Maybelline New York Volum' Express The Colossal Washable Mascara
Was sorely disappointed in this one
I'll give them props for incorporating collagen into the formula for "plumping" action, but after only using this one time, I threw it away. It clumped my lases so badly that I might as well have used black glue! I like Maybelline makeup in general, but in my opinion this product was a complete miss and waste of money.

I used this in my salon, among a few other lines, but found this to be a really great conditioning treatment. When left on the hair for about 15-20 minutes with a plastic cap, you can hit the cap with a blow dryer in order to heat up the hair strand, which opens the cuticle and allows the conditioner to be more readily absorbed, rinse in tepid water, you will notice that your hair is MUCH shinier, full of life, and well conditioned.

I have been using this product for MONTHS, and love it! I use this for daytime during the winter as well! I LOVE how hydrating it feels, and my skin drinks it right up. When I use it for daytime, The only problem with using this for daytime is that since it's made for night time, there is no spf in it. I would LOVE to see Olay re-vamp this product in a daytime formula...my life would then be complete. ;) This night cream is truly heaven in a jar.

By enlarge I love Olay products, but in my experience, this one was a let down. I have incredibly dry feet, especially around the heels, and I moisturize them daily! I got a professional pedicure, and decided I needed some "defense" at home. This product truly did nothing for me. It felt nice, and I liked the warming action, but I saw absolutely no improvement. I really wanted this one to work for me.

I've been using this from the time it hit the shelves, and will continue to do so for as long as it's available! I'm nearing the age of 40 and have ALWAYS tried to take care of my skin, but gravity and age still wage a war on our skin. When I began using this "miracle" in a bottle, my skin was looking tired and my fine lines felt as though they were waving at me in the mirror. After using this for a few weeks, I noticed that my skin was not only softer, but also looked MUCH brighter, and my fine lines had dramatically lessened. This might actually be my "if you were stranded on an island" product. I refuse to live without this now!

I know that we need to try to shy away from "glittery" products as we age, but in my opinion any one can use this....it just depends on where and how you use it! I like to dab a tiny amount near the top of my cheek bones during the day for a dewy/shimmer effect. As long as I use it sparingly, I get a dewy, healthy look, rather than looking like a disco ball with craters. I also like to dust a small amount on my shoulders if I'm wearing clothing that allows them to show. I also put this in cheap clear nail polish and have a pretty, glittery top coat! VERY nice, especially for the price!

I bought the salmon colored one, mostly to help reduce the darkness under my eyes, but frankly am not all that impressed. The color adjustment was minimal at best, and the formulation is not NEAR as nice as their original photo finish primer. I had to go ahead and use concealer, which I was hoping to be able to get away from, and the concealer seemed to gunk up on top of it. I haven't tried the other two color correcting primers, but after feeling let down by this one, probably won't be purchasing.

I used to have a client with severe eczema of the scalp. She pretty much left her hair and scalp alone and came to me for help. I shampooed with a conditioning biolage shampoo Before using the Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Oil on her. It really helped to clear up her scalp condition. Wonderful product!

I hated the metal roller "pins" that always come with hot rollers. Even though I'm a cosmetologist, I found that there was no way to make them hold the rollers in place. These little plastic wonders have been wonderful! They actually hold the rollers in place fairly well! Will NEVER use the old fashioned roller pins again!

I have two different sets of hot rollers from conair, this being one of them, and I really like them. I do notice my hair being more shiny when I use these. The velvety coating helps create a more gentle curling environment, they heat up and maintain heat well, but the roller "pins" of this type leave a LOT to be desired when it comes to keeping the rollers in my hair. My solution to this is to use roller clamps instead, which works out beautifully.
