I started using pore strips years ago and I've usually found them to general be effective, but I find them even more so now, perhaps it's because of my routine? maybe. The pricing is alright for the different package options, but I would prefer if it was slightly cheaper.
My results have varied upon use but are usually pretty good and now and then I'm amazed at the work these things do. I find if you use them after a hot shower your results will be better than just after a face cleaning. I think my results have been even better after I used some kind of deep pore cleansing face mask before a warm shower, then followed by using the strip. So I would suggest using it after not only washing your face but also after a hot shower or after steaming your face for better result. Even if you don't see the results right away on your nose you can sometimes see a big difference once you take a look on the strip!
So good luck!

I found a sample of this product in a magazine (along with a $2 off coupon!) and tried it almost right away. It made my bare nails look shiny and more polished.
The claims:
"Creates top coat shine in seconds that lasts 3 days"
It did create a nice shine that lasted and looked as if I had a clear top coat on my nails, which I did not.
"*400% shinier than bare nails"
As I said, yes it did give my nails more of a shine.
"Unique comfortable shape for easy use"
Again I didn't have much of a problem or issue with the shape of it.
Overall I liked what the results were from the product sample and I went out and bought one. I think its great if you don't want to have any polish on and especially if you still want your nails to look great (say if you're at work, going for a date, whatever!). I think its even great for in your purse maybe, if you feel your nails are looking a little dull and you want to spruce them up.

This stuff is great for when you need a quick fix!
Normally I wash my hair every other day since I know you shouldn't wash it everyday and I've been trying to grow my hair out and get it healthy so sometimes I leave it longer than every other day. The problem I come across is that my hair sometimes get greasy/oily looking if I leave it over a day and a half. Problem solved! I got a few of the full size bottles of this and finally I decided to give it a try.
The bottle claims "revitalizes greasy, dull and lifeless hair between washes. Instantly leaves your hair feeling clean, full of body and smelling beautiful." This was true as far as I could tell. The scent was nice and I don't think it was ever overwhelming. My hair did look better after using it and definitely not really greasy anymore.
The bottle also says "Quick and convenient to use where ever you are." Again, true! I used this both at home before going out and while I was at work, it was a quick fiz when I needed it to be.
I would recommend this to those who are always on the go and busy and sometimes need a quick hair refresh! I think it would also be great for camping, trips, etc! Overall a good product.

I love these and own almost every one of them.
I find that the colour is true to what you see in the pots, it goes on great dry and if you want to use one of the great colours as a liner, wet your eyeliner brush a little and use these pigment for a bold streak of great colour. It has beautiful tones and I find them a little two tone-ish, you have the colour itself like purple, blue etc, but it shimmer and has a shine to it, I guess what I mean is that it has dimension to it. The lasting power is pretty good, I've worn them through normal days and even at a concert. I've been pretty pleased overall with this product, however I did find that often the container is slightly hard to open because it is sealed pretty tight.
INGREDIENTS: MICA, SILICA, SORBIC ACID
MAY CONTAIN/PEUT CONTENIR: TITANIUM DIOXIDE, BRONZE POWDER, IRON OXIDES, MANGANESE VIOLET, ULTRAMARINES, FERRIC FERROCYANIDE, CARMINE, ALUMINUM POWDER
DESCRIPTION (which I would say I agree with):
Let there be light! These highly pigmented loose eye shadows are made with fine pearl particules and minerals to create incredible shine and shimmer.
Use just a little for a more subtle effect or apply wet in a bold stroke for incredible luminescence. Available in convenient and fuss-free compacts, they contain the most beautiful shades. Be as mild or as wild as you wish!

So I received this product in a swagbag at an avent I attended and I have nothing negative to say about it! I even went out to grab it in another colour because I enjoyed the one I got.
It's one of those retractable eyeliners as opposed to the sharpened ones, which is what I prefer over having to sharpen it all the time, etc.
I tried both the Green and the Blue, now I preferred the blue but both were nice and that was just a personal preference.
The colour went on both my lashline and waterline easily. Both colours lasted throughout the whole day and didn't need much reapplying/retouching. It also came off pretty easily with my makeup remover/in the shower washing my face. The colour popped and was true to what they were suppose to be.
For anyone who wants an eyeliner pencil with a pop of colour and something fun, I would definitely recommend this product to them and you can bet I will continue to use it!
