I've never had bad acne, but for years I suffered from mild, random breakouts. I tried many different products in an attempt to stop these breakouts, but absolutely nothing worked. I had heard of Proactiv but was skeptical about trying it-- I thought it was only for really bad acne, not occasional breakouts like I had. Eventually, I decided I had nothing to lose and bought the Proactiv 3-step kit. I cannot state this enough: this product, along with the toner and the lotion, have worked a miracle on my skin. I've been using the 3-step system for about 9 months now, and I have not had a single blemish. Not only that, but my skin feels and looks incredible. My face doesn't feel oily at the end of the day, my skin is softer, my pores are almost invisible, and I have a positively radiant glow. This did more than just stop my breakouts-- it completely transformed my skin. I will never stop using this product!

After months of trying various mineral veil products, this is the only one that I still use-- and I have no plans to stop anytime soon! I have combination skin so am always looking for something to control oil without being cakey or heavy, and this does the trick. I dust this over my makeup to set it, and it lasts all day. No need for a touch up, no excess oil, no annoying shine... just smooth, polished, radiant skin all day long! It's airbrushing in a jar!

I absolutely love this as a blush in Gerbera. It goes on much more smoothly than expected and adds an instant glow to my face that last literally all day long. I've always had trouble with powder blushes fading after a few hours, so I love the staying power of this blush! I'm not a huge fan of using this on lips-- it's a litte too matte for my taste-- but it works in a pinch if it's all I have!

I usually shy away from liquid concealers and have preferred to use stick concealers over the years. In my experience, many liquid concealers do not conceal dark circles very well because they are too thin and watery. However, this concealer has converted me! It seems thin straight out of the tube but goes on with a nice, creamy consistency that covers even my most stubborn dark circles. I set the concealer with a translucent powder to avoid the "settling" under the eyes that many reviewers have complained about, and this seems to work well. My only complaint is that I wish it wasn't so expensive, but in this case, it's definitely worth the money!

I was first introduced to this product by a friend of mine-- she swore it would make my hair smell great after spending several hours in a smokey bar. She was right. Not only does this cream smell amazing, it works wonders to tame those annoying flyaways and smooth down unruly hair. I have thick, naturally curly hair that I frequently punish with a flat iron, and using a little of this after heat styling makes my hair soft, silky, and shiny. Just be careful not to use too much or it will leave your hair greasy.

I was really skeptical about trying this mascara after reading the very mixed reviews, so my expectations were low. However, I was very pleasantly surprised! This mascara adds INCREDIBLE length to my lashes. I wouldn't say they are 80% longer, but it's a very noticeable difference. I applied it exactly as it says in the instructions-- first apply the base coat then the top coat to the same eye before starting on the other eye. I didn't have any problems with clumping. It was also a cinch to remove at the end of the day with a little water. The only drawback, in my opinion, is that it did not add much volume to my lashes. But... I didn't buy it for the volume anyway. If you are looking for a mascara that adds amazing length but volume isn't that important to you (or you already have thick, luscious lashes), this may just be the mascara for you!
