I used this product when I had short hair and spent extended periods of time outside, so no styling. Obviously, as it is a male-targeted product, it has not been designed to be used with too many other products or for coloured hair. It will strip coloured hair.
My boyfriend now uses this shampoo, and it is effective as a dandruff treatment. It does not dry him out too much, thanks to the combined conditioner in it, and it does put some moisture back into his hair.
I think being a trendy name brand, it is a little pricey for what it really is, but it works well so I couldn't bring myself to give it fewer stars for that.

This is one of my favourite body washes for use during the winter, as I have dry and sensitive skin.
It feels significantly less harsh on my skin than regular soap body washes, and I like the way it makes my skin feel after I use it. It still has a nice lather, and it really is unscented which is nice for those of us who have sensitivities to smell.
I also use it instead of shaving cream on my legs, and I feel that it does a fantastic job for that. My legs are always smooth and moisturised when I use it.
It is a great valued product and I recommend it to family and friends.

This, like the shampoo from the same line, is an alright product.
It is nothing special, but it does moisturize and provide relief from frizz.
It is a heavy conditioner and may be too much for people with thin and fine hair. People with thick hair will likely do much better with it.
I would only really buy this product again if it were on sale for a very good price. I have had better luck with other L'Oreal shampoos and conditioners.

This is a pretty decent shampoo for the price. It is not my favourite of all the L'Oreal lines, but it still worked well.
This one has a slightly more chemical-y smell than most L'Oreal shampoos, and that was a little bit offputting.
My only real problem with this shampoo is that it is one of those trendy ones where they introduce a new shape, colour scheme, etc and make a lot of big claims that never really turn out like they said they would.
There is nothing wrong with this shampoo, it hasn't hurt my hair and it does keep it moisturised.
It is a shampoo that I would buy again, if it were on sale.

I bought this dry shampoo after running out of a salon brand that I received as a sample. I loved the idea of dry shampoo but I did NOT like the price of the salon brand.
After spending a considerable amount of time in the hair aisle searching for my next best option, I stumbled across the small section of Finesse. When I read the price tag, I thought it had to be too good to be true. I purchased it anyways because for less than $3 I couldn't think of a reason not to try it.
After using it and testing it out on my thin, flat hair, I would say this is worth so much more than $3. It works better than the salon brand I was gifted, it's in a bigger bottle and it's less than half the price. I am so surprised and pleased. It gave my hair volume, made it look significantly less oily and after use, my hair is a nice manageable texture.
I will be repurchasing this spray, and testing out their other products as well.

This blush has a really nice colour to it, and it really buildable. The first layer goes on quite sheer, which is nice if you are trying for a softer and less dramatic look. It can also become quite a bit more dramatic if you take the time to add an additional layer or two.
It is quite a shimmery blush, which means it doesn't do a very natural look, but it is still a nice colour for those less dramatic looks. It would also work quite well as a highlight.
I really like that it is not ALL pink, because I find it can be too harsh and fake looking to get a fully pink blush. The appearance of the blush is really cute, and I like having it in my bag.
I do not particularly like the brush that comes with it, I almost feel it's a bit wasteful because I would never use that brush and every time you buy the blush you're getting another one that you'll soon throw out.

I found a great sale on this product and purchased it despite it being a different brand than what I have always used. It is a very effective mouthwash that leaves a very clean feeling in your mouth.
It does not have a horrible aftertaste because it is alcohol free. I did find that it left a strange taste in my mouth, but I cannot quite put my finger on it. It is not strong enough that I would discontinue use because of it, it is just something I'm not yet used to.
I am happy with how effective this mouthwash is, as my dental health is important to me. I would consider purchasing this product again, but would probably wait for another sale.

This is a great developed for use in hair colouring. I would not use this for attempting to bleach hair beyond one or two shades of the current colour, but for slight lightening or for darker colour depositing this is a great product.
It is a good consistency, not too thick but not so thin that it will run all over the place. I really appreciate that the bottle has a measurement for how many mL you have poured from the bottle. It makes it very convenient to use.
The price is pretty good for a branded product, but could have slightly better value. For people who only need single use amount of developer and want to shop only at a local drug store, I recommend this particular product.

This is a great value aloe vera gel product. I was able to purchase this for less than I was expecting to pay for a similar bottle in another brand.
It works as expected, and was able to soothe both heavy sunburn and many bug bites. It stopped both pain and itching. I also appreciate that this particular product is clear and not dyed green like some other brands. It is great for sensitive skin. It does not dry sticky or greasy on the skin either.
It also worked well for itch relief on a dog.

This is the little brother product to got2B's Ultra Glued gel. It does not quite have the same strength as the ultra glued version, but it is still a spectacular product.
This product is more for day to day use, while the stronger one is really only needed if you're going to be using the gel for on stage or for very long days where you need hold over 12 hours. This product held my hair in place easily for full day applications, including through exercise, although I was not pushing it or purposely trying to test it.
It is pretty sticky, so wash your hands after use! Also, do not use over semi-permanent dyed hair as it will bleed out and probably disappoint you.
For average uses, I recommend this product.
