Shampoo -Phyto - Phytojoba Shampoo
rated 5 of 5

I have used this for years. I keep trying to find something better and it doesn't exist. No matter how many other shampoos I try I always go back to this. It is perfect for my long dry hair tat tends to get flat and greasy at the roots. It moisturizes the ends and cleans/volumizes at the roots. I lather it in and comb it through to the ends and leave it in a couple of minutes. Then I follow with the phytojoba mask and leave it in a couple minutes as well. My hair has never looked or felt better

Conditioner -Phyto - Phytojoba - Intense Hydrating Mask
rated 5 of 5

I can't get over how wonderful this smells, like a creamsicle. Obviously smell is important to me. But it also makes my hair silky, shiny and bouncy with lots of volume. I hate the jar package and wish it came in a tube but everything else is fantastic. My hair is long and dry and tends to get greasy and flat on top. This conditioner is perfect for it

Treatments (Eye) -Perricone - Advanced Eye Area Therapy

This really does what it says. It faded my dark circles noticeably and really depuffs and moisturizers. I somehow don't have any crow's feet yet so I'm not sure how it works on that but for everything else its wonderful. It doesn't make eyeshadow fade or crease either

This color is so beautiful, especially when the sunlight hits it. I would call it a red-gold. It wears really well too

Polishes -Chanel - Blue Satin
rated 2 of 5

I was pretty disappointed. I loved the idea of a deep navy blue polish, but this looked black on me! I already own Black Satin and I didn't need another one. Even under bright light it just looked black. I can't bring myself to return it but I wish it was a little more blue

Lip Treatments -DuWop - Prime Venom

This made a visible difference. I put it on after I bought it and my husband asked me if I got smacked in the mouth. I don't know if that's the effect I was looking for but at least it does something. He found it pretty funny after I explained what it was. Oh well

Moisturizers -Kinerase - Clear Skin Moisture Light [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5
Britannia8 2/8/2008 7:46:00 AM

I have super oily skin, but my cheeks sometimes get sensitive and peel so I wanted something for night and also to try to delay wrinkles. I only use this at night, but its amazing. I don't wake up greasy and oily and it didn't give me blackheads. That's saying a lot because most moisturizers, even those for oily acne prone skin, do.. Its still a bit much for day for me but would be fabulous for someone not quite so greasy

Blush -NARS - The Multiple in Orgasm
rated 2 of 5
Britannia8 2/8/2008 7:38:00 AM

I loved the way this looked on me. The color was perfect, so natural and glowing. However when I removed it, my cheeks were really red and blotchy where the blush had been. I was in denial for awhile, but as soon as I quit using this and went back to the cream blush in Penny Lane it cleared right up. Too bad since it looked so nice on me

Styling Products -Bumble & Bumble - Thickening Spray
rated 1 of 5
Britannia8 2/8/2008 7:31:00 AM

This made my hair greasy and dull and sticky. I only used a little bit but my hair has way more volume without it. Luckily I was able to return it. I liked phytovolume much better for the volume, and it made my hair shiny too

Moisturizers -Cosmedicine - Medi-Matte Oil Control Lotion
rated 4 of 5
Britannia8 1/23/2008 7:55:00 AM

I adore this product. It is literally the only anti-shine moisturizer that hasn't made me broken out and greasy. I have tried almost all the moisturizers for oily skin and most just leave me even shinier. It does what it says. My only complaint is I really want the tinted one to look good, but the lightest shade (fair) is just too dark for me. It covers imperfections and redness perfectly, the shade is just the wrong color. I'm going to try mixing the untinted with it to see if that lightens it a bit. Does anyone else have that problem?

Eye Primer -Urban Decay - Eyeshadow Primer Potion - Original (UDPP)
rated 5 of 5
Britannia8 11/10/2007 8:37:00 AM

Finally! I have never met an eyeshadow or liner that didn't crease or fade away, and I work 12 hour night shifts and want my eye makeup to last. This was the solution. My eyes look the same at 8am that they did at 5pm when I applied it. I found that a thin layer works better, because too much on the lids make shadows harder to spread and blend.

I really like this color as a subtle alternative to black, like for day. It stays for hours and blends really easily

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Midnight Cowboy Rides Again
rated 4 of 5
Britannia8 11/10/2007 6:16:00 AM

This is so pretty! I haven't figured out a trick to keep the glitter from falling, even with the primer. But for going out at night, I don't think its a bad look to have a bit of glitter on the temples and tops of your cheeks. I think it looks really cool and festive

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Midnight Cowgirl Eyeshadow
rated 3 of 5
Britannia8 11/10/2007 6:05:00 AM

This is ok, but its a little too pink to look good on me. I like midnight cowboy better. The primer helps it stay on without creasing

Scrubs -Kiehls - Kiehls Papaya and Pineapple Face Scrub
rated 3 of 5
Britannia8 11/7/2007 5:49:00 AM

This seems so artificial, like liquid plastic. I wasn't crazy about the smell ether. It's not irritating, but doesn't feel that exfoliating . Fresh sugar face scrub blows it away in every way
