Conditioner -Unlisted Brand - One 'n Only - Argan Oil Restorative Mask
brooke2010 12/11/2012 12:42:00 AM
Let me start off by saying I wish that I could literally buy this mask for you, come to your house, and see the look on your face after you use it on your hair. I am THAT in love with this. I am a hair product junkie and I'm always looking for something new and awesome, so I hardly buy the same product twice unless I truly love it. That being said, I can actually say this is my HG mask and I will never buy another brand. I am in awe of the results I get. I have actually started using it every other day in place of the conditioner in this line because it makes my hair sooo soft and healthy. I cannot stop touching it. Not to mention, price is awesome, smell is amazing (one of my favorite scents ever), and the packaging is perfect, unlike the hydrating mask. I will repurchase over and over.

Conditioner -Suave - Strawberry conditioner
brooke2010 12/3/2012 9:36:00 PM
If you would've told me about 6 months ago that I would fall in love with suave in the future, I would've looked at you like you were crazy. I was a total Pureology addict for the longest time. To me, expensive automatically meant it was better. I can thankfully say this is not the case anymore. I was at the grocery store and decided I wanted to buy some strawberry shampoo, I had used this same kind years ago when I was a kid and loved it. It was less than $2 for a huge bottle and I absolutely LOVED the familiar smell. So I bought the shampoo and conditioner with pretty low expectations. This conditioner especially has exceeded them by far. It is dirt cheap, especially to someone who used to spend $20 on an 8 ounce bottle of conditioner every few weeks. The smell is incredible, like strawberry candy, and does linger for a while. I love that you get so much product! I am a very generous conditioner person, and I always run out of it before shampoo, but that's not a problem when it comes to Suave products that are so dang cheap! My hair is unbelievably soft and smooth. It feels like it did before I bleached it over a year ago- virgin hair status from a drugstore product...I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't experienced it. I will repurchase this forever and ever. Thank you Suave for an inexpensive, amazing product!

Lip Gloss -MAC - Nymphette lipglass
brooke2010 11/26/2012 11:39:00 PM
Love this color. It's a gorgeous pink with gold and it reminds me of the Nars Orgasm blush, but for lips. It's universally flattering and is pretty sheer once you put it on. Only complaint is how sticky it is. My fiance hates it, so I try not to wear it around him, lol. MAC products are expensive but usually worth the money. I've found this lipgloss doesn't stay as long as some do, but it's not a huge hassle.

Lips -Revlon - Colorburst Lip Butter in Red Velvet
brooke2010 11/26/2012 11:34:00 PM
I am so in love with this shade. It's the perfect red for my skin tone. I love that it doesn't dry out your lips either, since it's more of a balm than a lipstick. It's a little more sheer than traditional lipstick as well, which is nice. I am obsessed!

Polishes -Essie - Ballet Slippers
brooke2010 11/26/2012 11:12:00 PM
On my second bottle of this color. I love it so much that I will continue to buy it, even though it is pretty streaky. Usually 3 coats is perfect for me...just takes a lot of time to apply. But like I said, it's worth it. I also love that essie polishes peel off instead of chip. It makes it much easier to remove, at least for me, anyway.

Shampoo -Suave - strawberry shampoo
brooke2010 11/21/2012 12:38:00 AM
I just love the sweet smell and how much product you get for hardly any money. I love that I can finally only spend $2 on a huge bottle of shampoo and conditioner, as opposed to $20 for something I run out of immediately. Poor college students like myself, you need to try this out! I've been using this for a week and my hair is unbelievably smooth and soft- all I do is just put some argan oil in my hair after I've washed it and it feels amazing. I don't understand how or why it works so well since this has sulfates, but I'm not complaining! I will continue to keep using it until it disappoints, can't get enough of the smell!

