I've used this product for over a month now, and see no noticable difference. The rollerball feels nice and cool under your eye and I think the skin feels tighter after use. But that feeling wears off quickly. You can apply makeup over it with no issues, at least. Might help a tad with puffiness, but I just don't see the difference. It IS refreshing. If it's on sale or I have a coupon I might buy it again. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother at full-price.

I absolutely love this stuff! The light, clean scent is lingering, yet not too strong. When I use this as shampoo, my husband can't stop sniffing my hair (and neither can I)! I love it as shower gel and shampoo - but I have to admit, it doesn't really foam up enough to be considered a 'bubble bath'. (I believe Philosophy makes an Amazing Grace bubble bath as well, so I guess that wasn't their aim here.) Either way, it feels and smells decadent on my skin. It leaves my skin soft, silky, and lightly scented. Did i mention I love it?

I'm not sure what it is about this gloss, but I really like it. I mean, if it's within reach, I have to put more on! I picked this up on a whim at my local $1 store (so at least there, you can't beat the price). The reviewer below me nailed it - the shine of a lip gloss with the consistency of a lip balm. So this is really convenient! I love lip balms, but the tins and pots are messy and hard to use if you have fingernails! Keeps your lips kissably soft without stickiness! I'm going to buy a few more at this price to stock up!

Yes to Carrots C Today or C You in the Morning Moisturizing Day Cream, for Dry to Sensitive Skin
Pretty good!
I typically use the cheap Olay daily moisturizer and it's great. However, this winter I seem to be getting dry patches on my face, so I went in search of something new. I'm not sure what drew me to 'Yes to Carrots' initially, but after reading the ingredients I decided to give it a shot. It's a nice thick cream that blends well with no greasiness. I've only been using it for about a week and I really feel a difference already. The dry patches are disappearing and my skin is baby-smooth. At the mid-price (around $14), for me it's definitely been worth it.

People seem to really like this one, so I guess I'm in the minority! The 'coconut' smell was very cloying to me - very fake and chemical-y. The shampoo cleansed well, but I can't see it as a 2-in-1. I still had to use a separate conditioner because it continually left my hair a tangled mess otherwise. After a week of use, it became very apparent that I was allergic - which rarely ever happens. Needless to say, I won't be buying it again.

This is now the only powder I buy! I have fair colored skin, and this gives just a subtle amount of color in all the right places. It really does 'balance and brighten'! I tend to get dry patches on my face on occasion and this covers without making them look flaky or 'caked on'. I usually use this over a tinted moisturizer, but I have also used it solo with great results. I seem to have trouble finding the 'perfect shade' for my skin, but this is it! I think a few different skintones could use it with no problems since it blends so well.

... but the Eau de Parfum smells fabulous and the price is a little more reasonable. I received a sample vial of this a few weeks ago, tried it out... and then obsessively searched online for the best price to buy a bottle! I could not stop sniffing myself! For some reason, I have this stigma against 'Juicy Couture' - maybe from that 'Paris-Hilton-wearing-nothing-but-Juicy Couture-overdose' we saw a few years ago. So immediately I wanted to hate this perfume... but I can't! It's truly gorgeous! Most perfumes I pick up are too strong and cloying for me. I can't stand when someone walks past you and you gag on their perfume! Ick. This is very light - slightly sweet (but not like those sickeningly fruity sprays), a hint of delicate floral, with a touch of some 'green/watery' notes. It's a very clean and feminine scent - and not too heavy! As mentioned, I use the Eau de Parfum and it wears most of the day! I think I've finally found my new favorite scent!

This is the only lotion I use on my face! I have used it for a few years now and though I've tried many others, I always go right back to this! <br> I have very sensitive combination skin and this is one of the few lotions that does not aggravate it. It's lightweight formula absorbs quickly and easily, making it perfect to wear under your makeup. <br> You can pick this up for less that $10 - in my opinion, that's a huuuuge bargain compared to more expensive brands, especially when it works this well! When used regularly, you'll have a soft, dewy complexion.

I've used this for years, however it just doesn't seem as good as it used to be. The texture, the smell...? Does anyone know if they've changed their formula in the past few years? It's still a decent scrub, though a bit too harsh. You definitely don't want to go into 'full scrub' mode with this stuff on your face, It's best to lightly massage it on with your hands. I also use it on my legs in the winter as well and it does wonders for my dry itchy skin. The price is right, so I still buy it... but I swear it was better years ago!

I admit it. I am in love with almost every product Lush makes. Fresh, hand-made, natural cosmetics and bath products. Not tested on animals. Eco-friendly packaging. What's not to love? The bubble bars in general are my biggest weakness. They come in a fabulous array of colors and scents -just crumble a chunk of the bar under running water. (I find that you can get 4 adequate baths out of the standard-size bubble bar, though some might prefer more or less bubbles.) My favorite is 'French Kiss' - real lavender oil and flowers. So luxurious and much nicer than that artificially scented stuff!
