I have to say, that this mascara is very average. I think Maybelline is a really good mascara company, but in my opinion, this is not one of their better ones.
The packaging (and purple tube) is really pretty and girly, and unlike the Colossal, the scent is very mild, which is actually nice.
I don't think it compares whatsoever with REAL false eyelashes, but it is a good volumizing mascara. Just because I think it's average though, doesn't mean I don't think it would be perfect for someone else.
I like my eyelashes long, dark, dramatic, and hard. In order to get the look that I like, I had to put SOOO many coats of it, and at that rate, the tube would be empty in a week. I think this mascara would be perfect for someone who wants to go up one level from the "natural mascara look". It adds a bit of the dramatic look, but not over the top.
If you don't want a very dramatic look, I think this mascara is great for you :)

I was expecting this to be a great moisterizer since it's been an amazing seller for years now! Unfortunately, my experience was beyond terrible.
1. The smell is horrible.
2. Its so thick that it takes a hundred years to absorb.
3. Worst of all, it made me break out! I tried it in the winter time when my arms get really really dry. Literally less than a day of using it, my arms got these horrible, teensy tiny bumps all over, and it was SOO dry and itchy! And the worst part about it, was that the rash was so bad that anti-rash creams did not work on it! For a little over a week, my arms were ugly as hell and felt so irritated and and sore to even move them.
Considering my skin is not even all that sensitive, I would never recommend this product to anyone. Ever. But if you're one of those people who have been using Skin so Soft for a hundred years now, I guess you're one of the lucky ones! :P

This is THE BEST face sunscreen I've ever used!
Most facial sunscreens leave me with random breakouts, or those little bumps under my eyes, but not this one!
Though the SPF is 45, you may think it would be too heavy, but infact, it's the complete opposite! Once you put it on, it leaves this light, silky smooth finish that you would never get with any other sun screen. Infact, I've even replaced it with my moisterizer! Because of that unique, sheer feeling it leaves, it's extremely easy to apply foundation or cover up right on top because it flawlessly smooths it on.
And, because this is an important factor to consider, the scent is great too! A very lightly scented product, can actually be nice for a change.
I recommend this to everybody and anybody!

This lip stuff is FABULOUS!
I'll just get right to the point.
I would recommend buying this if you have the most minor or most sever chapped lips. Even when they get that horrible flakey-crackiness from the harsh winter, it still works! And the best part, is that it literally works INSTANTLY!
The second you apply it, you can feel it tingling! It has such a fresh, minty feeling that you just want more!
After about 1-3 days of applying it regularily, I bet your chapped lips will be back to normal, if not better! :)
The only thing I don't like about this product is you have to stick your finger in the jar and put it on your lips, which personally, I think is pretty gross (messy, and germy).
Other than that, what are you waiting for? Go get some!

Gillette Venus Embrace Razor and Razor Heads

I have to say, that this is one of the best razors I have ever used.
Since it came out, I have been using Venus Breeze (the purple one with the huge strips of soap), and nothing else.
I got this in a free sample in the mail, and am actually going to switch to Venus Embrace! :)
1. The handle is a great shape for holding it comfortably.
2. The head is a pretty good size (not too small, not too big).
3. It's pretty!! Limegreen blue = my favourite!
4. It leaves your skin VERY soft after shaving.
5. And the best part, very little razor burn!! After shaving, I usually have big, red, painful razor burn and ingrown hairs, but not with this razor :)
The ONLY thing that might not be as great about this razor is that I found it needed to be rinsed more often than other razors, as in, it clogged with hair pretty easily.
I definitely recommend this razor to anyone! Even people with sensitive skin!

I really love the company Biore, but I don't think these black head strips are that great.
I went through a whole box and barely noticed a difference.
You can see that it's working because you can actually see the black heads on the strip when you take it off, but it doesn't show when you look at your nose.
Not only do they do just an average job, but the price is RIDICULOUS! It came to almost $15 for 8 strips! It's a good thing you don't use them everyday or you would be broke!
The only reason why I would SORT OF recommend this product is because there is literally no other brand name that makes these things, so if you want to give it a try, this is the brand you'll have to go for.
I do like how it turns hard though, like paper mache.. That part is neat :D

Worst hair removal cream I have ever used.
1. Doesn't work! Even when you exceed the time limit they suggest.
2. Smells HORRIBLE.
3. It's so thick that you have to use a lot of it.
4. Expensive for the quality and name brand.
I don't recommend anyone buying this product, you'll just be throwing your money away.

This is THE BEST hair removal cream I have ever used! (Sorry, the picture won't work :( )
Hair removal creams are one of the hardest products to buy because so many of them do not work!
I used to have dark-ish arm hair, but I started using this cream on my arms once every 2 months, and after using it about 3 times, my arm hair is now light brown-blonde :)
But wait, there's more!
- You literally only need to keep it on for 5 minutes!
- It's cheap ($7-$8)
- Unlike other hair removal products, it smells good! The cream smells like peaches, and that gross, chemical smell is very light.
- Once you have finished the hair removal, it leaves your skin SUPER SMOOTH, and smelling like peaches!
- It isn't very harsh on the skin, so that means no hives/itching, etc.
I recommend this product to anyone, with all different hair types!

I just want to say that this perfume is one of the best smelling ones I've ever used!
It smells sooo good, like roses and sandlewood, amber and pomegranate, all in one! It's a VERY sexy, romantic scent that is great for summer, winter, night, or day!
It's one of those perfumes as well that when mixed with your body/sweat, it makes it smell even better!
It comes in a 175ml bottle which is a great size, and the bottle is so pretty and pink :)
The only bad thing about this perfume is that it doesn't stay on for very long :( I guess that's the down-side of a body mist.

I have mixed feelings on this nail polish.. It's not very good quality but the colour makes me keep using it :P
1. It's very thick, which makes it difficult for applying, let alone a second coat.
2. If you don't put a clear coating in top, it will literally start to chip in minutes :(
3. It's pretty slow-drying.
4. The colours are GORGEOUS! I have silver but there are many bright, bold colours!
