Polishes -Wet 'n' Wild - Nail Color in Pearly White (434)
rated 4 of 5
pink_cutie 5/21/2005 3:40:00 PM

This nail polish is a pearly white colour on the bottle, pink and blue shimmer. I agree with the reviewer from below that its great over solid colour, to spice up a french manicure, or even by itself. I think it will look great with white tips as well. Overall, its a great polish,a and dirrttt cheap. It has almost a holographic feeling to it. btw, this is very close and similar to OPI's Rosy Future, but wayyyyy cheaper. definitly a steal!!

Polishes -OPI - Rosy Future
rated 3 of 5

I tested this at the salon, and it there was nothing 'rosy' about this polish at all. it was a very sheer, almost clear, with a tint of holographic blueish colour to it. the name definitley sounds deciving. there isnt anything special about this polish, and i would not purchase it. UPDATE: I found a very close drugstore nail polish!1 It is Wet n Wild 434, a pearly sheer sade that is veryyy similar to Rosy furute, and wayy cheaper. what a steal!

Treatments (Eye) -Neutrogena - Radiance Boost Eye Cream
rated 1 of 5
pink_cutie 3/18/2005 3:20:00 PM

A normal moisturizer that does nothing special, not that I expect much from neutrogena. my mom bought this originally, but gave it to me. it does not do anything it claims to do.. but BEWARE: it smells like fish. *disgusting*.. its really smells bad, but I have to finish before buying something else. stay away.

Lip Gloss -Bonne Bell - Vanilla Lip Smacker
rated 5 of 5
pink_cutie 3/13/2005 4:22:00 PM

This is my favourite lip smacker so far out of my collection. I stopped using smakcers a few years ago, but decidd to try this one cause i love yummy sweet smells. This smacker seems to be the most moisturizing compared to the others, and is thick and creamy. The smell is so delish that i apply it all day long, and i just finised it after getting it over a month ago!! fastest record for any lipsmacker! the smell isnt real vanilla, but more buttery, slightly plasticy vanilla icing. i will definitly repurchase this smacker. if youre not usually a smacker person, youve got to try this for the yummy smell, and the superior texture that beats all other smackers!!!

Polishes -Rimmel - French Manicure with Lycra and Minerals in #442 French Rose
rated 4 of 5
pink_cutie 1/10/2005 10:12:00 PM

This is a pretty polish that lasts at least a week without chipping. One coat is very sheer, almost clear with a tint of paleness. Two coats gives more of a milky touch to it. Overall, its a great product that is cheap, and wears long. i purchased it because the review from below says that it is very close if not the same as OPI's Coney Island Cotton Candy. It is a lovely shade that makes you nails look done without a lot of work. =) I would definitly buy it again!

Conditioner -Joico - Silk Result Conditioner for Thick/Coarse Hair
rated 3 of 5
pink_cutie 1/10/2005 10:08:00 PM

This does not do much to my hair at all. no silkiness,, and felt like a drugstore conditioner.. well.. maybe a tad better, but its so ordinary. The scent is alright, but again, nothing special. I would not purchase this again, and god thing i bought the travel size of this so I won't be stuck with a huge bottle. but save your money for something better.

Shampoo -Joico - Silk Result Shampoo for Thick/Coarse Hair
rated 3 of 5
pink_cutie 1/10/2005 10:06:00 PM

This shampoo is soo ordinary.. theres really nothing special about it. It doesnt even feel like a salon product AT ALL. It lathered up OKAYY.. and smelled regular. Yet it left my hair slightly tangled afterward. Good thing I bought the travel size so I won't be stuck with a ton of it. I defintly will not be purchasing again. save your money on something better.

Eye Shadow -Cover Girl - Eye Enhancers Quad - Country Woods
rated 4 of 5
pink_cutie 10/13/2004 8:10:00 PM

These four colours are not discontinued, and therefore i got them on sale for $5. They are very versetile. The light beige to highlight the brow bone, and the dark one to line the eyes, and the other two for blending and mixing in between. Although i dont look good with eyeshadow, i still love wearing these colours and playing around with them. This kit is all you need for a perfect somkey eye, thats simple and fast. oo and a thought just came to me.. this would probably make a great bronzer if you smoosh all the colours together!! even though.. i dont wear bronzers.. anyway...great prouduct. lots more pigment than maybelline, thats for sure. =>

