Moisturizers -Unlisted Brand - Extra Virgin Olive Oil
rated 5 of 5
namissaas224 6/11/2008 8:04:00 PM

I love olive oil! I mixed this with some vitamin e oil and my normal conditioner for a hot oil treatment and my hair has never been this soft. I put the mixture on my dry hair and put a towel straight from the dryer on my head and let it sit for about half an hour then I washed and conditioned my hair as usual and my hair feels great. Its super soft and it didn't leave my hair oily like I thought it would. I've also used olive oil mixed with sugar and honey for a body scrub and its amazing. It gets all my dead skin off and moisturizes really well.

Masks -Unlisted Brand - Aspirin Mask

namissaas224 6/10/2008 2:11:00 PM

I LOVE this mask!I use a blender type thing to crush up a lot of them,and then I put it in a container so I can use it again.This mask made my skin much softer and more firm.Even though im only 14 I have a couple of "fine lines" on my face,and they're gone now!It makes my skin much more glowy! I use this mask along with my brown sugar scrub afterwards and my skin is so much better now. Next week Im going to try it again,and I'll update this!

Sunscreen -Hawaiian Tropic - Ozone Sport Sunblock 60
rated 4 of 5
namissaas224 6/10/2008 2:09:00 PM

This is a pretty good sunscreen.When my brother went to camp in April we bought this,it came with a smaller orange bottle so I got the bigger one.Im very paranoid about cancer,it runs in my family,so I use a SPF 50 or higher everyday so I dont get burned.I like that this is thicker and absorbs better.I used to use one that was kind of runny and it made my face horribly shiny. I took of one lippy because when I use it makes me look paler at first,but goes away after awhile.And sometimes i'll still get burnt when wearing it,but sometimes I forget to apply it!

Styling Products -Garnier - Fructis Sleek and Shine Weightless Anti-Frizz Serum
rated 5 of 5
namissaas224 6/9/2008 10:52:00 PM

I have long,very thick,wavy hair with some ringlets and this product works perfectly on it.I used to use John Frieda frizz serum,but my grandmother uses this.She has nearly perfect hair,so I thought I'd try this.I was at her house and forgot to bring some of my hair products.Im a bit afraid of hair products,they usually make my hair greasy.Since my hair is long and thick,also pretty heavy,I thought this would weigh my hair down,but it doesnt.It also makes my hair shinier.

Scrubs -Unlisted Brand - brown sugar scrub
rated 5 of 5
namissaas224 6/9/2008 10:15:00 PM

I've read seventeen religiously for the past couple of years,so when I saw a recipe for this in the magazine I knew I had to try it.I have oily skin,so my pores clog up pretty fast.Everytime I use this scrub my skin always glows after I use it.This scrub is truly amazing.I'd reccomend to make this scrub very thick,otherwise it'll be harder to go on. This scrub also is good for your body,as well as your face.I use a bit of this every morning,it makes your makeup go on much easier. **edit** This also is a good lip exfoliant.Just put a little on your lips and rub them together..Or you could just use your fingers.

Conditioner -Clairol - Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship
rated 5 of 5
namissaas224 6/5/2008 3:52:00 PM

I like this conditioner.I have long,thick,wavy,blonde hair.So sometimes its hard to find a conditioner that really does help my hair stay soft and healthy.My hair had gotten pretty dry from swimming in my pool,and from the sun.I was at walgreen's the other day and I remembered that I was out of conditioner.So I picked up Long Term Relationship.I figured since it was sold out except for one bottle it would work well.I was right!It took about a week for my hair to become smooth,but the last couple of days I conditioned twice.This line has been sold out wherever I go,I went to wal-mart and it wasnt there.Same for Target,but they had one bottle left when I went to walgreen's... I would definetly reccomend this conditioner to anyone with long hair.It totally does everything it says it will do on the bottle. The next time im out I plan to pick up the rest of the line!

Shampoo -Dove - Cool Moisture Shampoo
rated 5 of 5
namissaas224 5/26/2008 9:06:00 PM

First off I should say I have very oily hair,it usually starts to oil up after about a day.I had been using natural lavender shampoo,and it totally wasnt working.So I went to the nearest store and bought this,I've always loved dove so I figured this one would be good.I love the smell.Even a day and a half after I shampooed my hair was still all bouncy and nice-smelling,not oily at all.I have very thick,long hair so I thought this might weigh my hair down like most shampoos do,but this one didnt.I did not buy the conditioner,but Im going to buy some next week! I would reccomend this shampoo to pretty much anyone

Styling Products -Sunsilk - Waves of Envy Sea Mist [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5
namissaas224 5/1/2008 10:30:00 PM

