Very refreshing!
Works very effectively to remove makeup prior to cleansing and also as a post-cleansing toner. It does not leave any residue, just clean soft skin that's ready for whatever you use next. I also received a sample of the pore refiner/primer and I'll DEFINITELY get the full size in my next order. Kudos to Beautylish for the great products!
Soothing and not oily or greasy
At age 61, I'm lucky not to have any lines (yet) but I still have an oily T-zone and some areas of redness and sensitivity, especially my neck and chest. I was a little concerned about purchasing this product as I really didn't want to use an oily preparation on my face but I did want to see if it would help with the redness and sensitivity. I'm delighted that it does! After a week of use at night time, my skin, neck and chest look less red and calm. The balm also does NOT feel greasy or oily. I warm up a small amount on the tips of my fingers, apply it to damp skin, and it blends easily and absorbs fairly quickly. Some reviewers have complained about the smell and others love it; I find it has an herbal/medicinal scent, rather like eucalyptus (no, it does NOT smell like eucalyptus but you get the idea: not floral or sweet smelling but herbal). I like the scent, personally, but reasonable minds can differ. So far, I'm very pleased with my purchase!
Best. Pencil. Ever.
This is the easiest eye liner pencil I've ever used! It's very soft and absolutely will not pull or drag when you apply it. I have red hair, blue-green eyes and medium light skin, so I've been using both the Veruschka Mink and Marlene Midnight and they work very well with my coloring. Just be sure to get the sharpener as well as the pencil as I had difficulty sharpening the pencil with the sharpeners I had with other makeup brands.
Better than Better Than Sex
I really like this mascara! The brush is a little smaller than Better Than Sex's so it's easy to manipulate. Plus, it's truly a brush, not a plastic comb that tends to poke you in the eye. One coat is plenty to make my lashes pop (I do use Latisse so they're already pretty long). This is probably my new favorite mascara!
Great for a night-time eye cream
I received a sample of this eye cream and a sample of the Magic Night Cream with my most recent order. I was not impressed with the Night Cream but the eye cream is really nice. It blends in quickly and is rich but not too heavy. I do think it's best used at night as it might be a little heavy under makeup, but that's because my skin is pretty oily to begin with. I'll definitely consider purchasing this in the future.
Too heavy for me
This is based on a sample I received in my most recent order. For age 61, I have great skin and many people think I'm in my mid-forties. I also still have a very oily T-zone (thought I'd have grown out of that by now!). I found the Magic Night Cream very heavy, hard to blend into my skin, and sticky in texture. I used less the next night and still felt a bit sticky although not as much as the first time.
I think if you have very dry skin this might be a good product but if you're on the normal to oily side, it's a bit much too much.
Makes brush cleaning almost fun!
I have LOTS of makeup brushes and cleaning them is NOT one of my favorite chores. But this tool makes drying them much easier and takes up far less room than laying them flat on a towel to dry. Drying them upside down also helps keep water away from the glue that holds the bristles in place. The brush tree has multiple sizes for your large and small brushes and holds them securely. You can't go wrong with this product!!
Lovely scent!
Such a nice shower gel: it's moisturizing, gentle to the skin yet it cleans thoroughly, and has a lovely rose scent that's not too strong. I also love that it is a natural product without unhealthy additives. I definitely recommend this shower gel!
