kurtria says "Natural looking and long lasting" about Bobbi Brown Eyeliner

kurtria — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 22:12:02 GMT

I have tried many eyeliners before (usually liquid) and while I like liquid eyeliners for a really dramatic look or nightime, I love Bobbi brown's for everyday. I have three colors, chocolate shimmer ink, black ink and cocoa mauve (ltd edition) that i just purchased from Nordstrom as part of the cocoa mauve anniversary set. I love all three colors esp. the new limited edition one because it goes with everything and is not overbearing. I also thought it would be difficult to apply, but once you get used to it, its not bad at all. This eyeliner doesnt smudge or wear off during the day. Once you apply it, it sets! Please note that I only use it on my upper lid, not my lower lid only because I am so used to an eye pencil to line the bottoms....

kurtria says "I love the scent and the way it moisturizes" about Frederic Fekkai Protein Rx Reparative Shampoo

The frederick fekkai protein rx shampoo is a great product. I have always wanted to try the fekkai product line. So a few months ago i purchased the kit that contained the rx shampoo, conditioner, and deep conditioning hair mask. The scent is so natural smelling but fragrant at the same time.... I like the consistency of the shampoo because its creamy and moisturizing. I would recommend this product....

kurtria says "Fantastic Credit Card" about Nordstrom - Nordstrom Card

The Nordstrom card is one of my favorite retail store cards. I have many different credit cards and this is definitely one of my favorites. For starters there is no annual fee, you earn nordstrom notes certificates when you have earned enough points, the customer service representatives are all very friendly and accomodating and they are liberal with their credit line. Also, at my particular Nordstrom, that is located in a mall with a parking garage, they validate parking for all Nordstrom card holders. Since Nordstrom is hands down my favorite department store, it only makes sense to have the best credit card to go with it....

kurtria says "Puts airwick and glade plug-ins to shame!" about Procter & Gamble Febreze NOTICEables

kurtria — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 21:33:53 GMT

As many glade plug-ins, airwick, renuzit, etc. that I have tried and overall not happy with, I was amazed when I tried the febreze noticeables. The name speaks for itself, because noticeable it is!!! I curently have the lavender refill in and it smells amazing!!! And you dont have to even be near it, unlike a lot of its compettitors. Febreze notieables are more expensive than the other items similar to it, but the extra couple dollars is definitely worth it. Plus there are always coupons in the P&G saver of the Sunday paper, or you can go online and they will email you an entire booklet of coupons. I recommend this product hands down over all the other electric home oil fragrances.

kurtria says "A great investment for straightening hair without a relaxer" about Chi Flat Iron

kurtria — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 21:20:55 GMT

The Chi flat iron is a great tool. While it is a little pricey, it is worth every penny. I have naturally curly hair and when I try to blow dry it straight, the blow dryer alone just doesnt cut it! I have used many flat irons in the past (the old gold plate style included) and there is no comparison.

Pros: Straightens the first time it touches the hair, and helps prevent frizz

Heats up very fast (within a minute or 2)

Cons: No temperature setting

No automatic shut-off
