Delightful Detangler

I love this cream. Besides the fact that it has a refreshing fragrance, this detangling cream left my hair feeling luscious. I have mildly thin hair which is also natural wavy, so it was a treat to find a hair detangler that calmed frizz but added luster without killing the waves. Surprisingly, for such a moisturizing cream, this serum isn't oily. It also doesn't kill curls, as other heavy creams do. It left my hair feeling silky and smooth, with a delicious fragrance. Overall, the best detangling cream I've ever tried. I use it daily to keep frizz and fly-aways under control.

Temporary Solution

I tried Clearasil's acne treatment cream, hoping that it would at least relieve my moderate acne. I saw a subtle change within a week of using this, and within a month my acne was almost under control. I still had breakouts here and there, but eventually it seemed like my skin had simply gotten used to it. Two months after I started using it, my acne had come back just as badly as in the beginning. It was only a temporary solution, and a bit disappointing.

Subtle Plumping

This is a gentle plumper, giving your lips a subtle boost with a nice peppermint scent and flavor. Even on chapped lips, I've found that this is such a subtle plumper that it doesn't cause burning as other plumping glosses do. This also works as a wonderful lip gloss all on its own, having a gentle pink tone that is perfect for any occasion, or a quick dab on the go. Although I haven't noticed a drastic change from using it, I have noticed subtle changes. It is a nice light conditioner as well.

Full Of Disappointment

This shampoo didn't meet my expectations, especially after hearing others rave about how wonderful it is. I have thin hair, and was hoping that this would really give it a lift. The first time I used Redken's Body Full shampoo I was disappointed. It feels watered down, smells like cheap cologne, and really made no difference at all. For the price I was very disappointed. The only good point I found was how the shampoo cleanses. It makes a good daily shampoo, but for the price this is a bit over the top. I saw more of a difference with Pantene Pro-V shampoo, or John Frieda's.

The Everyday Pampering Tool

One of the best perks of this shampoo is the fragrance. A rich, coconut and chocolate, it revives me every time I use it. I have noticed a subtle shine after using John Frieda's Shine Release Shampoo, although it wasn't a very drastic change. I have mildly thin hair, so the volume-boost was greatly appreciated. It lifted and lightened my hair, but did so without drowning me in frizz. I use this as an every other day shampoo, treating my hair to some volume and spoiling myself with the delicious fragrance. I prefer this over Redken's Body Full shampoo. John Frieda's Shine Release Shampoo cleanses without stripping your hair, and adds a lustrous feeling.

Flawless Cover!

I absolutely love CoverGirl's TruBlend makeup. I have moderate acne, and so I am very picky about what type of foundation I use. I went through four other types of foundation before finding TruBlend. The first time I used it I was really surprised at how light it feels when going on, and how it covered and gave a beautiful, flawless appearance - even in spite of my acne. It lasts quite a while too, throughout the day. For the price and the quality, I have a high opinion of CG's TruBlend. It leaves your skin feeling silky and natural, not oily as some other makeup does. The coverage is the best part. It reduced the red spots and covered the acne scars, and gave me quite a confidence boost.
