I'm not quite sure what this product is supposed to do. It goes give the skin a slightly velvet texture, but I can't say that it really improves the overall appearance. It's also a bit overpriced.

Bath & Body Works True Blue Spa Look Ma, New Hands Softening Hand Lotion with Paraffin
Good, but too many chemicals
This product certainly works; however, for those who are worried about all those chemicals and such, I don't exactly like smothering myself with these ingredients. I prefer something a little more natural.

Very emollient and rich, still not as good (in my personal opinion) as Le Couvent Des Minimes (now discontinued by Bath and Body Works), but this one is still very nice. I like the fragrance, even though I'm normally allergic to scents.

This moisturizer is perfect for those with even oily skins. It really does seem to tone the skin well, and it gives an overall, glowing appearance. I really like this one, and, despite the hefty price, I think I've found what I need. The scent is very minimal and natural, smells like "bran" which is one of the ingredients (rice bran). Fragrance *is* listed towards the end, but I really can't say it would bother someone with a fragrance allergy, as I suffer from such myself.

I'm not quite sure what the appeal of this product is. It is rather average and doesn't make the skin as smooth as everybody claims it does.

I have to admit, this product works. It may be a little too oily for some though. I usually break out from anything, even the so-called "no oil" products, but this one didn't seem to create any problems for me. You will see instant results with this, unless your skin is extremely damaged and needs more than just a cream or lotion to repair it.

Very high-quality products (made in Italy) with a divine texture, very versatile (easy to use in conjunction with other lip products), and has a subtle, sweet smell. I would highly recommend this one to those with an artistic flair when it comes to lip products.

Victoria's Secret Sexy Little Things Lather Me With Love Shimmer Shower Gel & Bubble Bath
Even my husband conceded . . .
Presumably not tested on animals, as most of Victoria's Secret products, this bubbly, frothy concoction isn't offensive to people allergic to fragrance (as I am), as the fragrance is light and suggestive. The lather is softening and silkening, rather than soapy and harsh; however, and this may bother people who use cruelty-free products -- the ingredients list pearl powder and silk, besides the honey, cocoa, and grape extract, which are three great ingredients. (The first two ingredients sort of bothered me, as yes, I am one of those more "extreme" cruelty-free people. The honey might also bother others.) Despite its faults, this product does not disappoint. The best thing about it? $16.00 for 16.9 ounces. Not bad at all. This is pretty long-lasting, unless you're excessive about bubbles, as I am. I also forced my husband to try this, and he liked it by the way.

I agree that these glosses always look good. They have a very nice cushiony texture and beautiful scents (and I am a person who normally dislikes scents). The taste is also nice!

I'm sorry, but despite all the raving about Smiths' products, I am not enamoured of them. I cannot stand the waxy texture, nor am I a big fan of the strange smell. This is just my opinion, so maybe it's just me. Then again, maybe this product is a bit overrhyped.
