After a long and tedious search, I was able to find this product. Unfortunately, there were only 3 sticks left. I sadly came home with 1 color, which was Lollipop. It wasn't a color that I was ecstatic about but when I put it on, I was impressed. The color was decent (like a fuchsia) but what impressed me was the product. It felt like a lip balm on your lips but looked like a lipstick. The staying power was great too but of course there will have to be some reapplying through out the day. I will definitely be buying this product again.. that is if I can find other colors in stock.

Shampoo -TRESemme - Naturals Radiant Volume Shampoo
rated 4 of 5

I've been wanting to go the healthier route when it comes to my hair. I tried Organix and that just went horribly wrong. I saw this as my next experiment since I've used tresseme in the past. Too bad the product isn't 100% sls free, but at least it has lower amounts of sulphate. I really like this shampoo. Perhaps better than their regular line for volume. I will be buying this again.

Shampoo -Organix - Rejuvenating Cherry Blossom Ginseng Shampoo
rated 2 of 5

Because I have eczema on my scalp, I decided to give organic shampoo a try. This product was horrible. I would say the only good thing about it was the smell and the fact that is was organic. After using it, my hair was super tangled when wet to the point where combing it was not even an option. Its not so bad after it dries though, but still a bit tangly. The end result is very dry and straw-like hair, with a bit of frizz. I will not be buying this product again. It's a shame because it smells wonderful. I got many compliments for that.

Lipstick -L'Oreal - Infallible Lip Colour Duo
rated 3 of 5

I have this product in 3 colors: target red, thistle, and teaberry. I am happy with these colors, although it took me a lot of trial and error. I personally don't think the colors are true to their packaging and honestly, the line has a horrible selection of colors. I like the staying power of the product. As many have mentioned, it is drying. I've probably only used the product about 3 times. The first 2 times it lasted through eating and drinking, but the 3rd time it flaked off. I'm not too sure what caused it. Maybe it was because I had put on chapstick before hand? Overall, I probably would buy the product again.. maybe.

This toner is perfect for my skin type. After the first use, I saw a significant difference. Now it's 3 days later and I decided I'm never using anything else.

Lip Treatments -eos - Lip Balm Sphere - Summer Fruit

PROS: - unique packaging - great smell CONS: - the product is short and fat which makes it a bit more difficult to use than normal lip balms - it's nothing special.. works like any other lip balm out there I heard a lot about this product prior to purchasing it, so I was hoping it would live up to the hype but it didn't.

Lips -Nivea - A Kiss of Recovery SPF 6
rated 5 of 5

I used to be a firm believer in Burt's Bees until one of my friends let me try her Nivea A Kiss of Moisture (light blue). I immediately noticed the difference and made the switch. One day, Rite Aid had a sale on Nivea lip balms so I decided to give A Kiss of Recovery a try. Every since that day, I never went back to anything else. I believe that it leaves your lips softer for a longer period of time than all other lip balms I've tried, which includes but not limited to Soft Lips, Chapstick, Burt's Bees, Carmax, and Blistex.

Moisturizers -Garnier - Moisture Rescue Refreshing Gel-Cream
rated 5 of 5

Two years ago, I unfortunately developed eczema on my cheeks, which definitely has lowered my self esteem. I've tried several different moisturizers, but none of them seemed to be able to tame it. I thought hydrocortisone was going to be my only remedy, which is unfortunate because it thins out your skin with long term use. I stumbled upon this particular moisturizer in a magazine ad and decided to give it a shot. I LOVED what it did to my skin, especially for my eczema. Although it did not completely clear it up, it has certainly kept my eczema to a minimum which no other moisturizer has been able to do. I will definitely buy this product again.
