I personally don't like to shampoo my hair every day because I have very fine, delicate hair and doing so dries, breaks my hair. I have tried other brands of Dry Shampoo sprays and they've actually made my hair just look ever dirtier at the roots. But I decided to give the Gosh brand a try since it was so low a price in the discounted section of Shoppers Drugmart. I tried it when I got home and it worked like a charm, made my hair feel dryer at the roots, scalp and gave my hair some volume. The only thing is that the product comes out as a white powder so after applying make sure you massage your scalp and shake out your hair lots so you don't walk around with noticeable white'ish/gray hair all day. -

So I decided to give John Frieda's new Full Repair conditioner a try this morning and it completely passed my expectations. In the past I've found their conditioners greasy but not really change the 'condition' of my hair. And since the bottom third of my hair is so damaged from stripping black off my hair in the past, I figured I would try it. In the shower the product glided on nicely and made my wet hair feel extremely soft. Which I've had other products do the same, but as soon as it would be dried it would still be fried! But right now I'm sitting here with my ends drying and they still feel really soft and healthy for the first time in a long time. Although I prefer to pay cheaper for my hair products, if you have the cash to spend and are in dire need to get your hair back on track I really recommend it. -

I found Avon's bubble bath product fantastic. In the past with my super sensitive skin other bubble bath brands made me itchy and irritated all over. But this brand doesn't irritate it at all. The only thing I found is that you have to use quite a bit to get your bath really bubbly.
But and you guys will think I'm nuts, after some researching found out that if you mix a tsp of bubble solution to 2 cups of water it is actually a safe product to use on pets! ( keep it away from eyes, mouth still though)
I use it once in a blue moon when my rabbit gets stinky and it makes her fur all clean and smell yummy without making her itchy or drying out her beautiful coat. And my Mother used it for years on her dogs and never had a problem...I know it's a bizarre use, but it works!

Love to use this product when my hair gets limp, flat when I grow it out long. Just rub it on your hands and run it through you roots when your hair is wet and you get lots of body and root lift. Without your hair feeling greasy, sticky or crunchy when it dries. I use it on myself and others when I know I want lots of volume for the finished style. -

My doctor recently recommended taking Melatonin because I was having severe sleep deprivation from recent stress and I really didn't want to be on a prescription medication. So far taking it, i have had at least 8hrs of sleep each night 4 days straight. Usually natural products have zero effect on me, So I am very thrilled this is working for me. -

Bought this product to help give my hair some body and texture this Summer without having to use the blow dryer in sweaty weather. First off, the product smells sooooo yummy, like pina colada's. But not super strong in a offensive way, very subtle and sweet. And it gave my hair lots of body, volume while making it kinky and wavy. I use to buy a very similar product by John Frieda that didn't give as much volume and turned my hair a gross orange colour and was a lot more expensive than this brand. I really recommend Marc Anthony's version since the price is so good and It works exactly like it advertises :) -

I got one of these for free in the mail and I love it! It smooths, buffs the nail so nicely it shines. So if you prefer to have your nails natural they'll look pretty. But also makes the nail primed well for a polish application as well. Really recommend it if you're all about your nails but don't want to pay constantly to go to a salon all the time. -

I have been suffering with extremely oily skin, break outs since I was about 10 years old. I have tried pretty much everything I can find and have failed miserably. But I bought this product on sale on the weekend and my skin is clearing up so beautifully! But like the other person said, peroxide is a harsh product on the skin. So I just use a regular cleanser, dry and then put this gel on my breakout spots ONLY. Don't use your hands or else when you touch towels or anything it will lighten them. So I just use a q-tip and a little product on the spots. If you put it everywhere you'll just end up with dried up, damaged skin. -

In school i was taught how to use professional hair colour and the benefits as opposed to regular drugstore brands, but after I let my student license expire. (just for hair not my make up one) And didn't want to drive an hour each time to a Sally's for hair colour each time. I decided to give the Ice cream brand that Shoppers Drug Mart carries which measures and mixes like other professional brands. I am so glad I tried it out, the dye doesn't have a strong ammonia smell and you can smell the aloe, lin seed oil. The colours are vibrant and really gentle, conditioning on your hair. I absolutely love it! I've tried their blonds, reds, brown and blacks. I have never had a bad experience with any of them.
Tip: to go darker use 10 vol emulsion peroxide, to go lighter, brighter a bit use 20 vol and for dramatic lightening use 40 volume or bleach first then deposit with 10 vol. ( Each tube has instructions..)

Absolutely love Joico's reconstructing products. From all the hair colouring, bleaching etc I have done over the years, this is the only line that helps penetrate and keep my hair healthy. I have tried a lot of other brands that claimed to be nourishing, deep penetrating of the hair cuticle and they didn't do a thing for me. I highly recommend it if you colour you hair, especially bleaching. Just brings the porosity and structure right back down before processing. Even though It's pricey for being sold at drug stores, It's completely worth it. -
