I have tried (and own) numerous brushes, including from other high-end makeup brands like MAC, drugstore brands, etc. These brushes are truly amazing quality for the price. They are buttery soft on the eyes and great for blending and applying shadows. The different shapes of the brushes allow for a variety of eye-shadow looks, making the set very versatile. This makes a great travel kit because the handles are short (about 3 inches) and they come packaged in a roll with a mirror. The brushes don't shed and stay soft after months of use. High quality bristles and eco-friendly--what could be better? Really the only thing missing is a angled brush (for gel eye liner), which Ecotools also sells separately and in a different kit. Overall, I'd highly recommend this set, you will be surprised by the quality! It's one of my best makeup purchases to date...

Alcohol free, no artificial colors and no artificial fragrances. Hypoallergenic. Not tested on animals.

I purchased this product because I wanted a facial serum similar to Perricone's, packed with the same vitamins + supplements, but with a more affordable price. Also, I wanted a fragrance-free product that was kind to animals AND kind to my very sensitive skin. It is absorbed quickly without leaving my skin oily; in fact it is the only product I can use on my nose without resulting in breakouts or oily skin. It seems to make my skin tighter and pores slightly smaller. Unfortunately, it's a bit too drying, so I have to follow it with a moisturizer. Because it is a bit drying, that makes it a great choice to use in combination with an SPF cream. The only negative thing I could say about this serum is that it doesn't last long, so be prepared to keep a backup so you don't run out.

I love the Jason aloe vera 98% gel. When I was a teen, my mom grew aloe plants to put on sunburns and well, aloe vera IS sticky and stinky WHILE IT IS DRYING, and this product is 98% aloe. After it is dry, it is no longer sticky or smelly. In fact, it feels and smells better than the gel from the actual plant. I usually use this on my face under make up and like that it feels clean and fresh while other moisturizers feel greasy or dry. My face is prone to break outs and the gel helps them to heal quickly (I can't use BP). In fact, I finally got my face to clear up by drinking tons of water (necessary for clear skin), washing thoughly twice daily with Phisoderm PH anti-blemish gel wash and alternating between Jason's tea tree gel and aloe vera 98% gel. I also use Almay's clear complexion make up with salicylic acid. There are many uses for this gel: I sometimes get a cold sore and used to buy one of those expensive treatments. But one time, I ran out and this was all I had to put on it. It took the pain away completely in a few minutes with less burning and with continued use, the sore healed within a few days instead of a couple of weeks! I got another one later and applied it constantly just as it was starting and it never fully erupted. I don't buy those expensive treatments anymore since this works better. I have used this on my son's bug bites and he got relief on some, not all of them. I also put it on scrapes and cuts for faster healing. I don't lay in the sun anymore, but I bet this would feel great on a sunburn. Jason aloe vera gel 98% works better than many chemical products for healing, itching and pain. I will always keep it in my home.

Cococare, 100% Cocoa Butter, The Yellow Stick

Description:
Nature's perfect moisturizer. Ideal for dry skin and stretch marks.
Other Ingredients :
Cocoa butter (theobroma cacao).
Warnings :
For external use only.

I used this religiously every day through my whole first pregnancy on my stomach and hips. And even though I gained 70 pounds, I didn't get any stretch marks on my stomach and only a couple very small, hardly noticable ones on my hips. I lost all the weight, but I still don't have any stretchmarks on my stomach. It's easy to put on and not messy at all. It does smell strongly like cocoa butter, but it's pure cocoa butter, so you kinda have to expect that and it isn't a bad smell :) I think the other cocoa butter lotions don't work as well because of all the other additives. Some of them have alcohol, which seems counterproductive to keeping in moisture. I just found out I'm pregnant again and ran out and bought a few sticks right away. These little sticks last a while (I think mine lasted about a month each) and are very inexpensive. Where I get them they are $1.37! Can't beat that!!! I recommend these to all my pregnant friends :) I've bought a lot of these and have never had a single complaint. Just don't keep them in a very warm place because they will melt. Had one in a suit case in the trunk of the car during a summer trip out of state and it got very soft. It hardened again when it was back in normal temps and was still usable. Just a little deformed. I've never had one that was dried out or too hard like other reviewers have had.

So, although the jar is small, it lasts a long time. Huge thumbs up from me!

Now Foods, Macadamia Nut Oil, 16 fl oz

*Certified Organic
*Expeller Pressed
*100% Pure
You can travel the world over, and not find a more perfect cooking oil than Macadamia Nut Oil. Its naturally high smoke point (400-450º F) allows for excellent cooking versatility, and even helps reduce the production of trans fatty acids.
To ensure quality and purity, Now Macadamia Nut Oil uses only unrefined, unhybridized macadamias, as grown in Australia. These organically grown nuts are superior in quality, and account for its unique nutritional profile. At 81% monounsaturated fat, 2% polyunsaturated fat and an incredibly low 2.2 grams of saturated fat, Now Macadamia Nut Oil has one of the healthiest unsaturated to saturated fat ratios, even greater than that of olive oil.
To retain the naturally occurring vitamins and enzymes, we rely on an expeller press and double filtration process. This, coupled with its delicious nutty flavor, makes Macadamia Nut Oil the perfect complement to chicken, fish, vegetables, stir fry and salad dressings.

