I use Purity together with my clarisonic and it works really well. It doesn't foam up and dry out your skin like the typical SLS cleanser. Purity has a very soft, cream-like texture that feels very soothing on the skin. However, I wouldn't recommend using this alone to say your face if you seat makeup. I would use a makeup remover first or an oil cleaner and follow up with Purity. iMO, it doesn't remove eye makeup well, unless it's just light shadow. -

I got the mini version of this mascara as part of a birthday gift from Sephora. I would never shell out the money and pay for the full version of this macara -- there are many drugstore mascaras that would work much better. It weighs my lashes down, and gives NO volume. I guess if you are already blessed with natural my lush lakes this would work well. It does give a bit of lengthening and because the brush is so spikey, it does work well to separate so it's good for bottom lashes. -

I have the green scent, and I was a bit disappointed with this lip balm. It's not very hydrating, and a bit waxy, but I find it works well under lipstick. I wouldn't recommend this for chapped lips, but it's ok for everyday use, and the ingredients are great so you don't have to worry about licking it from your lips. Also has a bit of a sweet taste.
The design is cute, but not very practical - I still prefer a stick/tube form. To me, the summer fruit scent smells the best! I would probably only buy that one again. I do prefer this over burt bee's - that one is even MORE waxy.

Origins GinZing Brightening Mascara

This is my go-to mascara for day time use! I love this mascara! Not only does it keep my lashes soft ( no crunchiness here!), but it gives great volume and length without clumping, AND I don't get raccoon eyes under. I haven't figured out how this mascara is brightening though.
I always use a lash primer, but the staying power of this mascara is significantly better than a lot of other brands I have tried ( clinique, lancome, sephora). It's not too expensive, about $22 at the Bay, but it comes in a fat tube ( and a fat brush) so you get a lot of product for your money.

I've been using this shampoo along with the conditioner for a while now. I love the unique herbal smell! This is good for people that wash their hair everyday, because it does not dry out the hair ( no harsh cleansing detergents like sodium lauryl sulfate). I would recommend this for people with dry, brittle hair. At the same time, this is not great for oil regulation, and my hair gets oily faster when I use this. It's also very pricey --- I got mine on sale for $14 for 300 mL and it was STILL expensive. However, you only need a small amount, so it lasts a long time! -

This is now one of my favorite fragrances, along with Gucci Envy me. It's very fresh and light, slightly fruity, but not too sweet or overly floral. I'm very sensitive to scents - some give me a headache, and this does not.
The staying power is average, but I love this scent so much I don't care! It's very expensive, since it's Chanel, but I was lucky to buy the 150mL version for $110 from The Bay.
