If you have tried the spray dry shampoos and didn't like them this is for you. I will never use any other brand I love this stuff!

This is a very thick moisturizing cream that is full of beneficial ingredients for the skin.
Honestly it's so heavy I found it hard to spread evenly into my skin.
I noticed my skin looked smoother, softer and my few stretchmark's seemed slightly less noticeable after using it for a month. I think this cream actually can help the appearance of stretch marks after a while due to the moisturizing and nourishing properties. It definitely won't make your stretch marks go away but I would recommend it for making them a bit more tolerable.

Unlike most diaper creams, this one has a more liquid texture, that absorbs into the skin fairly quickly.
I don't think it has as much of a barrier effect as other creams.
However, I did find that after using it on my sons rashy area it seemed to calm down and go away quicker than usual.
This cream seemed to have a soothing effect which is awesome.
It was also nice because there was no fragrance, I think fragrance can irritate a diaper rash further.
I think this is a great cream for sensitive babies.

Let me start off by saying that I have horrible undereye darkness and puffiness due to chronic allergies. I also have very sensitive skin.
I was skeptical that this eye cream would help anything under my eyes. I've been using it for over 2 weeks and I am pleasantly surprised. My eye area looks much more even toned and the broken blood vessels under them seem less noticeable. There is still some darkness and puffiness, but I'd say this cream has reduced it by about 50%.
The consistency is really thick so only a tiny bit is needed. The tube will last a very long time. It's very moisturizing and I find that it actually plumps those pesky fine lines under the eyes!
It works really well under makeup too, I let it sink in for about 15 mins then I do my concealer. It seems to glide on much easier and looks much smoother after using this cream.
This eye cream is unfragranced, and it hasn't caused me any irritation or breakouts, which is wonderful.
I would recommend this to anyone since it works well at moisturizing, but also for fine lines and slight puffiness/darkness.

I just got this on a whim because I wanted a deep brown color (I got espresso). First off was super impressed with the pigment!
I put it on at 8:30 AM, sort of in a rush and it went on butter smooth and so easy that I could not believe I was using a Revlon eyeliner.
Had a bit of a meltdown and was crying a bit in the afternoon...mascara flaked bit but the liner did not budge!
Took a nap for an hour.. mascara flaked into my eye but the liner was still perfectly in place.
Worked - came home and at 2AM my eyeliner still looked perfect.. I am stunned.
Hands down the best drugstore eyeliner I ever tried! It performs just as well as the Urban Decay 24/7 liners.
And, if there is any lash enhancement that would just be the icing on the cake - but I would buy this again just because it works so well and stays put.

Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Oil

This is a really good cleansing oil. It works quickly and effectively.
It will take off all makeup, but I find that sometimes it won't remove all my mascara so I have to use a separate remover for that.
Otherwise it's fast and easy to use, and it doesn't have any irritants or fragrance like a lot of the cleansing oils out there.
My only complaint is that if I use this too often my skin will start to get dry as it really strips all the oil from your skin. I use it 1-3 times a week and it's fine for those lazy nights I just want a quick cleanse.
If you are curious about cleansing oils this is definitely one to check out!

I've tried a few dry shampoos, and I don't like them. tresemme just didn't cut it, neither did got2be or batiste. They all dried out my hair like straw I'm assuming because of the alcohol content. I found batiste barely even abosorbed oil! Just made my hair smell good.
Enter this delightful powder from cake! I'm in love with this. There is no alcohol or spraying so it doesn't dry my hair out at all. It actually saves me time if I'm in a rush - All I do is rub the powder into sections of my scalp and it totally absorbs the oils, makes my hair feel clean again and smells really great. I don't even care that it is expensive, it works for me so I will buy it again :) If you have tried the spray dry shampoos and didn't like them this is for you.

I have dry skin and in winter it gets dull and lifeless. Any illuminating product appeals to me, but this one was reccomended by a beauty blogger who has dry skin as well.
A bit of a heavy price tag, but it is so concentrated all I need is one pump for my whole face, I think it will last a long time.
I have fair skin and this just mixed with moisturizer gives such a nice glow! But I like to mix it with foundation. It makes my super pale face look brighter and livelier without any sparkles or glitter.
One thing I have found that it works amazing as a primer (at least for me.)
I tried it before foundation/powder and it made everything stay on all day! And thankfully it hasn't caused me any breakouts, which is awesome. Love this, highly recommend!

Love this mascara. It has a subtle vanilla scent that I really like.
The packaging is beyond cute, I adore it. Sticks out from all the other boring black tubes.
Gives both length and good volume. Color is nice and dark. The brush is a bit large (just like all PF mascaras) but it works well on top lashes, especially when you want to build up the volume. Very tricky to use on bottom lashes I don't recommend it.
Formula is quite thick, slightly dry.
My only complaint is that it slightly flakes under the eyes. It can also take a while to remove. Overall I really like it, multiple coats can make my lashes look fake.

I have been using this palette almost daily since I got it. I love it! Lately I've been wanting to do a more 'neutral' lighter smokey eye and this is the perfect palette to do it with. I love the selection of neutral taupe colors, because on fair skin most 'taupe' shades turn either dark brown or purple. This is perfect.
If you want more drama I'd suggest getting the natural at night palette, that one is much more pigmented :)
