Masks -TheFACEShop - Fresh Fruit Lemon Mask Sheet

It really did nothing for my skin except make it a little sticky. It looked pretty creepy on too. It looked like one of the scarry masks from "The Strangers".

Liquid -Revlon - PhotoReady Makeup
jatkins 8/26/2010 7:20:00 PM
It's ok. A little too shimmery. It's also a little oily after a couple hours of wear. I will keep mine as a back up, but I will not repurchase. Revlon colorstay is still better by far!

Conditioner -Yes To Carrots - Pampering Hair Mud Conditioner
jatkins 8/1/2010 5:24:00 PM
This provided an awesome amount of volume for me. Shine did not increase or decrease, but it did make my mass of fine hair look like thick hair. This isn't the best shampoo I've ever used, but it's close. I bought it for $7.99 US at Ulta. EDIT (8/5/10): After a couple uses, it has really weighed down my hair, made it look slightly dull, and did not wash out easily. I think I'll have to use this sparingly and maybe only once a week.

Hair Styling Tools -Goody - Spin Pin
jatkins 7/31/2010 7:29:00 PM
Awesome product! It took me forever to get one as all of my local Targets and Walmarts were sold out of the blond one for weeks. This is so handy and does exactly what it says it does. You spin those pins in on opposite sides of your bun close to your head, and you have a secure bun. I have used this for a low bun to wear to work a couple times now. Everyone always asks me how I did it without bobby pins all over the back of my head.

Masks -Alba Botanica - Deep Sea Facial Mask
jatkins 7/31/2010 7:15:00 PM
This is a really good mask. It does not burn, but it feels tingly like it's working. My skin looked a bit brighter the day after I used it. I love masks and I'll keep this one in the rotation.

Treatments -Yes To Carrots - Hair and Scalp Mud Mask
jatkins 7/29/2010 11:41:00 AM
Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've used this twice now. It makes my fine, long, highlighted hair shinnier, thicker, fuller, and stronger. I will definitely repurchase this. I also went out and b ought the YTC Pampering Hair Mud Conditioner today for every day use. So far, I'm thrilled with this line. It does everything it claims to do!

Mascara -Maybelline - Volum' Express The Falsies
jatkins 7/28/2010 7:27:00 PM
Love it! Perfect. It does not give you the falsies look unless you really pile it on. However, I don't want to look like I have turantula eyes, so this is perfect. It does a great job and last all day.

Styling Products -John Frieda - Frizz-Ease - Take Charge Style Managing Mousse
jatkins 7/2/2010 4:34:00 PM
Disasterous mess! I bought this in the travel size as it was the only mousse that Target had in travel size right before I left for a weekend trip. This stuff was horrid. It made my hair frizzy in some areas and crispy in others. I was using it in a slightly humid climate. When my hair and this mousse encountered a humid day, the crispy part of my hair became sticky too. I have never liked Frizz-Ease products. I don't know why I bought another item hoping for the best. I think Frizz-Ease is by far the worst hair styling/health brand ever!

Lipstick -Revlon - ColorBurst in 070 Soft Nude [DISCONTINUED]
jatkins 5/24/2010 4:24:00 PM
This is a great slightly pink nude. It should be good for most colorings. I think it leans toward cooler coloring than warm, but either could get away with wearing it. Revlon makes the best nude lipsticks!

Lipstick -Revlon - colorstay smooth nude
jatkins 5/22/2010 10:20:00 PM
The best nude lipstick I have ever had! I've tried many high end and low end nudes and none of them were actually non-gothic and complexion enhancing in one. This one is actually gorgeous. Occasionally I use 1000 Kisses Nude lipliner from Rimmel London, but it's really not necessary. The lipstick last for hours. I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bronzers -Physicians Formula - Healthy Wear Bronzer
jatkins 5/20/2010 7:42:00 PM
I can't believe I'm only the second reviewer. This has been on the market for at least a couple months. I know because I kept going back and forth on picking it up because of the price. I ran out of my favorite PF bronzer and decided to try this. I bought it in medium because I figured the darkest one "tan" would be too dark. Like the reviewer before me said, this looks a lot lighter in the packaging than the color that actually applies. It is a bit expensive, but I think it's good quality. I half expected a little mess when I used this or for it to be at least a little powdery. I was wrong. After a couple applications, the compact still looks full. It is expensive for drug store, but I think it's good quality and convenient to repurchase. I really do not like the brush that comes with it. I use the Ecotools Retractile Khabuki. EDIT: I have to say that this is the most amazing bronzer I have ever tried. I love it! It gives perfect coloring, does not look orange or brown in person or in photos. The SPF protected me from a sunburn on my face while camping and didn't wear off the entire day of wind and boating. Love it and will be incredibly sad if it is ever discontinued.

Eyeliner -Revlon - ColorStay Liquid Eye Pen
jatkins 5/18/2010 1:36:00 PM
I bought this when it first came out and have never liked it. I couldn't get any liquid out of the tip at first. When I was finally able to get some out, it came out runny and grey in color. It took forever to dry and smudged like crazy. Revlon Colorstay should have just stuck with their wonderful foundation and left eyeliner to someone else. I wish it worked well because it is really is a convenient concept.

Mascara -Cover Girl - Lash Blast Length
jatkins 5/10/2010 12:40:00 PM
Really, Covergirl! I don't know you could make a mediocre mascara! This did not lengthen at all. Although it does't claim to thicken, I expected it to at least a little. The only positive I can say is that the black is truly black and the fomula applies smoothly. However, Loreal Pulse Perfection does that and much much more. I don't recommend this.

Bronzers -E.L.F. - Studio Golden Bronzer
jatkins 5/7/2010 12:54:00 PM
This is a great highlighter. I only use it on the top of my cheekbones. I can't imagine using it all over my face as it has lots of tiny glitters. Also, it's too light to be a bronzer on anyone but Snow White. So, I love it, but not for its intended purpose.
