This foundation did deliver the long-lasting properties it promised. I have oily/combination skin and on my skin, MAC's foundation can last an entire day I use it over primer and apply with a BB cushion, and I've found that with the right primer it will keep your skin less oily for longer. It doesn't feel drying -- skin doesn't feel unpleasantly tightened after an application -- and with the waterproof formula it won't fade unless you really tug at your face. The coverage lasts long, but the matte finish did not. After one or two hours, the oil starts to come through. With powder, it doesn't show as much, but it's still there, nonetheless. I will say, though, that the shine that eventually becomes visible isn't as much as it would be with other foundations, and it's easily manageable by blotting. But for customer service jobs where you often don't have time or energy to blot your face every 2 hours, this foundation is not perfect I've been wearing this foundation everyday since spring and although I'd love a 10-hour matte finish, I know it's quite a reach for a foundie. MAC's done a pretty good job at making this foundation long-lasting without making my skin feel uncomfortable, and I'm definitely happy with my purchase.

I have been using this moisturiser once again after years of disuse and I've found that it gets the job done. It can be suitable for day-wear, but only for cold days, otherwise there will be some shine after an hour or two. It absorbs pretty quickly and it's the perfect moisturiser for sensitive skin. My skin didn't have any adverse reactions to Cetaphil, which I am very pleased about. However, making the moisturiser's effectiveness last longer in the bottle is vital to ensuring it delivers results every application. I've discovered that keeping it on my normal bathroom shelf exposed to the heat of my showers made the formula a little runny and it diminishes its moisturising properties. Overall, a cheap quick fix. Not the holy grail of all moisturisers, but it definitely does the job well enough.

NIVEA Pearl & Beauty Roll-On is a great roll-on for sensitive underarms. My underarms are pretty sensitive, and after applying this roll-on, I don't feel any itchiness or irritation. The scent of it isn't too bad either. It has a 'clean' smell, you know? Hahaha, just wearing the deodorant makes me feel super-clean. It also works as a good deodorant. It prevents me from sweating like crazy, and covers up any bad smells. Overall, a great deodorant that works brilliantly!

I've been using this sunscreen for nearly a year now, and I've found that it does a great job of protecting me from the sun. It lasts quite a while, and it's actually water resistant. So as long as you keep applying it, it'll do a magnificent job of protecting you from the sun The only downside is that it's really greasy and sticky, and it doesn't really moisturise your skin. I only use it on my body because it's way too greasy for my face. Otherwise, it's great for sun protection.

I got this in my beautyheaven rewards bag and I used it straight away. It has a lovely texture and smell. After using it, I couldn't stop touching my legs! I cannot describe how much SMOOTHER and SOFTER my legs felt after using this. It's absolutely brilliant!

I use Vaseline's Petroleum Jelly whenever my lips feel dry and chapped. Although it's a bit thick and feels a tad greasy, it works miraculously! I just apply it before I go to sleep and in the morning I wake up with soft, smooth lips.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this body wash! It is the BEST one I've EVER used, and I definitely plan on buying another bottle of this. I was previously using the QV Gentle Wash but it wasn't as effective as this one. My skin is HEEEEAPS more smooth and soft and it's really gentle so sometimes use it on my face as well. Would definitely recommend this!

Although QV's Gentle Wash isn't as good as Cetaphil's, it is a cheaper and pretty good alternative. My skin feels smoother and softer after using it and I love how it foams up.

I reckon this scrub is great if you DON'T use it regularly for your face. I mostly used it to ex-foliate my hands, feet and body and it works GREAT! Leaves my skin feeling smooth and softer However, I found that if I use it on my face everyday, it started to dry out my skin. So now I use it when my face is really grimey and oily--it's brilliant!

Even though the Bastiste shampoo was okay at removing oil from my hair, the smell of it was WAY too strong and it sometimes dried out my hair.
