Eye Shadow -L'Oreal - Infallible Eyeshadow - 05 Purple Obsession
rated 4 of 5

PRODUCT: Great product! Very high pigmented! Lasts A LONG time! Maybe 12-16 hours! COLOUR: I like the purple, but on the commercial it was much brighter and shimmery. When I actually put it on, its a bit darker. (Just like the pic above.) Still great though. It is more of a violet than a purple. I only got this because it was on sale. I think it was $ 7.00, rather than $12.50. I would buy it again...when it is on sale. I think I like the RIMMEL LONDON GLAM EYES MONO EYE SHADOW better, and its way CHEAPER. Overall, I do like it, but they need more colour selection!

Polishes -Sally Hansen - Xtreme Wear in Strobe Light
rated 4 of 5

This product is AMAZING. First of all, I'll warn you.It's a sheer polish with TONS AND TONS of pink and silver sparkles and glitters. It is NOT opaque, which what looks like on the bottle. This looks BEAU-TI-FUL! Just one coat and ur nails will sparkle like pink diamonds! I prefer two, for even more shine and more drama! But trust me, there is tons of glitter and sparkle in just one coat. It's VERY girly, so I suggest older girls/women would want something a little more sophisticated. Unless, you know, you're partying and wanna have some fun. I'm a teenage and girl, and LOVE this. Because it's sheer I recommed you but an opaque color, like a light sweet pink nail polish, and put Strobe light on top, for even more glam! (And I think it looks nicer like that.) Experiment with colors, because I think this glitter polish will look great with numerous opaque colors. ONE NEGATIVE: Because this is a glitter polish, it will chip in a few days, depending how much you use your hands (which is a lot, I bet!). It's not the polish's fault (LOL), it's because its a glitter polish. Glitter polishes are more prone to chipping. OVERALL, I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS! GOING TO BUY MORE!

Conditioner -Pantene - Curly Hair Series-Dry to Moisturized
rated 2 of 5

First off, my hair is curly, frizzy, dry and is the PERFECT target for this product line. I used both the shampoo and conditioner.When I used it (I used this a couple times, not just once), I noticed my hair was EXTRA crunchy, and felt all gross. I'm not sure how to explain-the texture of my hair was rough. BLEGH! EVEN MY AUNT WHO USED THE MEDIUM-THICK LINE SAID HER HAIR FELT THE SAME AS MINE! My hair was also heavy, and weighed my hair down. I bet that if I chose to contine with this product any longer, I would get lots of build-up on my hair. Plus, my hair was still frizzy...it had no positive effects on my hair whatsoever! Another thing is that both Pantene shampoo and conditioner are FULL of harmful SILICONES that damage curly hair over time. IT IS BAD FOR YOUR HAIR. But it's not just Pantene, many hair products have silicones. If your a girl with a curl, avoid silicones. As for the positive, it did smell good. It smells like the other old pantene conditioners and shampoos. But I still felt and smelt a "chemically" sort of smell, which you know off the bat that it's bad for your hair. Overall, I HATE this product, threw out both 3/4 full bottles, and would never buy this again or ever recomend it to anyone. I was very disapointed. I usually like Pantene products.

Lip Gloss -Rimmel - Vinyl Stars
rated 4 of 5

I like this product. It's very sparkly, **glittery**, and diva-like. It's a little too dramatic for an everyday thing (but I wore it everyday! :D). It's cute and girly. It gives off a hint of color, but for the most part it's sheer. Yet, I like how it's gives off the right amount of color to my lips. I get a ton of compliments-I got one from my teacher too! Basically, I like how it looks. I think it depends on the color you pick. A nude, peachy color can be everyday and a dramatic hot pink can be for night outs. It tastes great too! It tastes kinda like a fruity-berry kind a thing. It just tastes so good on my lips. Which surprises me, because not all Rimmel glosses taste this good-most taste horrid! Some say it's too thin, but I think it's the perfect consistency. It's not watery at all! The lasting power is not very long though. You would have to re-apply after about an hour-hour & 1/2. And of course you would have to re-apply after you eat and such. Overall, I like this mostly because of the great look and delicious taste.

Styling Products -Pantene - Curl Defining Scrunching Mousse
rated 4 of 5

Before you have to read this and go through the details, I'll tell you right now what I think about this product: I like it. Now, I have very frizzy hair. It's very frizzy and curly. I have medium curls, they're not tight. So when I use this product, (and I use a good amount-4-5 golf balls) my hair looks fantastic. My curls are defined, and frizz is eliminated! It looks like a professional did it! I get compliments all the time. Sometimes, I get asked, "Is that natural?Cause it's so pretty!" My curls are defined, and frizz free. But keep in mind that my hair is already curly, just frizzy. How does my hair feel? Well, as it dries, it feels the teeny weeniest micro smallest hard. But when my hair completely dries (I let my hair air-dry, it's better if you want more defined curls) it's soft, and flexible, and has natural movement. And the smell? It's great! It smells so nice! I I don't know what else to say to that besides, yeah, I get compliments about that too. My friends would randomly comment on how good my hair smells. :) I would buy this product again.
