Fragrances -Coty - Truth or Dare by Madonna
chiodancrgrl23 4/29/2013 2:34:00 PM
I love this scent! It is a tuberose scent but has gourmand notes that make it sweet. It is sort of like a tuberose cinnamon roll. Smells good! I wish the lasting power was better though. I would rebuy this.

Conditioner -Alberto Vo5 - Strawberries & Cream smoothing conditioner
chiodancrgrl23 3/9/2013 10:33:00 PM
This conditioner is great for cowashing. It is runny enough to easily get the product to your roots. It isn't drying on the hair and it smells good. Highly recommended.

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Black Marshmallow
chiodancrgrl23 1/21/2013 2:04:00 PM
This is an interesting scent that is unique in the world of etailer fragrances. The marshmallow is nice and strong in this scent and the amber adds something different. I fell in love with the marshmallow in this. This scent is very long lasting as I applied it to my wrists before bed and it is still fragrant today at 1 pm. I have the perfume oil blend.

Skincare - Body -Johnson & Johnson - Baby Oil
chiodancrgrl23 3/14/2012 9:38:00 AM
I have used this on my skin and it seems to work nicely, however, I use it on my hair almost everyday. It really does seem to detangle my hair and doesn't leave it greasy unless I use too much. It also makes it feel soft and not dry like coconut oil can. I don't use baby oil (which is mainly mineral oil) on dry hair but I use it on my wet hair because it locks in moisture. This product also works well as an eye makeup remover. I like how this product can be purchased at a very cheap price.

Fragrances -Bath and Body Works - Paris Amour
chiodancrgrl23 2/23/2012 10:11:00 AM
I liked this one at first, however now when I spray it the fragrance smells a little funky/off. Not sure if anyone else has noticed this with this fragrance spray. I didn't notice this in the Paris Amour lotion.

Eyeliner -MAC - Black Funk Eye Pencil
chiodancrgrl23 2/21/2012 9:23:00 AM
I got this for free, but I would buy it. This is a very black shade of eyeliner and may be the best eyeliner I have ever used on my waterline. It glides on easily and has decent lasting power. It is better than other black eyeliners that I have used. I don't think that this is a current MAC offering, but it may come out in a limited edition collection. I would say it is much better than Smolder and better than Feline. I am reviewing it only for the waterline, but it probably smudges if used as a regular liner along the lashline since it is creamy (but not too creamy).

Fragrances -Bath and Body Works - Fine Fragrance Mist in Pink Chiffon
chiodancrgrl23 2/19/2012 2:23:00 PM
Update: This is such a great scent! It smells like crisp red fruits and cotton candy. It smells so good. This is a bright, tart scent - I really like it! Supposedly these new fine fragrance mists have less alcohol, which is good for skin but the scent throw may not be as strong. I liked this one so much that I purchased the 3 for $10 minis in just this scent.

Moisturizers -Unlisted Brand - Proclaim - Natural 7 Oil With Argan Oil
chiodancrgrl23 1/5/2012 8:45:00 PM
This stuff makes my hair so soft. I really only use it on the ends of my hair and it makes my ends feel great. The bottle will last a very long time but I felt the urge to go out to buy another - this oil is that good!

Gels/Soaps -Softsoap - Softsoap Naturals Milk & Honey Body Wash
chiodancrgrl23 12/28/2011 2:27:00 PM
I loved the smell of the body wash when it was around. This has been discontinued, but the Softsoap Milk Protein & Honey hand soap smells very close to this if not the same. I purchased a lot of the hand soaps for $1 at Dollar Tree. It is for hands, but who says you can't use it for body? Also, the Softsoap Coconut & Warm Ginger hand soap has a similar scent to this body wash, so if you can't find the Milk Protein & Honey one try that one.

Lip Gloss -Femme Couture - Lip Luster in Sahara Rose
chiodancrgrl23 11/27/2011 4:20:00 PM
Sahara Rose is a glittery lip gloss similar to a MAC Dazzleglass, but it isn't as glossy. However, this lip gloss is unique and very pretty. Sahara Rose is a sheer deep rose shade with aqua duochrome glitter througout. It reminds me of a lipgloss version of Orly Cosmic FX Galaxy Girl nail polish, however, it is more sheer on the lips and looks interesting over lipsticks. This lip gloss makes my lips appear very shiny and it has a rich vanilla scent. The applicator is a brush. The only problem I have with this gloss is due to the large amount glitter it isn't extremely moisturizing. I have bought two backups of this gloss as it is limited edition. You can buy these glosses at Sally Beauty Supply.

Lotions/ Creams -Bodycology - Vanilla Cupcake
chiodancrgrl23 11/12/2011 6:45:00 PM
This smells delicious - mainly like a fresh, buttercream icing as opposed to the whole cupcake. I purchased this at Ross for a really cheap price. It moisturizes fairly but is too thick for the pump bottle that it comes out of. Maybe my bottle is old but it would have been better in a jar given it's thick consistency. I would repurchase this product as it smells so nice.

Eye Shadow -Wet 'n' Wild - cool as cucumber
chiodancrgrl23 11/3/2011 9:40:00 AM
Two out of the three shades in this palette are really good. The highlight shade (a very pale green) is okay. The deep burgundy/cranberry shade actually shows up more deep purple on me (MAC NW20). The dark forest green is pretty. The highlight shade isn't as shimmery as the other two. Overall, these shades are fairly cool and would work well on those with cooler skintones. I would rebuy as this is a good trio. Wet n' Wild makes some really good eyeshadows at a wonderful price.

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Bathed and Infused - The Lost
chiodancrgrl23 11/2/2011 5:27:00 PM
The Lost is pretty reminiscent of BPAL Snake Oil though heavier on the cherry and lighter on the powdered sugar (not listed as a note but I got that from Snake Oil). The Lost doesn't last as long on my skin as Snake Oil does though. I get a lot of sweet cherry at first from The Lost. It is a strong sweet cherry (like cherry candy) - then the incense comes through. The scent softens after a minute or two and the cherry note has faded and melded more into the incense. I almost get a slight leather note from this - I never noticed this before - it might just be my skin chemistry tonight though. The scent dies down to a slightly sweet, non-fruity scent. To be honest, I don't get almond from this. At least not how I think of how almonds smell. The Lost is a sexy scent - good for fall and winter weather.

Pressed Powders -Ben Nye - Color Cake Foundation
chiodancrgrl23 10/31/2011 11:09:00 AM
I haven't tried this product as an all over the face foundation, but I have used it to set my undereye concealer. I apply my concealer, then my foundation, and then I apply the Color Cake onto my undereye area. I then apply my powder all over my face and over my undereye area to blend. It looks okay as far as I can tell - adds some nice extra coverage. The Color Cake applies with a matte texture. The shade I purchased is Bisque, which is about a shade or two too light for me. I didn't get to try a tester at the costume store that I purchased the Cake Foundation from. The yellow tone of Bisque works fine though since I am using it under my eyes. So far though, I am able to blend my powder in with the Cake Foundation. I would recommend this product for use as I am using, but don't know how well it works for a foundation. It seems pretty heavy coverage.
