Great product! i ordered this from the US (i live in australia) and dont know what i'll do when it runs out! It's a lovely, sheer colour that would suit all complexions. its easy to blend and to build up.

Hair -Matrix - sleek look line

this was pretty crap...i bought it as a change from my usual terax and ended up giving it away. it made my roots greasy and my ends dry (and i usually have dry hair) and i didnt like the scent. it didnt make my hair shiny or sleek- it actually turned out fluffier than usual! i will never repurchase, and have gone straight back to terax.

Shampoo -Terax - Miele Shampoo

this is a fantastic product! i have really difficult hair (thick, coarse, dry, frizzy) and ive been searching for years for something to help. ive finally found it with Terax Miele shamps. it transforms my hair into silky soft strands, free from frizz and i find that its so good it doesnt really matter what conditioner i use on top of it (i use clairol herbal essences, by the way). it also smells like honeycomb, which is a nice change from the regular terax scent (which is more like chemicals). just be careful- because its so moisturising, you dont need to put any conditioner on your roots. two thumbs up!

Conditioner -Clairol - Herbal Essences Intensive Blends Conditioner for Dry Hair

this was one of the very few products that are moisturising enough for my very thick, coarse hair. it smells fantastic (and the smell stays!) and works quickly- you can leave it in for about a minute and thats all you'll need :) its cheap for the huge bottle you get, so overall, 5 out of 5.

Lotions/ Creams -Palmers - cocoa butter body gloss
rated 5 of 5

i actually got this as a freebie, but i will be buying again. it doesnt have quite the same smell as the cocoa butter formula but its pleasant enough. the tube is easy to use, and the lotion is moisturising and has the prettiest pearly sheen to it! overall, this is a great product, especially when youre going out at night.

Lotions/ Creams -Palmers - Palmer's Shea Butter Lotion

this is also fantastic! a little thinner in texture than the cocoa butter formula, it smoothes the skin, heals scars and smells like bananas :) an all around winner!

this is the most incredible body product ever made! it has the perfect texture, it really softens the skin, it smells like chocolates and its dirt cheap! you'd be crazy not to be totally in love with it!

Lip Gloss -Napoleon Perdis - Satin Lips Liquid Lipstick

i got this as a freebie with a magazine, and i really like it! the texture is almost like a balm, it really makes the lips feel good. the smell is pleasant and the colour (hollywood) is pretty and can be layered. the only problem i have with this product is the packaging- i find that these tubes tend to leak in you handbag and can be kinda messy. overall, a great product!

i really like this product. the colour is great, and the coverage is nice and light and very natural. i loved the creamy consistency- very moisturising. id reccomend it to anyone (well, maybe just those with clearer skin) and will definately repurchase. EDIT: im now worried that the colour is too pink on my golden skin. so if you are yellow toned, use with caution

Styling Products -The Body Shop - Brazil Nut Define and No Frizz Styling Cream
rated 2 of 5

this didnt really do anything for my thick, coarse, dry hair. it didnt remove frizz, just gummed it up. it didnt add moisture either. however, it smelled unbelivable! it was so good that if they made it into perfume i would bathe in it :)

i have thick, dry, wavy hair, but this worked wonders! i worked it through the lengths whilst wet, then once it was dry i ironed it straight. it feels so silky! and no frizz! i think its suitable for all hair types, not just fine to medium. ill totally buy again!
