My least favorite kinds of mascaras are ones that irritate, smudge, and take forever to take off. This mascara doesn't irritate and it does separate my lashes pretty well, but it does smudge a bit so be aware of that! However I like this mascara a lot. It actually CURLS the lashes with application, which is not common in mascaras.

I tried this cleanser due to a recommendation from my esthetician, along with the purity serum. The cleanser does not smell bad at all in my opinion, like I saw another reader said. I usually need two pumps as the cleanser is thin and the pump is hard to use. It is a good cleanser, but for the price I feel it is not worth it, and it will definitely not clear acne on its own. I would advise you to try a cheaper cleanser and make up remover (like plant based oil and a non-stripping cleanser) and spend your money on serums / exfoliants because those are the things that will actually get rid of acne. This cleanser is definitely stripping as well, and there are mixed arguments regarding a cleanser that leaves your skin tight and dry. The product that has really made a difference for my acne prone skin is Paula's Choice BHA 2% exfoliant. It's a game changer!

This lip balm tastes great - it has a caramel flavor. It also has SPF 15. It glides on easily and isn't sticky or uncomfortable. However, it requires frequent reapplying, which leads me to think it is doing more harm than good. My lips feel chapped sooner with this product than with other chapsticks.

This deodorant is amazing!! I have eczema in my armpits and natural deodorants always burn / irritate my skin more. I have had to use non natural ones with aluminum, which turn my shirts stained, so I have never been able to find the right deodorant for my skin / clothes. I tried Schmidts regular deo, rose scent, which smells AMAZING but it burned my armpits. So I reached out to them and they were so committed to customer service that they sent me a coco pineapple sensitive skin deo to try for free and I LOVE IT!! It smells amazing, doesn't burn, and actually works. I will never use another deo again.

I use these when I am in a rush to take off makeup. They do not work well for removing foundation. They work somewhat well for removing mascara (that's all I wear on my eyes) but they are not good for the sensitive skin around the eyes because my skin burned a bit after use. My main complaint though, is that my skin feels gross after using these. It doesn't feel clean at all.

I love this mascara. It doesn't clump, it applies easily, and it really does lengthen. It doesn't smudge very much either. It's also easy to take off which is a huge plus for me, because I don't like using makeup remover. I have sensitive eyes / skin, with dermatitis around my eyes all the time and this mascara doesn't irritate my eyes like some others do.

This mask is easy to apply and comes off easily, but those are the only positive points for me personally. Every time I used this mask I would see new pimples arise - I ended up throwing it out :( Dermalogica has not worked well for me - I have their sebum mattifier primer as well and I don't like how it feels smells, and their eye cream was meh as well. Maybe someone else will have better luck, because I know they are a respectable brand!

This sunscreen smells lovely. It's not greasy and it applies easily. My only complaints are that I am not positive it is the best at actually blocking the sun because I can notice signs of aging on my skin still, at age 24. My acne scars are definitely visible as well. Also, I don't believe it to be comedogenic, but I still have clogged pores / acne so I am not certain that this isn't contributing to that.

I have the rose scent which smells wonderful. The problem for me is that I have sensitive skin and this deodorant gave me a rash. My armpits burned so badly that I couldn't use it. Also, it doesn't last very long and I notice that I do get some odor later in the day. However, they have amazing customer service and they have a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee, so there is really no downside in trying this deodorant. I am going to be trying the Sensitive Skin version next!

I love Herbivores line. The packaging is incredible, it's all natural, and their customer service is amazing. This texturizing spray smells lovely and it does add noticeable texture to my hair. You can use it on damp or dry hair. My only complaint is that it seems really easy to make at home, and for the price I'm not convinced it is worth it. It is mostly just water, sea salt, and coconut oil. I've tried a couple other sea salt hair sprays too and this one is my favorite, so if you are going to splurge I recommend this one - but this may fall under the category of 'unnecessary products'.
