I've spent quite an unhealthy amount of money on skin products and this is one product that is totally worth every penny (even though it is very affordable). It has changed my skin for the better. I used to suffer from a significant amount of small sized acne all over my forehead. By using this product every night my acne has greatly diminished. My skin also appears very smooth in the morning. I highly recommend this product! -

First off, I'd like to say that I have very dry, flaky skin and I am probabaly going to switch over to this lotion. The main reason being that this lotion does not feel as thick and heavy on my skin. Once it dries the feeling is gone as with the feeling of dryness. It applies smoothly, so it doesn't take as long to apply. There's also a pleasant scent.
I'm also pleased that this product is cruelty free and the bottle is recyclable. I value items that are ethically made.

I'm very happy that I have received this product, because my old "invisible" deodorant was staining my clothes. This product does not discolour my clothing if applied in a thin layer as directed. It has a beautiful clean scent which lasts almost all day. This is why it will always be in my gym bag!

There are A LOT of mixed reviews regarding this product and I can understand why. Please read this review if you are unsure about purchasing this product. I have been using this wax for about 2 years now, so hear me out.
I'll start with the not so good aspect about this wax. The wax is said to be for legs and body. It doesn't work so well on my legs. There tends to be quite a bit of hair that remains. This would probably be my only complaint.
I recommend this wax for use on coarser hair, like for underarms and bikini. I have tried many, many hair removal methods as well as a number of waxes and this one is the best one for those areas.
It's easy to work with. Simply heat in the microwave and apply. It's easy to pull off once applied (that is if you are ok with waxing). A reason for this ease is that the wax does NOT pull off your skin. It has a formula which sticks to the hairs, making if PERFECT for the sensitive bikini area. The liquid form makes it easy to spread the wax onto otherwise difficult to wax areas. The wax lasts me through quite a few uses (I only use it for bikini and underarms).
I've recommended this wax to many of my friends and they have loved it.
I notice that there are many negative reviews. I feel that many of these reviews are based on usage on legs alone and not compared to use on other body parts. Some people may be first time waxers and may just be frustrated with the waxing experience in general. Also, these people do not have any previous waxing products to compare this one too.
Using this product for 2 years I have gained some experience with this product. If you are thinking of purchasing this product or already have it these tips may be of help
-rub oil onto your hands prior to waxing. This helps to prevent the wax from sticking strongly to the hands.
-use fresh new wood applicator sticks for each session
-rub oil to rid of remaining wax
-unlike wax strips, this method doesnt allow for a place to grip the applied wax strip. Make the end where you will be removing the wax thicker and pry it a little before it dries completely. This will help to make the process less painful.
Remember that everyone is different and may respond to the product differently. I am only providing my honest opinion, in hopes that it may help someone.

This powder golden hilight provides a beautiful shimmery glow. It looks very elegant and is not overwhelming shiny. The shimmer is also very fine, which is an important quality I look for in highlights. As a result it provides a beautiful healthy glow.
Although my skin is on the dryer side, the highlighter held up well. It didn't last the 12 hours but it lasted for majority of the day. I noticed towards the end of the day the shimmer had spread more lower onto my cheeks, so it did not exactly stay put. I would recommend applying a moisturizing product before applying this hilight.

A little expensive, but a little goes a looong way! (my only con regarding this product)
This highlight is extremely easy to apply, no brush is needed. This makes it perfect for an everyday on the go glow. When applied it smoothes out easily, leaving a soft highlight that is not so blindingly harsh (but can be built to get that look if wanted). I find that this highlight lasts longer than my powder highlights. It lasts the day, even on my dry skin.
I love wearing this liquid highlighter on its own when I'm not wearing any makeup. I also like building it up when I'm going out for the night.
The price may be up there, but it is a product that lasts awhile and performs well.

I keep this hand lotion in my school bag to moisturize my usually dry hands. My hands are often dry, especially in the winter months, so I always have to have lotion on hand.
I really like the scent of this product, it is not too frangrant either, which I prefer. The lotion feels light when put on the skin and spreads easily. The size is nice and compact so it's easy to carry around.
Although a good product, there are other similar products I can find at similar or even lower prices. There is not much that attracts me to this product specifically.

Buxom Full-On Lip Polish
It's an ok gloss. I wasn't a big fan of it due to the sticky feeling on my lips. The colour payoff wasn't that significant either. I wore it out a couple of times but simply do not reach for it anymore.

Fresh Soy Face Cleanser
Having dry skin I tend to avoid facewash, as it only causes me acne. This face wash would not do that instaed it left my skin feeling clean and moisturized. It also helped to visisbly reduce my acne.

Julep Brilliance Glycolic Hand and Body Scrub
Hands down the best exfoliator I have tried. It has the perfect gritty texture and always smoothens my skin after each use. A must for those with dry skin.
