index_22410 | Review title is satisfied [SEP] Great product! The darkest shade isn't as dark as it looks, but it's a great product. Especially the lighter colors. | 0 | 1 | true |

index_32661 | Review title is Obsessed [SEP] I am absolutely obsessed with this makeup bag. It keeps everything organized and easy to find. It is sturdy and durable as well as easy to clean. | 1 | 0 | true |
index_2909 | Review title is Moisturizing. Only a little needed to work [SEP] This has been my moisturizer for a couple of weeks now and I love it. It leaves my skin feeling really really smooth. You don’t need to apply a lot of it. Just a really thin layer. I applied a lot at first and it left my face pretty greasy. A thin layer is all you need. Doesn’t have a rich smell to it, just a normal lotion like smell and it actually makes it great. It being so close to your nose, you don’t want something strongly scented anyway. Would recommend | 0 | 0 | false |
index_1363 | Review title is It is fine. [SEP] I'm not even a fan of make up at all. This is a good product and I am not allergic to it. | 1 | 0 | true |
index_31478 | Review title is Great value [SEP] Very large brush;soft bristles. Great for foundation coverage. The handle of the brush is perfect. Works great & liked the value of the product! | 1 | 1 | true |

index_30780 | Review title is This one I’d purchase again. [SEP] [[VIDEOID:a2938576670b1986c96a1eb9b77199c]] I like that it doesn’t shed, I’ve colored/ highlighted and cut it and it’s kept it’s softness and it doesn’t tangle easily. I’ve had it in for a month and have shampooed it in a salon and at home and it returns back to softness. Use a clarifying shampoo. | 1 | 1 | true |

index_8555 | Review title is Great necklace! [SEP] This is a wonderful little necklace at a fabulous price! Could not be happier! | 1 | 0 | true |
index_23181 | Review title is Wow! And I mean wow! [SEP] I’ve tried nearly all the major brands for beard balms and butters. I mostly stick to butters now. The only con I’d say is Detroits beard butters contain beeswax. Had I realized that, I wouldn’t have purchased them. I’m willing to compromise at this point though. I’m hoping Detroit will come out with a VEGAN beard butter version as most other beard butters are.<br /><br />I had been looking at purchasing a beard butter for a while from Detroit because I liked the fragrances I read that were used. I had no real idea what they’d smell as most folks who use beard products may understand. Also, fragrances can often be way too strong and these all mostly seemed just right. It stinks when you spend a bunch of money that is going to be on your face all day/night and turns out it is awful smelling, triggers migraines, etc. … this sample pack helps mitigate waste to find your favorite scents and the price seems reasonable.<br /><br />With all that said, most of the fragrances smell mature and very nice. I was pleasantly surprised given how much beard products, scents, and companies I’ve tried.<br /><br />For now, Detroit is my favorite company for beard moisturizers. | 1 | 0 | true |

