I have fine hair that's REALLY easily weighed down...however, in the winter I need a little something extra more than a lightweight conditioner because my hair tends to get static-y. For me, this conditioner has the perfect balance of conditioning and protecting my hair without weighing it down. Plus, it smells super yummy and is perfect for wintertime when I like my products to smell more warm and cuddly than fresh and floral. I guess I'm weird like that. But I'll give it 9 stars, because for users with different hair types than my own, I can see where this wouldn't live up to its claims of deep treating dry and damaged hair.

This brush rocks...and not just because it costs $1. I think it rivals other eyeshadow brushes I've used in quality, and it does a nice job. The bristles could stand to be a little softer and more flexible, but that's just a tiny gripe because overall, how could you not pick one of these up?

I bought this lipgloss to satisfy my craving for sparkly lips...it's super shimmery, and it does have some sparkle to it. I have it in Lotus, and it's a light peachy-pink universal shade that looks really nice. However, it irritates my lips if I use it too many times in a row, and the staying power isn't exceptional. Also, the brush seems to get gloss outside of the tube on the part where it screws into the lid, which is kind of annoying. Also, small size and not as much gloss in there as I would like.

I have had this blowdryer for 3 years or so, and it's good enough I suppose...the pink is super cute, and it was super affordable, and it's lasted me this long without any problems. It doesn't seem like it gets really hot though, and it takes longer to dry my hair than lots of other dryers do, however, those dryers are usually way more expensive! It's not a huge deal because I know it's not damaging my hair, and my hair definitely doesn't look fried like I blowdry the crap out of it every day. I never get my hair completely dry with this because I just don't have the patience, but it was affordable, it's lasted, and it works pretty well.

This is my absolute favorite lotion for my baby girl. It keeps her skin moisturized until the next bath, and the fragrance is to die for...it's like aromatherapy but soft and yummy at the same time. The tube also lasts for a long time, and for the price I think it's a fearsome competitor to more expensive baby products that are outside of the usual. I wish this was the only lotion I have for her, because the other ones just don't ever get used!

This is a really good lotion for the price. It goes on smooth and absorbs well, without making my skin feel greasy. I do notice that my skin doesn't feel dry until way later, but I don't feel like it does a super job of deeply moisturizing the areas that are really prone to dryness. The fragrance is nice though, and overall it's a pretty good lotion for the price, and you get a huge amount in the bottle too.

This stuff works pretty well for Colorado winters. It goes on super easy, and it totally doesn't feel like you just put lotion on because it kind of disappears into your hands. It keeps my hands from feeling dry for most of the day, and the miraculous claim that it lasts through handwashing is partly true...my hands don't get all slimy as soon as they get wet like what happens with any other lotion, which is pretty mind-boggling. And after washing, my hands don't necessarily feel dry, but they don't feel completely moisturized either...but I have no problem putting this stuff on again. It works better than any other hand lotion I've tried.

This has the perfect balance of conditioning my hair without leaving stuff behind, leaving it prone to get dirty super fast like what happens with other products. It smells really yummy, and it goes on really light and is more gel-like than creamy. It rinses out well and leaves my hair looking super clean and happy. My only gripe with this stuff, like in my review for the matching shampoo, is that I can only use it for a couple days in a row without alternating with something else, because otherwise it feels like it just takes everything out of my hair, leaving it really lifeless. These are awesome products to use a few times a week though :)

I really like this shampoo...lately my hair just hasn't been seeming to stay clean for more than like half a day, and this stuff does the trick. Because of working SUPER early in the morning, I take showers in the evening, and with other shampoos and conditioners my bangs are a little bit greasy as soon as I get up the next day. That totally doesn't happen with this and its matching conditioner, and the fragrance is awesome. However, I can't use it for more than just a couple days in a row without alternating with something else, because otherwise it strips everything out of my hair leaving it completely lifeless and blah. Overall though, this shampoo gets the job done.

I always thought this product was a cool idea, but I had a hard time justifying paying the normal price for it without really knowing much about it. Now that Walgreens is clearancing all their PF products, I picked one up. Like another reviewer, I think the packaging is a little unnecessarily much...it's a HUGE compact for one eyeshadow and a little brush, and it takes up a lot of space in my makeup bag. The brush also isn't the greatest, because it lost like 4 bristles the first time I used it, which luckily didn't go into my eyes. As for the product itself, it is pretty good, but goes on a little grainy. The brightening effect is cool, but on me I think it looks a little overdone and old-lady-ish...but I will keep practicing and try to find a way to wear it that really works for me. I wish I liked this product as much as everybody else does, but sadly not :(
