Misc Beauty Tools -St.Tropez - Self Tan Remover
aliciasands 9/13/2004 4:15:00 PM
This is GREAT stuff, but please remember - it only removes fresh self tanners from your skin. It won't take off a developed tan. Anyway, I love this - no more gloves! Works better than soap and water, too - I haven't had orange palms once while using it. I took off one lippie, though, because the pump can be somewhat strange & it gets clogged easily. I've still repurchased it three or four times, though!

Self Tanners -SUN Laboratories - Dark Sunsation Lotion
aliciasands 9/2/2004 11:44:00 PM
Great stuff!! Such a dark color, I love all SUN Labs products! By the way - this stuff is way less expensive at StrictlySunless.com - $23 for the 8 oz bottle - and they have little sample packages you can buy to try it out!

Probably one of the best drugstore lines for very dry hair. Smells great, too!

Self Tanners -Fake Bake - Self-Tanning Lotion
aliciasands 8/24/2004 2:37:00 AM
Wow - I can't believe I haven't reviewed this yet. Holy Grail material - I've gone through about four bottles. Virtually impossible to streak, even though the lotion is thick (it looks exactly like chocolate pudding). Rose scented, too!

Fragrances -Victoria's Secret - Dream Angels Halo
aliciasands 6/14/2004 10:54:00 PM
Halo never fails to give me a headache. It's truly the most noxious perfume that I have ever encountered. I worked at VS for a loooong time, and when the Dream Angels scents were introduced there were far fewer perfumes than now. Anyway, customers would get so spray happy with the Halo.... Ugh - instant headache. Even the other SA's who defended Halo at first found it nauseating after a few months.

Ugh. Very mature, heady scent that I personally hate, but it has great staying power. Very strong.

Gels/Soaps -LUSH - Sandstone soap

I love this!!! I really like the lemon scent - not overpowering but very fresh. The sand is so much fun and evenly exfoliates.

Powders -LUSH - Candy Fluff Dusting Powder
aliciasands 6/9/2004 12:35:00 AM
I love this. Of course, the packaging sucks, and it's impossible to close, but I love it anyway. It smells like my favorites Rock Star and Creamy Candy bath. Since I'm not a huge dusting powder girl, I use it in my sheets, hair, etc. The scent holds longer in my hair and sheets than it does on my body anyway. All around great, long lasting product.

Scrubs -LUSH - Ocean Salt
aliciasands 6/9/2004 12:33:00 AM
GREAT scrub. I got my BF to use it (and a couple other LUSH products) simply because of the black packaging. Oh, that and the alcohol in it. Anyway, this is a very nice salt scrub. It tingles and exfoliates very well. I use it 2x a week before self tanning. Great stuff!

Scrubs -Totally Juicy - Grapefruit Sugar Scrub
aliciasands 6/5/2004 2:55:00 AM
LOVE this and it's SO CHEAP!!! I love sugar scrubs because they exfoliate well and aren't messy or oily. I've used a very expensive sugar scrub for years now, and although this is a little more diluted than my favorite, it's such a bargin!!! Definitely try it - works great, cute hot pink squeeze tube, and so inexpensive!

Conditioner -Pantene - Full & Healthy Lightweight Conditioning Foam Leave In
aliciasands 5/29/2004 3:59:00 AM
This stuff is bad, bad, bad. I got a promotional basket from Procter and Gamble, and this was included in it. It's a leave in foam conditioner that claims to repair styling damage. I found the foam hard to distribute in my hair. While it was air drying, my hair felt sticky and crunchy - like I used way too much gel. When I tried to comb my almost dried hair later, it was impossibly tangly. I find this product very drying, there's too much alcohol in it to be moisturizing in any way. Stay far far away from this stuff.

Lotions/ Creams -Neutrogena - After-sun Treatment
aliciasands 5/28/2004 12:01:00 AM
I had a very mild sunburn on my shoulders, and used this to treat it instead of aloe vera. It's cooling, and it makes your skin very soft and a little less tender. I'm not sure if actually helped my skin heal faster, but it's definitely less sticky and drying than the regular Walgreen's brand aloe vera gel I normally use.

Self Tanners -Fake Bake - Mousse
aliciasands 5/19/2004 4:49:00 AM
This product's long name is Instant Chocolate Mousse. It has the same rose-y scent as the FB lotion, and the similar dark brown/greenish/gray color guide (which is probably what washed off the previous reviewer). It provides very natural brownish color, but it's not exactly dark. It also fades very quickly - ie: 2 days. The mousse is probably best for lighter complexions, but it is easy to use and smells good, with no fake orange tinge.

Self Tanners -SUN Laboratories - Foaming Ultra Dark
aliciasands 5/19/2004 4:02:00 AM
MY HG TANNING FOAM. Provides great dark brown color that lasts a long time. Dries quickly, and it's so easy to rub in. I've never streaked with this, never looked orange, and it fades very naturally - no lizard skin. Love love love it.
