I have to agree with other reviewers. This is an excellent cream, but the smell is not pleasant. I couldn't in good conscience give it a 3 or 4, and base the entire review on the odor alone, but I do want to emphasize that it is certainly not the worst spelling cream, but if you are used to perfumey creams, this one certainly is not it. I was going to take it to work to use, but I won't be doing that. However, the cream is rich, thick and luxurious. It has far more pluses than minuses! A small amount is all you need; maybe the size of 2 peas. What I also really like about this cream is that the moisture lasts; it really binds to the skin and keeps the moisture in. It is perfect for the winter and if you have extremely dry skin prone to chapping from the wind and cold, I would definitely recommend this cream.

This is not my favorite lip gloss at all, and certainly not my favorite wet n wild product. I bought this in clear to be apply to apply over any color. It is very difficult to get ample product on the applicator, which results in pumping the applicator in and out. There isnt much product to begin with, and by doing this, it creates a sticky mess around the rim of the opening. In particular, the appearance of the clear is a steange looking gel. I would not buy again.

Tea Tree Oil is so good for so many things, and this shampoo did not disapoint. After the first use, my hair was softer and my flakes were gone; this was after I had used many dandruff shampoos fron the inexpensive to the pricey and nothing helped my recent flare up. If you are truly looking for a natural or oeganic product, this isnt it. But if you are looking for a good quality shampoo that will balance your scalp, I would highly recommend. One caveat; it seemed to take about a week before the flakes were gone for good.

Jergens Natural Glow Healthy Complexion Daily Facial Moisturizer with SPF 20
Love, love, love! (EDIT)
**** 4/14/12: Sadly, I have to edit this posting and change the rating to a 7. I am currently in vacation in Arizona and I find the moisturizing properties are not enough and the color would be great for the winter, but for the summer the medium/tan is not enough color, and I am fair/med in the summer - I should see more color. I think after this bottle is gone, I will stick to a regular moisturizer with a self tanner. The Jergens Express is nice. ***** Ladies, please be advised right off the bat that this is not a self-tanner; however, it WILL provide you with a decent SPF (20) and keep your skin from looking pale or sallow. I tend to have fair skin with an olive undertone and I use the medium/tan version. I actually think that most people could use the medium/tan, with the fair/light reserved for those that are freckled and very light skinned. I originally started using it day and night, thinking of it as more or a self-tanner, and I think it caused a bit of a breakout on my cheeks, and I went back to using it just in the morning and it works perfectly. I still apply a self-tanner at night but I just love this product. It does exactly what it says. The only reason I did not give it a 10 is because typically I don't care for products that have a SPF in them. I usually use a really good SPF like Blue Lizard or something with zinc oxide, even on my face. (I like Coppertone Sensitive w/Zinc Oxide.) My Derm once told me that if you buy a product that has SPF in it, the "molecules" do not interact well which results in a lesser SPF and a lesser foundation, or whatever it is mixed with. All in all, give it a try!

I love any budget product that I can use for various things, and this brush is that and then some. It's actually meant for contouring the crease area, but I have also been able to use it to apply concealer in a pinch. The ELF studio set is a really chic looking set of brushes for about $3 a brush, or less if you buy as a set. I also have not had issues with bristles falling out, which is a HUGE plus.

This is an okay set of tweezers; I don't think it has anything to do with the quality or the price. I have bought expensive tweezers that haven't worked also. For me, I just have a lot of fine hairs and I found that this set of tweezers is great at pulling out the thick or coarse hairs, but the ones that are almost invisible were more of a challenge!

I am a budget beauty, and this is another great find from ELF. The bristles are soft and smooth, and it applied foundation just as well as my old department store foundation brush. Not only will I repurchase, but I will definitely recommend ELF brushes. For only $3, it does an even better job than I expected. One noticeable difference between my old brush and this one: the ELF version is not quite as thick. When I swipe it on my face, I can feel the difference (less bristles); however, it still works great and my skin is left flawless. One caveat: try to buy in stores as their online site does not accept returns.

So surprised by the other reviews! :) I thought that this cleanser was a nice, BASIC cleanser but really was a bit lackluster. My skin is also oily/combo and I decided to switch to this cleanser for the winter months, with the hope that it would be less drying than say, a salicyclic acid cleanser would be. For the most part it is, but I found it to be rather thick. I had to use very little (which was great for the wallet as one reviewer pointed out) and lots of water. However, be sure to rinse VERY well. With this cleanser, more than others, I felt either a "film" on my skin or tightness. I also get breakouts and blackheads, and saw no improvement at all with this product. My skin is clear for the most part, but I do get the occasional blemish and saw no difference with this cleanser. In addition, my skin would look clean afterwards but didn't FEEL clean. It's just okay; for me, I will try something different when I am done with this product. If you have any skin concerns at all, other than oily/combo skin, I would try something else; otherwise, I think you will be disappointed. :(

This is a fantastic drugstore conditioner with a yummy smell! It reminds me of coconut. :) I have been using it with the shampoo and I have not been disappointed. The conditioner is super thick and can even double as a "treatment;" I glob some on my hair and sleep with a shower cap on, rinsing with cool water in the morning. Although I am still iffy on their shampoos due to the dryness that can result from the huge amount of sulfates they use, this conditioner is a great pick and I would recommend to anyone.

I LOVE Wet N WIld, but this eyeliner is just not their best product. It is very hard to apply as other reviewers have stated; you have to press very hard. I didn't notice it staying on longer than any other eyeliner either. But as Little Bunny stated, this is a great budget brand to try and test new products, and many of their products I buy and use every day. This is just not going to be one of them! To add, the cap does not stay on the pencil which can be really annoying. It "sits" on top instead.
