first polish that made it look like a professional pedicure

I bought this in "Pink Different" a great bright dark pink, wonderful for summer toes. This went on so smooth and shiny it looked, and my friends couldn't believe that I had done it myself. I put on a base coat, two coats of the lacquer and then a top coat. Its lasted weeks on my toes. I haven't tried the brand on my fingers yet. But really the best nail polish I have used at home, even better than some of the regular OPI colors.

verrrrry nice

I thought I needed to use B&B's Tonic shampoo because of my mild dandruff and oily scalp, but I think I might have been going in the wrong direction. This shampoo is lovely and moisturizing. It actually seems to be keeping me more flake free. I switched because I got low-lights and my stylist felt it would be less stripping. And just like its conditioner counter part (which I also use) it smells heavenly!

I'm in love with coconut!

pretty much anything that smells like coconut i love, it reminds me of summer and being on some tropical isle, BUT in addition to smelling great this is a wonderfully rich conditioner, i use it from root to tip (i have thick hair with a sometimes oily sometimes dry scalp) I use it in combination with bumble and bumble's Tonic Shampoo but every other wash I just use the conditioner, it actually lathers up a bit if you put it in and then just cup some water in your hands and rub it in to your scalp. great great great.

Favorite Mascara

I have sensitive eyes which are easily irritated. I have found this to be just the best mascara, it barely flakes and it goes on smoothly, as it gets a bit older it clumps more, but that is a great indicator that its time for a new tube! I use the black (they have a carbon black which is i think more intense) You can layer this mascara easily for a more dramatic effect, but one or two swipes imparts a nice natural look.

great color, taste, and last

I use Pepino very sparingly to impart a lovely rosy pink sheen on my lips it looks great. I'm very pale with pink under tones. It just looks great. and it lasts fairly well. I just bought another one in rubisparks and its amazing! It gives you that I've been kissing a great kisser (minus the red face). Its a great great color it perfectly cranks up my natural lip color, and while you need to reapply (not too often though), It fades really nicely

Nice product - still trying to figure out how best to use it

Still trying to figure out the perfect amount and timing for applying this product. I've been layering it over Wired by Rusk, I put the Rusk in my hair just after squeezing out excess water with a towel (not rubbing or twisting but scrunching with the towel) Then after the hair has dried a small amount i've scrunched in Brilliant. This combination seems to be working fairly well so far this summer (hot and humid) I have thick curly hair, and while it doesn't keep the curls in perfect form it does keep them more separated than other products. I often find Aveda products to have too strong a sent, and while Brilliant has the traditional Aveda sent it doesn't feel as over powering because I only use a small amount.

Lovely colors and doesn't "migrate"

I bought this pencil in two colors that i can layer over each other for subtle to dramatic effects. I got Rosemary & Thyme which is a beautiful gold/green/mossy color and I got Tarnish which is a black/Emerald color. I often have a problem with oily lids so that eye liner ends up transferring to my brow bone when i blink or migrating to the crease or corner of my eye. I found these to only migrate a tiny bit to the crease after a hot sticky new england evening. The color faded a bit but i applied it fairly lightly. The Tarnish is a great alternative to straight black or brown, I have very dark hazel eyes and very pale peachy skin so it was a great option rather than a harsh black. Highly recommend, also they have so many awesome colors you could just play with these for days!

pretty but not right for me

I found the product TOO soft, it was hard to control, or hard to use a light hand. I like very sheer washes of color, so maybe this just wasn't the right product. Its very nice for stronger colors, I would say the pigment quotient is closer to that of a lipstick than a gloss, but it does have great shine, so if you are looking for a strong color with a great texture and shine this is grat

it smells and feels great but . . .

It doesn't lather very well. I find I have to use a lot more of this product than other body washes. But it does smell and feel wonderful. But I won't buy it again.

good stuff, but can't use it alone

I have curly (big fairly lose curls) I like putting this over Wired Personality cream. It adds more hold to the combination. The smell is strong in the tube but not overpowering on your hair.
