I'm surprised by the many great reviews for this gradual self-tanner, because I disliked it so much. I had three big problems with this lotion: 1. Not enough color. I'm very fair, but the "Fair Skin Tones" shade did not make much of an impact over the course of a few days. I felt like I'd wasted my money having to use so much of the product before I saw any difference. 2. Minimal moisturization. Hours after applying this so-called "moisturizing lotion", my shins were very dry. I expect better from Aveeno. 3. Odd smell. This product does dry faster than many lotion-based tanners, but until it dries, it smells bothersomely bad. I won't buy this again.

This mousse truly did make my fine hair feel thicker, while making it more manageable. It didn't leave my hair stiff or sticky in any way, and the volume lasted for most of the day. I've tried most drugstore volumizing mousses, so I can say from experience that this is one of the best! Highly recommended.

This conditioner is excellent! It left my hair extraordinarily soft and shiny, without making it flat. It smells pretty and is reasonably priced. I highly recommend it.

This is the best shine-enhancing shampoo I've tried. It makes my hair extra soft and shiny, without weighing it down. I honestly could not stop touching my hair after using it! The stuff smells good, too. Highly recommended.

I bought this instead of my usual Full & Soft because I'd read great things about it. Unfortuneately, I'm not that impressed. I wish the bristles on the brush were longer, to better comb through my eyelashes. The part of the tube that cleans the brush when you pull it out should be smaller, too, because I found myself needing to wipe the excess off on a kleenex (I hate doing that because it makes me feel like I'm throwing away half the mascara that I paid for). The formula itself is good: Long-lasting, not at all flaky. It's not bad at all - just not that great overall.

This shampoo, with it's accompanying conditioner, worked absolute miracles for my heat-and-highlight-damaged hair. It provided superior moisturization without an ounce of added weight. I think my fine hair even felt thicker after using it, in addition to being impeccably soft. I'll continue to use this, and I highly recommend it!

This is a great highlighting kit that yields professional-looking color. The cap takes time and patience to work with, but the results are worth it. If you've used L'Oreal's Frost & Design kit and found that you end up wasting a large portion of the product (as I have, because they give you TONS), buy this next time! It's the same product, just less of it, for half the price. I have hair that's about 4 inches past my shoulders, and there was enough product here for widely-spaced, all-over highlights...for only $7!

I really like this brush. It's soft, the bristles are packed to just the right density, and it's a good shape. I've used it for three months, and I've had no issues with bristles falling out, or anything. The fact that I got it on sale for less than $2 makes it even better!

I wanted to love this product, with it's pretty metallic pink tube, mild exfoliating feel, and promise of "cellualr renewal". Alas, after a few days of use, I ended up with red, inflamed patches on my face. I blamed it on a few other products I'd been using before finally tracing it to this cleanser. It took a week of using pore-clogging hydrocortisone cream to calm the rash down. That was five months ago. I tried to use the cleanser once again, just the other day (to test if it was a temporary problem I was having), and that rash flared right back up. Perhaps for someone who doesn't have remotely sensitive skin (which I didn't, prior to using this), this might be a decent product.

I use this to wash my face in the morning, when I don't have any makeup to remove. I love how it doesn't dry my skin out in the slightest, and how it hasn't affected my mild adult acne in any negative way. I have issues with irritaion from time to time (love trying new products too much), and this usually clears the problem right up. I love how I don't have to rush to apply moisturizer the second my face dries after using this, too - that's such a plus! Oh, and the price makes it even better.
