Fusion Beauty Infatuation Liquid Shine Multi-Action Lip Fattener
Excellent long lasting lip gloss, not sure about the plumping aspect, however
I applied it directly after dinner last night and didn’t need a reapplication for four hours, which is impressive when it comes to lipgloss and I. We just don’t normally get along. It’s not heavily scented, thank goodness, and it doesn’t have a ridiculously sweet flavor. That being said, I could definitely taste SOMETHING, but it wasn’t unpleasant at all.

I received this from BzzAgent, and noticed that it had the same tube and brush as my beloved, yet discontinued, 2000 Calorie Extreme Lash Plumper by Max Factor. So I pulled it out, and did a side by side comparison, and the formula is just as amazing. This layers well, builds fantastic volume, and doesn't leave you with raccoon eyes at the end of the day. Fabulous formula for the price point.

I received this from BzzAgent, and am duly impressed. Even though I have oily skin, this anti-aging foundation went on smoothly and didn't look as if I had tons of cream foundation on. Wears nicely, although if you're oily, you'll find yourself blotting earlier than usual. Overall, it's an excellent value.

I received this from BzzAgent, and have to say, it might be one of the best Cover Girl products I have ever tried. The blush is nicely pigmented, and there is a generous amount of product - so much that you won't need to replace it very often. The anti-aging addition is nice as well, especially now that I'm old enough to need it!

I received this from BzzAgent, and was surprised to see that it worked really well, even with my oily skin. The tone of the product seemed to work well with my skin color to really cover up my dark circles, which I wake up with every day, due to my allergies.

I expect a shampoo of this quality to cost quite a deal more. Don't let it be said that mass market and drugstore lines aren't some of the best products out there, because Pantene never disappoints. Has done a remarkable job not only keeping my hair from breaking, but reducing frizz too - a nice side benefit!

When the sales assistant at Trade Secret recommended this to me, I had no idea it would be lifechanging. I really should go back and give her a big thank you for helping me to keep my hair in amazing condition. I am somewhat of a hair fanatic - I pamper it and abuse it. I demand a lot out of it, yet I try and give it everything it needs. The Redkin Real Control Intense Renewal Super Moisturizing Mask has become a staple in my beauty routine, and if it is ever discontinued, I don't know what I will do. Once a week, I give myself a good shampooing with a clarifying shampoo and slather this on. I leave it on for anywhere from five to fifteen minutes, depending on how bad off my hair is, and rinse out. I am almost instantly rewarded with soft, manageable hair that feels absolutely amazing. Until I abuse it for another week, and then we go through it all again. This is well worth the $16 I paid for it. In fact, I would pay much more.

Pantene Pro-V Restore Beautiful Lengths Shine Enhance Conditioner
Moving past the marketing materials for this...
Regardless of what the company says about the product, this is a darn good hair repair conditioner. Sometimes the best you can ask for is no further damage, and this delivers that and more. My hair felt considerably more conditioned and easier to work with, and my hair is notorious for being difficult. Do I have proof that it "repaired" my hair? No. But it sure made it feel magnificent.

in a big way. This hairspray is strong, holds well, and might even remind me a bit of my Aqua Net Extra Hold days in 9th grade. While I don't use it in quite the same way, I can count on this spray to hold my do in place through a night of dancing, a long day running around at work, and any place where I feel an elaborate updo is necessary. This is for hair that is done - not for natural styles.

I made the switch recently to black with blue highlights at my salon. Then the recession kicked in, and now I'm trying to color it less at the salon and more at home. Feria is the one brand I've tried that actually has beautiful, noticable blue highlights. It's really hard to find a good blue-black! Color is true, lasts forever, and does an excellent job of covering gray (I'm well over 40% gray). I would recommend Feria to anyone looking to color their hair a vibrant shade. Perhaps not for those who are a bit timid with their color.
