this2shallpass19 says "This is the best hair color so far!" about L'Oreal Excellence Creme Blonde Supreme

this2shallpass19 — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 16:09:47 GMT

I have been coloring my hair at home for about two years now. I have had the best success with the L'Oreal brand, so I tend to stick to their hair coloring kits. Last night I used L'Oreal Excellence Creme Blonde Supreme and had the best experience with coloring my hair at home so far.

My hair is naturally a light brown/ugly, dirty dishwater color, so I tend to dye my hair light blonde because it matches my fair complexion better. This time I bought the color "01 - Extra Light Ash Blonde" and it turned out fabulous!

A box of L'Oreal Excellence Creme Blonde Supreme includes:

Protective Pre-Color Serum
Non-Drip Creme
Color bottle
After-Color Conditioner
2 gloves

I didn't follow the directions exactly, but I did for the most part. I started out by applying the Protective Pre-Color Serum to my ends and let it sit for 2 minutes. After that, I applied the color to my roots first because this color matches the last color I used very closely (the instructions say you should...

JoeysGirl says "I finally found the one for me" about Pantene FULL AND THICK

JoeysGirl — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 15:41:14 GMT

I really recommend this to those who want great hair. I have long straight hair and have tried every type and brand shampoo there is. I have been using Pantene for a couple years now and tended to stick to the same one every time, it seemed to work OK for me. when I went shopping I seen the Pantene full and thick and decided to give this one a try, if I didn't like it I could give it to my girls. The next day at work, everyone went on and on about how good my hair looked. Instead of just being plain and straight, it had llift and volume. I love this product and will continue to use it.

Susie-34668 says "Equate do as good a job as Vaseline" about Equate Advanced Healing Lotion

Susie-34668 — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 14:37:29 GMT

Equate Advanced Healing Lotion is the generic of the Vaseline Intensive Care Lotion. It cost less than half the price, and does the job, just as well.

I tend to walk around the house with bare feet, here in Florida, and the sun dries my skin out. Therefore, I need a product that is going to go the extra mile for me. Equate have given me a thick, white, lotion, which is more like a cream, and it rubs easily into my skin.

My skin has a slight shine to it, and it isn't greasy, but feels soft and moist. There is a really big difference when I put it on one arm and not the other. I think the Vitamin E and petroleum jelly, are the key to a great combination.

The large 17.7 fluid ounce (525 ml) bottle lasts me a long time, and when it is done, I just go out and buy another one from our local Super Wal-Mart. A really great find.

Susie-34668 says "Breck Long-Lasting Hair Spray really holds well" about Breck Long-Lasting Hair Spray

Susie-34668 — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 14:18:29 GMT

Breck Long-Lasting Hair Spray was a great find for me at the Dollar Tree Store. It is a large 7 ounce net weight (198g) can, and lasts a long time.

It states on the front of the can that it is for great control that give you a flexible, touchable all-day hold. It is fast drying with Vitamins A, E, & B5 to help strengthen hair.

I have been using the Breck hair spray for a month now. I really love the feminine smell of it. After I have styled my hair I hold the can away from my hair and spray. As I have the top of my hair in curls and a French pleat at the back, I leave it to dry, and then give it another good spray.

Even though it states a flexible, touchable, spray, I use enough so that my hair does not move. The only problem I have found with Breck Long-Lasting Hair Spray is that sometimes I put too much on my fringe (bangs), and sometimes it drips down my forehead.

My hair looks shiny, and great, even in the Florida humidity. It does last all day.

flipfrog says "Helps with Ecsema" about Gold Bond Ultimate Healing Body Lotion

flipfrog — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 13:01:02 GMT

My daughter has escema and this is a wonderful product to use to help with her escema. We have tried many things over the years but nothing else seems to work.

myvantage says "The T3 saves me time and makes my hair look naturally straight." about T3 Totally Tourmaline Hair Clamping Iron

myvantage — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 04:22:09 GMT

I am always in a hurry to get to the office, but I want my hair to look nicely done to complement the fitted suits I wear to the office each day. On the spectrum representing curly hair, ranging from a head full of very tight ringlets to a mass of very loose waves, my hair falls near the middle of the spectrum with a mixture of loose to well-formed ringlets. My hair is fairly coarse, long and thick, too.

Despite these natural tendencies, I like to straighten my hair from time to time. I have straightened my hair with chemicals and spent many hours blow-drying my hair straight with various types of brushes and blow-dryer accessories. My chemically straightened or blow-dried straight hair required some smoothing over, so I have also tried many different flat irons and hair smoothing and straightening serums.

