Deodorants -Unlisted Brand - Ban Invisible Solid Anti-Perspirant and Deodorant
MickiexJames 3/13/2011 6:02:00 PM
My HG deodorant is the Shower Fresh fragrance. Nothing works like Ban! I have a few alternative deodorants lying around but I always come back to this. My only real issue is that sometimes when it gets low, the rest of the block of deodorant flies right out. However, I just pick it up, throw it away and buy another one. Ban doesn't irritate my armpits after I shave either.

Skincare - Body -Unlisted Brand - Veet Hair Removal Gel Cream For Dry Skin
MickiexJames 3/13/2011 3:18:00 PM
The only depilatory that works for my legs! Over the winter I don't shave my legs, and by spring the hair is extremely long. I can't use a razor because I would probably clog up 4 just by shaving, so I use this as my starting point and then just shave from there on. It works so well that even my brothers use it for their back and necks (lol). The bottle literally lasts forever and it is a great value. My skin can handle pretty much anything short of battery acid (I'm kidding) and I get very little irritation that lasts for a few hours using this. If you know you have sensitive skin you might want to steer clear of ALL depilatories!

Misc Beauty Tools -Revlon - Eyelash curler
MickiexJames 8/29/2009 1:45:00 PM
Contrary to the other reviews here, I absolutely love this curler. I have really big eyes (and long lashes) and this curls them so nicely! A little bit of mascara, and they stay that way all day. (like my rhyme?) The price is fantastic, so I think I'm going to buy another one. I don't mind that it doesn't have grippie things, because I think it looks really simple and nice. Love love love!

Cleansers -Clean & Clear - makeup dissolving facial cleansing wipes
MickiexJames 8/27/2009 9:23:00 PM
These wipes are absolutely amazing for taking off any and ALL makeup products! One or two swipes and all your eyeshadows and liners are history. It even takes off foundation! I love these wipes and will continue to purchase them.

Cleansers -Clean & Clear - Continuous Control Acne Cleaner
MickiexJames 8/26/2009 11:36:00 AM
I'm really impressed with this cleanser. I used to get really bad acne, but with a few quick simple product changes (including adding this one into the lineup) it's barely an issue anymore. This dries up pimples like nothing else. I should say that my skin is like steel and is not sensitive, so this may be too harsh for some people.

Accessories -Unlisted Brand - Ugg slippers and boots
MickiexJames 7/8/2009 2:48:00 PM
I don't get the appeal. They're SO ugly and everybody has them. They're not waterproof for when it snows or rains, and if you wear them any other time you just look like you don't know what a weather report is. I've worn a my friend's pair so I can actually speak from experience, and there's just nothing good about them. Buy a pair of boots that are actually cute.

This body wash is fantastic. It makes me so smooth all over with a subtle but very nice fragrance. Is there really much more you can ask for?

MickiexJames 2/17/2009 1:33:00 PM
I got this spray for Christmas from a friend. It smells wonderful! The only thing is, it doesn't last all that long. I love the scent so much that along with the lotion, I bought the matching body wash!

Conditioner -Clairol - Herbal Essences None of Your Frizziness Conditioner
MickiexJames 12/19/2008 11:03:00 PM
This broke my scalp out into little zits that I could not resist picking and ended up with bloody spots & flakes. Way too heavy even for my super thick curly hair which usually finds most products way too weak. Huge thumbs down.

Conditioner -L'Oreal - Vive Pro Nutri Gloss Medium to Long Curly-Wavy
MickiexJames 12/14/2008 12:06:00 PM
I have super thick, long, very wavy/borderline curly hair and LOTS of it. Like, I'm the customer at the hair salon who takes the hairdresser 40 minutes to blowdry my hair completely. Since I made the stupidest mistake ever last year of getting super-thick bleached streaks, my hair is fried all to hell, even now. The ends are mega dry and hard to manage. I'm not saying this conditioner has magically fixed all of that, but it has been doing a very great job! This is a wonderful silicone-free conditioner that really does gloss your hair, detangles even the toughest knots in a couple of minutes of leaving it sit, and leaves it so soft & silky! The scent doesn't bother me that much, if at all. This is probably one of the best conditioners us curly-haired gals can get!

Lip Gloss -C.O. Bigelow - Mentha Lip Shine
MickiexJames 12/12/2008 10:42:00 PM
This is an amazing lipgloss! It doesn't fade quickly, the scent is amazing, and best of all I find it doesn't feather and make my chin feel oily! The tingle that this gives lips is awesome. The great thing about this is that you can put just a little on and still get the mintyness - great if you're kissing somebody who isn't a fan of messy lipgloss all over their face ;)

Eyeliner -Jane - Be Pure Mineral Gel Eyeliner
MickiexJames 11/11/2008 11:58:00 AM
This stuff is incredible! I bought this yesterday at Rite-Aid for 6 dollars. It's worth every penny! I slept with this on (oops) and it barely budged one bit. I've heard the HIP brush is stiff and not that great, but this brush is awesome! I would buy again, preferably in black instead of brown.
