Promising review: "From the moment I started using it, I noticed a remarkable difference in the texture, shine, and overall health of my locks. Firstly, the Sleek & Shine formula is incredibly lightweight, making it easy to distribute evenly throughout my hair without weighing it down. I appreciate how it doesn't leave any greasy or sticky residue, even when applied to damp hair. This feature is perfect for those of us who prefer a natural and touchable feel to our hair.
The frizz control provided by this product is truly impressive... My hair now stays sleek and smooth, even in the most challenging weather conditions. It's like having my personal shield against humidity-induced frizz!" —LM

Promising review: "This actually works. It may be that it is working in conjunction with everything else I am using, but I can tell you that everything else was not working by itself. Since I started using this a couple of weeks ago, I have seen firmer and smoother skin under my chin and down my neck. The improvement stays even when I miss a day, it's remarkable." —A

Promising review: "Keep in mind, hair loss is very tricky to treat. Not everybody is going to respond positively to all products. This one works great for me! I use it in conjunction with Propecia and Rogaine. A couple of months ago, I noticed my hair was beginning to thin again even with Propecia and Rogaine, so I tried to find a better shampoo. I started using this and I’ve noticed a remarkable difference in thickness!" —Chad S.

Plus, you can use this in SO many ways. Spray some on at the beginning of your skincare routine to help prep the skin, or spray it on after your makeup routine to set and prevent cakeiness. You can also spray it on all over if you need some quick head-to-toe moisture when you're in a hurry.
Promising review: "I wish I could rate this 100 stars. This stuff is INCREDIBLE... My skin instantly looks and feels hydrated, fresh, glowing, and comfortable. I am already on my third bottle of this; it is wonderful to incorporate into skincare as a first step, in between other products, as a setting/finishing spray for makeup, or throughout the day when your skin needs a little refresher. I wish they'd make a jumbo size of this (like, 10+ oz), because I would douse my entire body in this formula if I could." —bex–7

Promising review: "While it does not take dark spots away completely, it really makes a remarkable difference." —Collielvr
"Absolutely love this soap. If you are looking for quick results, this is NOT the product for you. It is meant for long-term, slow progress results. I have been using this soap for about eight months and I see obvious improvements in my knees and elbows for sure." —yoohoo

This works best in thinning areas on the crown and part line, and if you're in between two shades, the brand recommends going with the darker option. To use, just sprinkle over the desired area and pat it in — you can also hit it with some hairspray for an extra secure hold. It'll wash out with your next shampoo.
I personally am OBSESSED with this stuff for covering the bald spot my thirties have so graciously gifted me. It is so simple to sprinkle into any thinning areas (yes, even by yourself! Though I typically hold up a hand mirror behind my head while looking in another mirror to get a better idea of where to aim the container). I've never had any issues with it fading or sweating off, though I do typically do a super light spritz of hairspray just in case.
Promising reviews: "I was cautious about trying, as my hair is beginning to gray as well as thin. But it makes a remarkable difference and blends well with the darker roots." —Cecelia
"I have AA 4c hair that I recently cut super short. When it was long, my thin spots around the hairline were concealed. So, with my hair short, they were apparent and made me self-conscious. I purchased Boldify with just a little skepticism. I am so glad I purchased it. The application is easy and does not stain clothing. Be careful not to scratch your head throughout the day because you will see the dark coloring under your fingernails. It is a large bottle for the price. I will continue to buy and recommend." —Jza Jza

Promising reviews: "Wow, I've tried so many different root/scalp cover powders, some with this same kind of sponge applicator. This product leaves all others in the dust, as in vastly superior. I was skeptical to try one more similar product. This covers completely and effortlessly, with only a few strokes of the sponge. Start applying just behind the hairline, then you can use the sponge afterward with remaining product on it, to gently fill in the hairline. I seriously cannot tell you how remarkable this product is, and the ease at which it fully covers any area on your scalp. Other ones I've used required me to keep going back for more powder because it would only cover a small area at a time, and even then the coverage could be blotchy. Not this. You need very little to cover a broad area and it covers smoothly and looks very natural!" —KCW

Promising review: "Been using for two weeks and the change in my skin has been remarkable. Pores are so much smaller. Skin seems so smooth and hydrated. I use every morning and most nights. Yes, the product is sticky, but it’s absorbed quickly in 1-2 minutes. Excited to see the results after using for an extended time." —Lisa H.

