pretty much anything that smells like coconut i love, it reminds me of summer and being on some tropical isle, BUT in addition to smelling great this is a wonderfully rich conditioner, i use it from root to tip (i have thick hair with a sometimes oily sometimes dry scalp) I use it in combination with bumble and bumble's Tonic Shampoo but every other wash I just use the conditioner, it actually lathers up a bit if you put it in and then just cup some water in your hands and rub it in to your scalp. great great great.

I have sensitive eyes which are easily irritated. I have found this to be just the best mascara, it barely flakes and it goes on smoothly, as it gets a bit older it clumps more, but that is a great indicator that its time for a new tube! I use the black (they have a carbon black which is i think more intense) You can layer this mascara easily for a more dramatic effect, but one or two swipes imparts a nice natural look.

I use Pepino very sparingly to impart a lovely rosy pink sheen on my lips it looks great. I'm very pale with pink under tones. It just looks great. and it lasts fairly well. I just bought another one in rubisparks and its amazing! It gives you that I've been kissing a great kisser (minus the red face). Its a great great color it perfectly cranks up my natural lip color, and while you need to reapply (not too often though), It fades really nicely

Still trying to figure out the perfect amount and timing for applying this product. I've been layering it over Wired by Rusk, I put the Rusk in my hair just after squeezing out excess water with a towel (not rubbing or twisting but scrunching with the towel) Then after the hair has dried a small amount i've scrunched in Brilliant. This combination seems to be working fairly well so far this summer (hot and humid) I have thick curly hair, and while it doesn't keep the curls in perfect form it does keep them more separated than other products. I often find Aveda products to have too strong a sent, and while Brilliant has the traditional Aveda sent it doesn't feel as over powering because I only use a small amount.

I bought this pencil in two colors that i can layer over each other for subtle to dramatic effects. I got Rosemary & Thyme which is a beautiful gold/green/mossy color and I got Tarnish which is a black/Emerald color. I often have a problem with oily lids so that eye liner ends up transferring to my brow bone when i blink or migrating to the crease or corner of my eye. I found these to only migrate a tiny bit to the crease after a hot sticky new england evening. The color faded a bit but i applied it fairly lightly. The Tarnish is a great alternative to straight black or brown, I have very dark hazel eyes and very pale peachy skin so it was a great option rather than a harsh black. Highly recommend, also they have so many awesome colors you could just play with these for days!

I found the product TOO soft, it was hard to control, or hard to use a light hand. I like very sheer washes of color, so maybe this just wasn't the right product. Its very nice for stronger colors, I would say the pigment quotient is closer to that of a lipstick than a gloss, but it does have great shine, so if you are looking for a strong color with a great texture and shine this is grat

It doesn't lather very well. I find I have to use a lot more of this product than other body washes. But it does smell and feel wonderful. But I won't buy it again.

I have curly (big fairly lose curls) I like putting this over Wired Personality cream. It adds more hold to the combination. The smell is strong in the tube but not overpowering on your hair.

I like using this when I want more curl definition and hold (a night out or just because). I put it in fairly dry hair, after using my regular products. It also gives hair great shine. The product itself looks like some kind of fantasy mermaid pomade. The product is beautiful

I have rather unruly brows and this stuff is great, I actually apply it with a tooth brush i just tap the brush against the wax and then brush my brows! It lasts quite a while even though it is such a small pot. I'm almost through my second one. I'd say it lasts me about a year or a little longer
