Love the packaging, love the 95% organic and 100% natural, love the scents and flavor but not as moisturizing as I needed it to be. My lips chap easily and peel badly. I have tried 2 of these, Summer Fruit and Lemon Drop. I thought that the Lemon Drop was much more moisturizing than the Summer Fruit. It's good to wear under lipstick because it's not too slippery. I don't know if it's all in my head, but I actually thought my lips would chap more after this lip balm wore off. Sad.

So disappointed.

I have this lip gloss in Grown and Sexy. The color is so pretty. But that was the only thing I liked about it. I didn't like the texture at all. It was so sticky and thick. It would not spread easily over my lips--too goopy. I didn't like the smell or the taste but the extreme stickyness and heavy feel is what ruined the product for me. So sad, I really really loved the color. :(

The best trios!

Oh, my goodness! I can't say enough good things about these trios! For one, the are CHEAP. The colors are so smooth and pigmented. The trios are coordinated beautifully. I own several of these (retail $2.99 @ Walgreen's) and I have never experienced creasing with them. I am looking forward to getting them all. I honestly recommend these. You won't be disappointed. :)

Some of my fave E/S.

I have all these quads except for 2 of them. I love them. (Especially the price--$1!) The colors are mostly pigmented, a few of them are so-so. But I do have to say that the Drama quad is my fave. Super pigmented! Great product. I use them along with the ELF Eyelid Primer ($1) and I have yet to experience any creasing. I'm happy with them.

Love this color.

I bought this product in Radiant for $1 at Dollar Tree. My first time using this. I liked it. The color is so pigmented. Radiant is a very pretty gold, looks great on my skin tone, makes my brown eyes pop. On the downside, a lot of fallout but that is to be expected. But worst of all, the brush it comes with is not usable! Mine was all bent up and bushy, rather funny looking. The eyeshadow itself was satisfying. I do want to try other colors.

Pretty.

This quad is the first product I ever tried from Essence. I can't remember the exact price but I believe it was under $3. At first I thought this line was targeted for younger girls because of the colors and packaging. But the Party Animal quad caught my eye. The shadows are smooth, easy to apply, fairly pigmented. I just wish the yellow was more bold since it was the reason I chose this palette. I like it enough to try the other colors. That's my opinion. XXOO!

Great Deal

I love this. Very nice colors. Great for an everyday look. The price is amazing! I use the cream shadows as a highlight under my brow. Works good for that. Some of the shadows have a lot of fallout but that doesn't really bother me. I think it's a great deal. Didn't disappoint. I'm happy I bought it.

My "MAC"

I've never tried MAC E/S (Am I the only one?) but I like to pretend this is MAC for me. LOL. I tried this in Showy 224 and I was not disappointed. The pigmentation was great. I love the turquoise side of it, nice and shimmery, very blendable. The navy blue side is super pigmented (a little goes a long way) but it's matte and I had a harder time blending it out. But I loved it over all. I want to try the other colors. I got lots of compliments on this too which is always a plus!

Not bad.

I bought Atomic, Magnetic Force, and Static Electricity at my local DollarTree for $1 a piece. First of all, LOVE the price =) and the colors were bright. But, Magnetic Force was too bright and came off more orange-y for my taste. I applied 2 coats and that was enough to give me a solid, even look. My only complaint with this nail polish is that it began to chip on me by the 2nd day. =( I didn't use a base coat or a top coat but then again, I never do. I might try it again with a top coat and see if that makes a difference. I did get a lot of compliments when I wore each of the 3 colors. While they aren't AWESOME, I do believe I would purchase these again. Luv & Luk, Lisa

Don't let the price fool you.

I got this at my local grocery store for $0.99! And oh-my-goodness, don't let the price fool you! I thought this did a great job for me. I use this on a daily basis and it hasn't failed me yet. I highly recommend it. It's very creamy, silky, blends in easily. Very good product!
