super pretty and wearable

This was the first of the Naked palettes that I was truly interested in purchasing. The other ones never really appealed to me (#1 I thought the colors were not that great, #2 they were too cool toned for my skin) but #3 definitely appealed to me, being in that I love rose gold tones and these shades work really well with my skintone. I find the quality very good, pigmented and you get a lot in each pan, I've hardly made a dent and I purchased this when it first came out! It's my everyday go to palette and it's easy to make a quick neutral smokey eye with them. The brush is pretty nice too, much softer and better quality than the brush I received in the original Vice Palette. Love the mirror inside, makes application a breeze. I try not to buy too many palettes bc I already have so many but this is one I really do love and use the most!

Sweet and delicious

Juicy, tropical scent with sweetness that isn't too cloying. Great for those summer days or winter days when I miss being on an island. This is also one of my best friend's favorittttttte perfume, she loves it! Good lasting power as well.

hydrating and cooling

Mmmmm yogurt. Just the word alone makes me salivate. This after sun gel is cooling, hydrating, and makes any skin irritation feel instantly better once you apply it. Plus it smells great and the texture is so yummy that I want to eat it! But ya know, I won't =) I've used it on sunburns and it's definitely a treat to apply.

Oh man, Carmex definitely brings me back. I'd been using it all through middle school (then stopped because I realized I liked trying new things too) but now I mostly use it for cold sores, which is TOTALLY EXCELLENT FOR. That's all I use it for, but I still really like it as well as a lip balm, although I've been leaning more towards Aquaphor and Jack Black lately for that purpose. Carmex is definitely a stand-by though!

smells delicious!

Ughhhh I can't even begin to tell you how much I love the Daily Exfoliating Cream. It's definitely the most unique exfoliator I have ever used....and I've tried a lot. It comes out with chunks of oatmeal, very food like in texture, and basically instead of "scrubbing" like you would a normal product, you want to "roll" the product with the palm of your hands onto damp skin. The rolling action helps the oatmeal pieces to exfoliate the skin without irritation and leaves it super baby soft. The smell is so darn delicious, I want to eat it every single time!

Lightweight and fast absorbing

You know how sunscreens with a high spf tend to leave you feeling greasy and super sunscreeny feeling? Yeah, this one definitely doesn't give you that feeling. It's super lightweight, sinks in quickly, smells faintly of pine, and has a high SPF, what more could you want? My only gripe is the glass bottle is a little bulky (not as easy to throw into a beach bag like a plastic tube) but for using in my everyday life going to work, it does the job very well.

Pleasant scent

If you're not a fan of lavender, this may not be for you. I used to HATE the smell of lavender, something about it was just super off-putting to me for a long time. When I discovered Jurlique products, I realized I didn't hate it anymore, I just had to find the right line to help me get in touch with that "soothing lavender" scent that seems to be present everywhere. Jurlique scents are never super overpowering to me and just have that luxury scent to it, most likely because they use real plants and herbs and hand pick all of them to create the essential oils that are very present in their products. This hand cream is also very hydrating, not super thick or greasy and great for tossing in my purse when I need a pick me up. Sometimes I even cup my hands together to breathe in the lavender scent, especially when I'm feeling kind of stressed. It really helps!

Soothing and great for redness

Something about the smell of Jurlique's Calendula Cream is just so very soothing to me, must be why it works! Calendula is is one of those ingredients that can be used for many different issues - redness, irritation, bug bites, antibacterial....just to name a few. I love using this cream when my skin feels a bit more redness from too much sun and just needs something that is super soothing and hydrating. I've also used this on bug bites, which helps to remove the itch.

no more chapped lips!

Aquaphor, let me count the ways of how I love thee! My lips are no longer dry since I started using it everyday and I also use it to apply after fresh tattoos (up to four days). My color and tattoos have never healed better than when I use Aquaphor right after I get some work done. A little goes a long way. I'll have to try it on my heels next.

Good for traveling

I like a small, easy to fit in my makeup bag palette for when I'm traveling and the Charlotte Ronson palette in Dani definitely does the trick. It has a mirror inside (important for when you don't have a large vanity mirror on hand), and a color selection that is easy to wear that you can dress up day or night. It comes with a highlighter color, a softer peach color, a mid-tone brown, and a darker brown that I use as a crease color for definition. The peach shade does have some slight shimmer to it, but nothing that is disco ball.

I lean towards neutral palettes when I travel (and everyday because I'm lazy) and the size of this is perfect. You receive plenty of product, I still have a lot in mine and it's definitely gone on a few trips with me! There are no brushes included in here, which is fine because I prefer to use my own brushes. I've never tried the other colored palettes in the line but this one is pretty much in the realm of what I normally go for. Color payoff is good and long lasting and they're all very buttery and easy to apply. Nothing I hate more than chalky eyeshadow!
