This is a great product when you use as intended. Unless your hair turns to one huge mess of grease, cholorine, or product buildup, everyday use of this product isn't for you. I use only once or twice a month to rid my hair of the gunk that seems to build up over time. It does strip your hair of EVERYTHING and can be harsh on color treated hair. I make sure to follow with a gloss or a deep conditioner after I use.

As soon as you give Clinique Happy a whiff you will understand why this it is one of the most popular fragrances out there. It's not overbearing or old ladyish, it's soft, citrusy, and...well, happy. The lightness of it makes it great for day, but it's also got a bit of sex appeal that works well for night.

Your liking of this product is completely dependent on portion control. Overuse will make your hair crunchy and sticky. I only use this when I straighten. I have semi-fine hair and so I use just a few sprays per section. It not only makes my hair soft and manageable, but offers amazing heat protection (i've noticed less split ends with frequent use).

I patiently gurgle and swish with Listerine Cool Mint every morning and it's never done me wrong. My mouth feels cool, minty and fresh after every use. I've also noticed much fresher breath all throughout the day. One more positive, it's not at all expensive. Absolutely worth your money and time.

Where to even begin?! The brush is ridiculous. It has no handle meaning you have no leverage. The formula itself makes blending difficult and the brush seals the deal. Everytime I attempt to use it I end up with powder everywhere. Magically, this creates dark cakey spots on my face, yet offers absoutely no coverage. The one postive? It does mattify...still absolutely worthless.

This blush is a wonderful example of how cream blushes are often more blendable, and natural looking than powders. The smooth, creamy consistency makes application virtually fool proof. The natural flush it gives also lasts all day. One trick: Use a blush brush to apply this cream. It will give an airbrushed finish.

This gloss is supposed to give customized color, and that it does...a customized shade of pink, anyway. My color of pink is a bright, but natural looking shade. My mom's color is similar to a neon pink glowstick. That being said, this gloss works well for some and horribly for others. Just to be sure you don't end up looking like Barbie gone wrong, I would absolutely play it safe and try the gloss on (at Sephora or anywhere else) before you purchase.

John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Shine Shock, Leave On Perfecting Glosser
Didn't do anything for my Brunette
This does leave hair soft and shiny when used correctly. Overapplying will make oily prone hair look straggly and greasy. My issue is that this added nothing but shine to my brunette hair. You can get shine from most serums out there...It didn't give any oomph to my color whatsoever.

This is a great basic toothpaste. It freshens my breath and removes plaque fairly well. If you have sensitive teeth I wouldn't recommend this...the whitening agents can increase sensitivity on both your teeth and gums.

I dislike this concealer for several reasons...first of all it's limiting. Yes it works on blemishes, but I wouldn't dare put salycic acid on the dry,fragile skin underneath my eyes. Secondly, it's chalky. I have fairly pale skin and the "light" color is much too white for my skin. It doesn't blend well either. Finally, the salycic acid might work a little to reduce blemishes, but it certainly didn't dry them up like i'd hoped. I will not be repurchasing.
