The taste is not the best and I didn't see any change in my skin after drinking this for about two weeks. I used the powder packs, not the pre-mixed bottles, but the packets are just as expensive. I received my box for free, but I don't think I will purchase this in the future. I kinda wonder if this works on the placebo effect - if you think it will work then you will see signs that it does. I fully expected this to do nothing for my skin that eating well wouldn't do as well, and nothing did change with my skin.

This line makes so many colors of eye liners that anyone can find a perfect shade. I recently got one in Spice - a coppery deep brown. It applies without tugging, keeps a good point after sharpening, smudges/blends beautifully, doesn't fade and it's half the price of other store brands to boot. I think I have found my new favorite eye liner.

For two bucks, this is actually pretty good mascara. It does lengthen lashes without clumping, but it takes a few more strokes than with higher priced versions. It also stays one fairly well. I am able to wear this with confidence that it won't flake or smudge and give me dark circles under the eyes. Great mascara to keep in a purse, backpack, or carry-on luggage.

I got this because I had a coupon for a free NYC product. All I have to say is WOW. For two bucks this has to be some of the best mascara out there, or else the industry's best kept secret. It's not waterproof, but it doesn't budge until I take it off with makeup remover. No flakes, no clumps, no smudges, no smell, and no under eye circles even after wearing for an entire day in the humid heat here in the southeast. I have this in the lengthening as well, and it is just as great as this one. Great to keep in your purse for touch ups or more oomph.

I was drawn to this because of the pomegranate oil to help with my lips which get dry and chapped with the least provocation. This did work, but not as well as the original for me. I was on the fence about the taste - like a mix of honey and pomegranate that isn't good but not horrible. I love Burt's Bees, just the flavor of this balm was a bit off-putting.

I have this in three different colors. It's cheap, it does deposit color, it's not sticky, and it doesn't taste or smell horrible. It also doesn't stay on long and the colors are not all that flattering for grown-ups. I actually use it over a lip conditioner that I use at night. I helps lock in moisture and I wake up with super soft lips. It also works well alone as a pretty decent lip balm. I just don't wear it out in public. since it's super, super shiny.

This lotion smells absolutely divine. I had gotten a sample and had to get the full size. It's probably the least "sweet" lotion Jaqua has when you consider the other scents of chocolate raspberry or pink buttercream. Pink Potion is on the citrusy side, almost like sweet grapefruit. It moisturizes very well and absorbs quickly. The downside is that because the scent is so potent, it doesn't play well with perfume. This can be worn either alone or at night before bed when you typically would not wear perfume.

I am hooked on this applicator! It took a few tries to get used to, but now I hate using wand brushes. This round applicator gets EVERY lash, no matter how tiny. I also have had no clumps when applying. As for the mascara, I really like it. My lashes were elongated and thickened without looking fake. Even though the formula I have isn't waterproof, you would never know it. It lasted through a tear-jerker movie and a hot humid day without running, flaking or smudging - and even some waterproof formulas can't match that! It came of easily with makeup remover and didn't leave my lashes feeling dry or brittle. The only other mascara I have used that could top this one is Lancome Definicils. No wonder why this new mascara is so good - Lancome and L'Oreal are the same company.

I love using this Korres lotion in the winter instead of my normal Yogurt lotion. The Wild Rose lotion is much thicker and creamier - perfect for dull, dry winter skin. It absorbs well, but I tend to use it as a night cream instead because it doesn't absorb quickly. A little bit goes a long way, so a jar will last through fall and winter. I do have a tendency to break out, but so far no issues with this lotion and I have used it for the last couple of winters. I sent some to my friend who live in Michigan, and she loves this stuff for windburn (she is a runner). She uses it after she is done running and washed the sunscreen off her face, since she doesn't use this as the SPF is so low. The scent is really nice as well.

If you have combo or oily "dry" skin, this mask will do wonders for your skin! It is so creamy that it feels like it should be clogging your pores on overdrive, but all it leaves you with is soft, beautiful, glowing skin. I use this with the yogurt moisturizer and get glowing skin with no oil slicks from either a too heavy moisturizer or flakes from not enough moisture. My hubby loves how soft and clear my skin has become!
