Lancôme Dual Finish Multi-Tasking Powder & Foundation in One
The best pressed foundation I have ever used
It has pretty good coverage for its kind and it leaves a nice, matte finish. It's a good thing to keep in your purse for quick touch-ups during long days.

The first thing I noticed about this product is the tea rose-like smell it had. It was not greasy at all and although it wasn't as breathable as my current face cream, it was more so than most day creams. I used this cream on one side of my face and my usual expensive cream that I never stray away from on the other half of my face for eight weeks. Although I can not report much of a difference between the two sides of my face, there is actually something good to be said about this product for that reason. I am very particular about what I use on my face, and have tried many different creams to try to save myself the $75 I pay for less than 2 oz of my current face cream. I could not use any other cream for more than a day or two, but tolerated this one very well. One thing to note: please read the directions and do not apply around your eyes. You must use a separate eye cream while using this product. All in all, it is a decent face cream and if you are looking for a very good value, you can find it in this product.

Maybelline New York Volum' Express The Colossal Washable Mascara
Great mascara, but use a booster beforehand
I can't say that this is the best mascara I have ever used by itself, but I will definitely purchase it again after having used it with a pre-mascara lash booster. It almost looks like I have false eyelashes on. It does have the tendency to thicken a bit with potential clumping, but that is the price to pay if you want to thicken your lashes as much as this does.

I have trouble with a lot of flosses, especially the ones that claim to be easy to get in between my teeth. This floss is good. I have minimal gum bleeding when flossing every day and there is no struggle to get between my teeth. It's also got a nice consistency that feels like it is leaving my teeth nice and clean.

I received a sample of this and intend to actually buy the full-sized product after trying it. I had low expectations of this product since I am used to using more expensive hair products but was very impressed. It left my hair feeling stronger and so soft that I kept playing with my hair all day. It also had a nice scent.

This has a very classic smell to it. It is a good balance of floral and sweet. This is a very strong perfume so I wouldn't recommend it to anybody who is sensitive to perfumes. Surprisingly, the scent did mellow out a bit within a couple of hours (or to some we could say that it "faded"). Overall not the right scent for me but I'm not real big on floral. It doesn't hurt to try a spray or two at the department store before buying it, it is a very nice scent.

I've had the same Avon sharpener in my makeup bag for longer than I can remember, which says something about the quality. The blades are sharp enough so that they don't chew up the pencils when you sharpen them and I seem to waste less when I use this sharpener (how many times have you sharpened it and something happened to the tip of the pencil where you had to start all over?).

This product is good enough for Avon to keep forever. I usually buy this around the holidays, and it's so inexpensive that I buy a whole bunch - some for me and some to put in Christmas stockings. Everybody seems to like it. It gives your lips a nice moisture barrier any time of the year without leaving any kind of a waxy residue.

I suppose this would be good for someone who had dry, chapped skin that was exposed to icy temperatures in the dead of the Winter and who did not moisturize regularly. In that case, this would probably be the perfect body lotion. However, if you have otherwise healthy skin I do not recommend it because it will not absorb very quickly and will be kind of heavy. I am still going to give this six stars because I think it would be good for extremely dry skin (but shame on you if you let your skin get to that point!) And of course I feel the need to mention that one thing I like so much about Avon is that they are a conscientious and ethical company.

There's a reason why Avon has kept this product around for so long. This is a no-frills but very effective moisturizer. It works well as both a body lotion and a hand cream, depending on how dry your skin is. Whenever I buy Avon, I stock up on the mini sizes of this to keep in my purse. Another thing I like about using Avon products (and you will see me repeat this) is that they are a very conscientious, ethical company.