I ordered this to use when making my own sugar and salt body scrubs, and i now find myself just putting it on straight from the bottle, after drying off from a shower. It's known as "vanishing oil", due to how wonderfully it absorbs into the skin. My skin is soooo soft, now. This oil works better than any "moisturizer" i've ever used! It has a somewhat strong nutty aroma, (obviously) but it quickly dissipates after a few minutes, and doesnt interfere at all with any cologne, body spray or perfume. i also hear it's great for cooking!!

Roberts Research Laboratories COLLAGEN CARE GEL

This gel feels really good on the skin & absorbs quickly. I've been using it for about 2 weeks and I have not noticed any wrinkle reduction, although I suspect the collagen percentage must be pretty low so it would take 3-6 months before noticing results? Either way it was very inexpensive and the ingredients should be healthy for my skin so I will continue using it and keep my fingers crossed for miraculous wrinkle & stretch mark reduction! I would say this gel is a nice product for my skin and I would recommend it to my personal friends, especially since its so affordable.

Neemaura Naturals Inc, Neem Skin Salve

My sister sometimes gets very chapped lips -- dry, rough, red, extending about 1/2 inch beyond both upper and lower lips. Waxy, petroleum chapstick-type lip balm doesn't touch it; shea butter helps soften it a bit but doesn't make it go away. NeemAura Neem Skin Salve REALLY helps her. We have tried other neem products -- like a neem lip balm -- but they have not worked for her or sting. I think it's a combination of the neem itself counteracting some type of bacteria in her saliva that worsens her chapped lips, plus whatever base the salve has in it. The worst thing about using the neem skin salve on her lips is that it tastes HORRIBLE -- like a very bitter herb. (So maybe part of it is that she doesn't lick her lips and make it worse when it's on!) When it's getting worse, and she finally gets out the tin and puts some on (above and below her lips, to try to avoid the taste), it immediately soothes the dryness and pain, without stinging. It immediately feels better. She and I notice that the redness starts to recede that day, is visibly better by day 2 and 3, and by day 4 or 5, it is gone. Without this product, the redness stays for a week or more, getting worse. We ran out a month ago and the shea butter has not been cutting it, so here I am ordering some more!

Queen Helene Masque, Mint Julep - 8 oz

I've bought all kinds of products looking for something to help my acne prone skin. It's hard to believe this gem was hiding right up the street for literally a fraction of the price I've paid for less effective products. I bought this after reading the reviews here. I knew something good was happening as soon as I put it on. It tingles in a pleasant way and you can actually feel it working. It took about 30 minutes to dry completely. I rinsed it off and my face feels CLEAN. There's no other word to describe it. It really feels like my pores are breathing a sigh of relief. I don't know that my face has ever felt this unclogged. A lot of the gunk in my pores and on the surface of my skin has been sucked up and rinsed off. My skin feels smooth and soft. It is a little dry and tight, but I know my skin will eventually adjust to that and the dryness will lessen after a few uses. It's a little tough to rinse this stuff off because it's thick and clings a bit. I recommend using it before you shower. That'll be the fastest and easiest way to get it off. The smell is also quite strong and minty. Some people will be turned off and/or simply unable to stand it. I started getting a headache after a while from the smell, but it was well worth suffering through. (At least it's not as bad as Mario Badescu drying mask, which smells like tires. I actually had to shove balls of tissue up my nostrils with that one.) All in all, read the reviews and believe them. I hope the effects continue and that it doesn't stop working after a while. We'll see. I'm already looking at other Queen Helene products, which you'll notice also have stellar reviews.

Crystal Body Deodorant, Crystal Body Deodorant Spray

For many years, I used commercial/retail deodorant sprays. They worked fine in terms of odor protection, but often left a residue that would accumulate over time under the arms of my dress cotton work shirts. This residue was extremely difficult to remove and, in fact, never could be removed completely, meaning that I had to "retire" my shirts prematurely.About eight years ago, I tried using deodorant crystal products and found that they worked just as well, and didn't generate the residue that had been plaguing my dress shirts. An added benefit was that the deodorant crystal was less expensive and lasted much longer (i.e., didn't have to be bought as frequently).Over the years, I've used deodorant crystals from a variety of manufacturers, and they all seemed to work quite well. The reason I purchased this particular product is that I found that crystals in "rock" form last longer compared to the "stick" products in plastic containers. The stick products work well initially, but become harder to apply toward the end (i.e., they become "crumbly", perhaps because they don't dry out completely between uses, and there's always some amount of the product that remains within the container at the end even after screwing the applicator all the way up). Now I buy only the rock form.Of course, the rock form is vulnerable to breakage if dropped (and they can become slippery during application), but I still find them the better buy. Something else to consider is that the rock form takes up considerably less space when packed into a shaving kit for travel.

Now Foods, Maca, 500 mg, 100 Capsules

Since gaining weight my cycles have been a little crazy, and up until this month I hadn't had a period since August. I began taking Maca (one pill in the morning, one at night) in early November and after TTC for 7 months we got pregnant so obviously I ovulated. Unfortunately it did not last, I miscarried at 4 weeks, but I do not think the medication had anything to do with it as early m/c are sadly very common. Also I read another review on here where this medicine helped a woman with her cycles and she got pregnant and updated to say she had a very healthy pregnancy and her baby was fine, so I will keep trying.The only negatives I noticed was A) it didn't seem to help increase my labido much, after 7 months of trying to get pregnant, making love can start to feel like a chore so I was hoping for some help in that area. B) I noticed for the first two weeks or so I had rather loose stools and an upset tummy....however I stuck with it and now I feel fine. But so far I am very happy with how it has helped regulate and the fact that I got pregnant the first month trying it is either a coincidence, or proof that it works.
