Lip Gloss -Cover Girl - Outlast Double LipShine

I think a lot of the people who experience problems with it don't wait long enough between applying the color and applying the gloss - you need to wait until the color has dried, otherwise it will just mix together and not have the desired effect. Anyway, I love it! The colors are great (I use Candy Apple 270 and Antique Rose 220), it lasts all day long - through eating, drinking, and kissing! It does make your lips feel kind of dry, but I MUCH prefer that to having it smudge around my lips or get in my food or on my glass. The only issue I have with it is how difficult it is to get off. When you wake up after having worn it, there is still some left on your lips - a noticeable amount.

I like this a lot. I'm a super-pale girl, but this made my skin look sun-kissed and not super-fake. I do not wear foundation, but I think I'm going to have to start using this regularly because it gives me the coloring I want without the super "made up" effect. It also moisturized my skin well.

Conditioner -L'Oreal - Vive Pro Smooth Intense for Fine Hair

I like how it smells, and it makes my hair glossy for a day, but if I use it more than twice in a row my hair gets obnoxiously greasy. It just builds up in my hair. It's nice, but definitely not my go-to.

Fragrances -Lancome - Tresor In Love

I love this fragrance! I think it could work well for a woman of any age and it makes me feel very sophisticated when I wear it. Like I've found with the other Tresor fragrances, it's staying power is not great. However, if you spritz a bit in your hair it lasts for quite a while. The scent is definitely romantic.

Fragrances -Lancome - Tresor midnight rose

I love the packaging of the Tresor fragrances. This one seems a little more youthful than the others to me, and it is a little more strong as well. It doesn't last too long on my skin, which is a shame because the smell is lovely, but I find that if I spray it in my hair I can smell it all day or evening! I usually wear this when I want to be a little more flirty.

Shampoo -Clairol - Herbal Essences "Tousle Me Softly" Shampoo

First of all, the smell is fabulous. It also has staying power - with most shampoos I've tried, I can't smell it in my hair after a few hours. I have naturally wavy hair that gets super frizzy. This shampoo seems to preserve and slightly enhance the waves, while also making the frizz more manageable. I love it!

Gels/Soaps -Caress - Sheer Twilight

I adore it. The smell is intoxicating, and it lasts, which is nice. You can also get a good lather going with just a little bit. I alternate between this and Caress Evenly Gorgeous.
