Then you've found it. This light, easy to apply powder helps makeup last all day long, and really gave my face a flawsless finish. I tend to go for higher-coverage tinted pressed powders (such as MAC's Studio Fix), but I'm a believer in this one. Worth the price!

Does help with puffiness and has a nice fresh scent. Doesn't feel overly greasy and works really well for what it's for. The downside is that it's pricey!

While it's a bit pricey, and there isn't a huge amount of product in this small little tub, it is creamy, heavily pigmented, and easy to work with. I work with it as if it was a pigment powder, because it's so similar in texture. You get some excellent product for the price. I would definitely purchase more colors in this line.

A silky, long-lasting shadow that is nicely pigmented and goes on beautifully. I use this as a base shadow over my entire lid, and have never had a problem with it creasing or fading through the day. While the price is a little more than I like to pay for a single eyeshadow, it certailnly is worth the price. I'll be investing in more shades.

I got two shower jellies over the holidays, and have been using them for the past few weeks. They smell wonderful, like all Lush products, and they lather up well, but I just can't get past the weird texture. Kind of difficult to work with - do I rub it on a washcloth? Use it only with my hand? How do I keep it from sliding out of my hand? How much should I use? It's a bit of a mystery. Fun to play with, but not really something I'd buy.

But not a bad product, either. It has pretty good frizz fighting ability, although it doesn't do much for the super-frizzy among us (like me). I like to use it right after flat ironing for a nice shine. Actually, I think it does better adding shine than it does with frizz, but that's not a bad thing. It also feels as if it helps moisturize dry hair, which is a bonus.

I love it. Love it, love it. It smoothes on incredibly easy, and feels almost as if it melts into your face. While it feels substantial (and almost heavy) during application, by the time you smooth it on, it is literally weightless. This is a concern of mine, due to my oily skin problem - I don't need one more product to make that problem worse. And it does amazing things with the wear of your makeup as well. I used it under several foundations, including my Too Faced Magic Wand Illuminating Foundation, as well as my Make Up For Ever Mat Velvet + Matifying Foundation, and both were looking quite fresh at the end of the day.

I got a sample of the Vanilla Cupcake body wash for my birthday from Sephora. While the scent was strong, it didn't last after I got out of the shower, and the wash was just average. Lathered up good, seemed to work well. Nothing out of the ordinary with this one.

This is another of the popular "tube" type mascaras, and while I think they can certainly give you volume, I'm not impressed with their ability to come off the lashes without making a huge mess. If I can't take it off with my waterproof makeup remover, then I'm not likely to purchase it again just because of the hassle factor. As a volumizing mascara, it does the job okay. It made my lashes stand out, although I prefer more. This would be a good mascara for someone looking for a more natural look versus my dramatic lash look I'm always going for.

A pleasant enough mascara to use, although it didn't meet my requirements for adding enough volume to my lashes. I think people will appreciate the more natural formulation of the product, though, especially with the current mineral makeup trend. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a more natural look, versus a dramatic one.
