Lips -Burt's Bees - Fig Lip Shimmer
rated 5 of 5

I use the lip shimmers all of the time and Fig is my favorite. It's a great color as a quick alternative to lipstick in the summer. The minty feeling is nice on your lips, and I keep a tube of Caramel on my night stand. My DH loves to kiss me goodnight...

Treatments -Burt's Bees - avocado hair treatment

Green Goo is the only way to describe this product. It makes your hair very soft, but it smells digusting and it's hard to get out of the tube. I use this on my hair extensions every couple of weeks. My hair and the human extension are very easy to comb out. I am satisfied with the soft, silky results.

Treatments -Yes To Carrots - Hair and Scalp Mud Mask
rated 1 of 5

This is not a mud mask - it's the same as the Yes to Carrots conditioner in different packaging. It's a thin consistency and you will need to use a lot of product if you have long hair. I used this mud mask three times and it was gone. It made my hair soft, but I didn't feel as though it was a deep conditioner. I will not buy this product again.

I wish I had found makeupalley sooner - I would have been able to read the reviews on this product, and I would never had purchased it. I was looking for "natural" conditioner and shampoo and stumbled upon Yes to Carrots. This conditioner did nothing for me - It made my hair feel like straw, and it smells funky too. I am stuck with two almost full bottles of conditioner (my DH didn't like it either)...I will not purchase this product again.

I tried to give this product a "zero", but it wouldn't let me...This shampoo made my hair feel like straw. I bought this shampoo for my DH too and he said the same thing, so I know it's true:)...Now, we are stuck with two bottles of almost full shampoo that did nothing but make our hair feel very dry. I tried the conditioner and the hair mask too - not impressed with any of these products.

Lotions/ Creams -Yes To Carrots - Yes To Cucumbers Completely Cool Body Butter
rated 1 of 5

This is not a body butter - it's nothing more than lotion in a jar. It smells nice at first, but leaves an odd after scent on your skin. I love cucumber scents and I was quite disappointed with this product. I will not buy this again.

Lotions/ Creams -Aveeno - Creamy Moisturizing Oil
rated 5 of 5

This is a favorite in my house ~ my DH and I love this lotion/body oil. It's a light and pleasing scent and it absorbs so quickly. It's expensive to use as an everyday lotion, so I buy it on sale, and use it occasionally. My DH likes to use this everyday and it does help his dry skin, during the long, hot desert summers.

Lotions/ Creams -The Body Shop - Moringa Body Butter
rated 5 of 5
pjw1209 9/7/2009 11:32:00 PM

Moringa is my favorite body butter from The Body Shop and my favorite scented lotion. I love the smell and it does stay with you for 24 hours or so - I go thru at least a tub every two months. It's expensive, but if you purchase the 10% discount card and use your free points, it's a small indulgence. Last but not least, be sure to rub excess body butter on the sleeves of your pajamas. You will be glad you did...I love this product and will purchase it again...

Great mask and a great price. I buy the economy size and I use this three times a week. Not sure if it does anything, but it sure makes me feel good.

Mascara -Maybelline - Great Lash Mascara
rated 3 of 5
pjw1209 9/7/2009 10:41:00 PM

Great Lash "Pink and Green" has been my day time mascara for over thirty years ~ it's one of my favorites due to price only. I use this mascara during the day when I run errands, go to the grocery store, etc. I am too cheap to wear anything decent if no one is going to see me. After 30 days, I buy another tube to avoid the dried up, clumpy effect that cheap mascara turns into. It's not worth spending more than $5.00 for day time mascara ~ it just doesn't last long enough...
