Very nice liner
Date:January 6, 2014
I bought this in the Clover Pink Shade and it is a perfect natural lip colour. It goes on very smoothly, feels nice, and you can fill it in to actually use it as a lip colour even. The price is decent, and it doesnt seem to need constant sharpening, so it seems like it will last awhile. Recommended for an every day lip liner.

TL; DR : Not for very fair complextions
Date:January 6, 2014
This was suggested to me by a friend to try this foundation. I have VERY fair, sensitive skin and I wasn't sure about the colours listed so I ordered both the Golden Ivory and the Natural Vanilla shades.
Oh my, the golden Ivory I didn't bother trying at all, because it was so dark and orange (That "Ivory" label seems very misleading on this product- I would say this is more of an amber + coffee cream) I did try the natural vanilla- it is almost too dark for my skin when wet, and once on it dries even darker. On top of that it still has a very yellow undertone, which is fine for people with more yellow or olive undertones, but definitely clashes on my pinky skin.
I tried it out a few times anyway, I figured I could try using less and blending differently to see if I could manage to work with it. The coverage itself seems fine, it doesn't look or feel very cakey or really thick, which is good. By itself I find it is too shiny. It stayed shiny on my skin and just got so shiny after a shirt time. I also bought the matching mineral loose powder and again, I find the tones yellowy and even with the powder I found I was much shinier with this on my face than with no makeup at all.
While it doesnt feel bad or make my face itch, it definitely didn't work out for me. I feel this is a good quality makeup, just it is definitely a gloss finish foundation and one that seems only meant for more pigmented and more yellow or olive undertone skin. Giving 3.75 stars because the colours themselves are not a TBS issue- I am sure most women can find a shade that works for them, but I am deducting marks for having the foundation dry a darker shade than when first applied. Also, I know a lot of people like gloss finish makeup, but it is not my personal preference, so while I am not counting that against the performance, I wouldn't recommend this.
While I still think a lot of people would like this makeup, seeing as now I have two bottles of foundation I can't use that I have no idea what I am going to do with, I would definitely recommend driving however far to locate a store and try in person before buying.

Wake up your shower with the warm scent of the Mediterranean. Work this vegetable based bar into a rich lather for skin that feels thoroughly cleansed. Olive oil will leave you feeling soft and hydrated.

I love this soap!
Date:January 6, 2014
I wasn't sure what the scent would be like on this soap so I only bought one bar to try it. It's lovely! It has a nice, light citrus scent to it which is refreshing but not overpowering. My boyfriend also liked the smell of this soap- and appreciated that it was not a really "girly" scent, just nice and clean smelling.
The soap itself gets a really nice lather, and it feels like it washes off cleanly but without drying out my skin!

My boyfriend and I are both very fair, and I have very sensitive skin, but I had no problems with this soap.
My only deduction was that this soap dissolves quicky, and as it was a smaller bar to begin with it didnt last very long. However, this is only minor, especially considering that the price is in line with other "higher" quality soaps.

Great Hand Wash for Winter!
Date:December 9, 2013
Just got this in today and started using it. This is an excellent hand wash! The winter weather is exceptionally harsh on my skin, and as I use my hands a lot in my work, they are usually very dry and chapped. This hand wash is creamy and moisturizing without leaving any greasy residue on my hands afterwards, which is so important because of all the paper I handle.
I know many of the reviews have indicated a very off-putting smell, but I do not find this soap to have a very strong or unpleasant scent. It does not smell flowery or heavily perfumed, but in my opinion is a fairly neutral smell (especially in terms of scent left on your hands afterwards)
A great winter purchase!