Before I used the T3, all the time spent on my hair produced dry and stiff-looking results. The T3 straightens my hair without making it look hard. The T3 makes...

jennsimm says "Made my skin worse than ever" about Proactiv Practiv Complete System

jennsimm — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 04:03:30 GMT

My skins breaks out once a month, about a week before my menstrual cycle. I bought the Proactiv kit from the infommercial. I was SO excited, and half expected to wake up looking like Vanessa Williams on her best day. The cleanser and toner felt extremely mild on my skin, no harsh tingles like a Clearasil or Stridex product. However, it did feel clean.

I used the product twice daily as instructed, even using the clarifying mask as a spot treatment on the two little red pimples I was sporting. By day 3, my two little red pimples had tripled in size and turned into HUGE white bumps. I was also starting to get white bumps along my jawline and nose. By the end of the week, I'd become the proverbial pizza face, with huge swollen white pimples all over my cheeks and jawline. I called the 800 number, and was told that my skin may be purging impurities. So I continued to use the product for another 3 weeks.

I will sum up the month I used Proactiv in one word, horrifying. I...

iammello2 says "Same as dads just less slippery" about Johnson's Buddies

iammello2 — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 02:47:31 GMT

Hello, I am a mom with two children, four and two. They absolutely love this product. For some reason they find bars of soap so facinating, but they just cant seem to keep ahold of them, this product from johnsons solves this issue. My four year old son seems to like the fact that its "just like dads" very much. I like that he can use it himself. It smells good, like most johnsons products, and lasts a long time also. I ve seen it being sold just about everywhere johnsons is wal-mart, target, etc. and its only about three dollars. Both my son and daughter have been diagnosed with excema and this soap doesnt seem to bother them in the slightest. Even the sensitive skin baby wash did, so this one gets five stars in my book, i will continue to buy it as long as they have it, stocking up is always a good idea because johnsons has a history of cancelling my favorite products, maybe im just bad luck, so if you like it i suggest you buy extra!

iammello2 says "Without a hot tools flat iron you might as well not even try." about Hot Tools Professional proffesional flat iron

iammello2 — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 02:37:46 GMT

Hi- I am a proffesional cosmetologist, AKA stylist, and i will tell you, no other flat iron works as well as the hot tools flat iron. Forget about what you read about ceramic, blah blah, they do not get hot enough or slide smoothly enough down the hair shaft, for truly straight frixx tangle free hair you need to get the hot tools brand. Also before you try to straighten, hair must be dry, really dry ladies, not just almost, and you need some sort of shine product, i prefer redkens glass, but just about anything will do. With out some sort of silicone shine product you will lose results. The shine serum will seal the hair, and help tp protect it from humidity. When you are using the serum and the iron, hair may smoke, do not worry, its the product, not the hair. When used together you will get beautiful, sleek, straight smooth frizz free hair. Also they dont break, well they do but it takes years of abuse first, great iron.

Inlandempire12 says "Chanel Platinum Egoiste" about Cartier Platinum Egoiste

Inlandempire12 — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 01:31:11 GMT

I went to Sephora store at Hollywood and Highland to try a few colognes for men. I tried about 7 fragrances that ranged from mediocre to excellent. Good Cologne will depend on the personality and the pleasantness of the smell.

Well, I tried one last fragrance called Chanel Platinum Egoiste for Men. This one was my favorite because the fragrance is very manly and has a scent that implies "sexy" man. More important was the reaction that this cologne had among others who accompanied me.

I strongly recommend this fragrance because it has a fruity fragrance that will make a man feel very good about himself with this cologne.

If you are deciding to buy a cologne, check out http://www.coolmerchandise.net

Their site has many varieties of good colognes and perfumes that will appeal to your personality.

spaldero says "Not the greatest mascara..." about CoverGirl Volume Exact Mascara

spaldero — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 22:23:40 GMT

Despite what the models on the commercials say, this Covergirl mascara is not even close to a favorite of mine. No matter how many celebrities show off their perfect eyelashes, they are obviously not wearing this mascara! I'd like to know what they are actually wearing on the commercials! I guess it sticks to the name "Volume Exact" as it does give great volume, but thats after you have to pick through the clumps in your eyelashes. Covergirl claims on the packaging that it will not clump, but thats the only thing I noticed when I used it. My biggest pet peeve is clumps!! I do like the Covergirl brand, and I will continue to use it, but I won't be buying this mascara. Another thing I noticed too is the "very black" colour that I normally buy actually looks more brown. That isn't that big of a deal, but why advertise "very black" if its brown? I wouldn't recommend this mascara to anyone unless they like "spiderey" lashes!

spice1177 says "This is a conditioner to try" about Ojon Shine and Protect Conditioner

spice1177 — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 19:41:02 GMT

I recently wrote a review on the Ojon Shine and Protect Shampoo and now I am going to review the Ojon Shine and Protect Conditioner. Like the shampoo it locks in color with a high gloss finish. It protects hair from UV damage and heat and leaves hair silky smooth and frizz-free. The conditioner has similiar ingredients to the shampoo. It has the ojon oil, mandarin orange extract, papaya extract, lime peel extract, sweet almond oil, broccoli seed oil, and vitamin E. This conditioner also smells good just like the shampoo. It is hard to explain the scent because it is not a flowery scent or anything like that. It kinda has a fruity nutty scent. I really like the ojon oil which is explained as an ancient native secret to naturally beautiful hair from Central America's Tawira tribe, known as "the people of beautiful hair." Call me crazy but I believe it! My hair does feel beautiful after using the Ojon oil shampoo and conditioner and other products.

