Hair Removal -Unlisted Brand - Veet Spray-On Hair Removal Cream
jesstastic 10/23/2010 4:52:00 PM
I really like this product, mostly because I really hate applying hair removal creams with my fingers. With this, I could just spray it on, wait and then scrape it all off without the mess. It gets my legs nice and smooth without a razor! It actually foams and expands once you spray it on to your skin, and you can feel a cooling sensation as it does this. I kind of like it, but some might not. I'm taking a lippie off because it does make your tub, or any surface it comes into contact with, really slippery, so you have to be careful once you start spraying it. I usually put an old towel down in the tub.

Styling Products -Farouk CHI - Chi Silk Infusion
jesstastic 8/2/2010 7:14:00 PM
I read so many great reviews about it, I decided I'd bite the bullet on the high price tag. First of all, I'm not a fan of the men's cologne smell. I usually put this in my hair when it's wet and leave my hair to air dry, now I don't know if that's what I'm doing wrong but when it dries my hair is stiff and feels like straw, and it does nothing to help with detangling. Though when I do finish straigtening my hair, it is pretty soft and bouncy. But the end result hardly differs from when I use the significantly cheaper Fantasia Hair Polisher, and when I let that air dry in my hair it at least leaves it soft. I might try silk infusion again to see if a different way of using it might work better, but honestly something that costs so much should just work upon putting it in your hair. So I will not repurchase this.

Treatments -Unlisted Brand - MIZANI - H20 Intense Night-Time Treatment

The smell is way too much for me, and when I used it to seal my ends it was just greasy and took a long time to absorb. I noticed the next morning it left my hair really dry. It was too expensive and didn't deliver the desired result. I find just regular raw oils work much better than this. Will not repurchase.

Shampoo -Head and Shoulders - Smooth and Silky shampoo

This product makes my hair extremely dry, brittle and unmanageable. Even after using it with Pantene moisture renewal conditioner. It only improved my dandruff slightly.

Toners -Biore - Triple Action Astringent
jesstastic 8/22/2009 10:40:00 AM
I don't normally use a toner, but I thought I should start since my skin tone was getting uneven, and the heat and my oily face were resulting in breakouts. I saw this one and decided to try it. I've only started using it, but I use it mainly at night to help remove the remnants of my makeup and dead skin that my cleanser may not have gotten. I haven't used it in the day because it makes my face so shiny, I'm not sure if I should. I love the tingly feeling though, makes my face feel extremely cool and clean in the heat.

Masks -Queen Helene - Mud Pack Face Mask
jesstastic 8/22/2009 10:28:00 AM
I don't know if I'd call this a miracle mask, but it's the best mask I've found for the price. I use it about once every two weeks. More often if I've had a stressful week or I have a break out. It leaves my skin really soft, makes it really easy to apply my make-up afterward. I take one lippie for the fact that the consistency is weird and makes it a bit hard to apply and the smell. People in my house can literally smell me coming when I have this stuff on. If you don't think you'd mind the smell, you should try it. It's cheap so it wouldn't hurt. I'd buy it again.

Moisturizers -Biore - SkinPreservation Dual Fusion Moisturizer+SPF 30 ] [DISCONTINUED]
jesstastic 8/22/2009 10:18:00 AM
I was desperately looking for a light summer moisturizer with SPF because my face can get really oily in the heat. This is really lightweight and perfect for that. I usually don't buy moisturizers with a scent, especially SPF because it makes my make-up sponges smell funky. This one did not. I've also gotten a few comments on the fact that my skin tone has improved. This may seem really picky, but the box it came in really pissed me off. It has a little extra section in it that holds absolutely nothing. I don't know if it was to make the product look bigger or simply to waste packaging. Also, for the first few pumps, only the green was coming out of the dual nozzle. But overall, if you're looking for a summer moisturizer, this one is a keeper.

Hair Removal -Unlisted Brand - Veet In-Shower Hair Removal Cream
jesstastic 7/11/2009 11:38:00 PM
Firstly, the smell was horrible. Second, the sponge was absolute crap, I still got the cream all over my hands. Third, I left it on for the maximum amount of time being 6 minutes and my legs were still covered in hair when I washed it off. I'll stick to my Nair Peach Smooth, thanks.
