Conditioner -Garnier - Sleek and Shine
Hautepants 1/7/2013 6:13:00 PM
Two words..........build-up. This was okay the first couple of times I used it. Smelled good, made my hair somewhat shiny...but I never really loved it. After awhile I noticed a crazy build-up and my hair started to feel coated and greasy. Will not buy again.

Treatments -Redken - All Soft HEAVY CREAM
Hautepants 1/7/2013 6:06:00 PM
One of my absolute favorite conditioners ever. My hair is very long and gets dry easily. The heavy cream works like a dream at making it look and feel conditioned, less damaged, without making it feel heavy. silicone filmy, or leaving a crazy residue. I LOVE IT!!!!!!

Hair -Got 2 Be - Rockin' It Encore Fresh Dry Shampoo
Hautepants 11/24/2012 1:15:00 PM
I like this stuff a lot for the price. It's a good Dry Shampoo for when you're on the go or at the drugstore and need something quick. My hair was super dirty when I used it from going to the gym two days in a row and not having time to wash it before we left the house. It seriously made my hair soft and shiny again with tons of bounce. This product doesnt last very long though, so if you're going to use it really often I would probably find something else. Otherwise it's really great for the price.

I love this conditioner so much! It is definitely my HG. Makes my thick coarse hair so soft and shiny. And the best part is, it doesnt have a lot of yucky stuff in it to weigh hair down after awhile. I hate hate hate product build up..and this stuff doesnt have any. Love!

Conditioner -Yes To Carrots - Pampering Conditioner
Hautepants 6/5/2012 12:32:00 AM
After hearing such good things about Yes to Carrots conditioner from my friends, I decided I needed to finally try it. I'm always on the lookout for good conditioners without parabens and sulfates and this one was only 8 dollars, which is pretty cheap! My hair is really long and very dry, so I'm always looking for something that really nourishes it. Sadly, this product did just the opposite. I went through half a bottle until I finally decided I just couldn't use this anymore. It made my hair more dry and brittle than any conditioner I've ever used before. It also left it extremely tangled. The smell also smells like baby powder, which I don't really enjoy. After all this, I realized maybe everyone liked the Yes to Carrots Hair Mud conditioner...but I still don't think I'll be trying anymore of their conditioners anytime soon.

Loose Powders -E.L.F. - Studio High Definition Powder
Hautepants 4/17/2012 4:00:00 PM
Why didn't I know about this before?! I have been using MUFE HD foundation and MAC powder. I came across this on a Target binge and had seen the reviews, so I thought for $6 you can't really cry if it's not as good as You expected. I LOVED this!!! I think the reason people are getting a white Face from it, is they're not applying it Correctly and using too much. You only need a little and I wouldn't use the puff they give with it. I find that loose powder always applies better with a powder brush! Elf has one that is also amazing. You can also fan it off with a brush after applying so that you get all the excess off..but I didn't find that necessary with my application. It left my skin looking so pretty and soft, and really set my foundation perfect. It's great. I love it!

Lipstick -E.L.F. - Studio Matte Lip Color
Hautepants 4/17/2012 3:53:00 PM
I love these lipsticks! First of all, I have really dry lips and these don't dry my lips out as much as some reviews say. If you apply a lip primer, conditioner, or balm before you should be fine. These colors are great. I love the coral, which has a little more color than a nude. It looks gorgeous with a dark or smokey eye. I also love the red and it is by far one of the best drugstore shades I've found. I usually use MAC reds. I love the stick this comes in..its like a fat pencil, but I can apply it easier than normal lipstick. Overall, for three dollars you really can't complain. I was actually pretty blown away by how great the shades are for the price point.

Moisturizers -St. Ives - Collagen-Elastin Essential Moisturizer
Hautepants 1/1/2012 2:27:00 PM
This made my skin feel awesome everytime I put it on. Too bad it clogs my pores and makes my skin break out everytime I use it. And not just tiny little bumps, but big under the skin, cystic acne type bumps..which I never ever get. I continued to use it a couple of times just incase..and without fail it kept making my skin crazy. I had read other reviews saying the saying the same thing...and have come to the conclusion that mineral oil is horrible for my skin.

Moisturizers -Josie Maran Cosmetics - Argan oil
Hautepants 1/1/2012 2:22:00 PM
This stuff made my face break out in tiny little bumps all over my forehead and cheeks. I thought it might be something else I was using, but every time I used this stuff it did it. Made my skin feel a little too oily, but it did make it look nice. All in all, I obviously won't be using this anymore..but I'll put be putting the rest to good use on my hair.

Masks -Queen Helene - Mint Julep Masque
Hautepants 3/1/2011 2:54:00 AM
Good, no frills mask. Cleans pores, easy to use, a bit messy...but most clay masks are. I love how cheap this is and how it smells and feels minty. It makes my skin look pretty great afterwards. There's really no reason not to use this mask.

Highlighters -MAC - Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle
Hautepants 3/1/2011 2:44:00 AM
I looooove this!! It makes my skin look so pretty and glowy. I use this over foundation, and you can put it all over your cheeks or your t-zone. This sets my foundation and also can be used as a highlighter, depending on the look you're going for. It's a little pricey, but MAC products last a long time, so IMO it's worth it. My new HG!

Hair Removal -Nair - Naturally Smooth Warm Wax
Hautepants 3/1/2011 2:26:00 AM
I'm really happy with this wax. It's extremely easy to use, and works well. It's around 8 dollars for a big jar and comes with a bunch of strips and a large popsicle style applicator. It smells really good and is easy to apply. It takes 15 seconds to warm and stays warm for awhile. I cut the strips depending on what I'm waxing. This says its for legs, and bikini, but I use it for my brows too. All in all, I would totally buy this again. Good stuff.
