I bought the Mary Kay TimeWise Cellu-Shape Contouring System duo a few years ago because I am terrified of getting anymore cellulite. I exercise regularly and try to eat as healthy as possible but unfortunately cellulite and stretch marks run in my family.
When I hit puberty, I went through a growth spur which led to A LOT of stretch marks and a few hints of cellulite on my lower body. When I saw the before and after's for this product I was almost convinced that it would work for me.
The TimeWise Cellu-Shape kit comes with two bottles, one to be used in the morning and one at night. Both bottles must've lasted me about half a year, I applied it religiously and rarely missed any days. The morning lotion smells fantastic and it made my skin softer than ever. I don't know if it was just me but I could feel a slight tingling sensation on my skin whenever I applied the night gel. However, I didn't see much of a difference in the cellulite itself. My skin felt amazing and it did feel a bit firmer but I believe if I would've kept going with the treatment it might have worked better on existing cellulite.

I love this scrub, but I do agree that it can make your skin a bit dry. My solution to that was to just use it every other day.
The smell is delicious, even my brother fell in love with this product! It actually made his acne improve which is great for such a cheap price.
I'll have to try using it on my elbows like maya88 mentioned, I don't know why I never thought about that!

I actually received this item as a gift for being a new customer on the e.l.f. website. I'm not a big fan of lip gloss/lip stick so on the daily basis I just wear chap stick but I was actually surprised with e.l.f.'s Candy Shop Lip Gloss. I got the Cherry flavored one and It doesn't seem like it's as sticky as most other lip products. It doesn't really taste like anything which is great for me. I believe it only costs about $3 or less so it is definitely worth the price and more! -

I love, love, LOVE this eye shadow!
My friend recently told me about the e.l.f. website and how they were giving free shipping to orders of $25 and up. I was a bit skeptical about it first since it was so cheap, but I was totally proven wrong when I received my products. It only took about a week and a half to get it and with $25.50 I was able to purchase 18 items! That is absolutely incredible to me since I'm on a tight budget and even grocery store make up can get expensive.
The e.l.f. Mineral Eyeshadow goes on very smoothly and I love the colors! Along with the Eyeshadow primer, it stays on all day and you don't have to worry about creases or reapplying it later. It's amazing how this inexpensive item can completely knock out other more expensive known brand eye shadows!

I'm actually surprised to see these reviews here! I've been using the TRESemme Smooth & Silky Conditioner for over 5 years now and I love it. I have shoulder-length, medium thick, semi-wavy hair also not dyed and it's one of the few conditioners that doesn't make my hair oily or dry. The main reason I bought it was because it smelled so good and their big bottles are pretty cheap.
When I use it, I make sure to spread it evenly throughout my hair with either just my fingers or a comb. I leave it on for about 2 minutes or so then rinse it out. I can feel how soft it makes it in the shower already. The only complaint I have with it is that I have to use almost a handful to get it on all of my hair.

This is by far my favorite tooth past ever. I was a bit skeptical about the new foaming mechanism but it works great. I have very sensitive teeth but haven't had a problem with any foods ever since I started using Sensodyne. The gentle whitening works great, too. You won't notice it over night, but within a month or so you'll notice how much shinier your teeth are! -

I bought two of the Olay Body Wash Plus Creme Ribbons that were on sale at Walmart (2 for 1) thinking that since it was by Olay, it would most likely be good since I like most of their products. After using it a couple of times, it did make my skin a little bit softer but I had a big issue with the smell. It was kind of strong for me and even my husband noticed and didn't like it too much. I was pretty bummed, especially since I had bought two bottles. Maybe the other ones would smell better, but I would definitely not buy the Creme Ribbons again. -

If you have sensitive skin, this works great. I don't need to reapply it after I shower so it works for the whole day.
However, I've been using it for a few months now and I haven't noticed my underarms getting "visibly smoother." I was somewhat disappointed but I have continued to use it because at least it doesn't give me bumps =/

I have also been using the Mary Kay concealer for a couple of years and it's probably one of the best I've ever used. It goes on very smoothly and it's not flaky on your skin like a lot of other similar products. I got mine as a sampler and used it for a long time. It's definitely worth the price! -
