I think it's great to have a list of the best products including their price range. It helps a lot to know what products work before you spend alot of money on something either for yourself or as a gift. And the presentation was nicely done.

Thanks for the fabulous readers' choice article. Avon is more popular than I thought! Curious though, I did not see a single Mary Kay product listed. I'm always hearing how great their products are (and I don't doubt that they are) but where are they on this list?

I agree on some of the products, but there a few that I have tried that I am not crazy about. (Coconut Body Butter can be a bit on the greasy side)

There are a few products too that I think should have made the list, like Trichomania shampoo from Lush, or Dior "Show" mascara.

Interesting selection though, and I will definitely be trying out some of the winning products.

Awesome summary of quality products relative to their price...we're remiss in ommitting "Physician's Choice" products however!

Use Pears soap; it helps you keep young-looking. Also, drink lots of water.
I'm 41 and people tell me that I look young for my age.

This survey is a great idea.

I would like to add that H2O has excellent products. On par with The Body Shop. I've found any product from them to be exceptional. I use their shampoo, shower gels and lotions almost exclusively now.

For my fine hair I like Clairol's Herbal Essences hair colour... nice colour, nice smell and my hair feels and looks good. I've found L'Oreal products have a strong smell that seems to linger; my hair gets dry and brittle and no amount of conditioning helps.

Could someone please let me know if there is a fragrance shop in Vancouver other than in a department store? You often have articles on new fragrance products but I have trouble finding them.

Using great products is one thing, however, no amount of ANY product will ever supplement key elements like a healthy diet, enough sleep, exercise and a general overall positive attitude towards life. Genetics also play their part. The beauty industry would have us believe that beauty can be had in a bottle, dream on.

I had work done on my upper lip when I was much younger and I can't find any cream that makes my skin feel not dry.

I love Mary Kay! Thirteen years ago I thought MK was for women over 80...glad I was educated! It has been America's #1 Brand for 12 years.

The products do what they say and a little goes a long way.

Tickled Pink!

So thrilled to see that Lush is appreciated enough to be on the list. I LOVE LUSH! Just finished my big holiday order - cannot go a day without using one product or another. If you haven't tried it, do so today. You'll become addicted for sure!!!

I'm so happy to see that LUSH is on this list. I found LUSH a little over a year ago and now that is the only product I use from head to toe, including my entire family of four. I'm happy to see that a company that makes everything handmade is appreciated and finally being found in the masses.

Lush products are great, and I'm looking forward to seeing some Smashbox and Benefit products on the list. Try these products, ladies - they are awesome! Great survey - thanks FASHION for giving us tips, tricks and other ladies' reviews.

This is the first time I have heard of Lush. So many readers comments are about this. What is it and where can I get it in Eastern Canada?

If any one has persistent dry skin (like me in desert condition- Kelowna BC) you have to try the Body Shop's Hemp Face Protector. I have tried EVERYTHING!! Body Shop has the best face moisturizer by far for the money ($14), I tried to stay with natural ingredients but you need some help sometimes. Trust me, this stuff is amazing!

I am an AVON sales rep and I am so glad that our products are on the list because they are truly amazing. That's why I became a rep. I have tried many other brands but Avon is simply the best for the money. I will never go back to my drugstore brands and other over priced products. I recommend the new fragrance by Patrick Dempsey, Unscripted and U by Ungaro. Contact your local sales rep and discover the wonderful products Avon has to offer!