index_7377 | Review title is Perfect Kite Coverage [SEP] I have aging dry skin and this is the perfect coverage. It’s lite and covers all blemishes without a heavy application. You only need a tiny amount so this small tube used daily lasts me months. It covers smoothly. It actually helps my dry facial areas. Love it | 1 | 0 | true |
index_13594 | Review title is Liked product but expensive and borders on false advertising [SEP] I really liked this product. It did a good job conditioning and getting the tangles out. Also think it has a light pleasant smell. It is quite pricey for the amount you get... I assumed that was because it was all natural ingredients. It is nearly impossible to pronounce the many ingredients and they are printed so tiny it is difficult to even read them. I was disappointed that this product seems to give an impression of an all natural healthy product but in reality is made with all the stuff you'd find in Suave or any other low cost conditioner. | 0 | 1 | false |
index_3851 | Review title is Dryer Than Some Of The Other Options Out There. [SEP] I love these easy eye treatments and have used several varients. This is a little dryer than some of the others used and definitely pulls a little more. The results are OK but I think it loses a lot from not having the extra moisture left to dab in when you remove them. Personally I prefer them with a more gel type feel. | 0 | 0 | false |
index_26898 | Review title is Beautiful colors! [SEP] I ordered 2 one of them had some cracked colors in it. Overall I love the pallet. It’s beautiful colors. Worth the buy! | 0 | 0 | false |
index_30473 | Review title is Glad to have this! [SEP] Fine for the price and variety. It is difficult finding these sienna based colors for redheads/blonds so I was glad to see it available! | 0 | 0 | true |
index_12848 | Review title is For some reason, it just works better that any other [SEP] Works better than any other barrel, better than suction curlers, better than a straight iron. Something in the making of this product just guarantees curls | 1 | 0 | false |
index_20080 | Review title is More of an oil [SEP] This is more of an oil than a serum in my opinion. It does absorb immediately and does not smell strong like many vitamin C serums. It smells very light and fresh with the slightest citrus scent to it. Great to use for both day and night. Does not contain a sunscreen, so make sure to use one during the day. Overall, highly recommended. | 0 | 0 | false |
index_3835 | Review title is Worth the money [SEP] I love my new eigshowbeauty brushes. I have no complaints at all. They feel amazing on my face, the ending result is my makeup looks fantastic when Ibuse my brushes. Blends amazing. | 1 | 0 | true |
index_4225 | Review title is Luxurious product. [SEP] This product is very hydrating and feels great on your hands and skin!<br />Very nice scent! I bought 2 more! | 1 | 0 | true |
index_4729 | Review title is Great mascara for costume parties [SEP] This is great mascara! I've only used black and brown mascara, but this blue is a lot of fun! I did feel that I had to put a lot on so you could actually see it. It's easy to apply and even out. Since it is a bright blue, I don't see myself wearing this for everyday use. I do think it would be great for costume parties, makeup artists, or a specialized photoshoot. | 0 | 0 | false |
index_23589 | Review title is Nice! [SEP] Light and easy to use. Nice detail work. I do prefer more vibrant colors to pastels but this is still a very nice item. | 0 | 0 | true |
index_33538 | Review title is LED foot callus remover [SEP] It is ok but, I prefer the battery operated callus remover better. | 0 | 0 | true |
index_11164 | Review title is Good Combs but.... [SEP] These are nice combs but I thought when I ordered two combs, I would get two different colors and not 2 BLACK combs. It is advertised as available in random colors and it shows 6 different colors. Disappointed. Having two colors is optimal for rotation, identification and/or ownership. | 0 | 0 | true |
index_24697 | Review title is The best I’ve ever tried!! [SEP] Originally this was sent to me as a gift. I have since purchased it several times, and myself given one as a gift. It is non greasy— moistures the best…. Does wonders even for ‘crepe skin’ and my 74 yr old body here in south Texas!! | 1 | 0 | true |

index_2256 | Review title is Good Product [SEP] I have used DMSO before and the smell of garlic was extremely offensive. This one has a lovely lavender scent that is very nice. I haven't used it long enough to be able to say if I can tell how well it works. | 0 | 3 | true |
index_10652 | Review title is Works for Thick Hair [SEP] They work well and are easy to use- I put my hair in a bun and then just curl them in. Sometimes it takes a few tries but I will probably get better at it. They stayed most of the day- I was at work and not moving around a lot. I would recommend, but not for a big event. | 1 | 0 | true |

