I had already been using got 2b's dry shampoo and conditioner for quite sometime and needed a new leave in conditioner. I decided to try this since their dry shampoo and conditioner work so well with my thick wavy hair (I always have to use more of every product because of how thick my hair platinum blonde hair is). Because my hair is so thick I do have to apply more then the recommended amount, but it's well worth it because this leave in conditioner makes my hair feel so soft after it has dried. And I love the smell because not all leave in conditioners smell as fantastic as this one. Since falling in love with this leave in conditioner I have started purchasing other got 2b products for my hair. I have platinum blonde hair and like to keep my hair feeling and looking healthy from lightening it so much and keep up with the platinum blonde. This is a great and inexpensive leave in conditioner. And once again I purchased it at Walmart where I buy most of my haircare products. For anyone who either has thick hair you will have to apply more product to your hair then is recommended on the bottle but once you feel your hair after it has dried you realize that it is worth putting a bit more leave in conditioner in your hair. The same applies to anyone with hair that has been processed to a very light blonde color. Because I have thick and platinum color treated hair I have to use more leave in conditioner then what is suggested on the bottle. If my hair was a darker color I wouldn't need to put that extra bit of conditioner in it. But my hair (because it has been processed to be so light blonde) sucks up all the leave in conditioners I've ever put in it. Again it is well worth it because it leaves my hair feeling so soft and has a natural healthy shine to it. This is my favorite cream leave in conditioner. I sometimes add a little of my spray leave in conditioners but they are different brands. It's not always necessary for me to add both. It just depends on what type of styling products I was using in my hair before I washed it. Out of all of the cream or foam leave in conditioners I have this is by far my most favorite and works so well with my hair type. I would definitely recommend this conditioner to anyone with hair like mine. It's absolutely amazing!!!

I was hesitant to dry this spray gel because I don't like the feeling of gel in my hair. To me it feels gross and I'm always afraid to let anyone touch my hair. I've always liked Herbal Essences shampoos & conditioners but had never tried any of their styling products until this one. I am extremely happy with this one and the way it leaves my hair feeling. It doesn't feel like I have gel in my hair or a bunch of other product in my hair. It gives my hair the hold it needs without letting it look for feel like I've used a gel product. I've noticed it works much better if I apply it to my hair after it has just been washed. But I am still very impressed by how well it works when my hair is dry. And it doesn't smell horrible like a lot of hair styling products do. This is a wonderful product if I don't need mega hold, but still provides enough hold to keep curls in place and get rid of fly aways. It is by far the best gel based product I have ever used! I have tested it out with other products in my hair as well and if you have too many products in your hair it will start to feel very stiff and look unnatural. It really does work very well to keep your hair looking fantastic throughout the day.

When I'm out and about I always take my travel size sexy hair products with me, but when i'm at home I use Aussie's Mega Hair Spray. It is one of the best hairsprays I have ever used and I've always been a huge fan of their products. This hairspray holds any hairstyle I feel like rockin' that day or if I change it up in the evening. And it's easy to wash out as well. I always buy the biggest can of this I can find when i'm out and about. I have very thick hair that is between curly and wavy. So when I want to change up my hair style and straighten my hair but flip out the ends with my flat iron this hairspray does an amazing job at keeping my hair looking like I just did it every time. Even if I want to use my large barrel curling iron and create big curls or a really deep wave look once again this hairspray keeps my hair looking amazing all day long. Great for preventing fly aways. And if I have straightened my hair during the day with a little flip out at the ends and use this hair spray to keep it in place I can use my dry shampoo and conditioner and it completely removes all residue from the hairspray. And later in the evening if I want to add some curls to my hair it's easy to do because my hair is clean from using my dry shampoo and conditioner. This hairspray literally holds any style no matter how simple or wild. I used to have a mohawk and I used this hairspray to keep my mohawk up and it worked so great. I've never had any other brand of hairspray work as well as Aussie's Mega Hair Spray. This is definitely one of the best hairsprays out there and the best price I have found is at Walmart. I seem to find all of the best deals for my haircare products at Walmart or sometimes if it's a more expensive brand I find it on eBay. So if you'd like an amazing hairspray that will literally hold any hairstyle in place, you should definitely try Aussie's Mega Hair Spray!

I have naturally oily skin so I thought these would be great for my skin and keeping my makeup looking wonderful all day long and keep my face matte instead of oily. These come in a pack of 50 so I also thought they would last me a while, but because of my naturally oily skin I ended up using between 2-4 sheets each time. And these are not cheap so I was pretty disappointed when I realized how often I would have to buy another pack of these. They did keep my makeup looking like I had just put it on but again because I had to use more then 1 sheet to remove the oils from my face these became too expensive for me to continue buying. I found the same type of sheets by one of my favorite cosmetic companies that are only $1 per 50 pack and do so much more for your skin then just remove the oil. When comparing the size of the Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets to the ones I now use, Clean & Clear's are much smaller and feel like plastic. The new ones I use are about double the size and feel amazing on my skin. They remove the excess oil from my face for hours while keeping my makeup looking great and also contain Green Tea Extract which helps re-texturize my skin and masks imperfections! I would suggest trying ELF's Shine Eraser sheets if you are unhappy with Clean & Clear's Oil Absorbing Sheets. You can find them at Target for $1 which makes it very convenient and for the price of 1 pack of the Clean & Clear you can buy several of ELF's Shine Eraser sheets which come in a 50 pack.

