I was out of the United States, and on vacation down in the Bahamas when I completely ran out of face makeup..and let me tell you, what a nightmare!I went down to the nearest store and found a very limited selection of cosmetics, and among them was this concealer stick. I was just relieved to find something I could put on my face....but after using it just once I seriously regretted my decision. This concealer stick is greasy and slick, and does not provide good coverage. The makeup does not cover well and I just can't say enough about how GREASY it was...it was the oiliest makeup product that I have seen in my entire life. My face broke out everywhere and I was so upset that I put this cheap makeup on. The only good thing about this concealer was the low price and the convenient, non-messy packaging. Really, it would have been better to just use nothing at all. I would never ever buy this again.

This so-called Moroccan oil is nothing like other brands I have used, and definitely not in a good way. It is clearly a very cheap version of the famed Moroccan oil, and did little more than sit on top of my hair. It certainly did not penetrate my very dry hair, even when I tried using it on freshly washed, still damp hair. The scent was nice, but the consistency of the oil was closer to that of vegetable oil than the silky-smooth texture of Moroccan oil. The scent was relatively nice, but other than that, I was extremely disappointed with this product. I would not recommend it to anyone, and I would never use it again. I felt that it was a complete waste of money and ended up just throwing it in the trash.

I was a huge fan of this mascara and Almay products in general when I was younger and had to wear contact lenses. I appreciated that their products are hypoallergenic and didn't irritate my eyes when I had lenses in. However, now that I no longer wear contact lenses and have tried more makeup brands, i have found that Almay just doesn't measure up. Most brands these days are hypoallergenic, and this mascara is really, really clumpy. I found that it smeared and ran a whole lot, particularly in the heat. I would have dark circles under my eyes by the end of the day. The separation it gave was poor-- the formula was just too runny to do anything except make lashes stick together. The only good thing I have to say about it concerns the color-- the black is a very nice, deep and rich shade which makes lashes stand out, but that on its own is not enough to make me buy this less than excellent mascara again. I do not recommend it. There are much better brands out there for this price point that are non-irritating now, even for sensitive eyes.

I have been a lifelong fan of the Wet n Wild brand of cosmetics...so many memories of experimenting with the colors with my friends as a young teenager! But even as an adult, I love their lip glosses. They have a decent selection of colors, (I am particularly partial to their sheer red one), and the glosses all go on nice and smooth. They have a very pleasant scent to them, and I don't find them to be sticky or messy at all, which is often the problem with other brands. They are an especially good bargain..I get them around here for $1.99, and I always keep one in my purse and my car for quick touchups. I love this brand and these lip glosses, and plan to continue buying them!

I don't really have a sweating issue, thank goodness, and I have a limited budget. Since I'm always on the hunt for a good deal, I choose this product. I like that they have an okay variety of scents, and it provides good sweat reduction. I work out a lot and I feel that this deoderant is adequate. I will continue to purchase it in the future.

I'm not a very sweaty person by nature, but I could appreciate this particular product during the hot summer months. I thought the scent was very nice and refreshing, without being too powdery, and it seemed to offer great dryness. I liked that it did not leave a chalky residue on my clothing, also. However, it is unlikely that I would be willing to pay the inflated price for this deoderant in the future. I don't see myself purchasing this one again.

This product has been around forever...and I'm sure there's a reason. It's a fairly mild cleanser, leaving skin soft. It doesn't strip skin of moisture or dry it out. I have extremely sensitive skin, and while I didn't notice that this cleanser really gave me any benefit, I was relieved to see that it didn't mess it up or irritate it either. I did not find that it gave me any breakout curing or preventative effects, though, so if you're using this to treat problem skin, you will likely end up very disappointed. At least the price is low. I would say that this product is just average, at the absolute best.

I'm sure that there's a reason that these shoddy strips have been discontinued-- they're awful! To start with, the size of the strips was way too small. They barely covered my teeth. And there was not enough gel on the strips, so I did not feel that my teeth were even covered with the product. The taste of the gel was very bad, and it did not stick to my teeth-- most of it slipped off so I had to spit it out. The strips themselves do not adhere well to teeth. So, in summary, these were messy, and didn't provide enough whitening effects to be worth bothering with again.

I remember that I had tried this tooth whitening system a good while ago, but I also remember that the effects were not very noticeable. This kit takes much longer to use than similar products that are available, and the mouth wash is very unpleasant tasting...it tastes like medicine. Still worse, though, is that I could not see any real whitening effects-- I spent hours carefully following the directions to the letter, and could only see marginal results-- much less than what the product promises. This kit also left me with very sensitive teeth, which, while to generally be expected with tooth whitening products, was disappointing since this one barely whitened my teeth at all. I felt that this kit was a waste of time and money, and would neither recommend it nor use it ever again.

After reading a whole bunch of rave reviews on other sites, I figured that I would give this shampoo a try. The only place that I could find it was at Sally's, and it is a bit pricier than what I like to spend. The scent of this shampoo is a bit musky, but it's relatively inoffensive. It lathers very nicely, but I felt like you really needed to rinse vigorously to get the hair truly clean. As far as moisture goes, I think this product does a good, but not excellent job. It did seem to impart moisture on my very dry hair, but it also seemed to weigh hair down quite a bit. If your hair is VERY damaged, then it might be good to bring your hair back to health, then you'll likely want to switch to something else. I like to use it after I go swimming or spend a long day in the sun.
