Putting it to the test...

"I tried the Green Teatherapy Soul Cleansing Bath & Shower Gel, and I was in awe of the smell. Not only is the fragrance intoxicating, it lasts forever. I have since done away with perfumes that are overpowering and tend to invade any room that you walk into, and simply use this innocent little shower gel."Christine thinks:
I'm not really into shower gels, so I opted to try out the Green Teatherapy Light Body Mist instead. It comes in this handy, tiny container that fits perfectly into a purse for those emergency spritzes.
After spraying some on, I was in awe of the smell. It's light, fruity, and fresh, and it doesn't make me feel like a little girl trying on my mom's perfume. The only drawback is that the smell doesn't last long, so if you want staying power, you have to continually apply some on.
Overall, it's a great scent with an understated appeal.

"[Maybelline Lash Discovery] actually does what it claims to do…this mascara makes my lashes look longer and thicker. If you can't find your lashes, this little mini-brush can (they found mine)."Christine thinks:
I use mascara all the time, but had never tried Maybelline's Lash Discovery, so I decided to give it a go (also, I was out of mascara). I like the tube (it's silver and sleek), and I also thought the little brush was very cute. But could it turn my straight, thin lashes into voluptuous come-hither bombshells? Or would I just end up looking like Tammy Faye Baker?
The first time I applied it, it took a little longer than usual because the brush was very small. It did get every nook and cranny though. The mascara is very lightweight (i.e. no raccoon eyes), which is perfect for day wear, but if you want something more dramatic for night, then opt for a heavier mascara. Also, I still have to curl my lashes to get the full effect. Overall, it's a good, smudge-proof mascara to achieve a barely-applied-make-up look. ¤ C.Ho.
