No thanks.

Don't get me wrong- I'm definitely a Burt's Bees die-hard fan, but this just didn't do it for me. It tastes kinda funky and the red color it puts off is just not for me. I ended up using it as an emergency cheek color until it finally melted all over the center console of my car. Oops.

Smells amazing!

I love this product... as a pre-lotion treatment, in my bath, in my hair... it's such a delicious, clean scent. The oil is light and doesn't leave you feeling sticky after it absorbs.

Smells great but leaves my hair feeling stripped.

I process my hair quite a bit and I found this to be overly cleansing, to the point where my hair felt super dry and icky, even after conditioning. If you tend to use a lot of serums or heavy prodcuts it might actually be beneficially to use something like this once in a while to clarify your hair- it was just a bit too much for me though.

It's hard to overdo it with this one.

Unlike St. Ives Apricot Scrub this actually IS a gentle exfoliator. It has a thick, mealy texture and takes some water and effort to get it to blend onto your face. It smells pretty great- not chemically at all- you can definitely tell it's natural. I really enjoy the cleaning power of orange but i'm not so sure about glycerin as a moisturizer. It took quite a bit of rinsing before I felt like my skin wasn't retaining a film. At least it didn't make me break out more!

I didn't want to buy it... but now I like it.

I got it in purple. I was surprised to find it was a deep, pretty purple- not blue at all and not light like a lilac, (both look terrible on me). It applies easily but isn't toooo smooth...so on the plus side it doesn't smear... and is quite long lasting. To be honest, I usually don't really like the Sephora line but this was a winner.

It's really good.

It really is. And this is gross and probably a health risk in many ways, but it's like almost better the older it gets. I can get serious volume with this stuff after it's been sitting in my makeup box for a few months. I think it's the formula but also the thin wand that helps me create a nice full look. Pricey, yes. But worth it.

Smokey eyes made easier.

At first I was like, how the heck am I going to line my eye with this thing.. it's huge!! but then I discovered that, while it IS super black and creamy, it is much more functional to use when creating a smokey eye than merely trying to make a neat line. It's so pigmented and is very easily blended. There's so much product too! You could do raccoon eyes for daaaaays- I'm sure a scene kid would give her left arm for one of these things. I can't wait to try out the other colors!

You can use it as evvverything.

The consistency is amazing.. so smooth and moisturizing!! I specfically love this color because you can use it as a lipstick, cheek color, or eye color. It's the perfect shimmering peach shade. <3

Love at first siiiight!!!

It truly is waterproof. Once this goes on (and it goes on nice and smoothly, not to mention very dark), it's ON there. I loooove this product. The little smudger at the end of the pencil comes in handy for achieving that smokey look too. Great investment if you wear eyeliner every day like I do and are tired of having to touch it up repeatedly.

Fun colors that you can work with.

I love the variety of colors that come in this line. I've been on an orange rampage lately so I went with the spicy orange and vibrant gold in Flare. After a self-tanning session I was pretty pleased with how the colors worked for me. It takes some time to build the color and I would definitely use a primer, but I'm overall pleased. I've been using mine for quite a while now and I have noticed it's getting a bit crumbly. Worth investigating if you want to experiment with color but don't want to spend a ton of money.
