Lotions/ Creams -Vaseline - Total Moisture Body Lotion - Clean Feeling with Pure Oat Extract + Stratys 3
Pieran 7/25/2012 4:36:00 PM
This is a decent moisturizer and I'd buy it again but the unusual, almost Menthol, smell clashes if you're a wearer of perfume..

Cleansers -Neutrogena - Naturals - Purifying Facial Cleanser
Pieran 6/19/2012 7:23:00 PM
Currently cleansing my face w this. I love that it cleans my pores so well without stripping my skin of moisture. I dont really need moisturizer after using it. CON: Fragrance. What's it doing in a "Natural" product?? Note to Neutrogena: Keep all the other ingredients. Lose the perfume. Then, it'll be perfect!

Summer = Fiji pedicures. Total Man-bait. Do not wear to outdoor bbqs and parties unless you're comfortable being the center of male attention wearing this nailcolor :)

Lotions/ Creams -LUSH - Sympathy for the Skin
Pieran 6/19/2012 1:57:00 PM
Like that old saying "You dont know what you had til it's gone", I didnt realize just how great this moisturizer was until I left it for others (including LUSH's Dream Cream which was somewhat lacking). Now that I realize how luxurious it makes my skin, I'm going back to it. The only Cons are It's expensive & I wish it came in a dispenser. But I admire that the company is Green so I'll swap convenience for eco-friendliness...

Treatments -Aussie - 3 Minute Miracle Deeeeep
Pieran 6/19/2012 1:46:00 PM
This is simply The Best. It's on the level of Kerastase's conditioner (except it's $50 cheaper) & has THE BEST SCENT... If purple had a smell, this would be it (Actually it smells like the flower Heliotrope) I was against drugstore conditioners until I noticed a girl w hair in the most beautiful condition I've ever seen in my life who says this is what she uses -- Now my hair, which is Black & Relaxed, has the same high gloss silky look w LOTS of swish. It's in the best condition I've had in a long time.

Deodorants -Unlisted Brand - Degree Clinical Protection
Pieran 6/19/2012 11:37:00 AM
I've been on a quest to find the perfect deodorant -- that offers protection, invisibility (ie doesnt show up white on clothes or skin) and most of all TOTALLY Unscented. Why is it so difficult to find an Unscented deodorant that doesnt have a floral or powder smell. Its as if the makers dont know the meaning of the word Unscented. Degree Clinical Strength MotionSense in "Active Clean" comes the closest so far to meeting all 3 needs; It comes out of the (many) holes of the dispenser as a white substance but ends up as an invisible layer once applied to your skin. Protects really well and wont conflict with any other scent you have going on (e.g. perfume, hair products you like your hair to be scented from, etc)...

Conditioner -Kerastase - Nutridefense
Pieran 9/1/2011 6:42:00 PM
Best conditioner money can buy IMO. Not sure if we're paying the international tarriffs for it to be sooo expensive, but in the end your hair will thank you. Nicest scent ever. Perfect in hot weather. Conditioning benefits are so great I'm at loss of words to describe just how stellar they are. Perfect product!!

Conditioner -Unlisted Brand - One 'n Only - Argan Oil Restorative Mask
Pieran 9/1/2011 6:39:00 PM
Warning others about this conditioner - I bought it bc Argan oil's reputation of condtioning hair nicely. However this brand's fragrance overwhelms and leaves a cloying scent that lingers and permeates the air around you. And unfortunately, it's conditioning benefits are lacking. There was no 'slip' as I tried to detangle. I'm beginning to realize sometimes you have to spend on a good conditioner. If you want a great condition and fresh smelling hair, just spend the money and go for Kerastase's Nutritive Defense Conditioner.

Lips -Cover Girl - Outlast Lipstain
Pieran 4/23/2011 5:21:00 PM
This could barely outlast lining half of my top lip. There's not enough product coming through. The concept is excellent but the follow-through is literally lacking. I have to press hard just to get enough color out to cover my bottom lip. The pen runs out before I can finish lining my bottom lip. Clearly needs more product development - go back to the drawing board Cover Girl execs. Until then I'm sticking w other glosses...

Shampoo -Kerastase - Bain de Force
Pieran 12/22/2008 5:01:00 PM
Bought this after reading wonderful reviews; However I found the product's smell too overpowering - as if I'd shampooed my hair with lotion and it left a greasy residue on my scalp. I will not buy again.
