The only reason why I bought this was because when I walked past this stupid stuff in the $45 tub, I knocked it over. I felt bad, so I purchased it. I've used it before but wasn't planning on repurchasing. Yeah...it's good but it isn't anything special...and there is something so unhygenic about digging your fingers into a tub. Ew.

Gross. This is so thick and sticky that it just totally grosses me out. Ew.

Lotions/ Creams -Unlisted Brand - No-Ad Tanning Glitter Gel
rated 5 of 5

This stuff seriously rocks. I am one of those girls who doesn't care about the damaging rays of the sun (bad, I know) and I don't wear SPF (bad, I know) and I love going to tanning beds all year round (bad, I know). But for the summer, I was looking for something that doesn't have an SPF and isn't oily or greasy. This water based gel is AWESOME! I agree that the glitter is very noticable, but I couldn't feel it on my skin and I love the way it looks on my tan. My boyfriend thought it was a little rediculous...having glitter all over my body...but I really like it. I'm not sure if it really helps you tan anymore than you would without the gel on, but I haven't burned yet this summer and I am maintaining a beautiful tan at the moment. This is definitely a HG for me. Sand doesn't stick to it at the beach either! Yay!

Styling Products -Bath and Body Works - Bio High Shine Gloss

This rocks...I love the silky feeling that it leaves. Of course, you have to make sure that you don't overuse it. I use a dime sized dallop for my very thick shoulder length hair. It keeps it very straight in the humidity! Yay! (And I got it at their awesome sale for only $4.00!)

Lip Gloss -Lancome - Juicy Tubes - Sparkling Odile

I really like the "color" of this JT basically because I perfer very sheer lipglosses with little pigment. This goes on very well, wears comfortably and has a nice scent. I took off one lippie because it didn't really make my lips shiny...only a matte sparkle. A good purchase nontheless.

Shampoo -Alba Botanica - very emollient replenishing shampoo
rated 4 of 5
KaraLee 4/24/2004 12:25:00 PM

Although it is called "very emollient", I didn't find it to be a very moisturizing shampoo. But I honestly think it works really, really well when paired up with the very emmolient conditioner. I love using both of these products and I will continue to buy again and again!

Conditioner -Alba Botanica - Very Emollient Leave-In Conditioner
rated 5 of 5

I was using the sleek look matrix line, but after I learned that they tested on animals, I stopped. I picked this up at Wegman's of all places along with the shampoo and I couldn't be happier with it! Leaves my dry hair really soft and smooth and is perfect for when I use my straightening iron. Will repurchase again and again.

This started out really great, but now I think I may have a defective one because the hair started falling out! AH!!!

Scrubs -Neutrogena - Blackhead Eliminating Scrub
rated 5 of 5

I think this is a really great product. A little more grainy than the daily scrubs, but does the job. I have combo skin that isn't very sensitive and is prone to clogged pores...and I really think this is helping. I agree with a previous poster that this makes my skin unbelievably smooth!

This color is beautiful and the staying power is great, but why is it soooo much stickier than the other glosses?
