My teeth always seem to have a yellow tint to them no matter how much I brush it. I honestly just bought this on an impulse because it claimed to remove up to 90% of surface stains in 5 days - can't say it actually did that, but I can see a visible difference in whiteness in my teeth since I started using this ! -

#gotitfree through the Product Review Club - Thank you very much Nivea !!
I was excited to try this product because this would simplify my daily routine by one step AND save me a lot of money (from the expensive moisturizers & the primers). One of the biggest surprises for me was that it didn't instantly absorb as I thought it would - it actually took quite a bit of massaging into my face before it got absorbed (but maybe its because my skin is not as dry as others). Once it was on my face, it felt almost PLASTIC. I'm skeptical on how much moisturizing it is providing for my face but it is the absolute smoothest surface !!
My make up didn't last as long using this. I typically use the Smashbox primer and I guess it has a more adhesive surface for my make up. With this product, my foundation would sit on top and gradually rub off throughout the day (even though I use a make up setting spray).
I'll continue to keep using it and see if I can make small modifications to my make up routine to make it work because I love the product otherwise !

I used to use the mattifying primer (with anti-acne treatment), which I loved at the time - so I decided to give this a try since my skin isn't acne prone anymore. This is the worst primer ever !! It is so thick and gives a sticky feeling that I feel like its difficult to spread my foundation evenly over my face after applying this. At this quality, I think they should be marketing it as a cheap drug store brand around $10 -

My optometrist recommended these to me after she found out that I don't remove make up very well under my eye lid area. I gave these a try and they definitely work to solve that problem, but the wipes are SOOOOO soapy that I feel like I'm being messy trying to get clean. The wipes are also too big - I only need a fraction of what it is to give my two lids a wipe. It definitely seemed more like a waste to use it -

I was on the hunt for a new makeup setting spray after Urban Decay decided to alter their formula and make it smell super toxic. The pretty packaging caught my sight and after reading about the science / biotechnology behind the product, I decided to buy it. As a refreshing, hydrating spray, I think it is a great product (although very overpriced). As a setting spray, I don't think its very good. I still get makeup transfer after using this and my makeup definitely does not last throughout the day. I'll keep it as a hydrating mist - the nozzle spays a very light fine mist which I love. But it doesn't work to replace my UD setting spray -

I've been using the Urban Decay for more than 5 years and when they decided to change the formula that makes it smell toxic, I had to switch products since it was making me gag. When it comes to effectiveness, they're relatively comparable. I do think the UD formula is a little better though when the weather gets really cold and moisty / wet - MUFE doesn't stop make up from transferring onto clothes, mitts, etc. The other thing I don't like about the MUFE one in comparison is the application. It is a HEAVY spray as opposed to a light mist. I have to hold it reaaaallly far away, otherwise it leaves splatters on my face. But I've actually transferred the product to another bottle with a better spray nozzle, so its not a big deal. Other than that, I'm now completely converted to MUFE's mist & spray because I can't stand the smell of the new UD formula -

I wear thin liners every single day because I want to keep my thongs as clean as possible (so that they last). I've been using always & carefree, so it is my first time trying u by kotex. I think they're all quite comparable and at this point, I'll just buy the cheapest brand. One thing I did notice was that u by kotex has a lot more waste than the other brands. For a product that's so thin, I find it quite environmentally unfriendly. Otherwise, I really enjoy using these for every day ! -

THIS IS THE BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK. I absolutely adore this moisturizer so so much. I was lucky to have found this for $10 at Winners (but I would definitely pay what it retails for originally when I run out because that's how amazing it is). The product is extremely hydrating and makes your face glow from within. For a 120mL jar, this is really a steal. It is environmentally friendly and organic. The main ingredients are Rose Hip Oil, Avocado, Pomegranate, and Kakadu Plum. No bad ingredients, no animal testing, carbon neutral - just so many great things !! I've been slowly converting all my products to the sukin brand because the products are absolutely amazing and very affordable - close to drug store prices. I would recommend the facial recovery serum to use underneath this cream. Other products I'm currently using is their eye cream, body lotion, and detoxifying face mask. -

I've been obsessed with the Benefit brow line since it launched. This is the third product I tried (besides Brow Zings & Brow Vo which are now my staple brow products) and I was a little disappointed. The product definitely "gives" you brows - it darkens the hairs and fills it in. What I don't like about it is that it doesn't have a lot of hold and doesn't do a good job taming / combing down my brows. I also was not a fan of the fat tip because I couldn't get the precision to shape and do the ends of my brows -

This is a great idea by smashbox to double up your glossy lipsticks and make it matte. When I put it on my hands to swatch, it definitely instantly mattifies your lipstick. On my lips ... it just felt really heavy. And it has no staying power on my lips. Not a fan of the product because it's not as practical as I thought, but it's a good idea if they can improve the formula -
