I love this item. Well, I loved it when dry shampoos first became popular. What I dont love? That it's a powder that you are pouring in your hair and there's definitely build up afterwards. I admit, this item does a great job at sopping up the oil...but you really have to use quite a bit and then rub it out a lot (I have black shiny hair). I say go with the the Oscar Blandi Invisible Spray - much better option or maybe go with another spray. The powders are sort of outdated and take so much more effort to get out of your hair.

If you like the suuuuuuuuuuuuuper thick lash look and don't want to wear false eyelashes then this is the mascara for you. I already have somewhat gorgeous eyelashes...but this mascara makes them exceptional. I'm a mascara addict - always trying the new ones and this is the only one that gets a perfect 10. Couldn't ask for better. Though they make clump sometimes, it's nothing serious.

What a great eyeshadow! The color goes on just as you see it in the container and stays there for hours!! If you like bright colors with a lot of pigment and not a washed out eye shadow then this is for you. Think about MAC eye shadows, but maybe even better for a fraction of the price. great item...just wish they came out with a big rainbow palette!

I have long hair...and I have a lot of it, but very fine strands. This conditioner was WAY too heavy for my hair...to the point where I could hardly wash it out of my hair. I dont think I put too much in, but I had to wash my hair a few times to get it out and when I got out of the shower, I still felt like my hair wasn't exactly clean. Made my hair feel like it was coated in oil. Maybe for thicker hair this is a great product. Also - I didn't see any real results after using (except that i was careful to comb my hair because i didn't want it to fall out). I wouldn't recommend this item unless you have thicker hair, then maybe it would be good.

The first time I used this shampoo, I was ready to return it right away...it dried my hair out so much in the shower and made it so rough that even the water couldn't help. then i put my conditioner on and my hair went back to normal...and when I got out, yes! my scalp was actually clean and stayed that way for days! I decided to use this shampoo a few more times to test it...and yes, it kept scaring me in the shower but overall nothing bad happened to my hair and i think it was a little drier, but nothing that conditioner didn't fix. Would I recommend it ? yes - if you have flakes because it works a lot better than leading brands (aka H&S). If your flakes aren't really noticeable, then maybe you dont need it but if they are then use it because it keeps flakes away for days in between washes. I've definitely switched over from H&S for good. (Dont be scared at first).

This conditioner definitely takes care of frizzy hair and adds shine and manageability. I wouldn't use it all the time but I would use it every now and again...it's little heavy for my hair (I have a lot of hair, but the actual strands are a little fine and get weighed down). Definitely worth the try...because when it works, it works.

This is a good shampoo to have on hand if you are going out that night and want to see great, shiny results....and it smells great, too. something sort of tropical. the only problem that i really have with this shampoo is that it initially does a great job but over time I think it creates build up and the results don't last very long. Like your hair will look good right after you wash with it...but not a day or two later. So I'm not sure how this shampoo works. I stopped using it as my regular but every now and then I use a little of the leftover and my hair feels great.

I got turned onto oil cleansers after testing DHC's cleansing oil...but was looking for something with more of a clean feeling and less of a "straight olive oil" feel (natural?)...well this was perfect! The oil smells amazing and the citrus scent really does "energize you" ..great after work pick up beteween work and play :) Besides that...the clean feeling and the efficiency of gentle make up removal (even loads of mascara and waterproof eyeliner) is amazing. yes, it does smear the make up around your face when you are rubbing it off...but after a quick rinse, your skin is left beautiful and clean. I feel like this product also brightened my skin....but maybe that's because i might not have been getting all of my eye makeup off before. This is gentle even if it goes in your eyes (though watch out contact wearers). The only con I have is that I dont know that I love the milky white substance that forms when it touches water and you have to be careful when pouring from bottle because you dont want to get water in bottle. Though the bottle is very cute, it's not very convenient that it doesn't have a pump...if it did water couldn't get in. (also, pouring kind of wastes it).

I will only give this item 2 stars because it smells good and it does feel good when lathering up....but that's about it. This item does not have a nice effect on hair, and drugstore brands usually work very well for me. I've been a fan of herbal essences shampoos in the past (hello hydration! is great)...but this was a flop! I have very long hair and it totally dried my hair out and made it look parched after the first use. I used it a few more times in order to give it a test run...but it failed miserably every time. It's not even the type of shampoo that you can use when you run out of another shampoo because it had such a dmaging effect on the hair. I'd say dont buy this at all...there are many other shampoos that may not work, but at least they won't hurt your hair! (PS - it does keep your hair feeling clean right out of the shower, but no one wants their hair to squeak and it doesn't even make your hair more manageable).

I am constantly looking for the perfect shampoo and though I will start by saying that drug store shampoos and conditioners usually seem to work better on my hair rather than the expensive salon brands (though I continue to try them all)! Pros -smells great, like apples -got rid of dry scalp/flakes -left my hair shinier than usual -left my hair very soft Cons -After 2 weeks of using, I can say that my hair did have a little build up as the shampoo and conditioner are kind of light and dont give that squeaky clean feeling (but your hair isn't supposed to really squeak). So I definitely had to have another shampoo on hand to use every 2-3 weeks in between this one. I also like to use a deep conditioner every now and then as a personal preference. Conclusion: I love this product as an every day or every other day item and would definitely buy it again. However, 2 stars off because I need another shampoo/conditioner every now and then to really "clean" my hair in betwee.
