like other face wipes.

I have to admit that I am really liking the sample of this product that I am currently using. If an eye cream can be described as "comforting", that is how I would describe this one. A little bit goes a long way, but even that feels rich and hydrating going on, but as long as you are careful not to put on too much, the eye area is not greasy in any way. I have noticed my eyes being less puffy in the mornings (I use this at night) after just about a week of use. Too bad the full size costs $135 though from what I am seeing now, this stuff might just well be worth it.

Regardless of the price, this has to be one of the worst cleansers I have ever used. Not only did it make my skin burn, the very heavy soapy smell was so bad that I could actually taste it. It was very hard to completely wash off this cleanser as there was some very slick, almost silicone-line element to it. It was kind of like trying to rinse off hair frizz serum off my face. As for them describing how it was supposed to calm my skin, I was not pleased to see how red and mottled it made my face after I finally was able to get it all off and the burning feeling to stop. To make matters worse, I got some of the product in my eye. This pain made my skin burning feel like NOTHING. Even plain soap doesn't burn this bad. Whatever they put in this stuff, it certainly wasn't meant to be used on the face....

I just purchased the orange mango flavor, as I am really trying to "green" up my beauty and healthcare products for myself and my husband. I wasn't sure about getting this toothpaste, as I have had some pretty bad experiences with other natural versions that were just.....bad, really bad. I had seen the good reviews on here, so decided to give Tom's a try. I was really surprised at how clean my teeth and mouth felt without any grittiness or funky/horrible tastes. I definitely will purchase this now in the future. It's the same price as the main commercial brands, and the tube is huge - you get much more product for what you pay than for any other brand I have ever seen. I have also noticed less tooth sensitivity since using this, and my dentist said that some whitening toothpastes have so much grit and whitening chemicals that it can make your teeth really sensitive to heat and cold. Not so with Tom's! Just a great clean feeling with great breath. Only bummer? They don't make travel sizes (at least that I have ever seen).

I have to say that anytime I have a breakout, I always reach for this cleanser. It's mild, non-drying, and really works at taking care of my occasional breakouts. I am in my 30's, and thankfully the breakouts from the younger years are very few and far between! I loved this cleanser then, and I still love it now. I tend to use the Phisoderm Daily Deep Cream Cleanser when my skin is in the clear. The only bad thing is that only one drug store where I live carries the Phisoderm line. It is such a staple in my bathroom that I can't imagine ever being without it. For an excellent acne medication that treats the breakouts AND treats your skill well, this is the perfect cleanser.

This makes my hair so soft that it is unbelievable. No frizzies, no flyaways. Just beautifully soft, easily styled hair with the faint sent of lavender and sandalwood (not chemical). Even the next day my hair is still beautifully soft like I just washed and dried it. I really like it because I am able to shampoo my hair less which helps my color last longer. I just apply a pea sized amount to my damp hair and it's good to go. No build up between shampoos either!

This moisturizer is deceptive. It feels very thick and rich going on your skin, but it absorbs almost instantly with no greasy feel. My face feels soft all day and I don't break out - big bonus. The high SPF is great, as quite a few on the market are only 10 - 15. I also use the face scrub, eye cream and night cream. My skin is one very happy camper. I leave it in the fridge for a great morning pick-me-up along with your coffee. It depuffs my face and eyes after sleep and makes me look instantly awake.

I love the fact that I can make my own double and quad eye palettes! I can't be the only one who has ever loved just one or two colors in a quad palette and never really used the others. Mark Custom Pick completely gets rid of unwanted colors. I love biscotti, apple, cake, nomad, and tiki. Perfect neutral colors for daytime. And there are NO shortages of dramatic colors. Corset is great for smokey eyes. Most of the colors are shimmers, the rest mattes. The shimmers are GOOD shimmers - not glittery or over the top sparkles. Just a bit of shimmer. Easy to blend, buildable coverage, really long lasting when used over primer and if you don't like a color, just return it or exchange it for another thru you rep. Perfect!
