Conditioner -Aussie - Moist Conditioner
rated 2 of 5
brimariemac 2/8/2013 3:38:00 PM

I am normally the type of person who doesn't care what type of shampoo or conditioner I use, and usually Aussie has really nice products. However, I can't stand this conditioner. It smells like butter mixed with coconut. It's repulsive. When I first went to put it in my hair, the smell was so overbearing that I had to wash it out and re-shampoo my hair. The smell stays on your hair all day, too. If someone I know uses it in the morning, I can still smell it in their hair late at night. I don't like it at all. I gave it a two for the benefit of the doubt, seeing as I could never actually use it because it smelled so bad.

Lip Treatments -Burt's Bees - Beeswax Lip Balm
rated 5 of 5

I really like this lip balm. I've had it for a few years, and it still works the same as it did when I first got it. It really helps my lips, even when they are extremely chapped and dry. It doesn't smell bad, either! For about 3 dollars, you are getting a really good chap stick that is going to last you for a while. The fact that it is all natural is a really big plus, too, so you know that there is nothing that will harm your lips or make the dryness worse. I recommend!

Hair Styling Tools -Remington - Wet 2 Straight
rated 1 of 5
brimariemac 2/6/2013 3:23:00 AM

THIS IS HORRIBLE FOR YOUR HAIR. DON'T USE IT. My cousin is a hairdresser, and she warns about how bad this is. It will ruin your hair, even if you use a hair protectant. It is not good to straighten your hair while it is wet, even though this product claims to be able to do so. It will damage your hair. Plus. it makes your hair look like a piece of paper after you use it. It makes it TOO straight, to the point where it's not attractive. Just get a different straightener, please.

Lip Treatments -Maybelline - Baby Lips lip balm in Pink Punch
rated 4 of 5
brimariemac 2/4/2013 10:07:00 PM

I have been wanting to try Baby Lips for a while now, and the other day, I picked one up in Pink Punch. I adore the cute packaging, too. When you put it on, it feels very nice and it makes your lips a pretty bubble gum pink color that isn't too overbearing. After about 15 minutes, though, it starts to dry out, and I find myself reapplying it often. To avoid this, I just put my EOS lip balm or some other lip balm on under it, and it seems to work fine. I still love the product and intend to get more.

Eye Shadow -Unlisted Brand - LA Colors 5 color metallic palette- 105 Chromatic
rated 5 of 5
brimariemac 2/4/2013 5:18:00 PM

I absolutely love this palette. I have had it for quite a few years, and I still use it to this very day. It is my go-to palette. The blue color is my favorite, and I use it all the time. They are very pretty colors, and don't show up too metallic-y. They give you a nice color with a little bit of shimmer. (not glitter). Also, none of the eye shadows have ever broken on me! I have kept them in my purse where they have been tossed around, and not even a little bit of breakage happened. They have stayed perfectly in tact. I love it. The color lasts a long time, too. So all-in-all, you are getting 5 very nice eye shadows, for an amazing price. I recommend it!

Styling Products -Unlisted Brand - Not Your Mother's - Beat the Heat thermal shield spray
rated 5 of 5
brimariemac 2/4/2013 4:56:00 PM

This is my favorite heat protectant, by far. It doesn't leave my hair feeling greasy or heavy, like some other protectants do. I just spray it all over my hair and then blow dry it, straighten it, or curl it! It works amazingly. My hair is not getting damaged at all, and I love it! You can't beat the price, either. Less than 5 dollars for a really good product. I would highly recommend this.

Fragrances -Elizabeth Arden - Fantasy Britney spears
rated 5 of 5
brimariemac 2/4/2013 1:25:00 AM

The first time I ever smelled this perfume, I fell in love, and I just had to have it. It has an addicting scent, and I love that. The packaging is really cute with all the rhinestones scattered all over it, as well. I have repurchased it many times, and I will continue to. If you get the chance, go into your local Macy's or drug store, and smell it. You won't regret it! It has very good lasting power and I hope you like it as much as I do.

