This product didn't do anything except trick me into rubbing a greasy lotion around my eye for several weeks. The only way to really fix problems around your eye sans surgery is a good concealer!

I've long been afraid of liquid liners, especially because I have a slightly shaky right hand (the remnent of a childhood illness). It did take a couple of tries, but on my third application I was a pro. Fluidline delivers a clean, bold line of color that doesn't budge all day. I now own two of them.

I had a hard time finding a clear mascara, and I'm glad that this is the first one I found. It looks pretty on its own for a soft look or as a base for my regular mascara, which results in longer, more separated lashes. When I use it alone, it doesn't get dry, gummy, or cause my lashes to stick together; it just gives clean separation and makes them stand out a little more on their own merit.

I spritz this onto a weird "flat spot" I have on the top of my head that has resisted all volumizing efforts. This product has done the best so far of coaxing it to the same level as the rest of my hair and it does so without excessive stickiness or stiffness. Still, the search isn't over yet.

I initially turned my nose up at these because of the big pieces of glitter in them and the campy packaging. It seemed like something I would've loved when I was in junior high or when I had a frat boy boyfriend when I was 18. Then I tried Urban Cowboy, and it looked so lovely on me. I bought it, and have since started to think of the glitter and the packaging as fun. The pigmentation is rich and true to the color in the package, and it lasts all day without creasing. The only thing standing between this eyeshadow and one million stars is that the glitter gets all over my face. Cute at night, but not at work.

This product does such a good job of sloughing off my skin that I tend to overuse it. It gets all the gunk off and makes my skin feel truly clean. It's too strong/granular for my face, but I love going to town on my body with it.

Even though this product didn't work for my hair, I didn't dock it any serious stars because I could see how it could work well for someone with a different hair type. I finger-combed this product through my extremely fine hair and was delighted that I could twist and shape my hair--it really is elastic! Sadly, my hair dried in its usual shapeless shape.

I bought this hoping for some serious rehab for my fried hair. I liked using it because it smelled good and made my hair feel really clean. But I was annoyed by how much product I had to use to generate a good lather. I stopped using it once it became apparent that this shampoo wasn't doing my hair any favors: it was just as straw-like as before. This is a good shampoo if you're not relying on its supposed moisturizing properties.

I'm impressed by the color payoff this lip gloss delivers. The formula is nice and thick without being goopy, and the colors range from super sparkly fun to sheer and sophisticated. All the colors are very shiny. It's the closest thing I've found to Chanel's excellent lip glosses. They fall short of Chanel's longevity, however, and the brush applicator makes quick and easy application impossible.

I returned this mascara. It was too expensive for its so-so results. It coated my eyelashes with a nice shade of black and it did make them fuller, but they didn't appear to be any longer. The formula is thick and a bit dry, so it doesn't go onto lashes easily and, I'm guessing, causes it to dry out quickly. Like I said, this is just an average mascara and doesn't deserve to be in the Estee lineup.
