This is one of the best deals out there for leave in conditioners. I have tried the pricey equivalents and still find that my hair feels like straw. Yes, I condition my hair in the shower but still like to add a little more after my shower. I really torture my hair and feel like this is one of the best leave-in conditioners out there. There are times when this is the only part of my arsenal that I use before I blow dry my hair. Garnier's Leave-In Conditioner and TreSemme's Heat Tamer Spray are perfect when drying and using a flat iron to straighten my hair. Using these products in conjunction, helps my hair from frizzing, having fly aways, and keeps it sleek. I sometimes use this when I don't have time to do a deep conditioner.

I was in a pinch and decided to open the package. I figured it would be something that I wouldn't have to work to hard to make my lashes look like they do with L'Oreal's Lash Tubes. Wrong! Total fail. I have to hand it to Rimmel for trying to create a two in one product. Unfortunately, I really don't like this product and it didn't do much for my limp lashes. ;(

I love this little tin of miracles. I used this on my hands when they became chapped during the winter months. I also have to say that I used this on my cuticles and to seal any little cuts and such. I do have some hard times trying to open this little tin when it shuts tight. When I am able to get the tin open, it makes me happy. It has this lovely lemon scent and though it may feel greasy, it really makes my cuticles feel so much better. I don't have to worry about hangnails with this. A little, and I mean a little, goes a long way. It really does work miracles and I recommend that you try it. It does the same job as Deborah Lippmann, just a little bit greasy and for a third of the price! If you really want to see some improvement, use gloves and you will see your hands are doing so much better within a few days.

I initally liked this moisturizer. I really liked how my skin felt moisturized after I used this. After a few uses, however, I no longer had the same feeling. I was noticing my skin didn't feel as moisturized as it once had. I think this was a sign that my skin needed something a little stronger than this.

These wipes do the job. The wipes are able to take off makeup, and even waterproof mascara. The only thing that I don't like is that it feels a bit rough on my skin. I do like that it can take off even the most stubborn eye liner in my arsenal. Although not everything comes off, the first time around, the second side swipe takes everything off. I do have to say that this works as well as the other wipes out there. these are really good to use when you are running short on time or are heading out after the gym. The wipes make your face feel refreshed, especially after a long and sweaty workout. Stash these in your bag, in your bathroom and your carry-on when traveling. Oh, speaking of traveling, these make an excellent refresher if you are on an overnight flight. No need to use the lavatory water to wash your face!

This eye shadow is very pigmented. I normally use it for work. If you are going to use this, make sure that you dust off the excess. It can apply heavy if you don't dust off the excess. You also don't need too much on the brush since it is heavily pigmented. As for what one of the reviewers says about flakes, this doesn't happen if you tap off the excess. Truly one of the better eye shadows. If you do want something is a friendlier on your wallet, try the NYX. It can give you the same pigmentation for a lot less.

Oh I really love this eyelash curler! I have tried so many other eyelash curlers and I never quite get the same curl. I will say that I have tried the Sonia Kashuk and Sally Hansen curlers and I have never been able to get the same amount of curl. I do have to say that the curl stays even after mascara is applied. The mascara does help keep the curl longer. If you can, heat your eyelash curler with a blow dryer and you can get the curl to stay up to two times longer. (Please be very careful with this. You will need to make sure that the curler is cool enough before you place it near your eye. In order to test if the curler is cool enough, test it on the back of your hand.) Tricks like this can help your lashes stand out!

This shampoo is one of the best smelling out there. It has a light citrus smell and nice suds-ing factor. (Yes, I know suds kill the hair, but it makes my hair feel clean.) I added a little bit of baking soda to the bottle to give it an extra boost. My hair feels phenomenal after I use this with, of course, a deep conditioner afterwards. If you can, I recommend using this daily to help give your hair some extra bounce. Of course the only downside to this is that it doesn’t really help with the shine. I’ve found my hair is lacking that luster that it once had. If you are looking for a shampoo that is going to give you luster, this is not it. Keep looking there has to be one out there. If this is it, add a deep conditioner such as Pantene’s weekly conditioner. The combination will leave even the frizziest hair calm, if only for a few hours.

I find that usually I'm a sucker for Nars products. This is one of those products that I probably should have steered clear. It seems that every time I put on this product, I find myself looking for the shimmer in the mirror. It really is for those with light skin, as it illuminates better and the color can be seen. My skin tone falls into the light-medium range and I still find the O... Illuminator not showing on my skin. Oh well! However, if you are one of the lucky ones that can use this product, I would suggest applying this with a foundation brush so you don’t get all the shimmer on your hands. If you want to highlight something like your cheekbones, lightly dab this from the apples of the cheeks all the way up your cheekbones.

I used to love this liner. I think the felt tip has changed. I used this and found that after about two weeks, it was dry and the only spot that was viable was the portion at the top of the tip. My suggestion would be to keep this upside down it that might not even help. The tip did fray but I was still able to create a fine line. Now for the lines it creates. This can create the thinnest line possible if you keep the tip at the base of the eyelashes. It does a wonderful winged eye. If you hold the "marker" on a slant and start by the inner corner of the eye and drag the "marker" to the end of the eye. Then I take the tip and lay it on the middle of the eye and drag it across the eye and flick it up. It has phenomenal stay. It says that it is semi-permanent but really it means that it stays like a permanent tattooed liner. The liner comes off with ease too. I normally use Korres Jasmine eye makeup remover or Bliss Lid