index_1248 | Review title is Great quality hair! [SEP] My hair is very thin and fine and these clip ins are well hidden and grip nicely! | 0 | 0 | true |
index_34829 | Review title is Life savior [SEP] The first review was very helpful. I'm so happy with my purchase. This product covers all my dark spots, then i apply my foundation on top. It's a pink color, i warm it with my fingers, apply on needed spots even pimples, leave it for few minutes before the foundation. Amazing result! Good for olive skin tone/medium tan. It's a creamy product, so obviously in a hot weather the result would be different. | 1 | 0 | true |
index_4494 | Review title is Sea Pearl [SEP] I bought the color Sea Pearl with the intention of using it under another color that was too sheer. I figured it would have a bit of iridescent coloring to it, but it is VERY sheer and very iridescent. It's fine for what it is, just wanted to put it out there for anyone else who may be interested in this color. I have several other IBD colors and love them. | 0 | 0 | true |
index_23901 | Review title is with this product is so easy to dry them up [SEP] washing the brushes cannot be easier. I know i gotta wash the brushes often but laying it down on the towel is bit frustrating. However, with this product is so easy to dry them up. Strongly recommend besides it is reasonable price. | 1 | 0 | true |
index_13565 | Review title is Four Stars [SEP] Good product. Works fine. | 0 | 0 | true |
index_23500 | Review title is great sonic brush for the price [SEP] This brush was recommended to me by my own dentist. He wanted me to try a sonic brush, but avoid paying the very high prices out there. The results so far have been nothing but very clean teeth and gums. There is also a 2 minute timer which helps a lot. I dont understand the negative feedback with a $20 brush. Yeah, it only has a 20,000 vpm instead of the 30,000 vpm expensive sonic brushes... but your cost is a fraction of those. Great buy forthe money. | 0 | 4 | false |
index_33566 | Review title is Love this razer, just like I loved the previous model (same razer) [SEP] Summary: Nothing not to like!<br /><br />Background: Previously, I owned the earlier model of this razer. It was the same exact razer except it used to be blue. I loved this razer, but it was eaten by a dog! I didnt want to cough up the full cost of this direct replacement, so I used a lower-end Norelco. As you may know, the lower models do not feature the "Speed-XL" shaving heads (which have 3 concentric rings of blades (per head)). Instead it had the single outer row of blades, which is pretty typical of any non-high-end razer.<br /><br />Why this razer is good:<br />The point of my background story is that there is a SIGNIFICANT difference between the Speed-XL models, and older style heads. In fact THERE IS NO COMPARISON! With the cheaper razer I had to go over my face at least twice as much, and usually more like 3x as much as with this razer. As with all electric's, you're not going to be able to make a single pass and get everything, but as electric's go, this razer (and all the Norelco's with Speed-XL) works great. Both myself and my dad (who is used to foil razers) agree that Speed-XL is the best electric we've used!<br /><br />Some niceties of this razer are that its VERY easy to clean. Usually you can just pop the top and tap most of the hair out, maybe use the brush real quick. I dont feel like I have to do a deep cleaning (taking the heads out and apart) very often because it doesnt seem to trap a lot of hair in the heads. But if you want to, its very easy to access everything.<br />The body is waterproof, so you can clean it out with water as a middle ground between just tapping hair out and dissassembly.<br />The charger is now VERY small, and takes up only a single plug (even on a strip), and the base is also small.<br />Battery life: lets me shave for multiple days (at least 4) before it needs charging.<br /><br />That said there are some minor quibbles. Like most Norelco razers, the charger doesnt shut off automatically, so you need to be careful with leaving it plugged in all the time. My solution: leave the charger in a draw, keep the stand on my countertop to hold the razer all the time, and then just get the charger out (and plug it into the stand) when the razer actually needs charged, which for me is only ever handful of days. this also has the added benefit of saving some small amount of energy by not having the wall wart plugged in while you're not charging.<br />This razer now comes with a form fitting travel case, and you cant put the razer in it with the hair gaurd on it :( so make sure you clean it before you travel with it. You also cant fit the charger in the case...its really a case JUST for the razer, to protect it in your regular toiletries bag.<br /><br />All in all any of the speed-xl razers will cut the same, so just buy the model that has the accessories you want. I think this model represents the best value because its the cheapest :) personally i dont care about a multi-step battery readout, or a cleaning station...but if you do buy those versions. | 1 | 1 | true |

index_33004 | Review title is Love! [SEP] First, I'll say this: this is a beautiful set of brushes, and I absolutely love them. It was like Christmas morning, opening this package! However, the largest brush got incorrectly placed in the packaging at the manufacturing/assembly point (see photo), and the bristles on that side are now misshapen. Obviously, that will affect the performance of the brush, and I'm not going to mess with washing it and trying to reshape the bristles (which probably won't work anyway). So I ordered another set, and the first defective one will be returned. Hopefully, the second one will be better. I docked a star for this, but if the second one comes in better shape, and the brushes hold up long-term (or don't), I may change my rating.<br /><br />EDIT: Ordered a second one, but waited to send back the first one. So glad I did. The replacement was in worse shape than the first, with THREE brushes shifted out of place and potentially crimped in the same way (see photo). So I didn't even open it, I just sent the second one back. More care needs to be taken by the seller and manufacturer. If you don't mind dealing with this type of hassle, try them. I'm hoping that my large brush's shape self-corrects after I wash it for the first time. | 0 | 3 | true |
index_403 | Review title is Great alternative to the salon & pricey nail wraps [SEP] I love to have pretty nails but we are constantly doing some kind of project around our home.<br /><br />I generally don't have time to go to get my nails done because with 4 kids and a hubby that works crazy hours it's hard to schedule.<br /><br />I've been very fond of the Jamberry brand but unless I put a clear gel top coat on my nails look awful after a day or two. Also these don't need a heater or blow dryer to apply.<br /><br />I really like all the designs in this package and that it took no special heater or tools to put these on my nails. I only needed a nail file and it took less than 5 minutes to do 5 fingers.<br /><br />A great alternative to pricey salon trips.<br /><br />I paid full price for this item and provided this review for informational purposes only. | 1 | 0 | true |