Eye Primer -E.L.F. - Eyelid Primer
brooke2010 11/19/2012 11:31:00 PM
Thank God for ELF and its incredible products at low prices. Seriously, 1 dollar for this primer?! Can't beat that! I've found that it may not last quite as long as the urban decay one, but it's SO much cheaper and works well enough, let's just say that. Plus it's much easier to remove than the UD primer. I will absolutely repurchase this!

Shampoo -Matrix - Biolage - Hydrating Shampoo
brooke2010 11/19/2012 11:22:00 PM
Ok, so I am actually reviewing the generic version of this product I got at Sally's (5 dollars a bottle and the exact same ingredients, scent, and everything!) and I am thoroughly impressed. I wasn't expecting to like this because it has sulfates in it and I've been trying to avoid them. However, I've always loved the smell of Biolage and wanted to get it since it was so cheap. My hair is SO soft and silky. Normally when I get out of the shower, I immediately feel like I need a leave-in conditioner because my ends are so dry. Not the case here. The conditioner is extremely thick and moisturizing, as well as the shampoo. I highly recommend this if you buy it at Sally's for cheap. Now I can see why people rave about this line!

Fragrance -Chanel - Bleu de Chanel
brooke2010 11/19/2012 12:53:00 AM
Bought this for my fiance last Christmas after smelling it on a friend. I cannot express how much I love the scent. He wears it every day and it has lasted about a year. It's very citrusy and I love it. Very expensive but worth it since it lasts forever. Chanel is so classic, I will continue to buy it for him.

Eye Shadow -NYX - Jumbo Eye Shadow Pencil - Milk
brooke2010 11/19/2012 12:48:00 AM
LOVE for highlighting. I use this under my brows and sometimes in the inner corner of my eyes. It makes such a huge difference-really brightens up your eyes. I hate how you can't sharpen it, though. Mine is just about down to the very bottom, so I'll have to buy a new one soon. Oh well. It's affordable and not tested on animals, a huge plus for me.

Fragrances -Vera Wang - Princess
brooke2010 11/19/2012 12:34:00 AM
I have been wearing this perfume since I was 15 years old. I absolutely adore it. It's such a pretty, romantic smell. I stopped wearing it for a few years and wore Viva la Juicy instead, but I missed Princess, so I got another bottle. The packaging is what originally drew me in- how can you say no to an adorable heart bottle with a crown on top?! All of my friends and family love the scent, they can always recognize it on others because of me. This is perfect if you like sweet scents. Also- the original bottle I got lasted 6 years!

Mascara -FairyDrops - Scandal Queen Mascara
brooke2010 11/18/2012 11:49:00 PM
I was SO excited to try this mascara because of all the hype. I thought the brush was so cool and I thought it would give me super full lashes. Nope. It looked really weird on me- my lashes clumped together so badly it looked like I only had about 5 lashes on each eye. Just....strange. Tried it several different ways and I got this result every time. Sadly I returned it to Sephora.

Mascara -Maybelline - Volum' Express The Falsies
brooke2010 11/18/2012 11:47:00 PM
Let me start off by saying I am a mascara hoarder. I just counted and I have 13 in my makeup bag at the moment. However, one of my favorites is the Falsies. I hardly ever repurchase mascaras because I like to try different kinds, but I have repurchased this twice. It gives you incredible length and volume. I usually do about two coats and I love how it looks. The brush seems to help with my straight lashes also. I love it!

Awesome mascara. It does everything it promises. Gives good volume and it doesn't clump or flake off. It just gives you a pretty, natural look. Definitely recommend for every day use.

Misc Beauty Tools -Clarisonic - Pro Skincare Brush
brooke2010 11/18/2012 11:42:00 PM
I cannot live without my clarisonic. It's my number one must-have beauty tool. The first time I used it, it made my skin feel brand new. It was unbelievably soft and smooth, and it removed my makeup better than anything else I've used. Hate having to charge it, but it's a small price to pay for having healthy, gorgeous skin. I'm not kidding when I say strangers ask me what I'm using on my skin- it makes that much of a difference. Worth every penny.
