Masks -Queen Helene - Mint Julep Masque
nakedmannequin 5/9/2008 10:28:00 AM
I used to use this mask all the time when I was a young teenager and I remember loving it then. I got older and sort of banished it, thinking it was "juvenile" since it was a very cheap drug store find. I moved on to neem masks, warming clay masks, collagen and Co Q-10 masks... with price tags upwards of $30... I bought this again yesterday for the first time in probably 8 years and it is more fantastic than ever and after two applications, benefited my skin more than any other pricey mask I've tried. I should just stick with what works, eh? Under $3 and terrific.

Lotions/ Creams -Bath and Body Works - Temptations Glittery Gumdrop body lotion
nakedmannequin 5/9/2008 10:20:00 AM
I got this as a gift and it took me two months before I actually used it. The smell is nice, but VERY VERY strong. I have to leave the room that I apply it in because its so overwhelming. After it dries the scent lingers FOREVER. I don't think I'd buy it again, just because the overpowering scent had lead to to mix it with unscented Jergens... so that one bottle is going to last me a while...

Low tingle factor, good color, but it feels like rubbing Vaseline on your skin! Blech, I don't want to even think about how clogged my pores got. Breakout to ensue, I'm sure...

Eye Shadow -NYX - Ultra Pearl Mania- Mink Pearl
nakedmannequin 5/9/2008 10:11:00 AM
WOO! I got 2 of these on sale at an outlet mall while visiting New Orleans. $3 for both! Pigment is excellent, its smooth, it lasts and goes an extremely long way. Also good for wet application and to mix into other powdered shadows. I just wish I would have bought a few more colors.

Styling Products -Garnier - Fructis Long and Strong Leave-In Conditioner
nakedmannequin 5/9/2008 10:07:00 AM
This is good as a leave in conditioner in WET hair. On dry hair it becomes greasy and sticky. A little goes a long way. Its done a good job of keeping my hair protected and moisturized, so its a daily product. Been looking for something else, though.

Treatments -Organix - Coconut Milk Anti-Breakage Serum

I picked this up at Walmart the other day based on smell alone. I use it along with my leave in conditioner and it gives INCREDIBLE shine and softness. I've also come to rubbing a bit on my legs and shoulders, as it gives a very sexy sheen and leaves your skin very soft. The smell is DELICIOUS.

Lotions/ Creams -Ocean Potion - Ever Glow Lotion
nakedmannequin 3/8/2008 9:45:00 PM
I tan in tanning beds but I use gradual self tanner lotions in between my visits to keep my color revved up. After reading the reviews for this product I decided to pick it up at Walmart today. It was under $4. I just used it about 10 minutes ago... and although it smells okay in the bottle, it started STINKING on my skin. And it feels really sticky right now. I don't know if it will dry, but so far, I don't like it at all and I'm thinking of returning it to walmart adn reclaiming my $3.88.

Lotions/ Creams -California Tan - X Power - With Bronzers
nakedmannequin 10/27/2007 10:51:00 PM
I work at a tanning salon so I've used a plethora of lotions. This has strong DHA bronzers which will give you instant color but streak easily and look odd on lighter complected people. The consistency is thin and a bit oily, the smell is not impressive.

Fragrances -Calvin Klein - Euphoria
nakedmannequin 10/27/2007 10:42:00 PM
I was in my University library killing time with a magazine about two years ago when I ran across a Euphoria sample. Smelled it, and literally a chill ran down my spine. I just KNEW. I went and bought it the next day. Love it. So versatile. Floral enough with hints of marshmallow so its soft, but with sultry musk undertones. My boyfriend can't keep his hands off me when I wear it and people ask me ALL the time what it is. Several people have gone out and bought it with my recommendatoin. Only complaint? The bottle is shaped awkwardly. Its a bit hard to spray.

Fragrances -Giorgio Armani - Acqua Di Gio for men
nakedmannequin 10/27/2007 10:38:00 PM
My boyfriend loves this scent, which I find a bit odd because he discriminates against fragrances so much, especially those that are citrusy. I find it to be unisex. I have no probably wearing it during the day, but for the evening, especially on a man, it is not nearly musky enough.

Fragrances -mark - Jewel Eau de Toilette
nakedmannequin 10/27/2007 10:34:00 PM
I initially smelled this as a sample in the avon catalog and was apprehensive about it. I liked it, but wasn't 100% sure because it smelled sort of young. Got it yesterday. The bottle is very cheap looking and at first it is very overwhelming (which freaked me out) but after a few minutes softened up a great deal. I used it about 8 hours ago and it is still lingering... its turned into a very soft, sweetly-sexy scent. Not too flowery, and just sugary enough to be comfortable. Not my favorite fragrance ever, but I'll definitely use it. But I did get jipped. I didn't get my GWP but I don't feel like hassling avon about a cheap plastic necklace anyway.
