I used each before straightening my hair which I do 2x daily (giggle) Yes I'm obsessed with my hair being straight. One of my many quirks.
I did not particularly like the smell, which usually Pantene has. It left my hair heavy and feeling just dirty. Now I can;t be sure if again thats because I have colored hair and its very finicky, But I could feel the stickiness and I really was not pleased with it. Usually love Pantene, but this one doesn't jive with my hair.

Although my hair type isn’t fine or flat, I’m also exceedingly pleased with my results. I needed a tiny bit of styling product over the surface of my hair at the top of my head to manage some of my more stubborn flyaways, yet my hair felt fresh and swingy for days after my blowout. It held onto its shiny style far longer than it usually does without flattening out, and without my having to resort to dry shampoo. (That last point is key; dry shampoo tends to make me itchy.) In fact, I now want to be able to take the Pantene Aqua Light trio with me to blowout appointments. Seriously. -
L'Oreal Professionnel Intense Repair Masque
SMELLS LIKE BANANAS!! FEELS LIKE BUTTER!!!! MMMMMM.... I have very long, thick, somewhat wavy hair, down to the waist. I like to wear it like the 70's actresses, with lots of volume and va-va-voom. So I blow dry, flat iron, a bit of spray and... +
SMELLS LIKE BANANAS!! FEELS LIKE BUTTER!!!! MMMMMM....
I have very long, thick, somewhat wavy hair, down to the waist. I like to wear it like the 70's actresses, with lots of volume and va-va-voom. So I blow dry, flat iron, a bit of spray and backcombing. And, I do dye my hair, yes. So it takes a lot of abuse. I went to a salon and asked what deep conditioner would be good for me, and they recommended that. At first, I thought yeah right...probably the same as drugstore stuff, only named slightly differently and stuck on these salon shelves for triple and quadruple the price. But, I must say I was pleasantly wrong. This stuff is great! Not greasy at all. But makes my hair super soft and shiny and manageable. The flat iron just slips through like magic. And I get compliments on my hair every day, so it must be doing something good! This is truly beautiful stuff.
I Love this stuff! Im so happy I dont have to buy Kerastase anymore, it works just as good-maybe better! I wish I knew about this a long time ago. I like the smell of this better as well, and if it saves me a lot more money than Im all for this product! L'Oreal made Kerastase, so it makes perfect sense. Highly reccomended!

WHAT A GEM! this brush is now my all-time favorite electric toothbrush I've used to date. I've used other brands before and was pretty happy with them, but it's the little features on this one that makes it my favorite! I absolutely love love love the timer featrue. It has a vibrating buzz every 30 seconds to remind you to go to the next quadrant, and then after 2 minutes it pulsates to let you know you are finished (or at least is suggests, you could keep brushing). I dunno, I am a detailed-oriented person and I just love that.
The brush itself feel a great weight to hold as well, not bulky like others, or heavy-bottomed like battery ones. The size of the brush head was perfect to get in to the back area of your teeth, way to the back of the molars, and around the back molars very easily. The bristles were nice and soft, which is my preference too, since soft bristles are way better for your gum health than medium or hard. The indicator light is a nice soft green, but wont' keep you up at night glowing from the bathroom like other models.
Overall, I think the Oral-B company has a definite winner with this one. It's something that I would highly recommend and to family and friends-and already have! If I see these on sale I will be picking another one for my husband. Very happy with this product!

First, I haven't whitened my teeth in over 6 months. The strips were exactly the same as any of the Crest Strips I've used before, with the exception of easier to fold over corners on the strips peices. I like the idea of only 2 hours, and that's it. I've given up when I had to do 2 weeks, or even 1 week. I like the idea of only once every 3-4 months.
I agree with other statements that the results are not going to give you glaring white teeth, so don't have high hopes if that is what you're looking for. There IS noticeable results, just not dramatic. I liked the adhesion of the strips, the 2 hours went by quickly and I drank water no problem, talked on the phone, and no worries. I would buy this again for the conveinence alone.

Cottonelle Ultra Bathroom Tissue

Wow. This tissue is definitely the Ferrari of of all TP!! lol! I can see why it is priced higher than say Purex, Charmin, or Royale, because it's such high quality. I have never tried this brand before, but as other reviewers have said, I as well will be making a switch to this brand. What I was really impressed with was no white paper dust left all around the roller handle like pretty much all other types I've used before. This brand is super-duper soft, so much so you feel very pampered. I'm impressed. Very impressed. -

I really liked this product for its overall quick remedy fix for regrowth of uncolored hair. The application is super easy and color rookie fool proof for just about anybody. Only issue is the gloves as with every color out there on the morket. They are not a deal breaker for buying this product again, just the only criticisim i could come up with. The color matching is very good with this product. Seamless to me, I am very happy with the coverage and just how fast this can go when dealing with regrowth. i will definitely tell all my friends about how great this product is and plan on stocking up on these when I see a sale! -

O.K. So it has been 3 days since I used this product, and I have washed my hair everyday, and the color is still rich and hasn't faded. So far, impressed with the longevity of the initial first washings.
The Application: The smell is pleasant, there is NOOOO harsh smell at all that you are used to with other hair colors. The gloves are the usual ones you see with colors, not the best, but workable...I did notice that some were saying the applicator bottle tip was hard to get off, but it was not at all, just TWIST off as it says, and voila! Easy peasy, it's off. O.K. it's worth noting that I have hair down to my waist, and there was indeed enough product for all that hair. I was very happy with that! How often could you say that? I did time the application time and 10 mins IS ALL U NEED! It does process fast, so you have to hustle to get it all worked in fast.
I loved the conditioner included in the box. It felt like it drenched my hair very well after the color was rinsed out. It also lasted two times on my very long hair. Love love that! I used 415 on my hair, and it was very close to what I already had, so it was a huge boost of shine to my hair and great warmth to my already chocolate hair. I would definitely use this color again, I have absolutely no bad things to say about it. My favorite thing of all is the short processing time, I mean 10 minutes! That's so great! The color goes in, I tweeze my eyebrows a bit, and it's time to rinse. So great! Gonna stock up on these when I see them on sale.