index_3595 | Review title is Great quality [SEP] Shipping was quick and the item came just as described. I have used the BB cream before and I'm excited to try out the BB boomer. Love this stuff, much better than anything I can find in stores in America. I will definitely order again! | 1 | 1 | true |

index_3313 | Review title is I don't know what Peptides are but I LOVE them! [SEP] I'm in love with this moisturizer. First off, I have to talk about the quality of the bottle. Not only is it gorgeous but it's soft like a baby's butt. Before you even open the bottle, you know their claim of Luxury is true. The pump is quality as well. I've had some that are all over the place. I use one pump for my neck and one for my face. I tend to have oily areas on my face but this seems to be reducing that problem. The scent is faint which I like but I love that it's made in America and not tested on animals. Great product! | 1 | 4 | false |
index_22281 | Review title is Decent Shaver for the Price [SEP] This is a decent shaver but I would have liked it if we could read the box and information included.<br />Unfortunately it was in another language so we made do with using them.<br />It takes a bit to get used to but they seem to last long enough to get your monies worth out of them. | 0 | 0 | false |

index_31743 | Review title is Instant Updo [SEP] I like these clips because you have the option of threading a scarf or ribbons through them.<br />I have longer hair, but its very fine.<br />As you can see, even fine hair stays securely up.<br />Nice assortment of designs.<br />The hinges are on the tight side. They appear to be well made but time will tell.<br />The teeth do not bend. Some of the ends of the teeth on some of them have a bit of roughness, as if they need to be filed smooth. Not taking any points away for that, given the low price point. | 1 | 2 | false |

index_2518 | Review title is A Stellar Product at a Great Price [SEP] I used to use the Smooth shampoo with the Smooth conditioner but it seems that the Smooth shampoo is no longer available. This product does an excellent job but it smells just like GK Global Keratin shampoo which is the world’s best in Keratin conditioning and smoothing but not my favorite scent. You will probably like it. i’m just really picky about fragrances.<br /><br />This shampoo definitely has an extra something above and b you did the GK brand that makes my hair so shiny that it practically sparkles. It’s amazing how it catches the light. The product definitely lives up to its name and the price point is very economical.<br /><br />Highly recommend if you want to have amazing shine with a sulfate - free shampoo. | 1 | 0 | true |

index_14721 | Review title is Great protection for concrete dermatitis [SEP] My husband has developed an allergy to the concrete products he works with daily. The reaction caused concrete dermatitis and later he developed a bad reaction to epoxy resins. After 20 years, his hands got so bad he was faced with leaving his craft. This cream has turned that around and I'm so happy he's found relief. | 1 | 1 | true |

It's not the best vitamin c serum I've used- it doesn't do much for my redness- but it's done nice things for my skin's texture and hasn't broken me out like some reviewers have said. I'd consider buying it again, should the price of my preferred serum increase. | 0 | 1 | false |

index_29435 | Review title is Awesome [SEP] Review for: 100% PURE Coconut Body Scrub<br /><br />I love body scrubs and I love when they have an oil base that that helps to fight winter dryness. This one has a wonderful oil base that coats my skin and really hydrates it. It also smells fantastic. Because this is oil based, it does leave any oily film on my shower floor. I deal with this by turning my hot water all the way up and then rinsing the floor really well before getting out of the shower. | 1 | 0 | false |