I always use this conditioner after the...

jkt says "invigorating" about St. Ives Facial scrub

jkt — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 18:56:36 GMT

I have been using this product, St. Ives Apricot Facial Scrub for two years now. I find it to be very useful to exfoliate dead skin not just on my face, but other parts of my body as well, especially the back and chest areas. It even works well for a good foot massage. With regard to blemish and blackhead control, this works well if I use warm water first to open up my pores, then apply the scrub in a upward circular motion. I start with my forehead, then the chin area, then the t-zone. Then I rinse well with cold water to close my pores. Afterwards I apply moisturizer. Overall, this routine gives my face a fresh glow and radiance of smoother and younger looking skin. St. Ives Apricot Facial Scrub works well in the shower too as I apply it liberally onto my sponge or directly to my skin. I use it occasionally on all parts of my body, especially after a busy day. It just gives my skin a boost and invigorates it with the small particles or beads that exfoliate dead skin and removes dirt and...

nmezadiaz says "MAC Eyeshadows are the Bomb!!!!" about MAC Eye Shadow

nmezadiaz — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 17:36:17 GMT

MAC Eyeshadows are the Bomb! Great colors, great texture! Unfortunately I am allergic to some colors but that is in general. However the colors that I can use are great! They have a variety of colors and tones which makes it awesome to match with clothes! The variety of colors and textures also make it great to combine with a variety of colors. I would recommend that everyone try it. Although it is a a bit more pricer than most eyeshadows it is VERY much worth the extra money money pay. It is well worth it! Once you try it you'll NEVER go back to anything else!

spice1177 says "Want shiny, soft hair-- try this product" about Ojon Shine and Protect Shampoo

spice1177 — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 17:12:29 GMT

I stumbled across the Ojon products when I was looking for a dry shampoo. A review on that another time. :) I tried the dry shampoo and that lead me to trying a sample size of the Ojon Shine and Protect shampoo and conditioner. I'll also be writing a review about the conditioner and another Ojon product. As for the shampoo Ojon is a great product. The shampoo itself is color safe, and a high gloss cleanser. It enhances color vibrancy and restores a healthy- looking brillant shine and protects from UV and heat damage, and also leaves your hair silky smooth and frizz-free, all this according to the label on the bottom.
After using this shampoo many times I agree with all of this. I love the way this shampoo makes my hair feel. It gets so soft and I love the shine of my hair. I think the best part of this shampoo is the Ojon oil and you can get a history of this if you do an internet search. Reading about the ojon oil is what sold me to buy the samples. No other shampoo that I have ever tried...

sublimepanda says "Proactiv is not the miracle they say." about Proactiv Solution Acne Treatment

sublimepanda — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 02:18:22 GMT

I have been using Proactiv now for 8 months and it is not all they say it is. I began like they said using the 3 step process once a day and then stepped up to twice once in the morning and once at night. I found there is no way I could keep my skin not getting dried out with the twice a day so switched back to once. I will generally use it at night before going to sleep, and really so far yes it does seems to keep my skin that does not have acne looking great, but as far as where the acne is, it really doesn't cleanse any better than any other product you can buy for a lot cheaper. Be warned also with the pricing, your first set will be $19.95 for a trial size but then when they send you the full size version that will cost you $50.00. Or they will do what they did with my mom and send the full version right from the start and charge you the $50.00 saying that you are getting 2 months worth. I have for now pretty much decided I will probably be canceling. I am going to give it one more...

nicki2442 says "a great hair cream that smooths and tames flyaways" about TIGI Bed Head After Party Smoothing Cream

nicki2442 — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 02:18:20 GMT

I bought this in a double Bed Head pack along with my favorite Bed Head product: shine adrenaline mist. I love the mist and one of the stylist in a local salon talked me into just buying the double pack because it was less expensive to get both then to just buy one bottle of the adrenaline mist. She said to just use a little drop and work it into your palms and go over your hair after you are done blow-drying and/or straightening it (or whatever you do because it is for all hair types). I used it the next day and was impressed. Just a little bit goes a long way...so be careful not to use too much.
It smooths hair and tames the flyaways and also works to make it a little piece-ier. Thats the best part of this product for me because it gives my hair more definition without looking like I have any styling product in my hair. It also smells good.
I bought the double pack for $15 (on a super sale at a salon)...I think individual bottles of it go for about $15-$20 depending on where...