I naturally have very thick wavy hair.I love my waves,but since my hair is so thick it tends to get a bit poofy.The only way I can get nice waves is if I dont brush my hair after I get out of the shower,which I dont like doing but I dont mind if Im going to curl/wave my hair. Anyway,I usually blowdry and straighten my hair every morning.But now I wont have to because I have this spray. I saw the ad in Seventeen magazine and wanted to try it out.I originally went to target for leave in condtioner creme,but they were sold out.So I eventually decided to buy this.Im very glad I did.It makes me waves more shiny,less poofy,and more "wavy" I reccomend this spray to anyone who has waves,its the best!

namissaas224 4/20/2008 10:19:00 AM

I got a sample of this in the mail yesterday and I LOVE it.I usually use dream matte mousse foundation[also maybelline]and this works so much better than dream matte.The sample was in pure beige,and I thought it would be to dark.But it was the perfect shade.It covers up every blemish,I didnt even have to use concealer. I will definetly buy the full size bottle next week along with the blush and powder

namissaas224 3/20/2008 12:40:00 PM

I have a hard time picking out makeup,especially blush. I always end up getting the wrong color for my skin.I went to Target to buy the Dream Matte mousse foundation and saw this and thought I would try it out. I LOVE this blush. Its not to dark,but its still noticable.It makes my cheekbones look higher. I already am using three Dream Matte/Mousse products[powder,foundation,blush] and im definetly going to try the eyeshadow. Maybelline is my new favorite makeup brand/

Mascara -Maybelline - Great Lash Mascara
rated 3 of 5
namissaas224 3/19/2008 10:36:00 PM

I like this mascara alot.I go through mascara,so I have tried alot and this is definetly one of the best ones.I curl my lashes and put one coat one and then curl again once dry and my lashes are AMAZING. They already long,but with this they touch my eyebrows without using a eyelash curler.If you put powder on your eyelashes before it works better and goes on smoothly. **EDIT** I used this mascara a lot more after I wrote this review the first time,and I dont like it anymore.Everytime I use it,it would make my lashes look all clumped together and like a doll's eyelashes.I did like the doll part,but I hated the clumping.I now use Covergirl's Volume Exact and I get the same look,except not clumpy.

Fragrances -Donna Karan - Delicious Night
rated 4 of 5
namissaas224 2/11/2008 4:48:00 PM

I didnt actually buy this product, It was in my latest issue of teen vogue. I like this perfume.I dont love it, but I dont hate it. It smelled like fragranced baby powder when I first put it on. The dry-down is GREAT! Its been about an hour and it smells like Viktor and Rolf's Flowerbomb perfume to me.Flowerbomb is one of my favorites so I like this one too.I might buy this one instead for paying nearly 100 for Flowerbomb

Fragrances -Victoria's Secret - supermodel
rated 5 of 5
namissaas224 2/2/2008 5:10:00 PM

This is now my HG perfume.I have the HARDEST time picking out perfumes. It literally will take me a week to decide. I bought this around christmas time last year and I didnt like it that much at first. I ran out of my then HG perfume Juicy Couture so I picked up Supermodel and sprayed it on my wrists then sprayed it in front of me and walked into it. It lasts about 5 hours on me. It smells like vanilla and flowers.I love anything with vanilla in it, so this one is my favorite.I know vanilla isnt one of the notes, but thats what it smells like to me. I have about a half a bottle left and most of the lotion left.I like the lotion too,when you layer it with the perfume it lasts about 6 hours. I LOVE this perfume.When I run out of it I will buy again

namissaas224 2/1/2008 9:47:00 PM

My hair: Oily at roots dry on the ends Long Extremly Thick Wavy I usually use Sunsilk Hydra TLC and it was okay, but I like this better.Even after conditioning[I left it in for 5 minutes until I rinsed] my hair ended up stiff after I took it out of my towel.With this my hair was so soft afterwards.I usually will put it up until I blowdry it, but this Im leaving it down. I love this shampoo and conditioner and will continue to buy it.

Misc Beauty Tools -Clean & Clear - Oil Absorbing Sheets
rated 5 of 5
namissaas224 2/1/2008 6:55:00 PM

I have oily/acne prone skin, so my face gets oily fast. I will wash my face in the morning and it be oily by noon.I was at walgreens buying some magazines when I saw this product.I love this product.It does smudge your makeup if you rub instead of blotting. I always reapply some powder afterwards to it anyway.I use about two of them a day.If I am to lazy to wash my face I will use one or two of these[depending on how oily my skin is] and use astringent and Im okay.
