Lotions/ Creams -Olay - Quench Body Lotion Extra Dry Skin
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 1/29/2011 8:45:00 PM
I got this product in a holiday set. I would not buy this product on it's own. I don't like the smell to this lotion. It has a really strong floral and vanilla scent. There is also a TON of glitter in this lotion and it's not very moisturizing. I would not repurchase! 2/5 Stars

Lips -Sephora - Lush Flush Wine Lip & Cheek Stain 
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 1/29/2011 8:39:00 PM
I hate to give this product a really low rating. This stain does NOT last on me at all! If I use it on my cheeks the color barley shows up on my cheeks! You can only see a slight tint to my cheeks. Even if I apply a lot of this product it only lasts about 10 minutes to half an hour! On my lips it last a little bit longer. About a good 30 minutes. At first on my lips it's this nice blood red but it starts to fade after about 5 minutes of use. I will not repurchase! 1/5 Stars

Eye Shadow -Wet 'n' Wild - Idol Eyes - Creme Shadow Pencil - Pixie
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 10/8/2010 4:37:00 PM
This reminds me of NYX Jumbo Pencils except it is cheaper than NYX and it's packaging isn't that great. Pixie is a beautiful frosty champagne white gold color. I usually don't use this product as an eyeshadow base so I don't know if it creases or not. I once tried it as an all over lid color but it faded within a couple of hours! I use it to highlight my inner corners and my brow bone and if I don't touch it then it will last the entire day! I probably won't re-purchase this product because there's so much product and I only need a little bit everyday. PROS: ~Creamy & PIgmented ~Inexpensive ~Easy to blend CONS: ~Fades within a couple of hours ~Packaging is cheap and it sucks 3/4 Stars

Eye Shadow -Sephora - Colorful Mono Eyeshadow - Aspen Summit (23)
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 10/8/2010 4:17:00 PM
Like everyone else reviewing this product, I received this in the free birthday gift from Sephora. This eyeshadow is a snow white color with silver shimmers. I use this eyeshadow to brighten up the inner corners of my eyes and sometimes as a brow bone highlight. I probably won't repurchase this because I personally think that this is too harsh of a white for my skin tone. PROS: ~Pigmented ~Got it for free (Sephora Birthday Gift) ~Easy to blend CONS: ~Too harsh of a white for my skin tone 4/5 Stars

Eye Shadow -Wet 'n' Wild - Color Icon #252B Nutty
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 10/8/2010 4:13:00 PM
This is an AMAZING eyeshadow! It's quality and performance can rival any MAC shadow! The best thing is that it's a fraction of the price! The color is kind of a Walnut color with silver shimmers and it closely resembles MAC's Satin Taupe. I do agree with another review that mentioned that it is similar in color to the Maybelline Natural Smokes Eyeshadow Quad (The lid color) but the maybelline's one can't compare to the pigmentation of the Wet 'n' WIld one. The formula is smooth and buttery and it just glides on when being applied. 'Nutty' is extremely pigmented and you only need a little bit when applying it on your lids. PROS: ~Cheaper (can be bought at drugstores) ~Smooth & Buttery ~Easy to apply on your lids ~Extremely Pigmented ~Cute & Durable Packaging CONS: NONE 5/5 Stars (WILL re-purchase)

Shampoo -Neutrogena - T-Gel Stubborn Itch Control
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 7/29/2010 7:34:00 PM
Let me sum up my experience with this product in one word: TERRIBLE!!! I got the Neutrogena T-Gel with Stubborn Itch Control and let me tell you, it does NOT control my urge to scratch my scalp! In fact it makes it WORSE! Plus the smell was TERRIBLE and it was kind of expensive! I can't even stand to use up the rest of the bottle because it's so horrible! So now it's been sitting in my 'product graveyard' for two years because I can't seem to get myself to throw it away because I spent a lot of money on this product. I DEFINITELY WON'T re-purchase! PROS: ~Makes my hair feel clean ~Slight cooling sensation CONS: ~Makes my scalp EVEN ITCHER! ~Smells TERRIBLE! ~Pricy Overall: Will NOT re-purchase! If I could give this product a zero I WOULD! 1/5 Stars

Conditioner -Neutrogena - triple moisture deep recovery hair mask
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 7/29/2010 7:24:00 PM
I won't get into too much detail with this product mainly because I've used this product over two years ago. I have really frizzy and dry hair and this masque made my hair extremely soft to the touch and made it smell really good! This jar goes by really fast if you have longer hair because this jar is so tiny! My hair falls to right above my bust and I only need a medium sized dollop for all of my hair. I think I would repurchase this but it might be a while when I do because I get really lazy doing this once a week. Overall it's a really good drugstore hair masque. PROS: ~Available in the drugstore (cheaper) ~Smells really nice! ~Makes my hair softer and slightly less frizzy CONS: ~Very little bit product in the jar ~A tiny bit expensive for how fast I use it Overall: I WOULD re-purchase this product. 4/5 Stars

Gels/Soaps -Caress - Tahitian Renewal Body Wash
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 7/17/2010 4:57:00 AM
This body wash smells YUMMY! It smells like fruits. Although it appears to have gold shimmers in the body wash, it doesn't show up on my skin. I was hoping that the scent would linger but it seems to disappear after I shower. There is also tiny little exfoliating beads mixed in the body wash but it just sits on my skin and does nothing at all. PROS: ~Available in Drugstores (cheaper) ~Smells YUMMY! ~Decent Packaging CONS: ~Smell doesn't linger ~Exfoliating beads doesn't do anything! Overall: 3/5 Stars (Will NOT re-purchase)

