Hair Styling Tools -Unlisted Brand - T-Studio Hot Rollers
rated 3 of 5

Although these rollers are made well, and I love the velvety feel of them, I've been having problems with the clips. Where the edge of the clip touches my hair (near the scalp) leaves a huge crease in my hair when I take them out. Anyone else have this problem?

Skincare - Body -Unlisted Brand - Monoi de Tahiti oil
rated 1 of 5

Okay, I am SERIOUSLY disappointing with this product! I was hoping to find a scent similar to Nars Body Glow, and after reading tons of reviews, I thought this would be the product to get. No way! I just received my oil today, and no joke, it smells like a mixture of gasoline and vomit. Really, I have smelled bug repellents that are more tolerable than this crap. I'll never know if the oil moisturizes well or not because there is NO way I would ever put this disgusting smell on my skin! At first I thought it might just be me (I'm picky about scents), but after even my two year old (and this is from a kid who doesn't even realize he has a poopy diaper) responded, "EWWW, yucky mommy!" when smelling it, I knew it must be pretty darn bad! Maybe I just got one that was "off", but there's no way I would ever reorder this stuff to find out!

Skincare - Face -Clinique - 3 Step System

HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please, if you care at all about you skin, do NOT buy this product! The woman at the counter convinced me to buy the stuff, and I actually thought it was working for the first week. After a few days my skin actaully looked brighter and my pimples started to go away, but that didn't last long. Within a week my skin was a flaky mess in some places and an oil spill in others. I broke out more than I had ever imagined possible - I was horrified. When I went to return it, the woman told me to continue using it for a good month to give it a fair chance. I was suckered into keeping it, and I must say, that was the worse decision I have ever made. After a month of using it, I went back to the mall to return it once more - looking like an oozing monster - and was greeted by the same woman who graced me with a rolling pair of eyes and a comment to the effect that I "probably didn't use it right" I HATE YOU 3STEP SYSTEM!!!

Hair -Biosilk - Volumizing shampoo
rated 3 of 5

This was and "okay" volumizing shampoo with it's advantages and disadvantages. It made my hair extremely shiny and very soft, but at the same time it left it stringy and hard to style. Immediately after blowing my hair dry it did seem a bit full, but it went flat in about two hours.

Liquid -Lancome - Photogenic [DISCONTINUED]
rated 4 of 5

This is an absolutely wonderful product. The coverage is so sheer and pretty, and tiny light particules give the finished appearance a soft, dewy quality. The only problem I found was that it makes me a bit oily thoughout the day.

Shampoo -Redken - Fat Cat Shampoo
rated 4 of 5
LisaYoung 6/2/2003 7:09:00 PM

Although this is an excellent product, I have found some areas in which it is lacking. First of all, the smell is plain and very faint, second, it leaves my hair incredibly tangled and difficult to brush out. Other than those two things, it made my hair full of body, bouncy, and gave it a pretty sheen. For the most part I am very pleased with this product.

Fragrances -Marc Jacobs - Eau De Parfum

I love, love, love this fragrance! My husband and I were in the mall when I tried it on. He bent down to smell me and said, "You have to get this! I don't care how much it costs, you have to get this!" I couldn't believe it. He doesn't even like perfume! I think that the smell is just beautiful. It makes me feel so feminine and sophisticated that I think it's worth every penny!

Eye Primer -BeneFit Cosmetics - F.Y. Eye [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5

I love, love, love this product! It goes on so smooth and creamy, and keeps my eyeshadow on ALL day long. Because of the light peachy color, and the fact that it covers and blends so well, I think that it would look great even alone. I love the way it feels too. It's so thick and creamy, but dries to a soft powder. I strongly recommend this product.

Foundations -MAC - Hypereal [DISCONTINUED]

I think that this is a great product. It goes on smoothly and leaves a pretty dewy finish to my skin. I don't think that it looks too shimmery at all, it's just very fresh and natural. I had to take off one lipstick though because it tends to make me look just a bit shiny after a while. Other than that it's a wonderful foundation.

Primer/ Corrector -Smashbox - Photo Finish Primer
rated 5 of 5

I LOVE this product! Not only does it make my face feel wonderful, it also helps my foundation to blend smoothly, and keeps it lasting througout the day. I have not noticed any problems with breakouts and would recommend it to anyone. Although it is a bit pricey ($36.00 for a little less than an ounce) it lasts a long time and is worth every penny!
