I've used Mason Pearson brushes since I was in high school courtesy of my Mom. In college I lost my brush and got a similar looking brush that wasn't Mason Pearson. What a difference!!!! I have very, very, very long hair that ALWAYS tangles. And, while my hair is thin there's alot of it so it can be extremely hard to get a brush through it. This is my favorite Mason Pearson brush for my type hair. It breezes through the tangles and leaves my hair perfect no matter how I'm styling it. These brushes (if cared for according to their directions) last just about forever. So it's a wonderful value for the price. My Mom also uses this same style Mason Pearson brush and she has short, thick hair. She loves hers as well. As a note, I have a few different styles of Mason Pearson brushes: the pocket size and the "detangler" ( which is just nylon bristles). Both these styles work well also. But for my hair type the pocket brush is too small and takes forever to get through my mane and the plain nylon bristles just don't seem to work as well. I don't know why. The Popular Bristle and Nylon Brush is hands down MY favorite. But it might depend on hair type. So, if this style doesn't work the best for you .... don't give up on Mason Pearson. Another style might just suit you better. I know the price tag is scary.... but seriously these brushes last years upon years and you really don't need another brush in your arsenal. they're very easy to care for and even come with their own cleaning brush. I give this brush an honorary 11!

This hand cream is fantastic. It makes your hands soft and silky smooth no matter how dry and cracked they are. It also doesn't leave hands greasy as it absorbs into skin very quickly. it lasts a good length of time. Also, if used in conjuntion with the Bliss softening gel gloves it's like have a manicure at home. It's a great value for the price. A little goes a long way. The packaging is utilitarian. My very favorite hand cream! Whenever I run out ...I run out and get more.

This product from Laboratotie is splendid. If you're short on enerergy ortime this product works extremely well as a cleanser, exfoliant and toner. It leaves skin clean, soft and well cared for. It definitely does all it says it will. It's gentle enough to be used everyday .... so it's a good choice for traveling if you need to save room packing. It's a marvelous value for the price. A little goes a long way. It's gentle enough for sensitive skin, yet still works well on oily areas. In short it works well no matter what skin type.

I actually do live in a place where sweating is just unavoidable. I've used the Clarins line before with moderately happy results. I've tried all the "regular" deodorant/ antipersperant brands....i. e. : Sure ,Secret, Degree, stc. I was happiest with my Secret for awhile and actually just tried the Clarins on a whim. It worked magnificently. It completely neutralized odor for me and prevented wetness. Definitely worth the price. I've read the other reviews and all I can think is that it depends on body chemistry. But if you're looking for something to really work ....try this. It totally worked for me. I'm converted!

I have very sensitive, dry skin. This cream soothes any irritation my skin may be experiencing. It also is an excellent moisturizer. Keeps my skin looking it's best. It absorbs in quickly. A boon to those of us with sensitive skin all the way around. A good value for the price.... a little goes a long way. Nice classical, pretty packaging.

I love the pout illuminator. I have it in the light tone. It gives your skin a subtle, glowing shimmer. Doesn't make you look like a disco ball. It goes on smoothly, no caking or anything like that. Just a light subtle coverage that you can wear with your foundation or by itself. Very cute packaging. It lasts well throughout the day or night. If you're going day through the night you might need a touch-up, but who wouldn't for that time length. It's a great value for the price. And since the company doesn't sell in the United States anymore...you're apt to find it at a discounted price. I did and proceeded to stock up on what I could find of the Illuminator and several other Pout products.

Unfortunately I discovered the Pout cosmetics line about the time it went out of business. On the upside, the beauty store I found them in had them on clearance for amazing prices so I stocked up once I found out just how great the line is. The Lipslick comes in a beautiful array of colors. It's not gloppy or sticky. It's as it says "slick". Very,very nice. There's a subtle caramel scent that's pleasing. It has good staying power for a lipgloss. Definitely a good value for the price and very cute packaging. The only downside would be locating it...but if you can find it, go for it!

I love this 5 pack toothpaste with the different flavors. Each flavor is is pleasant. The toothpaste does a wonderful job of cleaning your teeth and whitening them. I think it's a good value for the price. I love the GoSmile line of products for whitening teeth and I really love a choice of flavors other than mint.

For us chicks with very sensitive skin this product is a dream come true. The Decleor cleaning water is very gentle but is a very thorough cleanser. Makes your skin squeaky clean and petal soft. Has a nice soft fragrance. It's a very good value for the money. You don't have to use much to get very clean skin. I'm not sure how it would work on oily skin. But, for dry sensitive skin it's perfect.

I didn't discover the Pout line of cosmetics until they were being discontinued...definitely something to Pout about. The eyeshadow duos are wonderful. There's a wide variety of colors that are beautiful all on their own as well as together. The shadows blend very well, are easy to work with and have great staying power. They are a great value for the money and a treat to mix and match. The packaging is delicate looking,very girly and adorable. I happened to find a slew of Pout products (eyeshadow duos included)on clearance. My advice; if you find some that catch your fancy snatch them up before they're gone.
