Is there a difference in performance of these Hibiscus lids vs the "Lilypad" design? Both are Charles Viancin product. Is one a new & better version?

Both styles work the same. I think Lilypad was the first style I had to have. I like having a variety for different times of year or party themes. This is a great set.

I find they work the same. I like the shape of the hibiscus, both are wonderful products.

I have several different designs and they all work the same . Just your personal preference in looks

I have not noticed any difference in performance in any of the designs. I have used the sunflower, hibiscus, lily pad and snowflake. I recommend choosing the design you like at the best price point.

I ordered 2 of these while waiting for my Young Living order to come. YL was out of the rose diffuser and sent the teardrop one (which is supposed to be worth $150)... I am not happy with the YL one... I may even see about returning it. The Daisy Smile one is MUCH better in all aspects. I am online now ordering 2 more!

I never really noticed a difference. I started using Sambucus when, for some reason, Sambucol became unavailable. When it again became available I switched back to it since it was the original which I knew most of the time worked. I don't haven any definite examples, but I felt like the original worked a tad better. Nothing's 100%, but I think it does help.

can also pull them off with a little effort. I also bought the WalMart "Better Homes and Garden" container w/ the flip lock lid and I can do the same with a little more effort. I've had them for 6 mos. they both seem to keep things fresh and bugs out. (I live in Florida). They also look nice on the counter.

The lids with this company has been a problem with cleaning issues, especially if you use half and half or milk in your coffee. They are now on their 3 lid design and I think they have finally designed an acceptable lid for cleaning. Make sure you get the latest lid design, the other two are no good.

I have been using Skin Medica TNS Complex for more than 10 years. All the containers which I have purchased have the same style/featuring the hole at the base of the item. It has never present a problem for me.

The lids I had did, guessing since I received this question I must have bought the medium. But, they did no fit well, they would slip off, so I returned them. Also, the indent interfered with stuff in the bowl, so the bowl could not be full with the lid on. Bought instead some Silikomart Coverflex Reusable Silicone Food Covers, X-Large, 8.3-Inch - and they work great.

Yes and yes. Apparently they changed the design. I was a little confused, too, but went out on a limb and bought it and found it is exactly the same as the clear plastic with light blue lid. Glad I could help!

Dear Mr/Ms. Thecrap,No idea if Teavana sells replacement lids - though I certainly hope they do. After my g/f broke my awesome Grande Tasse Glass Tea Mug, it's a strict "hands-off" policy around my Alasdair.Definitely worth reaching out to the company. Please see the link below:http://www.teavana.com/customer-service/helpAnd good luck! If it's any consolation, you have excellent taste :)-McAwesome

I would imagine that it is the same concept. The difference is the design and size of the keeper. I love mine, in fact, I have two, the one you are asking about and a Pampered Chef. Sometimes I have herbs in one and celery in the other. Hope this helps.

Dear M, I purchased 2 of the vintage Chinese fortune sticks. I gave one as a present and I kept one. They appeared to be handmade. So the lid fits somewhat tightly but not securely.

I own both versions: gave the original to my parents and by the time I went to buy my replacement, the short version came out. Short Jar is the newer version, likely meant to mimic the newer Vitamix squat jar type. With the short jar, it barely fits under cabinets, but it does fit. Personally, I think it looks better too. Base of the units are identical, except in coloring. Short version has red accents. While I have not done a side by side comparison, I get the feeling that the tall jar blends a bit better. I think the blades are identical between the 2 jars, but the more narrow profile of the tall jar seems to suck material towards the blades a bit better. I feel like I've had to use the plunger a bit more in the squat jar, since it's wider and didn't seem to homogenize as well by itself. At the end of the day, however, for me, the short jar allows me to keep it on the counter and actually use it on a whim, vs. stuff it away and have it fall out of mind. So, in terms of living with it, I'd vote for short.

My lids are also very oily that a lot of brands just don't work on me. I would say for its long lasting power, its worth a 4 out of 5, it does smudge a little throughout the day. I've used the color blackest black and eggplant, blackest black has a much stronger staying power than the eggplant one. Due to my past experience over many smudging eyeliners, this is definitely worth the purchase.

A doctor recommended Glasslock or LocknLock. Some of the reviews made me want to stick with the Pyrex.The Anchor Hocking lids that I have crack and don't say "BPA free". It's been a while since I bought them. But my many Pyrex lids that are just as old are all fine except one.

I own several of both containers. The only differences I note is the "pet container" version lid has a round pop up handle and the other has a square. The opening on the pet version is also slightly fluted s lids do not interchange between the two types. I have no idea why the slight difference and both work exactly the same otherwise.

Bought mine years ago based on the "hype" and I liked the way it handled but didn't see a monster difference. I think it just fit well against my lid and reached all lashes from edge to edge. It felt good to handle and squeeze and I didn't have issues with right vs left hand/eye. What is critical is the shape of the curler and how well it fits against YOUR eyelid to pick up lashes. Shu has a softer silicone pad that does do a softer curved crimp for me vs the acute 90 degree bend with a harder rubber pad like Shiseido. I can skip the 3 crimp (base, middle, tip) technique with my Shu curler with Shu pad. It does a great job for me with shorter stick straight lashes. I used to heat my curlers w/ my hair dryer to get a better holding curl. I don't have to heat with Shu. The choice of mascara (H2O proof, watery or dry, fibers or not) and brush shape(comb or bristles) is the other part of the whole eyelash process. What does the hype say? Googled it and found from InStyle magazine: &lt;Shu Uemura: Winner ('13), `12, `11, `10, `09, `05 Unlike most in its category, this tool "is easy to hold and fits all eye shapes," says L.A. makeup pro Megan Lanoux. And it legitimately curls (not bends or creases) lashes.&gt; We are having problems buying refills online for this curler so are buying Shiseido refills from Amazon which costs as much to ship as the 2 pk refill. I would love to have someone answer this for you who has new curlers from Shu and Shiseido and compares.

They are both made by Nature2 and the only difference is the color and the cap. I popped the cap off my blue one and put that on the yellow one as they are much cheaper and easier to find.