Treatments -Aussie - 3 Minute Miracle
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 7/16/2010 3:39:00 AM
I have really frizzy wavy hair and I heard the hype about this product so I decided to try it. I really like the packaging because it's a nice squeezey tube because you don't have to struggle opening the cap to get the product out. This product made my hair soft but very greasy. I thought I used too much to make my hair greasy but I tried using very little product but it still gave me the same result! This smells WONDERFUL but just the scent alone won't make me re-purchase this product again. PROS: ~Drugstore (cheaper) ~Packaging ~Makes my hair soft ~Smells really good CONS: ~Makes my hair greasy! ~Weighs my hair down a little bit Overall: This is a decent product if you have damaged frizzy hair but beware it might be greasy for your hair! 3/5 Stars [Will NOT re-purchase]

Eye Shadow -Maybelline - Stylish Smokes in Natural Smokes
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 7/13/2010 12:16:00 AM
I bought this product because I wanted to use this as an everyday neutral eyes look. All of the colors in this pallet are very pretty. There are two shimmery shadows and two matte shadows. When you look in the pan, the 'lid' color is a beautiful shimmery browny taupe color while the 'crease' is a beautiful chocolate brown. The 'brow bone' color is a matte off white and the 'outer corner' is a deep rich coco matte shadow. These color is beautiful in the pan and when you rub your finger in it it looks SO pigmented! WRONG! While it is smooth to the touch, when you swatch it on your hand it shows up very chalky and I have to apply a ton of product to make it look decent. When you apply it on your eyelid, it's the same deal. You have to pack on a TON of product to make it show up on your lid! The shadow that really disappointed me was the 'lid' color. I really love this color but I have to pack it on to my brush to make it show up. The 'brow bone' color also fell short. I know it's a highlight color but it's very chalky and it barely shows up on my skin and it is the least pigmented in the entire pallet. Although I do love the sleek packaging there's just too many cons to this product that I simply won't re-purchace. PROS: ~Available in Drugstores (cheaper) ~Sleek Packaging ~Diagram on where to put everything on your eyes on the back of the pallet ~The 'crease' and the 'outer corner' is the most pigmented shadows in the pallet CONS: ~CHALKY! ~Little bit hard to blend ~When rubbed on finger looks pigmented, but when applied it falls short ~The 'lid' and the 'brow bone' color isn't pigmented at all! Overall: This pallet is simply too chalky for my taste. I will use it up but I don't plan on re-purchacing. I MIGHt plan on trying out other pallets in this line but I don't think I'm going to re-purchace 'Natural Smokes'. 3/5 Stars [Will NOT re-purchase]

Mascara -Maybelline - Full 'N Soft Mascara Waterproof
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 7/12/2010 11:44:00 PM
This is a pretty good mascara for daytime use. I got this in very black and I agree, it's very black which is a good thing! I like that it has a tapered end to the mascara wand so I can reach my lower lashes. This doesn't clump no matter how much you put on and your lashes will stay soft (soft compared to other mascaras). This product defines my lashes and lengthens it but it doesn't volumize it. Another thing is that it actually is waterproof! I tested it out in the shower and after I got out it was still on! One thing I didn't like is the smell of this product. It just smells horrible! Thankfully I can't smell it when it's on my lashes; I can only smell it when I'm putting it on which doesn't bother me too much. Another thing that disappointed me is that it didn't hold a curl. After I would use an eyelash curler and apply mascara, within one hour my lashes would droop down! One thing that I noticed is that when I first bought the mascara it was really wet but as the product got older it got drier and I liked the product better when it was a little bit drier. PROS: ~Very Black ~Tapered End ~Drugstore Mascara (cheaper) ~Writing on tube doesn't come off ~Lengthens ~SOFT to the touch! ~Waterproof! CONS: ~Smells TERRIBLE! ~Doesn't volumize ~Doesn't hold a curl Overall: I think this would be a perfect daytime mascara especially for school! This would be great if you are just starting out with makeup and you wanted to wear some to school but you don't want to go over the top. This mascara would also be appropriate for the office because it's nothing dramatic and it's very professional. Would you buy again: Yes but I'll try the regular version instead of the waterproof one

Eye Shadow -NYX - Champagne
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 7/12/2010 11:22:00 PM
Let me start off my saying I love this eyeshadow! It's so pigmented that it could rival with a MAC eyeshadow. In fact NYX champagne is a dupe for MAC All That Glitters. This eyeshadow is a golden peachy-pink champagne color with gold reflexes. It's smooth as butter and very soft to the touch. Another thing that I like about this eyeshadow is it's sleek black packaging. PROS: ~Super Pigmented!! ~Buttery smooth ~Dupe for MAC's All that Glitters ~Nice sleek packaging ~Available in Drugstores (Cheaper) CONS: ~A tiny tiny bit expensive for a single shadow for my taste BUT I can deal with it! Overall: 5/5 Stars (WILL re-purchase)

Skincare - Body -LUSH - Strawberry Feels Forever massage bar
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 7/12/2010 11:10:00 PM
I don't think this smells like strawberries; it smells more like a floral scent then strawberries. The sent lingers and gives me a headache. This didn't really sink into my skin and left a greasy feeling behind. I also tried it in the shower because a youtube guru said she used it while showering and it made her skin soft which was true but I still couldn't get past the strong scent and the floral smell to it. I will NOT repurchase.

Cleansers -Cetaphil - Gentle Skin Cleanser
SiLeNtLvEdREAMER 2/6/2010 11:02:00 PM
This is an okay cleanser, it's not the best, but not the worst. I liked that it was gentle on my skin but I felt it was too gentle. I know that you have to use a moisturizer after washing your face but this cleanser dried out my skin. Will use up the rest of the product but will NOT repurchase!
