There is a down side

I bought this in a bright magenta pink shade. I really like Sally Hansen products, I find that they are long lasting and their lines always have a very nice shade selection. This formula is nice and opaque; if you use a heavier hand one coat of this polish will be enough but 2 lighter hand coats would help to make sure that you don't get streaking. This polish does go on nice and smooth, If you use base and top coat this polish will last up to 1.5 weeks without much chipping. I found that this polish isn't really fast drying, it's not that liquidy so the drying time is pretty much the same as any drugstore polish or 2 coats of any polish. The major problem I had with this line of polish is that the brush is wide (compared to a the standard polish brush), flat and it's rounded at the tip. I think this brush was put in to help make applying polish easier and the idea that you could use less strokes to cover the entire nail. I actually find that this wide brush gave you less control, especially if you have smaller nails or nails that are long and narrow or your nail is more rounder in shape and not just flat (the brush is not that flexible to curve with your nail shape). If you aren't good at applying nail polish I would think that this brush would make the process much more messy. This isn't a product that I've repurchased but I do really like the colour selection. Kind of a shame that the brush ruined it for me.

Actually works

I was surprised that these pins actually worked! I have long coarse and REALLY thick hair; I didn't think that just 2 of these would hold all of my hair up. I find that if I used a straightener to my hair these pins do tend to slip around and just hold on to my hair loosely. I did get the pins that were longer just to make sure that it would get everything but with the longer ones you do have to becareful when you are spining them into your hair that you don't interlock them; if you do your hair won't hold up at all. These are good to throw in my bag when I want to have my hair away from my face.

Not too impressed

I got this polish in a light pearly pink shade. This product was kind of expensive for what it was. I find that you didn't get a lot of formula in the bottle and the formula also dried up really fast in the bottle. If you let it sit for a bit this polish also separates. This is definately not one of the best polishes out there, I might have just picked up a bottle beacuse I like the one colour.

Excellent product

Now this is the Clinique cleanser that I love using. This is a great gentle cleanser that foams up nicely with just a tiny amount. A tube of this will last you a long time and it's not that expensive to buy compared to over counter brand cleansers. What I love the most about this product is that it can take off all your makeup with just the first wash. I don't even use makeup remover before this product i just wet my face and soak off my mascara and I left the cleanser do the rest of the work. This product is great for sensitive skin and also it does not cause red irritation to my skin. I've had been using this cleanser for years before I discovered something that was even better.

Good

I got this lipgloss in my bonus with purchase in the colour Sugar Plump, it's a darker burnt red with shimmer in it. I'm not too crazy about the colour in the tube, but it actually goes on more sheer so you can definately wear this over a more neutral colour to give your lips some kind shine. I really like the fomula, it has a nice fresh scent to is that's really light and the lipgloss is just the right amount of stickyness to make the staying power longer. The formula also has nice fine shimmer in it and is really glossy. I think this is a product that I might repurchase in a different shade.

This was a really expensive product and you really don't get much from it. I have normal skin and I get the occasion breakout, at the time when I tried this product I had most of my break out around my forehead area. I found that it did work but not all the time. I guess the product's result really depended on what kind of blemish you had. It took a really long time to fade the marks that some blemishes left behind, specially if that previous blemish had left a deeper mark. The problem I had with this formula was that it takes too long and that there isn't enough formula in the stick to really help your marks heal. This was something that I did purchase twice, but even if my last one I have find something better and cheaper to use instead.

Hate this!

Rarely will I ever really hate a product. This toner first of all just smells like alcohol and the packaging is difficult to use because you have to use it with a cotton pad, and that wastes products since most of the product will just get absorbed into the cotton and not on your face. This lotion does not help to sooth your skin, and it actually BURNED my skin when I tried it. I actually give it a shot for a week, thinking that the first time might just be my skin getting use to the new product, but I found that my skin just got dryer and dryer. Maybe it's just me, but this was definately a no.

Miss

I'm not a fan of this. I find that this formula does not foam up at all, which kind of leaves me with the feeling that my face isn't really cleaned. It does not clean off makeup well at all! Especailly mascara and eyeliner, it will just leave black rings around your eyes. I've tired Clinque cleansers before and have loved those, this one did not do it for me. I also didn't like how it doesn't have a smell, things that don't have smells doesn't mean that it's natural or filled with good things. A lot of the time chemical are put in to kill smell. I know that this is part of their 3 step system, but Clinque has other great cleansers that you can just substitue into the system.

Great sunblock

I hate wearing sunblock on my face, generic brands just break me out and cause my face to itch. So I can only use sunblock from brands that make them just for the face. I also hate the smell of sunblock, it just stays with you the whole day. Yuck But this product I actually like. All the things I hate about sunblock this product doesn't have or it's minimized. The formula isn't greesy and it's pretty light smelling of that generic sunscreen smell so that don't stay with you the whole day. This formula is also a bit tinted so if you do have really great skin this can help with very very sheer coverage. I find that you can still wear moisturizer underneath this and even on a hot summers day you won't find your makeup melting off your face. This tube will last you a long time if you are only using it daily on your face and neck. This is a high recommended sunblock for your face!

Great colour

I got a sample size of this blush in a bonus with purchase. I loved the colour and the packaging was so pretty! I loved how you could control the colour with the swirl of your brush you could get a more sheer colour or something darker. This is great for everyday wear for just a nice glow on your cheek. I was devastated when I hit pan with this product. I haven't gotten around to repurchse because it does come with a pricey price tag. I would recommend this blush though it's just so pretty to look at and also the colour is gorgeous.
