Conditioner -Garnier - Fortifying Cream Conditioner For Dry Or Damaged Hair

I fell into all the hype for this crap and bought it. The only things I liked about it was that it was cheap and the bottle design was ideal for getting every last bit of product out. However, this conditioner took the life out of my hair. I can't describe how unbelievably crappy my hair felt..this stuff dried it out and took the life out of it. Never,ever again will I buy this.

Scrubs -Urban Decay - Magic Mud

Magical indeed. I received this in a swap and I absolutely love it. It cleans my oily skin and keeps it as smooth as a baby's butt. My only complaint is the packaging. The squeeze tube is horrid because you waste a lot of the product. I haven't tried the tub yet, but believe me, I will. This is a definite repurchase.

This is a beautiful all around color. It goes on nice and sheer and does not crease. It shows up as a pale sagey green on me. I love it!

Misc Beauty Tools -Shiseido - Pureness Oil Blotting Papers

I love these :). They are way better than Clean and Clear. These keep my skin nice and matte without the powdery finish. A whole sheet can blot my whole face. I love the cute little blue pacakge too. I will definitely buy these again.

Primer/ Corrector -Clinique - Sheer Mattness
rated 1 of 5
gingersype 10/18/2002 7:43:00 PM

This is one of the most worthless, do-nothing products that I have seen in awhile. It left my skin taunt after applying it and I was oily within an hour. So much for Sheer Mattness.

Pressed Powders -Clinique - Stay-Matte Sheer Pressed Powder
rated 1 of 5
gingersype 10/18/2002 7:41:00 PM

This powder, for lack of a better word, sucks. It doesn't leave you "matte" and it is hardly "sheer". The colors all have a strange pinky cast to them. The packaging is still that ugly Clinique green. My Mac blot powder is a million times better.

Scrubs -Clinique - 7 Day Scrub Cream
rated 3 of 5

I got this in a GWP. It is way too harsh for my face. The scrub particles feel almost synthetic and sratchy. I use it on my legs before shaving though. I wouldn't repurchase this.

It works great at getting the makeup off, but it leave my eye area pretty greasy. I will not purchase this again.

Lipstick -Clinique - Chubby Stick (all shades)
rated 3 of 5

Although I have this in Nude Ice and I love the color, these do not last long on my lips. They dry my lips out and leave these annoying little flakies in place of the color. I got this in a GWP, but I will never purchase one.

Moisturizers -Chanel - Hydramax Oil-free Moisture Gel
rated 5 of 5
gingersype 10/18/2002 7:25:00 PM

I loved this product. It has a light scent to it that is kinda clean and fresh. It moisturizes my oily skin nicely during the winter. My only complaint is that it is pretty expensive for the amount you get and the packaging makes it hard to use every last drop (which you should do at this price). But I guess the Chanel name is what you are paying for anyways.

Beautiufl pinky-nude color. Love the texture and the lack of smell. The packaging is gorgeous, but for the high price it better be. I swapped for this, but I would never spend the money and go out and buy one.

Treatments -Biore - Pore Cleansing Strips - Nose

These are great if you like to spray hairspray on a piece of plastic and stick it to your face and then rip it off. Terrible, just terrible!

Cleansers -Biore - Non Foaming cleansing gel
rated 1 of 5

Yucky!! What a greasy, smelly mess. It didn't remove any of my makeup at all nor did it leave me feeling clean. There are a million cleansers out there that do a much better job than this one.

Conditioner -Matrix - Biolage Color Care Conditioner
rated 5 of 5
gingersype 10/18/2002 7:15:00 PM

This is my holy grail of conditioners. I always come back to it. It leaves my hair soft, but not too soft and protects my color beautifully. I use it with the Color Care Shampoo. You can get it at most salons in a 2 for $20 deal on the 1 liter sizes. You can't beat that price!!

I love this!!!1 It smells so great and doesn't weight my hair down like others do. I use it every day on my naturally wavy hair. A little goes a very long way and you can't beat the price.
