I like the mascara pretty well ... there are better & worse out there. Just got the powder compact ... I've been using MAC blot powder for many years, but suddenly it smells God awful so I had to make a change (I think they took out the fragrance or something?). This one smells fabulous & has a beautiful texture. Also the rose gold packaging is really pretty. I also got samples of the mud mask (which doesn't harden) & the illuminator (but I don't see myself adding another product!), which I haven't tried yet. Haven't tried the magic cream yet ... but I was told it outsells La Mer at Barney's where both are available. I'm pretty happy with Fresh's black tea cream, so it would have to be clearly better than that ...