Promising reviews: "Been using it for a month now and have seen remarkable results. Smoothens the skin and has increased the glow. Love this." —Sulthan
"This stuff is absolutely fantastic! Don't let the low price throw you off because this can do better, in my opinion, than 'the elephant stuff'! I had those itty bitty bumps right under my bottom lip on my chin and four days after using this stuff with micro-needling, they were gone! I have always taken good care of my skin and now that I am 43, I am just now realizing that I did a better job than I thought I had. I want to KEEP doing doing good stuff for my skin but not pay a fortune. This formula has a fresh orange-like smell to it and goes on very easily with a dropper. It dries within a minute and soaks in completely. I haven't had any irritation from the product but I had been using 'the elephant stuff' with similar ingredients prior to this, so it could be my skin was used to it. Overall, I am EXTREMELY pleased with this purchase." —AudibleAddicted

Promising reviews: "This eye stick is remarkable, it is solid and it goes on feeling a bit wet, but when it sinks in, the tender skin around the eyes feels so good. This is a real must for anyone who particularly lives in a really dry environment." —D. Matlack
Get it from Amazon for $9.86+ (also available in a collagen formula).
Promising review: "Simply the best! And it’s teenager approved, so that says something. The formula of this mascara is perfection right out of the tube. There is no need to finesse the mascara and the wand to get rid of clumps or excess product. I’ve been using L’Oreal Voluminous for decades, but this mascara beats that 100%. It lengthens and thickens perfectly. Remarkable product." —MidwestGal

Promising review: "This under-eye concealer is truly exceptional and stands out in its price range. Its emollient base, combined with highly concentrated pigmentation, not only provides excellent coverage for concealing hollows or dark circles under the eyes but also moisturizes the delicate skin in that area. Furthermore, it exhibits remarkable staying power without drying out or settling into fine lines. I have become a dedicated and loyal customer of this product." —Reviews For You
Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades).
Promising reviews: "I was surprised to find that this worked so well. Originally bought this to serve as an under-eye brightener to be worn under my concealer. However, this does such a good job, that I almost don't find a need for the concealer at all. This is a great product. Surprised at how well it covers. It has remarkable coverage. It does not wrinkle (although to be fair, I do use primer). Although it required several 'clicks' to get it going, it is pretty easy to apply afterward. I would definitely recommend for anyone who has dark circles or wants a cheap alternative to under-eye concealer." —TruthRevealer

This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 2b–4c curls mentioning it worked for them!
Promising review: "I found this off of a Buzzfeed article about more affordable beauty product [alternatives]. As many people know, sometimes cheaper [alternatives] work wonderfully, and sometimes they fail miserably. This is one that is remarkable! I only wish they had it in a bigger size! I’ve used Olaplex before in one of their three-step systems and this works just as well (if not better) and is a fraction of the price. It’s100% worth the hype." —C Parke

Promising reviews: "Remarkable AF. First time using a product such as this and I will never again be photographed without it. Truth." —L Morgan Reynolds
"I am rather picky on my primers. I have used a bunch of different ones including Too Faced, Urban Decay, Elf, Nyx, Smashbox, etc. This is by far my favorite. It has a nice light scent (I have sensitive skin), dries quickly, and does not leave my face sticky. It really sinks into the skin too. A little goes a long way with this stuff. After applying foundation, it really minimizes my pores and gives my skin a nice healthy glow." —Stephanie

Promising review: "I have used expensive brushes for years to apply my foundation until I watched one of those videos online where products are reviewed. Well, I bit the bullet and bought these little egg-shaped sponges, and boy was I amazed at how wonderful they were. I soaked the sponge in cold water, squeezed out most of the moisture and then squirted my IT foundation onto the sponge. Apparently dabbing the sponge is better than swiping, so that's what I did, and hey presto, I have a beautifully moist-looking facial makeup coverage, without it looking cakey or too much. It is quite remarkable how this sponge works to cover all imperfections, and if I need a little more foundation, I just dab away and the job is done." —DenO

Promising reviews: "I recently had the misfortune of experiencing an allergic reaction to one of my toners, which left my face in a dire state – red, irritated, and incredibly dry. Desperate for relief, I stumbled upon this remarkable antibacterial spray, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. In just two weeks of consistent use, this product worked wonders in alleviating my skin concerns. The redness and irritation visibly subsided, and my skin's dryness significantly improved. Not only am I happy with the results, but my skin is also radiating with contentment." —Timothy N.
"Does the EXACT same as Tower28 for a fraction of the price! I love it, my face feels refreshed. Highly recommend, no shade to Tower28, they are great, but this is cheaper and if you’re on a budget, use this alternative! Great for after work, the gym, or existing in these hot summer months. If you have sensitive skin, it’s gentle." —Paul R.

