To be perfectly honest, I could care less about this product. If you are looking for a heat protectant, quality is key, and I do not believe that any product found at a pharmacy will do the job. The conditioning shake smells great, and was easy to apply, but at the end of the day, I would much prefer a product that thoroughly coats each strand (like an oil). When using heated, styling tools, it is just not worth the risk.

This product smells as good as the shampoo, but its effectiveness is GREATER. Let me start off by saying that I never blow dry my thick, coarse, and dry hair, but I feel the need to always use a handful of conditioner to soften my DO!
This is the first conditioner that I have used that I did not require half the bottle per wash. A small amount was all i needed to coat my entire head, and the product rinsed out nicely. The price is right, the scent is right, and the quality is right. Pantene nailed it this time with this product!

First of all, the smell is amazing. It is a floral scent that does not make me want to gag like some overly scented products. The shampoo produces a nice lather, and the product really lives up to its name -- it does not weigh down your hair. I wash my hair about once every 5 days, and the product did not make my hair limp at all during that time. There was no residue when I rinsed, and I did not require much product to get the work done!

Not a fan of this product. The smell is nice, but overall the product is not effective. When you step on the pedal, the product sprays all over the place (and before you ask, yes it was installed properly--I even tried tilting it down to prevent splash-up). It also does not actually clean your toilet! It disinfects what it visible to human the eye on a daily basis, but when you go to do a thorough cleaning of your toilet (I am a germaphobe so I do this often) it does not get those hard to reach areas that definitely requires a toilet brush. The regular price of this product is $10 for the start-up kit and $5 for subsequent cans. I do not recommend this product because after you spent all of that money, you still need to go purchase another cleaner to get the job done properly. -

This scone is a wonderful piece of heaven. While most scones tend to be have a very dry texture, Starbucks scones are very moist and they don't crumble when you break them apart. The lemon cranberry scone is one of my favourites (my all-time favourite is the pumpkin scone, but that one is usually seasonal). It is coated in a thin icing, while the scone itself has a lemon base with chunks of cranberry baked inside. The scone is approx. $2.50 at most Starbucks locations and is about the size of an open hand (fingers included)--unless you have basketball player hands (then maybe reduce the size to 2/3). So next time you find yourself at one of those green coffee shops, ask the barista for a lemon cranberry scone with your latte, espresso, or whatever your drink of choice may be. -

I wear it so I must like it right? This is not my favourite liquid makeup, but CoverGirl has me sold mainly due to the price. For those of you that coupon, if you play your cards right, this makeup usually costs at most $1. It doesn't clog pores, and it matches my skin tone perfectly. I do, however find that it can be like a bottle of heinz ketchup--THE STUFF NEVER WANTS TO COME OUT! I use this makeup combined with the CoverGirl powder for a perfect finish, but it works well on its own too. I do recommend this product, but I also combine it with other makeup. So I might consider shopping around before you settle on this product. -

Please note that I am rating this product for what it is--processed white meat chicken in a crispy coating. Now here is the best part, YOU COOK IT IN YOUR TOASTER! This product blew my mind. It is like a chicken poptart. I am a student, and I have been studying non-stop for the past few weeks. I do not have time to cook every single meal, nor do I have the funding to eat take-out every day. Krispy Toast is awesome because you run it through the toaster twice and it is ready. You can eat it as a snack, as part of a sandwich, or slice it up for a salad. Needless to say, I am addicted, and I hope that you don't enjoy this product as much as I do because if this product goes like hotcakes after this review, Imma be upset! So try Krispy Toast, but please leave some on the shelf for me! -

I have to say that I actually do not recommend this product even though I really want to. The sticky aspect of this product outweighs any of its benefits. I live in a windy city (not THE windy city but a windy city) and my hair is constantly stuck to my lips thanks to the wind and this lip gloss. The colours are fantastic and it lasts forever, but if you have long hair, forget it. Not only do I not need chunks of pink in my hair, I also don't need my lips to stick together when I am trying to talk. YIKES! I love Clinique products and I have bought their lipgloss before, I just never remember it being this sticky. Maybe I am too busy comparing it to their past products, but you can definitely by a $7 lipgloss at the drugstore instead that will last just as long without the glue texture. I guess it's a bonus if you want your lips to stay locked to someone elses!!! -

Kuddos to this product! I have super sensitive skin and have to buy either high-end products or prescription products, but Burt's Bees is a cheaper product that has the benefits of those way too expensive cleansers. It goes on with a milky feel, not soapy. It does not leave your skin feeling dry, itchy, red, or greasy. I even felt comfortable leaving the house only wearing a light powder rather than the mounds of makeup I usually wear in order to leave the house. It is not as cheap as all the other cheap products, but it is worth the extra couple of dollars. Me likey and so should you--so go try it! -

I live for this stuff! A tube of Hemp cream is approx $18 but it will last you a lifetime! You only need a pea size amount and it will soak right up into your dry, cracked skin. The smell isn't the greatest but that's not really the point of the product. Most of those nicely scented products never do the trick anyway- am I right? My co-workers are constantly grabbing at my hands and stroking them. Yes this sounds weird, but they are fascinated by my baby's bottom hands. So if you're not into random people constantly wanting to touch your hands, then I do not recommend this product. But if you're tired of being embarrassed every time you go to shake someone's hand (especially an employer or future husband), I suggest you go buy this cream. Do it... Do it now! -
