Shampoo -TRESemme - Smooth & Silky Shampoo for Dry or Damaged Hair with Vitamin H
rated 4 of 5
Karie 12/12/2007 12:16:00 PM

I actually like this shampoo from tresemme. If you use the matching conditioner with it, it makes a nice moisturizing, smoothing combo. I don't like the cumbersome bottle, but with the pump it is ok. It is big and does not fit on some shower shelves. Otherwise a great product which matches if not out performs more expensive salon products. My hair is smooth and soft after using the shampoo and conditioner together.

Styling Products -Suave - Anti-Frizz Smoothing Gel with Aloe
rated 5 of 5
Karie 11/29/2007 12:26:00 PM

Ok. this gel is fantastic! It leaves your hair soft but defined if your going curly, or soft with nice volume if you are going straighter. It is cheap and works wonderful...This is bordering on HG status with me. No cons only Pros. Definitely try it...you have nothing to lose.

Hair -Dove - Intense Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner
rated 5 of 5
Karie 11/27/2007 12:51:00 PM

This is definitely HG material for me. I think the scent is amazing and the shampoo and conditioner leave hair healthy, soft and gorgeous! I have fine but somewhat coarse hair and a lot of it. I can easily straighten it with a hair dryer and brush but it also curls easily. I don't know how you could go wrong with this! Love it!!

Excellent shampoo. It actually was cooling on my scalp. love the fresh scent and the fact that it added moisture to my hair without weighing it down. I used the matching conditioner and love the results. Just another pair to add to my favorites.

Mascara -New York Color - Curling Mascara in Pearlized Black
rated 5 of 5
Karie 8/15/2007 2:23:00 PM

I love this mascara and I have used everything and have been searching for my HG mascara. I have used super expensive to the cheapest available. I did the one eye test the other day and put this mascara up against my clinique and it won. My eye done with this mascara looked so much better than the clinique eye! I love the packaging of the high end cosmetics but for performance you can't beat this mascara.

Fragrances -Avon - Imari Seduction
rated 5 of 5
Karie 8/7/2007 12:10:00 PM

Imari Seduction is a new fragrance from Avon and it is amazing! It totally reminds me of Fantasy by Britney Spears. The lasting power is decent and to me it smells nothing like the other imari fragrances. I love this scent and it is really inexpensive compared to the other fragrances that it mimics...worth every penny! This is a nice fragrance to wear any time of day...I have gotten so many compliments on this fragrance everytime I wear it by both men and women.

Conditioner -Freeman - Sea Kelp Moisture Conditioner
rated 4 of 5
Karie 7/16/2007 12:00:00 PM

I like this conditioner and it is a nice alternative to the usual heavy "cone" products on the market. I love the scent and the results on my hair when I use this product. Freeman has a really nice leave in conditioning/styling cream that smells amazing, like a fruit salad. Excellent products!

Treatments -Sunsilk - hydra TLC multi-symptom masque
rated 4 of 5
Karie 7/9/2007 12:10:00 PM

I like this product but I dont like the packaging. I wish it came in a bottle because it is difficult to manage the tub in the shower without getting water in it. The smell of this product is so fresh and clean and it lasts all day. I think this product is quite moisturizing when used with the hydra TLC shampoo and leave in creme. I would definitely re purchase these products again and again. Excellent!

Mascara -Maybelline - Lash Discovery Mascara
rated 4 of 5
Karie 7/4/2007 1:01:00 PM

I think this is a great product. I first bought this on vacation because it was the only mascara this little mom and pop store sold at the beach. When I saw how little the brush was I didnt have high hopes. When I tried this I was so surprised, it has now become a staple in my makeup bag!!! I love it and it makes my lashes long with no clumps. Dont be fooled by the tiny brush, it works great.

I think this scent is just gorgeous! I love the body moisture spray. It is a much softer version and it is so unique. How sad it is discontinued! I will stock up where I can.

This Product is amazing for a dollar ! It has a thick consistancy and it smells amazing!! Great for a CO wash. The matching shampoo is great too! No cones just beautiful, clean and wonderful smelling hair. Cant beat the quality at such a low price.

Styling Products -Pantene - PANTENE - Ice Shine Volume Mousse
rated 4 of 5
Karie 6/15/2007 12:09:00 PM

I think this mousse works really nice on my long naturally curly processed hair. Why all the negatives on pantene...Nothing works miracles but these products are certainly equal to if not better than salon brands. My thumbs are way up for the entire pantene line!

Lotions/ Creams -Ocean Potion - Ever Glow Lotion
rated 5 of 5
Karie 6/15/2007 10:52:00 AM

This is definitely HG self tanning ! This product does not turn orange and rub off on everything. The scent is similar to orange creamsicle but it works well with other fragrances and eventually wears off. It is a lot better than some of the scents of the other self tanners on the market. The value can't be beat...HUGE container with pump for just a little bit of money! Its great.

Cleansers -Neutrogena - Oil-Free Acne Wash
rated 4 of 5
Karie 6/13/2007 10:56:00 AM

I really like this cleanser, and yes I love the way it smells. I think it must just be an association thing with good memories. I think it is a great cleanser for someone with oily acne prone skin. All skin care routines take patience and you have to stick with things in order for them to work. This cleanser has been around for quite awhile and is worth a try. As you can see from the reviews they are mixed, but hey not everything works for everybody! My dermatologist told me to use this! Great Product!

Foundations -Cover Girl - Advanced Radiance Age-Defying Makeup
rated 4 of 5
Karie 6/7/2007 1:01:00 PM

I love this foundation and I usually use mineral makeup. I dont like a lot of makeup and this stuff is great! It looks so natural and really improves the look of your skin without being heavy. The colors are nice although they are quite light when they go on the skin. It looks a lot darker in the package. I think it is definitely worth the money.
