Dr. Bronner's Tea Tree Pure-Castile Liquid Soap

Rinses Clean

Having sensitive skin my favorites are: almond, lavender and fragrance-free for sensitive skin. I love that it's mostly organic, the way it lathers and rinses off completely. The best way to freshen up after a hot summer day. My husband's favs are: tea tree oil, peppermint & eucalyptus.

Redken Color Extend Conditioner

Pretty good light conditioner.

I'm not sure this does much to help protect my color treated hair from fading but it is a nice light conditioner. I have slightly oily hair & this leaves my hair smooth without weighing it down.

Redken Water Wax 03 Shine Defining Pomade

Adds sheen & definition.

I have thick, straight Asian hair and loved this for adding definition to my short hair cut. It also washes out easily.

Joico Color Endure Sulfate-Free Shampoo

Works well but best for dry hair.

I like the way this conditions my color treated hair but I have slightly oily hair so it is a bit too heavy. I only use it occasionally.

Joico K-PAK Shampoo

Best for dry hair.

This leaves my color treated hair soft, silky & shiny. However, I have slightly oily hair so it's a bit too heavy for me. I only use it once in a while.

OPI Avoplex Exfoliating Cuticle Treatment

Tames cuticles w/o damaging my nails.

I gave up on using cuticle removers because they seemed to soak into my nails & weaken them until I tried this one by OPI. Being a frequent hand washer who doesn't regularly apply lotion throughout the day, I develop hangnails & dry areas around my nail bed. To combat this, I apply this product & leave it on for about 5 minutes. Then I use a wash cloth to clean it off and gently push back my cuticles. Any remaining hang nails are softened and easy to trim at the base. This works so well, I buy it despite its price.

Clairol Nice 'n Easy ColorSeal Conditioning Gloss

THE best deep conditioner from the drugstore!

This stuff makes my color treated hair shiny & silky w/o weighing down my straight strands! It is thick and concentrated so it stays in place if you use it as a hair mask & a little goes a long way. This is my all time favorite bargain hair care product.

Barielle Natural Nail Camouflage

Makes nails look healthy & glossy.

I love using this alone or as a base coat for my pedicures. It gives my nails a lovely, healthy sheen & lasts! The only drawback is the price.

Schick Quattro for Women

My favorite razor!

I love the weight and maneuverability of this razor. Coupled w/ Aveeno's shave gel, I get the closest shave ever.