Mascara -Maybelline - Volum' Express The Mega Plush Waterproof
rated 5 of 5
brimariemac 2/4/2013 1:18:00 AM

I just recently picked up this mascara, so I could try it out, and I have to say, I love it. It makes my lashes look great. I am very picky with my mascara wands, but I absolutely love this one. It is thick and applies the mascara amazingly. I must say, the blue and purple packaging is really cute, too. It stays on all day, and I don't find myself having to reapply it or touch it up. It doesn't make my lashes look clumpy, either. If you have been thinking about trying this product out, or on the lookout for a new mascara, definitely give it a try!

Lipstick -Cover Girl - Outlast all-day lipcolor
rated 5 of 5
brimariemac 2/4/2013 1:08:00 AM

I am IN LOVE with this product!! I have it in Ever Red-dy, and it is the perfect red lip product! It doesn't transfer, it has great lasting power, and you don't even have to use a lip liner! Also, if your lips start to feel dry during the day, all you have to do is apply the moisturizing topcoat that comes with it, and you're ready to go! I can not explain how thankful I am that this product exists. I love red lipstick, but I could never find one that didn't bleed, that I didn't need a lip liner for, and that didn't transfer, but this product is perfect. I will definitely be repurchasing this in the future. I might even stock up on it. I love it that much. I very highly recommend this product if you are looking for the perfect lip color that will stay on for a long time and will not transfer. I even slept overnight with it on, and when I woke up, it was still on my lips and nowhere on the pillowcase or sheets. I love love love this product. My favorite lip color product out there.

Eyeliner -Maybelline - Ultra Liner Waterproof
rated 5 of 5
brimariemac 2/4/2013 12:08:00 AM

I love this eyeliner so much! I am in no way, shape, or form good at putting on liquid eyeliner, but this one is so easy to apply! I received it as a gift, and I am planning on repurchasing it after I run out. I love the formula, the applicator, and the way it looks when applied. It doesn't take a long time to dry on your lids, like some liquid eyeliners do. I highly recommend trying it out.

Eyeliner -Unlisted Brand - NYC waterproof eyeliner pencil
rated 5 of 5
brimariemac 2/3/2013 11:31:00 PM

This is my all-time favorite eyeliner. I have it in the color 937 Teal. It has very good staying power, and I do not find myself having to reapply it. I only use teal eyeliner, and this is at the top of my list for favorite eyeliners. I love the formula, and it feels very smooth going on. I would absolutely recommend giving it a try, even in other colors!

Foundations -Maybelline - Dream Matte Mousse
rated 4 of 5
brimariemac 2/3/2013 11:26:00 PM

I have been using this product for a couple of years, and it is my favorite foundation. I love the fact that it is a mousse, and I think applying it is very easy. I get some product onto my hand, and put it all over my face. That's it, and I love it! Even though the price is a little high for my tastes, I will continue to repurchase it. I am not the type of person who wears foundation everyday, but when I do, this is the one I use. In my opinion, they have a great assortment of shades for all skin tones. I love the glass packaging, as well. This foundation seems to last me a long time, as well, so I don't think the price is too big of a problem.

I absolutely love this mascara! This is my go-to mascara, and I will continue to repurchase it. I have been using this product for years. It is a great price, and I would highly recommend giving it a try. It makes my lashes look great, and I always compare other mascaras to this one. It has a great formula and amazing staying power. The pink and green packaging is cute, too.

Lip Treatments -eos - Lip Balm Sphere - Strawberry Sorbet
rated 4 of 5
brimariemac 2/3/2013 11:14:00 PM

I have been on the lookout for a new lip balm for quite a while, and I've had my eyes on this product for a few months. I picked one up a few weeks ago at Target, and I do not regret it at all. It is very moisturizing and feels very good on my lips. It does not have a disgusting taste like some lip products do, and smells good without having an overpowering scent. I, personally, love the packaging. It makes it very easy to find in my purse, and it is easy to hold. I used to always lose my lip balms, but I don't have that problem with this one! It probably is not the best to keep in your jeans pockets, but other that that, it is perfect! I would highly recommend picking up one of these when you get the chance to.
