John Frieda Sheer Blonde Highlight Activating Daily Shampoo with Light Enhancers

Clean Sheen

A good, moderate-priced shampoo that gives you back that salon pizazz. Buying it by your hair shade helps make you feel "exclusive".

Crabtree & Evelyn Conditioning Hand Wash

Rose Garden in a wash...

I love this product! It has the most beautiful rose fragrance---not too cloying, not too sweet; and none of the artificial chemical-smell that is a part of some rose fragrances. It's especially wonderful when layered with the other rose products from Crabtree and Evelyn.

L'Oreal Paris Age Perfect Double Action

Feels good, but does it work?

Having tried many moderately priced beauty treatments, I have bought this more than once. It feels good when applied (not too greasy and absorbs quickly) and doesn't tighten up after several minutes have elapsed. I haven't actually seen any wrinkle reduction benefits, however, and would hesitate to make that claim.