Promising reviews: "I’m a hairdresser and use a hair dryer constantly, I was looking at a similar product of this in a beauty supply store for $480. This was a remarkable buy at I believe approximately $33. So far, it has cut drying time in half, smooths hair, and reduces frizz. An excellent value, very happy with my purchase." —Michael F
"Great powerful hair dryer. Great price too. Have had Dysons in the past and nothing but trouble with them. This is far better and very affordable, and no problems with it. (Retired hairdresser)." —bamzee
"Purchased this dryer to help dry my granddaughter’s type 4C hair. Drys quickly and cuts down on her squirming. She hates having her hair done. Shortened the drying time significantly. Would recommend." —Jiggilypuff

Promising reviews: "First of all, I have never used the Hanacure mask, so this is not a comparison. What I can tell you is that I absolutely love this mask! I’m a 54-year-old Black female who works as a waitress, so my skin is very stressed, to say the least. Since incorporating this into my routine every other day or so with a sheet mask following it, the change has been remarkable! My skin is tighter and firmer and more refreshed! No redness or itching, just a nice tightening effect and a reduction in the appearance of my pores and relaxation of my '11s'. Don’t hesitate, especially at this price! I’m stocking up!" —j9miami

Promising reviews: "In just a few weeks, I noticed a real difference in my face. The laugh lines around my eyes are still there, but not as noticeable, and the smoothness of my skin, especially on my forehead and cheeks, is remarkable." —Lela
"What really stands out is the radiant glow this serum imparts. My skin looks brighter, fresher, and noticeably more even-toned. Any signs of dullness or fatigue are replaced by a luminous, healthy-looking complexion. Even stubborn dark spots have started to fade, a testament to the potency of this wonderful product. Despite the high concentration of vitamin C, the formula is remarkably gentle. I've experienced no irritation, making it suitable even for sensitive skin types like mine. Hyaluronic acid, another key component, ensures my skin stays hydrated and smooth, enhancing the overall results of the serum." —Reinaldo O.

Promising reviews: "I have been using this product for a few weeks now and the difference it makes is remarkable. My skin feels overall cleaner. Just a bit of product can really help clean your pores. This is liquid gold and I would 100% buy it again. Does not leak, came in perfect condition and great packaging." —Jessica
"My skin is *super* sensitive, but as I've aged (44 years), I feel like my pores have become more visible. I hadn't used an oil cleanser before and wasn't 100% sure how it should all work. The Anua oil cleanser works how we all once hoped Biore pore strips would work back in the day but without any pain or irritation. My skin is combination skin, so I have to be really careful about not drying out the dry spots (and getting eczema) and not over-hydrating the oily spots (and getting a breakout). I rub the oil on my face as the first part of my cleansing routine; I massage it in for ~60 seconds and then put a small amount of water on my fingers and begin rubbing that on my face. The water starts the emulsification process and helps to clean out everything the oil has bonded to/mixed with. Then, I just rinse it clean and use a gentle cleanser afterward. I haven't had any irritation, redness, or fallout from adding this product to my skincare routine. I love it. I am almost through my first bottle and if I go a few days without using the cleanser, my pores become more visible/dirty again. I will definitely keep purchasing the Anua oil cleanser." —Tassa

"MAGIC. HOLY CRAP I LOVE THIS MIT! This cleared up 80% of the “chicken skin” I have INSTANTLY after one use. Also it took off way more dead skin than any scrub I’ve ever used. I never write reviews so I had to when I got this and loved it." —Cheyanne

Promising reviews: "This product is a WOW!! You only use it every three to four shampoos and it makes a remarkable difference in the look of your hair after use. My hair is noticeably smoother and controlled. My only wish is that it had a fragrance. It doesn't smell badly, it just doesn't smell nice and I love hair fragrance. Otherwise, it is a 'must have' for blow drying and other heat styling." —M-J
"When I first saw the advertisement for this product, I thought it was too good to be true, so I purchased it to see if it truly worked, and it absolutely did... I have 4c hair and everything I have ever used never worked — my hair would get frizzy or even go back to curly as soon as I stepped outside. I had no frizz, no static, and my hair was SO SOFT and it lasted a week and a half. I LOVE this product." —Chy Marie

I personally use this one and love it. The actual pencil itself has never broken while I'm using it (I've had many a brow pencil from other drugstore brands snap in half before I even use it two times), and the spoolie at the end is softer and smaller than similar pencils, allowing for more precise application and less irritation.
Promising review: "Truly remarkable. Goes on very easy, looks like powder-ish when fully dry. The tip and angular style of the pencil allows for efficient application. Highly recommend." —JMV

"This goes on and stays on! I love this lipstick line and plan on buying several more colors. The Blush On is a perfect mix of red and pink, in my opinion, and does favor the pink side of the color spectrum, which I absolutely love. Apply the lipstick, wait two minutes (if you put your lips together a minute before the moisturizer, they can stick together and ruin your look), apply the moisturizer, and you are good to go. I typically only have to apply the moisturizer one or two times throughout the day depending on how much I eat or drink. Love this line!" —BestlaRose
