Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes

These are great

I love these for last minute makeup removal at night. But I must emphasize that they are good for removing foundation, blush, ect. on the face not so good at removing eye makeup. These are not very gentle on the eyes and can cause some irritation. Also they seem to leave behind a slight film on the face some what oily. But for their price they are great. I do recommend using these to remover makeup, then using an eye makeup remover along with washing your face.

Aveeno Pure Renewal 2-in-1 Shampoo & Conditioner

Hmm 2 in 1

This product has a very fresh scent which is lovely. But as all 2 in 1's it has no real benefit. They only work well for those with normal, healthy hair. But if you have oily hair, you don’t need the added conditioning and if you have dry hair, the moisturizing agents in these 2-in-1 products are not enough. You need to use a separate, creamy (rather than clear) conditioner. To top this off look at the labels of your normal shampoo if you find the ingredient that says Dimethicone then your regular shampoo is also a 2 in 1 in disguise. Dimethicone is added to regular shampoo to add conditioning that helps prevent the hair from being so clean that it feels dry. If you want a clarifying or normal shampoo then DO NOT use one that contains Dimethicone. Despite what it says on the label if a shampoo contains Dimethicone it is a conditioning shampoo.
