OMG I am so glad other people have broken out and have had bad experiences with You Rebel. I thought it was just me! The lady at the BeneFit counter applied it and it looked awesome. But when I took it home and started using it myself, the color was horrible with visible lines. They said it would not wear off easily, but every time I touched my face by accident or blew my nose (when I had a cold) the color came off allll over the tissue or my hand. By the end of the day you could barely tell I had it on at all anymore. Not to mention my breakouts! At first it was a just a few bumps here and there, but after I wore it for about a month, I began breaking out horribly. I stopped using it earlier this week and no new breakouts have occurred. I am going to try the Shiseido line since I have heard good things about it. But please save your money and DO NOT purchase You Rebel-it's a waste of money!

Scrubs -Bath and Body Works - Need a Margarita? Citrus Body Scrub
rated 3 of 5

This is an ok product. I would buy it again because it is a good scrub. If I used it before shaving, I got a cleaner, closer shave. It is very oily, and after I got done using it if I ran my finger down my legs I had the scrub residue all over my finger. The scent is to die for.. It smells just like a margarita and I wanted to eat it every time I used it! It is mucho expensive, and I always went through my jars super fast. Overall, I would buy it again, but I don't use it every time I shave anymore as it's too expensive.

Lotions/ Creams -Bath and Body Works - True Blue Spa Look Ma, New Hands Renewing Hand Lotion
rated 5 of 5

OMG I loveeeeeeee this stuff. My co-worker introduced this to me last winter when my hands were so dry they were cracking. I went out and got a bottle for $12. The price is a little steep but it is soooo worth it! Within a week of using this regularly, especially after I wash my hands, my hands looked and felt even better than they do normally. This lotion may be a bit heavy in the summer.. I only use it once day then, but in the winter months I use this stuff religiously. It is definitely worth the $12!

Lotions/ Creams -Bath and Body Works - Exotic Coconut
rated 2 of 5

I loved the old Creamy Coconut smell. I usually love all the Bath & Body works products, and have never had issues with them. As soon as I put on the new Exotic Coconut lotion it started to tingle. At first I thought maybe this is apart of the new product. I brought it into Bath & Body works to ask if indeed this was supposed to tingle. The salesgirl looked at me like I was crazy and said “I don't believe so, no one has ever experienced that before that we know of." I loved the scent of the Exotic Coconut, but due to the odd tingling sensation have stopped using it and went back to The Body Shop Satsuma lotion. I am glad other people have experienced the "tingling or burning" and I am not the only one.
