Vaseline Petroleum Jelly Original

A true beauty staple

Vaseline is to your beauty cabinet what salt is to your kitchen. There are so many uses for this product. It softens skin, removes makeup, doubles as a lip gloss. I like to mix vaseline with pigmented powders to make a sheer tinted gloss--the combinations are endless. You certainly get alot of mileage out of this product!

Maybelline New York Great Lash Washable Curved Brush Mascara

Maybelline great lash

I have read for years what a great drugstore find this mascara is. I have tried to like it, but I think it is one of worst mascaras I have used. It clumps, smears and runs. I just don't get the hype. It is a great price, wish I loved it as much as others do.

Noxzema Original Deep Cleansing Cream

Classic

This is a great classic product. I use it as part of my skin care routine. It can be drying so I may not use everyday in the winter. I love the tingling feeling it gives, makes me feel like it is really working. It has a bit of a strong scent, but it does not bother me. I would prefer a squeeze tube as the big tub is a bit messy and it has potential for contamination. Overall, this is a good product that has stood the test of time.

Carmex Moisture Plus

Carmex

This is a great product, nice smooth application. Not waxy or sticky. Makes my lips feel nice and moisturized. The packaging is nice, much better than most carmex products.

Olay Quench Daily Lotion

Olay

I like this lotion. I like the shimmer and the scent. I did not find the scent too overpowering. I did find this product to be slightly sticky but not enought to stop using it. I even have a small bottle in my purse.

Revlon Diamond Lust Eye Shadow

Revlon

There are alot of Revlon products that I do not like, but they nailed it with this great eyeshadow. I bought the sparkly pink version and loved it. It gives a nice shimmer that can be worn during the day or can be played up for evening. This wears well too.

Suave Kids 2-in-1 Hair Smoothers Shampoo

Suave

Love this product for my son. It is very important to him that a product is tear-free. It is not easy to get little boys to wash up lol. This product saves time and money, which is important to a busy mom.

Aussie Moist 3 Minute Miracle Deeeeep Conditioner

Aussie

I like this conditioner. I think this is one of the best drugstore hair products out there. It is just as good as some salon brands I use. I also like the bottle, easy squeeze application works nice in the shower--no fumbling with bottles.

Dove White Beauty Bar

Dove

This one is a classic. I have always loved the smell of Dove since childhood. It seems that body washes have taken over and few use bar soaps anymore. I love body washes too, but still find room for this old favorite. I also like the fact that it can double as a facial cleanser in a pinch--I would not do that with other soaps.