index_10839 | Review title is Very soft and pretty! [SEP] I absolutely love this wig! It is sooooo soft and it looks and feels real! It's easy to install. I love the packaging it came in which included eyelashes(thank you)! The box is very nice, durable and reusable. I'm a sucker for reusing nice packaging to store my wig when I'm done with it for a little while. I highly recommend this wig and this brand! | 1 | 2 | true |
index_30002 | Review title is Fabulous [SEP] I saw this on QVC but I didn't like QVC's price so I ordered from amazon. This works better than anything I have ever used. I'm in bare feet quite a bit because I teach yoga classes and I'm on lots of different surfaces so my feet get rough at the heels. This smooths then right out. | 1 | 1 | true |

index_8170 | Review title is Moisturizing effect lasts all day [SEP] This week I have tried this to minimize the appearance of wrinkles. While I did not notice a huge difference, I did feel that patting this into wrinkled areas did give a somewhat revived look and the moisturizing effect lasted all day. I recommend using this in very small quantities. This is not a miracle working product, but neither is it entirely worthless. | 0 | 1 | false |
index_27476 | Review title is this is a medium tint- definitely gives sun kissed glow, absorbs well, hydrates, non greasy [SEP] Oops! I didn't realize when I ordered this that it says, "medium" in the product description, which is what I assume is the level of tint as this is a tad dark for my very fair skin. I don't see an option for any other tint level, so this might be it. Medium-- which appears rather dark and warm directly out from bottle, BUT after it is applied it seems to just blend in- albeit just a hint of color-- not opaque like a foundation. I am surprised it blended in as much as it does as my skin is quite fair & pink, with cool undertones. Still, I likely won't use this by itself. It blends in, but it gives me a slight tanned look, "a sun kissed glow". Tells me that with sweat or uneven application I could have trouble with resulting look. My plan is to mix it in with one of my sunscreens that have a greater white cast..<br /><br />This is a physical (ie mineral) sunscreen, using zinc oxide. Physical Sunscreens work by sitting on top of the skin to deflect and scatter damaging UV rays away from the skin (whereas chemical sunscreens absorb rays, converts them to heat, then releases). They are often referred to as physical blockers. The benefit of using zinc oxide is its strength in protecting your skin against the sun. It is one of the most effective sun protectors available, blocking out both short and long UVA rays and all UVB rays. Either type is great, and it depends on what works best with your skin.<br /><br />This product is rated as having a BROAD SPECTRUM sun protection factor of 31 (you want anything over 25). There are some other delicious, skin loving ingredients contained in this product such as shea butter, jojoba, oilve oil, and vitamin e. It comes out thin, and applies smoothly. It provides a light sheen which you may or may not like. Not greasy. It absorbs well. I really like the multi action sunscreens. While I wear sunscreen all year round, and I have elaborate skin care routines.. I tend to keep it super simple in the summer. I tend to forgo my morning skin care ritual for just sunscreen (I figure I will be reapplying often, sweating it off, etc.. so why waste other skin care goodies when I can find a decent SPF product that will also moisturized my skin). So with this having ingredients that are good for my skin and help keep it moisturized, I feel better about keeping it so simple.<br /><br />Again, I would like it better if the tint was a better match. That is on me that I didn't notice the "medium" in the description. And it also says that it gives skin a "sun kissed glow". If that is at all appealing to you, then give this a try. If your skin is anything darker or warmer than cool, fair skin.. then give this a try. There is NO WHITE cast, at all. If your skin is real oily, then this may be too much for you.. not sure. It feels goo on my normal to dry skin; seems to absorb. It doesn't feel heavy, and it doesn't feel like... sunscreen. It is light.<br /><br />My skin: mid 40s, leans dry, semi sensitive, non-acne Rosacea (redness, visible veins), I avoid sun-- I always use SPF all year, and often wear a hat or visor. My favorite skin care is sunscreen. If I use nothing else, it is sunscreen that I keep in my routine. I go through a lot, and try a lot.. if I don't like it for my face & neck, then it gets used on rest of body. This is a new brand for me to try, and so far I like it (even though I have to tone it down by adding it to one of my more white cast sunscreens.. OR go for the sun kissed glow).<br /><br />I hope this helped . I will be back to update if I learn anything new, or think of anything else. | 1 | 5 | false |
