I prefer cool-toned lip products. The lip products I use also have to have color to them. In the past I have learned the HARD way that alot of "cool-toned" lip products that seem to have color to them with catch phrases like "balm" or "conditioner" are quite disapointing to me because the color is sooo sheer that you cannot see it at all. Such is the case with this. The pinks just show up as a clear gloss, which is pretty boring in my opinion. the formula was rather slick and didn't last very long as well. Rather disapointing.

...it was too fuschia (the healthy rose shade). The product itself I was disapointed with as well. The cosistency is not very creamy, which is something that is very important to me; it actually feels slightly grainy. I wasn't really impressed with the color quality, rather flat; no brilliance to it. I like lipstick to have more dimension to it than this stuff had. Not very long-lasting either.

I would compare it to shaving with a bar of creamy Olay soap. The longevity is lacking. It either gets shaven or washed right off, so you have to be really careful about that, or just use a ton. It provided a close enough shave, not the best I've ever had, but still pretty good. Towards the end of my shave I noticed a bit of a film developing, kind of like the kind you get with bar soap. And it caused a little friction against my razor resulting in less close of a shave towards the end. All in all it's a good alternative to your typical shaving products. I just wish that there was a little more lubrication, making things a little more "slippery".

Can be a little hard to apply/blend because it dries quikly, you kind of have to dab it on all over to get an even application. Once it dries it can feel a little heavy and toward the end of the it can flake a little. It is rather hard to remove. They have nice colors, rather on the shiny, metallic side; so if that is not your thing I would stay away.

I was interested in trying L'oreal HIP's gel eyeliner but on my budget paying the price for it wouldn't have the best idea. Then I saw this product for almost half the price so I snatched it up. It's really great. The color is rich and bold and easy to blend and smudge. The brush that it comes with is really easy to use. Eyeliner brushes always looked so awkward to me but this one isn't. This eyeliner lasts a long time (especially if you use it as a cream eyeshadow as well as a liner like I do, then it lasts forever!). It doesn't smudge or smear and the creasing is minimal.

A great, super creamy lip balm that has a lot of moisturizing power! Very soothing on the lips ! Not thin or greasy like a lot of natural lip balms out there. Smells and tastes scrumptious! Like coconut and vanilla!

When I first sprayed it on it was pleasant enough, a nice light flowery scent. But then after a few minutes it started to smell rather stale. Kinda grossed me out.

When I was in junior high and high school I used to swear by this stuff. Not because it helped my acne(Clean and Clear never did a thing. Neither did Oxy, Stridex, Phisoderm, Neutrogena...need I go on??) but because I thought this product was the only facial moisturizer that was oil free and wouldn't cause me to get pimples. But in my later high school years I have found many facial moisturizers that are far superior (I would have to keep reapplying this stuff to get decent moisturizing results out of it) to this one and that leave my pores alone. It seems like products like this from drugstore brands are too weak for even moderatley annoying cases of acne. It really seems that this kind of stuff is best for people who generally have pretty good skin but get a few breakouts every month. Where's the drugstore items for us girls who need a little extra TLC because of our acne??

It's too strong. It burned the inside of my mouth.

This was the first blush that I had ever had in stick form and I loved it!I bought it in the Coy color was is a perfect rosy pink color! I always have to have cheek color that is very rosy pink because if I buy a shade of pink that is too "natural" looking it always ends up looking too orange on my skin. It is a great alternative to sometimes chalky-looking powder blush! In my experience stick blushes have a tendancy to smear a little bit or rub your foundation off when you apply them. But I didn't have those problems with this stick! Mainly because the formula is alot more solid than others out there, which I think is great! The only bummer thing was that I had to throw the thing out because the cap got so cracked up that it wouldn't stay on anymore and the blush got a little smushed!
