Lip Treatments -Philosophy - Hope in a Stick
rated 4 of 5
rodenbach 4/10/2013 2:40:00 AM

This lip balm is unscented, goes on smoothly, and feels nice on my lips. Unfortunately, it has poor staying power. I found I had to apply it often, so the tube didn't last long.

Lip Treatments -Avon - 'Tis the Season Lip Balm - Berry Blizzard
rated 1 of 5
rodenbach 4/10/2013 2:35:00 AM

Although the name would suggest a berry scent, this lip balm actually smells like cinnamon. It stung my lips enough that I had to wipe it off immediately. Truly the worst Avon lip balm I've ever used.

Powder -Unlisted Brand - Honeybee Gardens pressed mineral powder foundation
rated 1 of 5

I bought this in Geisha. At first it looked alright, but after an hour it took on a grayish hue. I recoiled when I saw myself in the mirror. Plus my face looked oily. Very disappointing.

Pressed Powders -Wet 'n' Wild - Natural Blend
rated 5 of 5

I'm surprised how good this powder is for being a cheap drugstore product. It doesn't turn orange and controls shine in my t-zone. I like the finish and 821A is an excellent match for my pink undertoned PPP skin. The sponge that comes with it is worthless, but it applies nicely with a powder brush. I've bought this several times and will continue to repurchase it.

This product is runny and has a STRONG sunscreen scent. It also broke me out. I generally like Shiseido products, so this was a big disappointment.

This stuff is awful. The actual product is darker than it appears in the bottle. It looked orange on my skin and accentuated my pores--even with primer.

Moisturizers -Estee Lauder - Future Perfect anti wrinkle
rated 1 of 5

At first this moisturized my skin with no problems. After a couple of days my skin started feeling dry. Then this awful product made my rosacea flare the worst it's been in quite awhile. I stopped using it and in a couple of days my skin went back to normal.

Lip Gloss -Bissy's Boutique - Lip Scrubs

This lip scrub works ok, but I needed to wipe it off with a washcloth to truly exfoliate my lips. I got this in Brown Sugar and Cocoa, which smell wonderful.

This stuff turned my face ORANGE! I almost looked like an Oompa Loompa. It also made my skin greasy and clogged looking. Awful product!

Lotions/ Creams -Bath and Body Works - True Blue Spa - Glove Me Tender Restorative Hand Treatment with Shea Butter SPF 15
rated 5 of 5
rodenbach 8/8/2009 5:26:00 PM

Excellent hand cream! It's moisturizing without being greasy and smells like fresh tangerines. It is difficult to find a hand cream with SPF and even harder to find one with a pleasing scent. This product is a winner on all counts!

Nice moisturizing lip balm with a real bubble gum scent. I've lost track of how many of these I've purchased over the years.

This scent is horrible!!! It smells like sugar free bubble gum with medicinal mint overtones. I couldn't even stand it on my lips for one minute.

Lotions/ Creams -Bissy's Boutique - Goat's Milk, Shea & Honey Lotion
rated 5 of 5
rodenbach 3/28/2009 7:26:00 PM

This lotion is fantastic!!! It's very moisturizing and absorbs quickly, without being greasy. I got it in Pink Sugar which was a wonderful scent and Pink Grapefruit which was terrible. The Grapefruit scent was weird smelling and way to strong.

I agree with everything the other reviewers said. This product is worthless!
