Toners -Boscia - balancing facial tonic
CrimsonKiss 3/15/2009 8:01:00 PM
I've been using this product for 2 months now and I am loving it! After cleansing, I spritz this on (it's a spray bottle; GREAT FOR EVEN application) and it is so refreshing. It calms my skin while softening it. It gets the skin ready for the moisterizing step. I have not once broke out from this and it does not irratate my sensitive/combo skin at all. I would buy this again when my bottle runs out. This is my HG toner. Best of all, the ingrediants is ALL NATURAL. No Chemicals No Preservatives No Sulfates

Treatments -Olay - Regenerist Daily Thermal Mini-Peel
CrimsonKiss 9/7/2008 12:02:00 AM
Blah, I was expecting this to be a HG since everyone had mostly good things to say about it. I saw no improvement in my skin so far and I actually had a few breakouts...It might be from this product contributing to the breakouts because my face was blemish free. I will continue to use this to see if the condition of my face gets worse or better. I'll update this again later to see if I feel different about product. PROS: Gentle enough for everyday use (I have senstive, combo skin),nice heating effect though it doesn't last more than like 5 seconds, leaves skin feeling soft. CONS: When you try to re-wet your face for that 'thermal experience' to last... it doesn't work, EXPENSIVE, causes sun sensitivity and breakouts.

Treatments -Neutrogena - Oil-Free Acne Stress Control 3-in-1 Hydrating Acne Treatment [DISCONTINUED]
CrimsonKiss 8/31/2008 5:51:00 PM
This product make the sizes of my acne decrease to a point where you can barely notice it! I like this product a lot because it doesn't irritate my skin or cause more blemishes. It also has a nice scent to it. I used to use the CLEAN AND CLEAR Advantage acne spot treatment with 2% Salicylic acid and it doesn't work well as this Neutrogena one. I will buy this again when my tube runs out!

Lip Gloss -Cover Girl - WetSlicks Amazemint
CrimsonKiss 8/30/2008 5:33:00 PM
I bought this gloss in slap happy and it didn't made me happy. When I was taking the clear wrapper thing off, the top of the gloss was very sticky. And when I applied it to my lips, I got an over-powering smell of TOOTHPASTE. ICK! The texture wasn't nice either. I'm a fan of minty stuff, but this gloss did NOT win me over because of the toothpaste minty scent. I thought it would be more of an herbal minty scent however, it isnt. I'm going to see if I can get my money back.

Shampoo -Clairol - Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship
CrimsonKiss 8/23/2008 10:44:00 PM
I'm loving the Long Term Relationship line!!! It's worth trying. The texture of the shampoo is not gel like. It's a creamy texture which is good for dry hair. My hair is dry and this line left my hair feeling moisturized and soft. It has a wonderful fruity scent too. I would love to buy this again.

Cleansers -Philosophy - Purity Made Simple (Real Purity Cleanser)
CrimsonKiss 8/23/2008 10:38:00 PM
I felt like I wasted a lot of money on this cleanser. All this cleanser does is clean like many other cleansers out there. It didn't get rid of blemishes or anything. I'm not going to buy another.

Shampoo -Avalon Organics Botanicals - Lavender
CrimsonKiss 8/7/2008 6:50:00 PM
It smells pretty decent, other than that, that's the ONLY decent thing about this shampoo! It dried my hair up like never before! While being in the shower still, as I was washing it off, I felt the texture of my hair becomming brittle and straw-like. Ick! I then quickly rinsed it all out and slapped on the conditoner(ALOT of conditioner) in hopes to repair the damage the shampoo has done. It didnt help... This shampoo isn't worth trying. I'm going to return this to get my money back.

Masks -Burt's Bees - pore-refining mask with green french clay ] ] [DISCONTINUED]
CrimsonKiss 8/6/2008 5:26:00 AM
After hearing good things about this product, I gave it a shot. And wow! WHAT A HASSEL it was to try to mix it to that 'thin paste' . I kept making it TOO watery, really annoying. I created a huge mess...Anyways when I finally came close to getting it to that 'thin paste' i applied it to my face and at first it was a nice feeling then it got to be too irratating for my sensitive/combo/ acne-prone skin. I don't like this mask at all. I will NOT buy this again.

Cleansers -Clean & Clear - Morning Burst Shine Control Facial Cleanser
CrimsonKiss 7/19/2008 4:42:00 PM
The Pros: This cleanser has a refreshing scent that surely does wake me up. It's gentle on the face even though it has those beads. The Cons: This cleanser didn't help my face at all. When using it, I had horrible break outs. Yuck! Love the scent, hate the product. I would NOT buy this again.

Shampoo -Aussie - Moist Shampoo
CrimsonKiss 7/18/2008 6:38:00 PM
I heard some good reviews on this product so I decided to try it for myself. First of all, I love the smell--smells like some sort of sweet treat. As for whether or not the shampoo did a good job of cleansing and moisturizing, well...The shampoo does do a good job of cleaning and moisturizing but not as it is hyped up to be. After the first use, I did notice my hair became much smoother and shiny; however, later on I notice the tips of my hair becomming a bit drier. But if you wash your hair every other day like me, then the dry tips aren't going to be a real issue because the dry tips problem is only a 'out the shower' thing. The next day, the hair isn't as dry and is INDEED pretty moist when used with conditioner of course. Overall, it is an OKAY product. Not that bad, but not terrific either.
