Typically the Silk Fuel is an in-salon deep conditioning treatment. Sometimes we can get a hold of these on ebay or craigslist or other such websites that allow non-professionals to obtain them. Either way, Silk Fuel supposedly "Instantly transforms the texture of very dry, brittle hair to a softer, shinier, more manageable condition. The exclusive formula delivers a concentrated dose of targeted softening ingredients. Hair is soft as silk with supple movement, sleek control and conditioning shine." That is a claim of theirs, and my take on it is that these little packets are in the perfect dosage for an in-shower treatment, and the smell is divine. There are a lot of moisturizing ingredients, so this would do a good job of silkening brittle hair. I love also that this doesn't just smooth hair, it makes it more healthy each time you use it. Instantly there is improvement, as well as over time. Excellent buy for home, but don't waste your money in the salon for the treatment if you can do it yourself.

This really smells great, and you only need a teensy little bit to get the job done, which makes it worth your money in the long run... But I have tried a lot better deep conditioning treatments. As far as softness, shine, manageability and hydration is concerned, this is very mediocre. The little comb that comes with the jar is great! I use it with ALL my deep conditioning treatments, as well as combing my hair when I get out of the shower. In my opinion, though, I would not try this, as there are far better options for less than 50 or 60 dollars.

This is a clarifying shampoo, hence the name "Sunday"... meaning use it once a week. This is too drying and harsh for my chemically treated and dry hair. I have tried a lot more clarifiers and the other still imparted some softness and vitality to my hair, and left a few dollars in my wallet. I think guys would really love this, as they usually like a squeaky clean feeling. Again, the price is too much for a stripping and harsh shampoo.

Candy Apple used to be my go-to blush. Cream powder or otherwise. But now after revisiting it after over a year, I have found that it makes me too red, it doesn't last more than an hour, and the glitter specks are just too much. Too much money for not enough product. Sorry, Paula Dorf, but I am not a fan of this one.

Even though the price tag is very steep, I really love this and the price is well deserved. I have dry skin, and this gives me luminous (not cakey) coverage. I do not prefer the brush it comes with... I like BE's full kabuki brush, but this is not a review on the brush. I love the finely milled powder... not too much at first.. you can always make more. Unlike some other mineral powders, this doesn't make my face itch. Bonus! I am an in-between shade, so I have to touch up some spots, but other than that the texture and longevity of this hydrating miracle is great.

I keep my skin soft and hydrated with this fresh and revitalizing facial mist. I am surprised at how fine and not droplet-y this is. I have dry skin and this doesn't irritate or make my skin oily. I only have the little teeny size, but it is well worth it before makeup, after makeup, and as a refresher any time of day.

Gotta love free samples! This came to me as a deluxe sample in a Sephora order .. and it took all of about two tries for me to plunk down the $16 and get the full size. I *adore* the brush on this ... the formula is smooth and the wand size is perfection! This does deliver "atomic" volume and makes my eyes look super sultry! I love this mascara .. I have finally found something else to give my beloved Voluminous some serious competition! Sephora continues to come up with something I can fall in love with!!

The colors are fun, the wear is long lasting, and this dries pretty quickly. The price is right and this will be a staple in my nail polish collection.

I know it sounds weird, but I have to admit that I am a picker. When my skin has scabs on it, this is the most amazing thing to cover them. It is moisturizing, and somehow blends seamlessly and makes everything look poreless. Truly the most innovative kind of foundation/concealer I have ever come across, and for me this is perfect. I would say for a cheaper version try Maybelline mousse foundations.

I have thick coarse wavy dry damaged hair, and this is mediocre. The smell is nice, you don't need a handful of thick to coat your hair (which is great) and it does an okay job of hydrating my hair. I have definitely used better, but at the same time I have definitely had worse. I will not be purchasing this again because of the price. I have also discovered Kerastase and NOTHING is better than that.
