CoverGirl SmokyShadowBlast

I wanted to like it so much

I wanted to like it, because I wanted to have trendy smokey eyes. I should have known that something was not going to work when I saw the crayon type applicator. First of all, I am African American and the shadows were very chalky in nature making you look like a mime. When trying to apply the smokey element, the crayon broke. The other part was not much better. I looked like a 2 year old had created racoon eyes. I turned to Covergirl because of reputation, but I ran right back to Mac.

Pantene Pro-V Curly Hair Series Anti-Frizz Straightening Creme

Works well on curly hair

I use it on my daughter's very curly hair that tends to frizz with humidity. It helps to straighten out the curl,and provide moisture necessary to combat the frizz. I used to use Friz ease, but this works so much better.

Pantene Pro-V Curly Mousse

Big natural curls

I have very thick, curly hair. I don't like the coiled curl look, preferring the easy curls that tend to drive men wild. This product achieves the look that I want, and make it look like I have not put much effort into trying to look good. It looks so natural, that it is a part of my daily routine.

YOYO Lip Gloss

Yo Yo Lip Gloss

This is so cute, and convenient. My lips are usually dry in the winter, and I have a problem finding my lip gloss in my bag. Voila! This attaches to my blouse or belt hoop. It goes on shiny, and not tacky or sticky. It keeps my lips moist for hours. I have several of them and give them to my friends.

Olay Total Effects Tone Correcting Moisturizer with Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 15

Olay Definity Color Recapture

This is a remarkable product that is a wonderful time saver. No need for applying both a foundation and moisturizer. This one step process solves this problem. The color goes on smooth, and non greasy looking. It incorporates evenly into your skin, providing even coverage. I would suggest that if you are of darker complexion, you choose the darkest shade possible and blend blend blend. There is no need to reapply during the day. It lasts and looks great!

Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer

Little but packs a punch

I love this lip gloss. I love the Raisin color, because it gives your lips that added color and protection that you need,without the heaviness of a gloss or lipstick. I keep two of them in my purse at all times, just to be prepared. It is small, but lasts forever and never disappoints.
