I bought this a while back, and although the bottle is pricey and looks small, it lasts forever! I'm still not done the first bottle. I initially bought it because the hairstylist would put it on my hair before straightening, and my hair always looked silky, smooth and soft. Not to mention smells great. So I bought this product and haven't been disappointed. The key is to use a very small amount. What I do is: take a pea size amount in the palm of my hand, then rub my hands together to spread the product. Apply it on my hair from the ears down to the ends. The leftover in my hands I apply very sparingly to the rest of my hair (crown to ears). This way the product doesn't weigh down my hair, but the teeny tiny tad that's on the crown is more than enough to control frizz.
Did you ladies know that this works as a body moisturizer in a cinch? Cool huh? Thought I'd add that too.

Goody Ouchless Hair Elastics

I only ever use the ouchless hair elastics. They're not too thick to detract from the style, but are thick enough to not pull my hair out, and no silver parts to catch hair either! We all lose hair enough as it is, no need to lose more over bad hair elastics. I recommend this to the ladies who want to hold onto their hair. -

This is pretty much the only body moisturizer my dad will use. He loves this stuff and thanks to him I've tried it too and I'm a huge fan as well. It's light but moisturizing, no unpleasant smells, not sticky, not too thick. Just light silky oil that leaves your skin feeling silky smooth. -

I have the worlds most chapped lips. No joke. So upon a friends recommendation I went out and bought Bio Oil vitamine E serum. I found it to have a very strong, unpleasant smell. Extremely sticky which means I'd get it all over my hair, 'cuz my hair would touch my lips and then get it smeared across my cheeks thanks to my hair. Perhaps there are better uses for this product than chapped lips, there are definitely much much better products to use for chapped lips (ahem: carmex). I've read this product to be amazing for other jobs (e.g. stretch marks) so I'm sure this is great for those purposes but it wasn't good for me. I have pretty much the whole bottle of the stuff sitting around collecting dust. -

I really like this moisturizer, and, I know sparkles shouldn't be the tipping factor, but I just love how this leaves my skin softly shimmery and sparkly! lol This is sort of why I end up using this more often than not. It's also a very good moisturizer and hydrates my dehydrated skin very well. I'd recommend this for girls. -
Vaseline Intensive Care Cocoa Radiant Lotion with Pure Cocoa Butter

My husband swears by this stuff and I gotta say, he's got the best skin I've ever seen on a guy. So the day I ran out of my favourite Crab & Eve body butter, I had no choice but to try his. And I have to admit it's actually quite good!! It has a strong scent, but it's not unpleasant at all. It's not too lotion-y, meaning it's thick enough to feel like it moisturizes but it's not so thick that it doesn't sit into the skin. All in all I'd give it a thumbs up. Definitely a good go to body moisturizer. -
The Body Shop Shea Body Butter
I'm always on the lookout for good moisturizing creams and body butters. This is definitely one of the 'good' ones. It has a pleasant smell, moisturizes without being overly thick. I'd definitely recommend this to my friends.

I have pretty dry skin so I don't tend to break out at all. However stress, weather or just-because I do sometimes get the one off pimple. And of course they always have to appear on very visible retail spot such as smack dab middle of my cheek or forehead. That's when I whip out this baby. I just dab it on the spot and wake up the next morning to have it either disappear totally or shrink so it's not so noticeable. It has the consistency of a gel, goes on very nicely and sort of hardens to a slight rubbery texture that you can peel off the next day. When I put it on the pimple, the applied area looks a bit darker than my usual skin tone. But the next morning when I peel it off, the darkness is gone.
I highly recommend this to anyone who has the one off pimple. I've already gotten my brother and husband to use it on their just-because ones and they both seem to like it fine.

I love Nair products. No fuss hair removal. Just put some onto your hairy bits, do your thing meanwhile (like washing your hair or watching tv). Be sure to not let it sit too long, and then shower. The cream will take all the hair away. I especially like using this on my arms, because my arm hair take FOREVER to grow back when I Nair it. Literally takes me months and months and unless my eyes are playing tricks on me, they grow back finer too. There's a smell but it's not too too bad, and it really does a good job. Just don't use it anywhere near your privates 'cuz that shit can burn if put in the wrong spot. Ermm..just trust me on this one.
This is potent so I would recommend doing a patch test on yourself first before lathering yourself in this stuff.
I use it all the time and highly recommend it.
