Lathers wonderfully like a body wash but cleanses like a bar soap! I wouldn't say it does any major exfoliating, though.

I too am jaded by the promises of acne products to actually deliver what they say. When I was younger I tried all the prescription medications out there, with only Accutane working. Now that I am older I have mild acne and have been looking for an over-the-counter fix. I've tried all the brands out there: Dermalogica, Neutrogena, etc., but nothing yielded real results. This product really WORKS. The first time I used it I woke up with a NOTICEABLE difference. It did not irritate or dry out my skin either.

I like this scent--it's floral without being overpowering or old lady smelling. Has a hint of alcohol scent, but that usually goes away once you spray on yourself.

I like this product--I think it is similar or if not the exact same that many professionals use in facials to extract blackheads. Some things to be cautioned of: DO NOT use this before going out. It requires force to get the blackheads out (not so much whiteheads) and causes my nose to be red and sometimes leaves TEMPORARY indentation marks (they go away fairly quickly). It seems that as I use the product more the redness and marks aren't as severe. This product is great for getting rid of blackheads on the side of the nose where there is more cartilage and therefore more room to press down harder. I see a visible difference after using there. Doesn't really work on the bridge of your nose because it hurts too much!

Philosophy Purity Made Simple Foaming 3-in-1 Cleansing Gel for Face and Eyes
Great at removing makeup but no miracle
It is true--this cleanser will remove almost every trace of your eye makeup. I can wear eye shadow, liquid eyeliner AND mascara and amazingly it all comes off in one cleanse--no need for eye makeup remover. There was so much hype surrounding the product so I think I expected it to perform miracles (which, of course, it didn't). It is a good cleanser but for my combination/oily skin (NOT dry skin by any means) it dried out patches and I need to use a heavier moisturizer because of it.

This mascara definitely lengthens and separates, but I needed to wear the booster underneath in order to get more volume. This mascara is okay, but I wouldn't say it is worth $34. Gets to be very flakey after a few weeks and sometimes I ended up with more spider-looking lashes than false-looking lashes. If you have the volume going for you but need the length, it might be worth a try.

This is a very good exfoliator/cleanser. It does a great job at smoothing the skin without being too abrasive for sensitive skin. Doesn't feel too grainy. My skin isn't particularly that sensitive to exfoliants, so I usually go for something cheaper that does the same job.

After hearing all the hype about this moisturizer my expectations were a little high. It does work well, however, for my combination-acne prone skin it felt a little too thick on my face. It does smell pretty bad, but if it worked miracles the smell would not be enough to bother me.

I borrowed some of this stuff from my friend while I was going out to play tennis, and I absolutely loved it. It was the least greasy sunscreen I have ever used. I couldn't stop touching my face because it felt so smooth and non-sticky! Great protection - did not burn either.

After I first bought this mascara, I was very excited because it separated and volumized my lashes very well. I liked the material the brush was made out of. However, after about only a week, I found the consistency of the formula completely changed, and became clumpy and I had to throw it away.
