I love Escada fragrances. I just wish they didn't have limited editions. It's so hard to find them after a while and then they get so expensive. Anyway, I love Moon Sparkle. It's like a mixture of strawberries and apples. It smells so delicious. I had to make sure my bottle lasted a long time, so I got the 3.3 fl oz bottle. I own many Escada fragrances and this has to be on the top of my list. It's fruity but not overpoweringly sweet. I think it's just right. It's smell so delicious that I just want to drink it! I wear it all year round. It's amazing!

While this is a good concept, it just doesn't deliver. It looks absolutely awful on my eyes. It's like something a little girl would have in her toy makeup set. It's too shimmery, the color doesn't go on smoothly, it doesn't make my eyes look smoky. It just makes my eyes look ridiculous. Drew Barrymore looks great in the ads, but my eyes don't look like hers when I'm done using the product. It creases right away after applying it. The colors are nice but the texture is all wrong. I do not recommend this product. I'm going to stick with my powder eyeshadows and eyeliners to achieve my smoky look.

I'm very picky when it comes to mascaras because I just can't seem to find the right one. This one comes close to what I want, but there are some things about it that I don't like. First, it really does volumize my lashes. The downside is, like most other mascaras, my lashes uncurl when I apply it. I'm Asian and I have sparse, straight lashes and I just can't seem to find a mascara that doesn't uncurl my lashes after I apply it. I have to curl my lashes after I apply and let them dry. But after that, my lashes look thicker and even longer. I like the brush because it doesn't make my lashes clumpy. It separates yet thickens my lashes at the same time. It would be perfect if I didn't have to curl my lashes again after applying the mascara.

I thought the brush was a good idea, but it just failed horribly. I'm Asian and I have very sparse, straight lashes. This mascara gave me the wretched spider legs effect. It weighed down my lashes, it clumped, it did not volumize at all. It was awful. I do not recommend this product at all. I'm glad I was able to return it with no questions asked. It did nothing but make my lashes look Tammy Faye's, rest her soul!

I know this gadget is expensive, but so far it's been working really well. I have these tiny black dots on my nose and cheeks and nothing seemed to get rid of them. I've exfoliated, tried squeezing them out (don't do this!), used the Biore strips, putting my face over steam, etc. Nothing seemed to work! At first the gadget looks a little intimidating. The vibration sound hurts my ears sometimes, but I think it's well worth it! Even after the first use, I could see less black spots. I've used it five times altogether and I definitely see an improvement in my skin. My pores aren't as enlarged, the gunk inside the pores are getting extracted, my skin just looks better. If you have the cash, I definitely recommend this product.

I was Googling around for the best tinted moisturizer and Laura Mercier's Tinted Moisturizer kept coming up. I opted for the oil-free version because I get pretty oily skin as the day progresses. I had high hopes for this product because there are so many raves about it. I found it to be okay. It had good lightweight coverage, which is what I wanted. What I didn't really like was the texture. I found that I had to use regular moisturizer before this tinted moisturizer. If I didn't, my skin would be all flaky. And yes, I routinely exfoliate my skin. I don't know if the regular tinted moisturizer does that. Maybe I shouldn't have gone with the oil-free version. If the word "moisturizer" is on the tube, I expect it to be moisturizing. But it kind of wasn't. It's annoying that I had to do an extra step. I liked how the tinted moisturizer looked on my face but if it's supposed to be a moisturizer, I shouldn't need to apply another moisturizer before I apply this tinted moisturizer! Does that make sense? Anyway, it didn't fully meet my expectations but I'll still use it since I like how it makes my skin look.

I go to Costco and get two packs of these for about the same price as one in a drugstore. I definitely like these better than the Almay Moisturizing Eye Makeup Remover Pads. Those are way too oily and greasy. I hate how they feel. I have to wind up using toilet paper or a cotton ball to wipe off the grease. These oil-free pads feel so much better. They're cooling, non-greasy and they take off my makeup very easily. It takes off waterproof makeup without any difficulty. Sometimes when I have a lot of eyeshadow on I do have to use two, but I usually use only one pad. It's inexpensive and effective. Works for me!

I'm Asian and I have sparse, straight lashes. The only mascara that doesn't uncurl my lashes is the waterproof Maybelline Lash Discovery. That only partially lengthens my lashes. I've been trying to find a mascara that volumizes and lengthens. This mascara isn't that bad. The only issue I have is that it weighs down my lashes after I apply the mascara.There's no point in me curling my lashes before applying the mascara. So I have to wait a while for the mascara to dry and then I curl them. I generally have this problem with my lashes being weighed down by mascara, so I guess I'm used to it. i just wish I could just curl my lashes, put on my mascara, and then be done with amazing lashes. Despite that, after applying the mascara, curling and combing my lashes, it looks like I have false lashes on. My lashes look thicker and longer. So I give it 7 stars for the look, but 3 stars off because of the work I need to do to achieve it.

I always have a tube of this in my purse. There's a cracked part on the palm of my hand and this ointment really soothes and moisturizes it. It's also great on my lips when they're really chapped. This stuff is so moisturizing and it's especially great during the winter.

I always have a problem with my eyeliner running and smudging. I asked my friend who works for Bobbi Brown for any suggestions. She suggested this gel eyeliner and gave me a free bottle and brush! I was fairly new to using gel eyeliners, so I was a little scared when I first tried it. But actually, it wasn't that hard to apply. It goes on smoothly and easily. After many hours of it on, it neither smudged nor ran to the bottom of my eyes. It stayed put and looked as if I just applied it. If you are new to applying gel eyeliners, I suggest you put a line along the top and between your eyelashes with a pencil and then trace over with your brush with the gel eyeliner. It makes it easier to see where you're lining.
