Shampoo -Unlisted Brand - One 'n Only - Argan Oil Moisture Repair Shampoo
Kipper8588 3/22/2012 6:12:00 PM
Where to start? This starts out with some awesome promises! No sulfates and paraben free- thats a thumbs up in my book. The first time I used it, I noticed the smell right off the bat. You know when a girl wears too much perfume and its CLEAR that she's just trying too hard? (come on, we've all been there.... :P ) Well that is what this is like. TOO much of a smell to it- althought it doesn't linger when rinsed. Anywho, that was the first thing I noticed. The second thing was, that it really takes a long time for it to lather (I know, its because of the "no sulfate" I get it) but that doesn't really bother me. The 'poo is really thick too. I rinsed it out and followed with conditioner. It really felt no different after I got out of the shower than my other shampoos made my hair feel. The only thing is, it was a GREASE pit within 24 hours. Keep in mind, my hair is very fine and only to about my shoulders and I have always had an issue with it being greasy on me, but never this bad. ALSO, I think this would be the WORST is that I got pimples around my hairline! I never* get acne. If I have 2 pimples at a time, that is a huge breakout for me! So keep all of this in mind when you go to purchase this shampoo. Oh, also- I don't have sensitive skin at all.

Shampoo -Pantene - Fine Hair Solutions - Fragile to Strong
Kipper8588 9/6/2011 8:45:00 PM
Smells amazing, and does well with my color treated hair. I don't know if it will actually improve me hairs strength or not, but it does leave it feeling rather soft (not as much now as I just colored it....)

Amazing. Great application, AMAZING coverage. ( I had PINK and red in my hair, and they were BRIGHT & this covered it easily and completely the first time! only issue is there is a little part at the top that when I get in the sun you can see the red shining through a little bit!) and my hair doesn't feel all.,...nasty. It did feel a bit dry right after, but some 3 minute miracle & leave in conditioner took care of that for the most part. I will be using this again for sure!

Kipper8588 4/17/2011 11:01:00 PM
I love this lotion! It smells like a downplayed vanilla and the bottle is awesome. It looks like a late 1800's early 1900's bottle! So cute :) It is SO moisturizing that it only takes a little drop and it is very thick! The best thing? It is NATURAL. It is paraben free, phthalate free, propylene glycol free and dye free. This is a new HG for me! :)

Fragrances -Coach - Legacy Perfume

HG FRAGRANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To me this honestly smells like Holister or Abercrombie & Fitch. Not any of the fragrances, but the store itself. I have been looking for this scent forever as I knew it had to be one! Honestly I would have thought they would have one like it at A&F, but go figure. lol This is beautiful, 1 spray goes a long way and it lasts. Ahhh love :)

Gels/Soaps -Philosophy - Chocolate fudge cake 3-in-1
Kipper8588 1/23/2011 1:07:00 PM
EDIT!: The one I have turned out to be Double Hot Cocoa! Not fudge cake! Oh my goodness! Philosophy never fails to give me an awesome-baked-good smelling shower gel. This smells like someone literally put chocolate cake batter in the bottle! Is is amazing and the most moisturizing out of all the ones I have tried. Also A+ on their packaging. I love how they have a recipe for whatever the scent is on the bottle. Amazing! :)

Polishes -Orly - Galaxy Girl

I believe that this comes out as more of a brown/black than a purple with "shimmer" like I expected. I think younger people (or other people my age) might like it, but I don't do dark polish unless its a flat brown.

Cleansers -Ponds - Deep Cleanser Cold Cream

I had been using EVOO to remove my makeup then following with Neutrogena Grapefruit cleanser, THEN followed the moisturizer. (too many steps..lol) I would have continued doing this had I not found one product to do it all. This removes makeup (including waterproof mascara!) all by itself. I use this, swirl it around my face for a bit, wipe it off and done! Never has it bothered my (sometimes) acne prone skin. In the winter months I even take a bit more after my face is wiped off and use some as a moisturizer. I LOVE this product and will definitely buy it again!

Lip Gloss -Burt's Bees - Burts Bees Lip Shimmers
Kipper8588 10/12/2010 2:52:00 PM
The GOOD thing about this product is that it is more natural than others and it is very moisturizing and I believe it had a slight plumping effect which I like. BUT the reason that it got one lippie is for the overtaking, sickeningly minty taste and smell. It gave me a headache the SECOND I put it on. If you like STRONG mint, then this will be awesome for you!

Lipstick -MAC - Viva Glam Cyndi [DISCONTINUED]

LOVE the formula and the "soft" red color. This is an anytime lipstick and, IMHO, perfect for fall with some rosey cheeks and some nice, smokey eyes :)

Blush -MAC - Mineralize Skinfinish - Light Flush
Kipper8588 10/5/2010 12:23:00 PM
EDIT: I do NOT like this anymore as I found that it has such a stong pink & gold undertone. I HATE gold, so this wasn't for me. This really reminds me of a more amplified petticoat. I like them both, and this one does seem to have a bit more gold to it, but they are a lot alike. It is really pigmented and will last a long time. Of course, I can't buy this (except for from blog sales) bc I believe that MAC.COM no longer sells this, but I'm sure it will come out again in the future as they generally do :) But if I do need another one by that time, I will surely buy a new one.

Fragrances -Philosophy - Eternal Grace

I got this as a free gift with purchase and I really like the scent :) Not as much as baby grace, but I still like it. I got a free shower gel and a free body emulsion. I don't think I would actually ever purchase this, but it is nice.
