Secret Clinical Strength Waterproof
Great for the triathalons, the pool, the beach , hot sweaty summer days, or vacation
I tried a sample of this. The smell was flowery, but not too strong. It kept me completely dry all day and odor free all day (not usually a problem for me on a normal day anyway). I tried it in the morning before going for an active day at the beach. The scent faded a bit, but it kept me dry and smelling good all day and night (I even felt comfortable/confident stopping for a bite for dinner without reapplying). Nice not to have to carry deodorant in my bag.

This is my everyday hairspray of choice. It keeps my hairstyle's shape, does not way down or frizz out my straight, fine hair. It does not look or feel like I am wearing hairspray. It makes my hair shiny and healthy looking. I use this every single day. It has a soft light fragrance and, bonus, it is inexpensive!

This product did not irritate and did cover dark circles, but the color selection did not work for me. They are more ashy, than brightening on my and look chalky on my light-medium warm skin tone. It also caked a little into the fine lines by the end of the day. Clinique's is cheaper and has better colors and a better finish. The brush applicator is good quality.

I really like this conditioner. It contains a lot of fragrance which is a light pleasant floral. It is lightweight and does not weigh down very fine hair, but still conditions. My hair is slightly dry afterward, but for me it is better than flat and it does leave it managable. I also don't get the blonde expressions part. I have tried both the blonde and brunette varieties and notice no difference nor any more shine than other good conditioners. Still, I really like this and would buy it again.

This shampoo contains quite a bit of fragrance. It has a strong sheer floral scent which is pleasant but stronger than I like. It thoroughly cleans, lathers well, and rinses completely. I am unsure of the blonde expressions gimmick, because I do not notice any color enhancement or shine that I do not get with the brunette version or any other quality shampoo, especially since it rinses out. If it left deposits, it would weigh the hair down--I have fine hair and have to say it does not. I like it, just don't like gimmicks. I would use it again, but prefer Suave.

This is a reasonably priced conditioner that works well for the first few weeks after my fine hair is highlighted. After that it weighs down my hair too much. It also is very heavily fragranced with a strong but nice citrus smell--I think it makes my scalp itch after awhile so watch out if you have sensitive skin.

I thought this dried out my hair a bit, but was fine as a body wash. It did not irritate my sensitive skin but beware if your skin is allergy prone because of course it is fragranced. I loved the fresh, light floral fragrance that impermeated the shower, but it disappated quickly after my shower. It is a bit pricey for a really average body wash. If you buy it to use as aromatherapy in the shower/bath which is probably what it is designed for and it makes you happy to start your day with, you will love it.

This product sprays in a fine mist. It holds, is very touchable, looks and feels natural, leaves hair very shiny, and keeps frizz at bay. I have baby fine, straight hair and love this spray. The downside is that it is a little bit pricey and has a very strong fragrance I could do without.

I got a sample of this and did not care for it. It had a strong mature woman type of smell and was very thick. It is very overpriced and really did not do it for me. I like other eye creams much better. It did not absorb as well or moisturize as well as other eye treatments.

I tried a sample of this eye cream and recommend passing on it. It is expensive, potentially irriating and phototoxic, badly packaged, and contains little antioxidants. It did work well under my eye makeup and puffed out the wrinkles under my eyes. It also made my lids a bit uncomfortable. I proceeded to look up the ingredients. The formula mainly contains emollients which makes it way too expensive compaired to other eye creams with better ingrendients more bountifully at the beginning of the ingredient list. Angelica Archangelica Root Water has the potential to be phototoxic which means can make your skin way more sensitive to sunlight, which I defininitely do not want around my eyes. It contains thyme and orange peel, which are potential skin irritants. Finally the jar packaging allow oxidation of the minimal of antioxidants in the cream and encourages bacteria growth.
