Considering this moisturizer is in a tube the texture is actually quite creamy and thick, like a body butter, but absorbs super fast like a lotion! No sticky or greasy residue. Applying the cream is effortless and smooth. I was a little disappointed with the scent. I purchased the Fresh Vanilla Lemon. It doesn't remind me of a bright citrusy-clean scent. It's almost more along the lines of a floral fragrance, which I'm not a huge fan of. Grandma's potpourri anyone? -

I'm sad to say that I'm pretty disappointed with this toner. I was excited to use this as I was very impressed with other products from this brand. The camphor in this toner just feels too irritating on the skin. I wouldn't describe my skin as sensitive so I can't imagine how irritating it would be on someone with sensitivities. My skin also feels very unbalanced where I'm feeling more dehydrated yet more oily than before. Because of this unbalance, I'm experiencing little breakouts on my forehead. Now, what I dislike most about this product is that it leaves a shiny film on my skin. As an oily skin type, this is a huge pet peeve of mine. I expect a product called 'Grease Relief' to leave you with a matte finish, not add more shine. -

These blotting papers are simple to use and very effective. The paper absorbs oil immediately leaving the skin looking soft, and leaving your makeup flawless. My favourite part of this product other than it's effectiveness is the mirror provided in the compact. Perfect for on the go. -

The texture is a little richer than I'd like. The formula is meant for combination/oily skin but I feel it would be more appropriate for those with normal to dry skin types. The cream is a pale pinkish colour with a slight iridescent shimmer. Again, anyone with oily skin doesn't want added shimmer in their cream, my skin produces enough shine on it's own. I also felt it left my skin feeling tacky and didn't absorb well. My skin just felt overly oily most of the time. Ultimately I wasn't a huge fan of this cream since I didn't like the feel on my skin. -

After one week I found it helped diminish the fine lines around my forehead, improv the texture of my skin and add a radiant glow. What I find really exciting about this product is that you're not limited when choosing between which skin concern you'd like to target. This serum pretty much covers it all. So although it's a very, very expensive product I'd say it's earned a thumbs up! -

I use this cleansing oil every night before my foaming cleanser and I actually get excited to use it! The smell is so relaxing that I actually take a moment before rinsing. I'm lame, I know. It also does a great job at removing makeup. Even waterproof makeup doesn't stand a chance. After using the cleanser it doesn't leave my skin feeling oily either, it washes off very easily leaving my skin feeling smooth and perfectly balanced. Oil Obsessed, I'm obsessed! -

I used the Power Bright system 3 times in one week (as per the company recommendations) and found it gave my skin a noticeable radiant boost! The fine lines around my forehead were smoothed out and my skin looked more plump and hydrated. During my first use, I noticed a tingling sensation when applying step 2 and 3. However, during the second and third application of the treatments I didn't feel it as strong and it felt more comfortable on my skin. If you have very dehydrated or sensitive skin I wouldn't recommend this product as it might irritate the skin too much. -
Sun Bum After Sun Cool Down Lotion

I've kept this lotion handy all summer and after hanging out in the hot sun all day I don't want a heavy cream sticking to my clothes. So naturally I love its light, non-greasy texture. I'm a sunscreen fanatic so I haven't tested this cream out on a sunburn (yay me!) but I do find it helps preserve a tan better than using just aloe vera after sun products. The fragrance is a strong pina colada scent, which I love, but others may find overwhelming. -

After using this product for a few weeks I'm pretty happy with my results! Every use leaves my skin looking soft and radiant. With its detoxifying effects it keeps my skin clearer and healthier too! The fact that it's super easy to use and works quickly are bonuses for my busy schedule. I will say, however, that I did experience a tightening effect on my skin which leads me to feel that it's slightly drying. So great for a summer mask when my skin is feeling oilier than normal but I'll probably leave it on the sidelines during the colder months when my skin needs more moisture. All in all a super original and effective mask. -

It's been a few weeks of using Neutrogena's Healthy Skin eye cream and I'm feeling pretty indifferent. I really haven't seen any noticeable results, but it's done it's job keeping my skin moisturized. Ultimately I'd say this cream is very mediocre. So while there are definitely better options out there, this cream is a good choice for those who are looking for a more affordable eye cream. -
