Okay product. A bit greasy and oversize granules are hard to work with. If you have a small bathtub, it is very hard to store this thing. I would repurchase only if I had a huge glamour bath with a sunken in hole for something like this. I wouldn't under any other circ.

Hair -Neutrogena - Clean Shampoo - Normalizing Formula (for Normal Hair)
rated 5 of 5

Love this shampoo for truly normal hair. Gently cleanses. Was a bit worried about the clear gel formula -- thought it may be too stripping. Key is to use less than you regularly do. Smells divine!

Shampoo -Avon - Advance Techniques Replenishing shampoo (normal hair)

I love this shampoo. Leaves my hair cleansed, but not stripped, and smells great, a fruity-floral. Good price (I pay $1.99 to $2.50, always buy on sale) and non-leaky packaging. FWIW, I believe this shampoo & conditioner is also "true to its label." I bought the normal set (I have normal hair) and it was the "right" amount of conditioning/cleansing.

I'm in love with this conditioner! Leaves my hair silky and smells great. It almost smells like Biolage. The price is great and I like the home delivery. I just placed another order for this! This may be a HG.

Lip Gloss -Christian Dior - Diorific plastic shine

Beautiful color (Spirited Rose) and finish -- a semi-opaque, high shine liquid lipstick. Only caveats are the price and "limited" color selection.

Awful, plasticy scent. Not at all natural smelling or like anything I've ever smelled before. Only good thing is convenient packaging and smooth feel. Otherwise, it's awful.

Lovely fruit scent that is not at all plastic-y or fake. I buy on sale w/ coupon for around $2.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lacquer in Fanplastico
rated 5 of 5

A great, *true* red. The smell doesn't bother me too much. It's also not that costly considering you need a very tiny amount. It leaves an opaque glossy finish, like liquid lipstick. It is long wearing, and leaves a nice, soft red stain when it finally does begin to wear. My favorite (and only, after trying several) red.

Gels/Soaps -Dove - Moisturizing Body Wash - "Deep Moisture"
rated 3 of 5
kimm 7/26/2002 10:01:00 PM

Smells great (nice, fresh, and soft) but instead of leaving my skin a "soft" type of moisturized, left it feeling greasy. And forget using it after a work out, left my skin completely oily. Wouldn't buy again.

HORRIBLE on my already wavy hair. Made it flat, crunch, and greasy looking. It smelled wonderful in the bottle, but I couldn't get it to smell on my hair. I also used a lot (slowly adding it to see results), and for one full head of medium length hair, it was 1/10 gone for one use.

Very good scrub -- looks rough in the packaging, but is really gentle. It says to mix with 1 or 2 drops water, but I mix lots more with that -- 50% scrub/50% water. Will prob. buy in the future.

Really anchors polish to your nails. Dries very quickly and does what it claims to do.

Great topcoat that extends the life of my manicure from 2-3 days to 2 weeks. Very shiny and dries quickly.

Great moisturizing color with staying power. Not too glossy and not a flat finish, either. I love the sleek, small packaging.

Great creamy, moisturizing coverage that I'd say is "medium coverage" for a concealer. I'd only use it on drier/normal areas, as the name implies (not a zit cover up). Definitely my HG of concealers .
