I am very fair skinned, and as so, it feels impossible for me to get any colour during the summer. So after seeing the reviews for this product I decided to try it out. I used the medium to tan lotion, and got it at wal mart for 4.50CND.
What I like about this product is that it smells pretty good, it has a very subtle shimmer to it, and it really does produce great colour if you use it correctly. I found that you dont necessarily need to exfoliate every time you use it, in fact I only exfoliate twice a week and apply this everyday. It goes on very easily and blends well, with the exception of the knees and elbows as some girls have said already. To get around that, an half hour before you should exfoliate dry spots (so it absorbs evenly) and then apply thin layers using the palms of your hands, and do wash your hand immediately after. It takes 10 minutes to dry, so just stay naked. Don't put it on when your wet otherwise it will streak cause it cant absorb right.
There isn't really a downside to this product, unless that is you don't put it on right, which is honestly not too hard to do. If you want a quick tan, this isn't the best product, but for someone who is terrified of being orange and blotchy this product is great. Ive used many before and were disappointed with the results, but this one is perfect for me. Everyone comments on how tan I have gotten, and I keep my little secret that it only took me 10 minutes each morning.
Hope I helped! If you want more, just send me a question!

I got a sample of this mascara when I bought Clinique's 3 step skin system a while back, and I loved it. I'm not someone who usually pays a lot for mascara...and for a student living on their own, yea its a little pricey, but it does work great.
What I love about this mascara is the length that it gives you. What I find different in this one then all the others I find is that this mascara makes your lashes look long and dark, without stiffing them together or looking fake. The wand is easy to get to the little lashes, and deposits the most mascara at the bottom where it should to create fullness.
As much as I love this product, it does still have its minor set backs. The formula for example, does go on very wet and is easy to smudge if you blink too quickly, although it does dry fairly quick. Secondly, coming from a brand known to care for its sensitive skin, if i wear it more that 3 days in a row it does give me very sore red and flaky skin in the outer corners of my eyes, which then from there after makes any makeup hurt.
All in all, this mascara is good for those with sensitive skin for a less than daily use. It looks great, but it can be tricky to get right because of its wet formula. If you have the money, and are looking for a high quality mascara I would recommend this as it gives similar results as Diorshow mascara, which in my experience is a little more pricey but just as effective.
If you have a question feel free to ask me!
