Help can be found in this mid-weight curl-defining lotion, which consolidates smaller curls into smoother, defined sections. As hair dries, a wheat protein/aloe mix contracts to hold cur...More |

Aveda Smooth Infusion Shampoo$20.00A shampoo that helps straighten hair seems like a hoax, but this one appears to work. It made blow-drying my long waves into a straight style easier, although I did use the coordinating Smooth Infusion Conditioner, which seems to be key to getting the full benefits.

Aveda Brilliant Universal Styling Creme$16.00"Universal"? Um, only if you live in a universe full of coarse-haired people. If you do, apply this thick cream to dry hair to infuse with moisture and shine via coconut, aloe and jojoba, plus a mega dose of that classic Aveda scent (people always comment -- it's that sniff-tastic).

Aveda Smooth Infusion Conditioner$20.00This claims to "smooth and soften hair up to 60 percent." We're not quite sure how to measure those results at home, but we can say when used with Smooth Infusion Shampoo it softens hair and makes creating straight styles less of a nuisance.

Aveda Petal Essence Eye Definer$12.00I generally steer clear of pencils for fear that they'll be too hard, too soft or too difficult to sharpen. But this forest management-friendly little guy gives me hope. Though the rich color isn't waterproof, it doesn't smudge or fade unless you work at it. The plastic cap isn't easily lost, as it fits snugly over the firm...More |

Aveda Lip Shine$13.50Looks like Lancôme Juicy Tube; feels like Vaseline Lip Therapy with a mild, peppermint tingle. Environmental advocates will want to hug the recycled, egg carton-like package that houses each tube of super-shiny goo.

Aveda Petal Essence Face Accents$17.00Having three blush shades to blend is great in theory, but with Aveda Petal Essence Face Accents trio, the darkest color overshadows the rest. Infused with organic lavender (minus the strong scent), the talc- and mineral oil-free formula is a tad pricey, but a great choice for sensitive skin. Color goes on strong so apply w...More |