I have never been a fan of liquid foundations and have always used mineral foundations and concealers (sometimes I would have a concealer stick if needed). I recently have been using/reviewing BB creams and HD concealers and love them. I love Maybelline's Dream Fresh BB Cream so I decided to give their Dream Nude Airfoam a try. I have been using Revlon's Photoready Airbrush Mousse Foundation and am in love it with because it is so lightweight and you cannot tell you are wearing it. After my first time using Maybelline's Dream Nude Airfoam I was in love! It's weightless and gives me the coverage I want/need. And because I am able to layer on as little or as much as I want I can achieve the perfect look every time! And I do not buy anything I put on my face that doesn't have an SPF of at least 15. Almost all of my concealers, foundations, and primers have an SPF of at least 20-30. This is a great product and I have had no problems with it and my sensitive skin. I have to be very careful about the products I wear because of my extremely sensitive skin. I love this foundation about I apply it with a beauty blender dupe. Once my concealers and foundation have been applied and blended in I have a flawless airbrushed look to my face. My skin tone is even and it takes me less time to apply and blend in then when I was using a foundation brush.

Covergirl makes some of my favorite products and Olay makes some of the best skincare products. So when I found out they teamed up to make this amazing foundation w/CC cream. I use a dupe beauty blender to apply all my concealers and foundations. The very first time I applied this foundation I used a foundation brush so I could provide an accurate comparison review on my YouTube Channel. The consistency of this foundation is perfect for my dupe beauty blender, and after I was done applying and blending out my foundation I was left with a beautifully flawless (and even) look to my skin. I normally do not wear liquid foundations, I like to stick with mineral foundations but I am in love with this one. There are so many benefits with this foundation(including long term). The only thing it is missing is an SPF, but my face primer has an SPF and quite a few of my other products including my finishing/setting powders. I would definitely suggest applying this with a beauty blender or a good dupe beauty blender. They make a huge difference in applying your makeup, blending, and of course the finished look which is more of a flawless airbrushed look. I can't say enough positive things about this product. I can say this is going to become a regular for me and I will be buying more of it very soon.

I'm a big fan of Suave Professionals products. I normally buy their dry shampoo which is infused with Keratin and great for color treated hair like mine. I was heading out of town and needed some dry shampoo(I had run out completely) and they had this one at Walmart for only $2.88. Unfortunately they were completely sold out of my usual dry shampoo so I decided to give this a try. I did not like it as much as much as the Keratin infused one, but again it did work in a pinch. Since using it the first time I always keep one on hand just case I don't have time to run out and buy more of my favorite. I noticed with this particular suave dry shampoo my hair does not feel as soft after I've used it. Anytime I have hairspray in my hair I have to use double or sometimes triple the amount. This makes it quite inconvenient so I try not to use this one unless I absolutely have to.

I always use their Extreme Platinum (lifts 7 levels) and it works great. I especially like that the color comes with a purple conditioner to help prevent any brassy-tones from coming through. I also keep a bottle of shimmer lights on hand and use it first and then the purple conditioner from my Feria Extreme Platinum. I love their black hair dye as well. I have been a big fan of theirs for quite sometime. And the aromatic shimmer serum that they include with their dye smells AMAZING!! What a great addition to hair dye. Almost all hair dyes smell awful and the smell can be so overwhelming you don't want to have your hair dyed. But again, I love the addition that Feria made to their dye by including the aromatic shimmer serum. I noticed it also leaves my hair feeling very soft and looking absolutely amazing! I couldn't be happier with their product.

I have been dying my hair platinum blonde for almost a year. I had black streaks added to the blonde and when it was rinsed out my hair turned grey(I naturally have dark blonde/light brown hair). I was so upset and embarrassed I was wearing a hat all of the time. After reading a ton of reviews and talking to a bunch of people about how well this would work or if it would work at all! I sectioned out the black pieces and after 20 minutes my hair was back to blonde and I couldn't have been happier. I had no idea it was going to work so well and would recommend this to anyone out there who has had a coloring mistake happen. I bought a box of the Color Oops at Walgreens for $14.99 and it was worth every penny. Way cheaper then going to a salon and having it fixed and took way less time. This kit is wonderful because it literally comes with everything you need including gloves and a clear cap for your hair. I've had friends with the same color hair as mine and instead of using Color Oops they just added more bleach and gave themselves a chemical haircut. I like to keep my hair as healthy as possible even though it has been lightened.

I've tried several different brands of acne face wash (including prescription strength) and none is them have ever worked half as well as Arbonne's Clear Advantage Set that I was given to review. I have mild acne that gets worse when I am stressed out or my hormone levels are through the roof. And because of my super sensitive skin it makes it even harder for me to find an acne skincare set that works for my skin. After testing out the Clear Advantage set for a month I noticed a drastic difference in my skin. Not only did it look better it felt softer and not oily like it used to. It's a great product to invest in and I would recommend it to everyone!
