I have had a regular Rusk curling iron for years and never really thought about trying anything else until I started reading reviews about the You Curl. I finally decided to go ahead and buy it. I got it for 37$ at Walmart and I bought the larger size one.
There is multiple heat settings and it goes up to 400°F which is excellent for a department store iron. The quality feels amazing. Honestly I am kind of a snob when it comes to hair tools, I usually buy CHI, Solano, GHD, so I really was not sure about this, but I cannot rave enough about the results!!
My hair looked amazing and it is so easy to use. I let it on my strand of hair for about 5 seconds and the curls come out super nice, and most of all, THEY LAST!! My curls last for 2 days and they look so great even after sleeping on them!
This is by far the best product I have bought this year and I like it better than my GHD flat iron which I bought for like four times the price. And it works way better than my Rusk curling iron! Go get it, it should be an essential item in your beauty routine if you like soft curls!

The Body Shop Lip and Cheek Stain

I had my eyes on Benetint from Benefit for a while, but found that the price (36$) was way too high. When I saw this product I knew I had to try it!
Overall, it does the same job as Benetint. You apply some of it on your cheeck and blend it with your fingers to add some instant color. You can do the same with your lips. It is a stain, so there is no glossy feeling, it only gives some color to your lips and face.
It is perfect for weekends when you don't want to wear that much makeup but still want to look fresh. I love the product overall, I just find that I need to build it up a little on the cheeks to really get some color, but it is easily buildable!

I bought this product as I love the scent of coconut and had heard great reviews about the line. I have dry hair and this coconut milk shampoo was said to by hydrating and nourishing my hair. I love the scent, but found that the product really dried my hair out. I have to use leave-in conditionner even after using the Organix Nourishing conditionner because my hair would be too dry without it.
It is a shame because the price is great and I love the scent, but the fact that I must also buy a leave-in conditioner for this to work great on my hair is expensive and I would not buy it again because of that. :(

I use this cream as a nail treatment, it is honestly the best product I have ever bought for my nails. Before this, they were soft and would break all the time, my cuticles were always so dry.
I saw results with this product after the first applications, it was that fast! My nails are now super strong, they never break, they look healthy and my cutiles are well hydrated.
The texture of the cream is much like vaseline, it is really greasy so I suggest you apply it at night and let it really penetrate for the night, then wash off in the morning.
The price is fair as you don't need all that much, a little goes a long way and my 4 oz bottle will last a while I am sure.

This brand is by far the longuest lasting I have tried. I love their creamy consistency and their colors are lovely.
For about 9$, I feel that this is a fair price considering I prefer this to Essie products.
I bought the Flash Collection and the colors are so vibrant and easy to apply, opaque after 2 layers which is great, no more wasted evenings applying nailpolish and endlessy waiting for it to dry!

So have fairly dry, sensitive skin, especially on the bottom of my cheeks where I have rosacea. I have tried so many products to dry and get rid of the dry patches and the aloe line by The Body Shop is truly the most effective and gentle I have used.
The soothing day cream is light but really hydrating, it does not irritate or feal greasy. Like the whole range, the product is free of any fragrance, soap, preservative, and dye. They also use organic fair-trade aloe.
The product really feels high end to me. I have used Korres before and feel like the results are equivalent, but I do prefer the aloe line by Body Shop. The price is average, but they always have sales so it is easy to get the product at a better price.

Not being a fan of lipstick (I am more of a gloss kind of girl), I had been looking for a good compromise that would not feel too heavy on my lips, but would still provide colour and hydratation. I think I found my match in the Twistup which I bought in the Flirtini shade.
Application is easy and no need to trace your lips beforehand, which is one of the reasons why I did not like lipstick. The color Flirtini is really great, a nice red with a tint of pink. I feel like this is great quality, however you obviously get some transfer on your glass when you drink, etc. but I guess the product does not pretend to be stain-free anyway.
I bought it for 9.59$ which I found to be a little expensive, might wait for a sale next time I buy one, but I will definitely buy another soon as I why to try more colors and the product is great!
