I have this in the Satsuma scent--which is my all time favorite Body Shop fragrance. I like the packaging very much. It's a generous size, but the jar is short enough to fit into my bathroom drawer (though the down side of the container being large is that it takes up quite a bit of space). I find the cream to not be as thick as what I had imagined for a product with "butter" in the title, but it does go on nicely. It smooths out easily and absorbs quickly without any residual feelings of greasiness. My biggest complaint, though, is that the Satsuma scent is not strong at all. I feel I can smell the ingredients in the cream with only the tiniest hint of citrus and it's rather disappointing since the strong citrus scent is what I love so much. I'll continue using it, as it does moisturize nicely, but I doubt I will ever buy it again.

These are awesome. My fiance and I both hate to be without cotton swabs, especially after a shower (wet ears--just thinking about it makes me twitch). These are wonderful for traveling! I keep one in my travel toiletries bag so no matter where we are--whether it's a hotel or a friend's house and we just can't find everything we need--we always have Q-Tips. The plastic container is very durable. In fact (and the manufacturer isn't going to love this tip), I've only bought them ONCE and have simply been refilling the plastic container since then. Totally cost effective! I definitely recommend splurging on one or two of these and then refilling them as needed.

I've tried to be cheap and use the store brands but Q-Tip really does make the best cotton swabs out there. Not only is there the perfect amount of cotton at each end, but both ends are always sturdy enough. You know what I mean? I've used so many store brand swabs where by the time I'm halfway through cleaning my ear (or removing some stray bits of nail polish) the cotton is already half falling off the tip and it's not working the way it should. I NEVER have that problem with a Q-Tip!

I used this mascara daily for over a year and bought many tubes in that time. It was amazing. It didn't smudge or flake and one coat really did make my lashes look amazing. But then either they changed it or I got a bad tube, because suddenly it was VERY clumpy and just...gross. It made my lashes look awful and it flaked and smudged and was just bad. I've been using others since that last tube and haven't felt ready to give it another chance yet. I would love to be able to love it again--it's so affordable!

I received this mascara as a gift from a friend some time ago. I LOVE it. I always used it with a primer to get the best look, but even without the primer, this mascara made my lashes look gorgeous. It has a nice, deep black color and I didn't have any trouble with smudging or flaking. It was also very easy to remove with just my normal eye makeup remover. My only complaint is the high price (and that I tend to frequent Sephora for my makeup needs, and Sephora doesn't carry Chanel).

My fiance and I used this sunblock all last summer and we loved it. We're not really "ultimate sport" people, but our apartment complex does have a pool and we are both fair skinned and burn easily. I love the spray sunblocks because they're so easy to apply (these Neutrogena versions work even upside down), even easier to RE-apply (as we have to, because we burn so easily) and this one in particular held up well in the water when we were in and out of the pool. I love it and if I can find it again I'll use it this summer, too!

I really did not like this. I really only bought it because I was traveling and had forgotten to pack a scrub and I tend to have oily and acne prone skin (and this was pretty cheap). Aside from a general cleansing, this scrub did nothing for my skin. Acne prevention is an especially important part of my routine when traveling because I almost always get extra breakouts during this time. This stuff did not help AT ALL. Not with treatment or prevention. I do not recommend it!

This was my go-to product in my teens and I can even remember my aunt commenting that I had nice skin and asking what I used to keep it clear. Now that I'm older and have the budget for higher end products, I know there are other things out there that work better than this. But as a teenager with a part time, low paying job, I'd say this is the best product I could get that fit in my budget. It treated breakouts pretty quickly, helped prevent new breakouts and it never dried or irritated my skin. I've just grown up and moved on to other products that I think work better.

I used this for awhile until I eventually lost my tube. It's plenty moisturizing, but I saw absolutely no difference in the fine lines around my eyes. It didn't brighten or tone the area and it didn't improve dark circles at all. When I lost the tube, I didn't even look for it very hard because not using it was really not any different than using it...

This is a decent gentle cleanser, but it has really never shown any results for me for treating or preventing acne. It is creamy and moisturizing and it doesn't have an unpleasant scent, but it just didn't work well enough for me so I had to stop using it.
