Im not a huge fan of Herbal Essences all the time...I feel that their shampoos lather up too much, dont leave your hair feeling healthy and produce build up. But the I met this one in a travel package that I bought...i won't say that it become by favorite shampoo and I won't say that I didn't use a conditioner afterwards, but in just using this as a shampoo it did pretty well. My hair was shinier and softer. So I dont recommend this as your go to shampoo at all times, but if you are travelling and want to buy a little pack or if you want something that you can use every now and then...go for this one. And also, as with all herbal essences shampoos, it smells AMAZZZZZZING...this is the best one that they have put out yet.

First, I want to specify that this is the Dior Capture Totale Intensive Night Restorative Crème (official name) and not the discontinued night cream. With that being said, with a very hefty price tag this cream should be perfect. I have used other creams with such heavy price tags and they have disappointed me (ahem, La Mer). I will say that it is luxurious in feeling and so lightly scented that it feels like heaven. I can't say that it does what it claims...what anti aging cream can definitely be proven as true? But I will say that it's ultra rich (but not pore clogging) and as far as a night cream goes, it does give you an instant glow and even if you wake up hours later your skin will feel moisturized. I took two stars off for the price tag and all the rest go to what a great feeling this creates. I say to splurge and get this cream, use it sparingly (a very small amount goes a long way anyway and it glides so nicely over the skin) but maybe alternate with a cheaper night cream (Olay or American Beauty Overnight Radiance Boost). Recommended if you can afford the splurge.

When I first saw this product, I though this would be an instant winner - pink plus vaseline? awesome. I opened it, it smelled good (YES!), the package was cute and easy to handle (YES!), I put my finger in and put some on (errrr....yes?...maybe??)....there was no color on my lips and though it left my lips soft, this was regular vaseline to me. I was disappointed. I left it alone for a while ...gave it one star in my head and almost swore it off. Then, it was the only lip moisturizer in my bag one day and I had to start using again...it's ok, it's average now...I am on the fence about buying again but I don't hate it as much, I'm just not sure I'd recommend. There are better products out there despite it's cuteness. Probably not recommended....but not a buy that I really regret either.

I have such a hard time finding face cleansers and as soon as I fell in love with this one, they discontinued it. I never write reviews about discontinued products, but this one is in high hopes that they bring it back. I spoke to someone at Estee Lauder and they have a replacement, but it's not a good replacement at all. The smell of this is so addicting and I love it. Besides that, it feels so good on the skin, leaves you really feeling clean and doesn't dry my face out at all. I hope they bring this back one day because it is by far my #1 all time favorite face cleanser. If they do, run and buy it it bulk...I know I will!

L'Oreal Paris HiP Studio Secrets Professional Matte Shadow Duo
Highly Pigmented, Absolutely Gorgeous
Each of these colors is absolutely gorgeous and highly pigmented. The duos really compliment each other. Very easy to apply on the go and carry in your bag. In love with these. Can't rave enough about them in any combination. Looks great on anyone!

I was really excited about this palette, especially because some of the colors were directly compared to those in the UD Naked palette so I ran out to buy it. After two weeks of owning this item, I'm going to return it because the warm colors aren't even warm enough for me. I have brown caramel skin with yellowish undertones and these shadows are too light and make my eyes look tired of ashy. I still love the UD shadow...even the light ones work for me, but these aren't working out at all for me and are not easy to use. I was going to keep them as a base, but I think I'll just return them and get a more satisfying palette. I can't definitely see how these would be gorgeous on medium to fair skin tones. Not recommended for brown skin.

I'm totally in love with the OPI version of the crackle nail polish and think it's very easy to use and looks fantastic. Goes on very smooth and looks professionally done every time. Don't try to go too thick with it and wait for it to "crackle" before trying another coat (one was just fine for me). It's a bit much for all nails but one accent nail is great with it. I love the silver the best.

I have been using this particular razor for well over a year or maybe even two and I love it a lot. The shave is very close, yet it's really hard to cut yourself with it. The razor lasts quite a while as long as you don't leave it on the side of the tub (seems to rust quite easily and the moisturizing bar can melt and get sticky, gross). My boyfriend is bald and has used this if he can't find his own razor, which makes the whole interchangeable head really helpful. He thinks it's a pretty decent razor (and he's much more picky than I am). Overall, it's teh best razor that I've tried so far so I've stuck with it.

As a loyal Olay fan, I was disappointed to see that they fell short on their body wash platform. The body wash is creamy but for me it didn't lather nearly enough and didn't leave my skin feeling any more invigorated or moisturized than my normal bar of soap or my cheaper body washes. There wasn't much excitement to this product. I'll stick to the face creams and other skin care items until I feel that Olay steps up their game in this section. Even the scent was almost non existent. Body wash fail for a great brand. Not recommended.

I remember when I first put these in and I was blown away at how comfortable they were AND the fact that despite using hair products, being around smoke and staring at computer screens (all horrible! I know...) they never dried out! Though the years I guess I've gotten used to them so now they are an 8. They are also a little sensitive to eyeliner and will suck them off of the waterline and never get clean (same goes for facial oils that wash your face...get in your eye and cloudy) so they are hard to clean. Overall, best contact yet. They fit the eye well and never fall out!
