    I love looking up reviews online. I use MakeupAlley frequently, and I love reading blog posts from people who have tried products. I am sick and tired of this woman putting down solid products...

    I have flipflopped on Paula Begoun at first I loved her, highlighted her books, then I started to dislike her because of the conflict of interest when she started to sell her own products. Despite...

    I remember way back when she didn't sell her own line of skincare. I referenced her site and Skin Deep a lot. While her information might be helpful, it's a giant conflict of interest. She is no...

    I was excited when I found the Beautypedia website. I needed some things and thought I would pull it up on my iPhone while shopping at Ulta, to use as a resource. I knew I didn't want any drugstore...

    Oh, Beautypedia. What would I do without you? I admit it, I'm curious enough to check out the reviews of new products whenever new ones show up. Sure, there's lots of good info (it's most helpful...

    This is such a disappointment. I've tried following her "top rated" products and they are either in a weird consistency or they break me out. But what's most upsetting is the way her reviews...

    Why do all of her products get "BEST CHOICE" but everything else is too expensive or improperly formulated? Some products I love and she gives them bad reviews, but her products contain so many...

    Paula's Choice products have a litany of ingredients. All of her products cause me to have a severe allergic reaction. My allergy doctor could not believe how much crap is in her products. ...

    I consider Beautypedia to be just one useful source of many. Of course, because it is written by a staff that is also employed by a skincare/beauty company, take what they say with a grain of salt,...

    I have issues with this site for several reasons. 1. She is reviewing her products along side competitors. Her reviews, therefore, are inherently biased. 2. Claiming essential oils are simply...
