Nails -Unlisted Brand - Duri-Rejuvacote
maureen2 8/25/2010 8:44:00 PM
After using this product for 6 years I have decided to give it a review! I first began using this after having my acrylics soaked off. My nails were so thin and sore, peeling and short. After 2 days of letting my nails breathe I bought Rejuvacote after seeing it in a magazine. Within a month my nails were almost completely turned around! After 3 months they were 100% better - strong and healthy. At first I applied every day then removed once it got too thick, left my nails bare for a day then reapplied. Now for maintenance I apply once a week. Whenever I get compliments on my nails I recommend Rejuvacote. It's amazing!!!

Conditioner -Phyto - Phytosésame express hydrating Conditioner with Sesame Oil
maureen2 8/4/2010 9:32:00 PM
Love, love, love this conditioner! It does have an unusual smell to it, but it's not offensive. The texture is thick so I take 2 pumps and rub it down in my hands before applying to my shoulder length hair. Then I comb through and leave in for 2 mins then rinse. My hair is smooth, shiny and soft. I find this conditioner to be hydrating but lightweight enough to not weigh down my hair. Worth every penny!

Treatments -Phyto - Phytopolleine Universal Elixir- Scalp Stimulant
maureen2 7/5/2010 2:26:00 PM
I use this once a week to help keep my scalp in good condition. It helps regulate the scalp's ecosystem so whether your scalp is dry, oily, etc. it will work. I found this helped me when my hair was falling out. It works to stimulate and leads to better growth. I sleep with it on and love the smell and tingle.

Conditioner -Phyto - Phytojoba - Intense Hydrating Mask
maureen2 7/5/2010 2:24:00 PM
Can be used as a conditioner or a mask! I have used both ways and love it. It is especially nice after my hair has been dried out from swimming or the sun. Helps detangle and never weighs my hair down.

This is a great shampoo for every day use. It hydrates my hair just enough and leaves it smooth and shiny. I follow with Phytojoba mask and my hair is looking good.

Shampoo -Phyto - phytodensium
maureen2 7/4/2010 3:13:00 PM
I use this shampoo pretty frequently, though sometimes alternating with other Phyto shampoos. The Phytodensium makes my hair thicker and fuller but unlike any other shampoo I have ever used. It oftens and adds shine, thanks to the Omega fatty acids present in the formulation, and gives my hair a much needed oomph! I use one capful then rinse and shampoo a second time, leaving the lather on for 2 mins. Then I rinse and apply Phytodensium mask. My hair looks great!

Treatments -Phyto - Phytonectar
maureen2 7/4/2010 3:09:00 PM
One of my HG products! I flat iron every day in the summer and needed something to repair all the damage. I tried this on the recommendation of a friend. You use this on dirty hair b/c you will need to shampoo afterwards. I section my hair into 4 ponytails and apply Phytonectar to the ends. I coat the ends then work whatever is left on my hands to the top of my head. After leaving in for at least half an hour, sometimes I sleep in it, I rinser then shampoo and condition as usual. I have noticed my hair doesn't seem as damaged and has more shine, less split ends and feels softer after using. A few important things to note: *Do not apply to scalp, *Don't overuse! I use this twice a month and that's all I need. I always shampoo and condition with Phytojoba following this treatment. As an added bonus, Phytonectar smells great!

Stumbled upon this lovely sunscreen the other day in Sephora. Only $12 for a travel tube so I thought I'd give it a go. Here's the deal: What it does: With a PA++ international rating for sun protection, Supergoop! SPF 30 is ideal for all skin types, 6 months of age and up. Through the use of Parsol 1789 (Avobenzone) and Parsol SLX, Supergoop!

Also contains no Parabens, Sulfates, Synthetic Fragrances, Synthetic Dyes, Petro-Chemicals, Phthalates or GMOs. It absorbed well, left no white residue, didn't interfere with my makeup and NO BLEMISHES! Try it, girls, you won't be disappointed!

Moisturizers -Kate Somerville - Oil Free Moisturizer
maureen2 6/2/2010 6:42:00 PM
Oil-free moisturizers never seem to be just right. Some feel too greasy (Murad) while others feel too light (Boscia). Kate Somerville's is just right. It is lightweight but definitely hydrates and dries to a smooth, almost powdery feel. At $65 it isn't outrageously priced, however, the packaging can be a little annoying.

Treatments -Kate Somerville - Exfolikate
maureen2 6/2/2010 6:39:00 PM
I was afraid of this product for so long, thinking it would be too harsh for my skin. A friend of mine got one from work and gave it to me so I gave it a whirl. I love! After cleansing I shake the water off my face and apply Exfolikate to damp skin. I gently smooth it over my skin then leave it on for about a minute. Upon rinsing my skin is as smooth as a baby's butt. So glad I tried this!

Moisturizers -Kate Somerville - Total Vitamin
maureen2 4/8/2010 6:55:00 AM
My skin can be sensitive to Vitamin C and I worried this serum would irritate it, but so far no problems. I use this every morning and my skin drinks it up. My skin looks bright and clear, best thing is no breakouts from this product! Also, very affordable for a Vit C serum.

Cleansers -Kate Somerville - Gentle Daily Wash
maureen2 4/8/2010 6:47:00 AM
I switched over to KS products about 6 weeks ago and love the line. I hat the Gentle Wash in the morning, love the smell and how it lathers up so nice! It really cleans my skin but doesn't dry me out. I wish it had a flip cap, though, since a bit of wash always comes out when you twist the cap closed.

Shampoo -Rusk - Full
maureen2 2/14/2010 11:39:00 PM
I bought this and the matching conditioner when Ulta was having a sale. I will admit, I bought it because of how good it smells. I found the shampoo gave my hair some nice bounce and body, didn't dry out my hair, and left it smelling great. I really only use this when I have an important event and need especially sexy full hair. Most days I use color treated shampoo and conditioner (Rusk Pure).

Styling Products -GHD - Miracle Mist Daily Conditioning Spray
maureen2 2/11/2010 11:59:00 PM
I use this as a detangler to smooth out any knots at the top of my head. A few spritzes on damp hair, comb through and my hair is tangle free. It doesn't weigh my hair down at all.