Lips -Quo - Lip Stain
rated 4 of 5
pink_cutie 7/31/2004 8:49:00 PM

I was so excited when I saw these lipstains at Shoppers Drug Mart. I have always wanted a marker lipstain like the UD ones. They were freshly out,and looked soo tempting. The colours were very wearable, for me at least. Except for the brown colour. I purchased Pump Up The Jam. It was a nice rasberry stain. It becomes deeper as you layer it on. It does stay put for quite a while if you dont drink or eat. It does tend to fade quickly if you drink alot. I really love it, and cant wait to try the other colours as well. =>

Shampoo -Aussie - Moist Shampoo
rated 4 of 5
pink_cutie 7/25/2004 9:01:00 PM

I love this shampoo!! Its the best drugstore shampoo ive useed and its great. My hair was dull, dry and crunchy. After using this, I wokr up with silky smooth hair that was bouncy and full of life. It smells pleasently sweet like some sort of grape blend. My little sister thinks it smells like japanese bubble gum. The shampoo does look pearly white, and a little will lather up. This is the most moisturizing shampoo ive used, and I agree with the review below somewhere. I almost feel like I dont need conditioner. but..just *almost* because I have such dry and damaged hair. Its also great because its cheap!! so give it a try!! =>

I really like this product because it turned my dry crunchy ends the moisture that it needed. The smell is a nice sweet smell that I like. The condidiotner itself is alike a thick heavy cream. I woke up with silky smooth hair that was shiney and had no tangles!! a keeper! Also, its the best drugstore conditioner ive used. Its cheap so give it a try!

Hair Styling Tools -Conair - Conair Satin Finish, Instant Heat Ultra Slim Straightener, 3/4 inch
rated 2 of 5
pink_cutie 7/18/2004 9:26:00 PM

When I first got this straightener, it was awsome. Nice and small, very light, and super cheap too. It only had'ceramic coated' plates for that price thought. The first month or so using it, it heated up fast and worked well.It straightened out my thick, flippy ends ( I alraedy have straight hair) However, 6 months after purchase, it no longer heats up, and does not work. I am very dissapointed, and am going to purchase a more expensive iron. The packaging resembles another highend straightener that Ive seen, but I think Ill go for a CHI.

Polishes -OPI - Italian Love Affair
rated 3 of 5
pink_cutie 7/9/2004 1:39:00 PM

I think I should have did more research before I bought this colour. I was actualy loking for a sheer pink colour. This colour i feel is best described as 'pink pearls'. I feel like im wearing strings of pale pink pearls when I have this on. It is a fun yet glamourous colour that I love to wear!! This is my 2nd OPI nailpolish, and the price is still a little steep for me. $12 canadian for a nailpolish. But the quality is in fact superior, so it is acceptable. However, I will not repurchase because there is a ton of it, and i would rather try another colour next time. =>

Conditioner -John Frieda - Brilliant Brunette Light Reflecting Conditioner
rated 3 of 5
pink_cutie 6/17/2004 4:36:00 PM

This is a pretty good drugsore conditioner. The smell is so nice, i love it! a sweet coconutty/floral smell that livens up my hair. However, I was very dissappionted when I saw no differnence in shine whatsoever. It did however detangle my knotty hair, leaving it soft, smooth, and totally managable. The packaging is so nice too!! everytime I look at it, reminda me of sparkling 'brilliant brunets', like those gorgeous girls on the ads. It kind of like an oversized toothpaste tube, intersting for shampoo and condiditioner. It is like a heavy cream, with a lovely light, warm brown to it. I will not purchase againt hough because it did not give me the shine factor i wanted and expected.

Lip Gloss -Wet 'n' Wild - Megaflavors Gourmet - Blue Raspberry
rated 4 of 5
pink_cutie 6/2/2004 5:13:00 PM

I already have butterscotch and w'hipd in my lil collection of gourmet lipglosses. This one I chose over cherries first bescause it had more colour. Its a very shiney and moisturizing gloss that feels nice. I love the bouncy consistancy of all of them. This one has a trasparent berry tint if you layer on more, and nice subtle glitter. Its very shiney and gooey and nice. I love it! It doesnt smell like anyhting really.. it just had a little bit of plastic smell. my sister said that it DID smell like raspberry.. but i dont think so.. but it tasts grat! like all the other gourmet lipglosses!! i love it! =>
