I had clear skin up until I became an adult and started using make up. I went a little over board and piled so many crazy chemicals on my skin it finally freaked out and gave me some zits & blackheads. After the *break out* I realized the worst part of adult pimples was not over yet. I still had some major scarring to deal with & the blackheads refused to go any where! After some research I decided to try using chemical exfoliates [the sugar and salt were just not cutting it any more] and was lead to this little bottle of Magic. Within a week of use the size and color of my scars was seriously reduced. Even my husband complemented my skin! I have been using the product for around a month now and my scars are so tiny and my blackheads are pretty much gone! I think after another month my skin will probably look model perfect thanks to this formula! It seems kind of pricey & it is but a little product goes a long way and it will make you finally stop worrying about those spots on your face! Just remember to SPOT TREAT with this and do not just rub it all over! It will seriously mess up your unblemished skin!

I was using an Elemis cream cleanser but I realized that it contained pretty much every paraben known to man so I switched to this [plus it is over $10 cheaper]. I am very happy that I decided to ditch my old cleanser for this one. The formula feels just like a cream and feels so smooth and cool against my skin it is instantly relaxing. It leaves my skin feeling soft and glowing after I massage it in for a minute or two. I have oily skin that sometimes breaks out a little bit and I had no problems with this cleanser. Leaves my skin feeling so hydrated that I even go without a moisturizer sometimes! You cannot beat the ingredients list on this product! INGREDIENTS: Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Water, Dimethicone, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, PEG-8 Glyceryl Isostearate, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Leaf Extract, Epilobium Angustifolium Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Root Extract, Althaea Officinalis Root Extract, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Hydrogenated Rapeseed Alcohol, Xanthan Gum, Potassium Carbomer, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Oil

$40USD an Oz is really pushing it but if a product is good enough sometimes it can justify such a large price tag. Make Up For Ever HD starts off very promising with sleek packaging & a simple, sanitary pump dispenser. There are lots of colors to choose from and they have yellow & pink undertones in the line to fit any gal's needs. The formula itself is very lightweight and easy to blend, it almost instantly sinks into the skin. The coverage of this foundation is like that of a tinted moisturizer. It did not cover redness or scars very well. It also did not help with my under eye area very much. I have not taken a photo using this yet but the fact that it has no coverage in real life is a HUGE turn off for me. If this make up is only for photos I believe it should be a LOT cheaper. I do not have really bad skin, only three red acne scars and this product does not cover up a single one of them. All the other foundations I have tried have been cheaper and much more effective then this product. I suppose this formula is strictly for photos...

You cannot beat these prices! This brush is sturdy and gets the job done perfectly. The set is super chic looking and great for travel. My mother does not use anything but Sonia Kashuk because of how cheap and high quality this line is and she has been using make up for quite a bit of time. hehe. I would definitely recommend this or ecotools for your drugstore brush collection!

This eye shadow brush is *really* worth it if you purchase the five piece set. The taklon fibers are great at keeping their shape even with lots of washing. The bamboo handle is super sturdy and attached to the bristles tightly. It feels quite comfortable in my hand and is not so long that it is difficult to get close to my mirror [which is a big pet peeve of mine!]. This brush packs on the color and distributes it evenly. I like to pat my shadow on with this instead of sweeping it though. Definitely will be repurchasing this!

I love the scent of the Ice Shine line. I really like to use this particular Pantene formula for when I straighten my hair because this really helps with the flyaways. I really like the packaging it is very chic looking and easy to dispense product while in the shower. This is one of my favorite drugstore buys!

I love the packaging of Pantene's products. You can always get to the very last drop with this design. I never drop the bottle in the shower either which is nice. The formula always leaves my hair feeling smooth and manageable and the scent is just lovely! The Ice Shine is my favorite for straightening my hair. I swear this stuff does actually make it shine a little more!! Definitely cannot beat the quality and price of Pantene when it comes to drugstore brands.

I got the Samy Shampoo, Conditioner and Hairspray because it was cheap and smelled good at the drugstore. Big mistake! The shampoo made my hair feel like straw and the conditioner made my straw feel stringy and tangled. After I finally rinsed out that gunk with my *old* shampoo and conditioner I made the even bigger mistake of trying this spray. It is super sticky and made my hair instantly harden into a rock solid crust in some spots! The scent of it was pretty awful as well. I will definitely never purchase any more products from this line again!!!

I first used this product when I was around 10 years old. My older cousin slathered this on my face and it felt so cool and refreshing! We put cucumbers over our eyes and gossiped until this mask glued our mouths shut. The tube is easy to squeeze and open and close which is good because the gel is very sticky and tends to make a mess. Peeling it off does not hurt as long as you do not get your hair caught in it! Your face feels smoother and has a little flush and glow to it. The ingredients are not the best but it is gentle and relaxing for the price.

I always stayed away from Clinique products because I thought they looked a little *mature* for my age. After years of hearing positive reviews and being in need of a full coverage foundation I finally caved in and purchased this in "Stay Light". This foundation has the most coverage I have ever gotten from any liquid or powder. This stuff is more like a concealer to me! The color is kind of dark so I like to mix it with my moisturizer and use a stippling brush when applying. Not the most blendable formula and can feel mask-like if you apply too much. Dries very quickly and does not rub off onto my Hubby's clothes when we cuddle. I happen to love the packaging on this even though it is not the best for dispensing product it is so chic! I love it when things come in glass because plastic contains all these weird chemicals. The price on this foundation is totally worth it and I will definitely be trying out more Clinique products like this soon!
