This has become my savior!!! I have a mix of wavy and curly hair. (Curly at my bangs and wavy the longer the strands get.) Oh does this do the job of a paddle brush and a blow dryer. I never thought that I would be one of those people that would say that I would like an all in one heating appliance. I have jumped ship from my very reliable and expensive flat iron. Although this is not infused with tourmaline like my other appliances, this still does a magnificent job. I find that I can curl the bottom portion of my hair with just a slight twist of the wrist. This also has an ion button for those of us who cringe at the sight and even the "f" word, FRIZZ. I tend to use the bigger brush to straighten the curls. I did use the nozzle for a little while but that was when I couldn't find the brush and it was acting a regular blow dryer. If you like to make waves, use the thinner brush. Trying to get the curl out, use the bigger brush. I highly recommend this as it works really well and just like a regular blow dryer. It takes the place of two appliance. If you would still like straighter hair, you might want to use a flat iron also. Try this if you blow dry your hair regularly!

Ok so I have to admit, I did not think this was going to work. I had tried the Barielle version and honestly this wins hands down. I tried this because it was on sale at Ulta. Unfortunately, I am left with a broken heart. Ulta has decided to stop selling Borghese products. When I found this out, I scoured 5, I repeat 5 Ultas to try and find more. It works just as well as Poshé Super-Fast Drying Topcoat. *Sigh!* When I find a polish that works like this AND Poshé, I'll update this post!!

I have this in two gorgeous colors. The first is Scandal and the second is Greek Holiday. Scandal is a fire engine red. I was totally scared the first time I used Scandal because I had never worn red lipstick/lip gloss ever! It didn't make me look overly done but the color that came through was still beautiful. Greek Holiday is one that I love to put on top of MAC's SlimShine in Bare. Bare gives me an icy nude color lip but with Greek Holiday, because of the gold flecks, I don't look like a complete ice queen. I did want to point out that my glosses did feel tacky and that is why I gave this product a 7 instead of a 9. Also the packaging is bulky when you are trying to fit it into a smaller bag, wallet, or clutch. A tad expensive, but look for events that have a free gift.

Although I normally like Nars products, this foundation made me look oily. Yes, I know it has the word glow in it. However, it should not have made me look like I was prepping to sit out in the sun. I really thought that this would look nice since I tried it at the store and it applied beautifully. I was really disappointed that this was completely different. Since returning the Glow Foundation, I have upgraded to the Matte Foundation. The matte version looks so much better on skin that is oily or combination.

This little vial is very useful. I like to use hair oils and after rinse them with shampoo mixed with a tiny bit of baking soda. This ensures that my hair has a nice amount of body to it. This oil leaves my hair feeling silky and makes me feel a lot better when I use my heating tools, like I'm not killing my hair. Also the only downside to this product is that you have to heat it up for it to work.

I know that as a heat styling lover, I put my hair through the ringer. This helps keep some moisture in the hair shaft. I agree that this bottle is small and could be made in a bigger size. Although the bottle is small, the treatment is still way better than Joico's k-pak treatment. It smells way better and I can tolerate the scent. This is good if you are looking for a quick fix.

I really don't like to give negative reviews but at this price ($12 ), I shouldn't have a mascara that is leaving me with clumpy lashes. This is one of the worst mascaras I have ever tried/used. Although it does tint my lashes, it doesn't do much for them. It leaves them clumped and then I have to get another wand to separate the lashes. I can buy more cost effective mascaras that do a much better job than this. Save your money and buy something else.

I usually find that exfoliates make my face feel super tight. This, however, makes my face feel a lot smoother and when it use it in conjunction with the clairsonic, my face doesn't have the flakes. It's been a smoothing and soothing product. Even the thought of having the pineapple acids in this can make some people cringe, but there is just the right amount that makes it feel luxe. I would highly recommend this especially if you have sensitive skin.

Maybe I have a bad bottle, but I found the formula on the light side as in runny. The scent makes me gag. Although it does help my hair, I would not reconsider purchasing this product.

I found this at Ulta awhile back. This is a lightweight lotion but it does some heavy duty work. It does have alight scent of orange and an orange tinge to it. The directions do say how this is because of the oils that are in it. I would highly recommend this to someone who doesn't like the greasy feeling of other lotions. The nine stars are because although I love the lotion, it is a bit expensive.
