Ojon Restorative Hair Treatment
7 people recommended this item
Description
This stuff is amazing. It is designed to be used as a deep conditioner, but I use a dab of it on my wet hair and it really enhances the shine and smooths everything out (I use Wen conditioner/shampoo as my main leave-in conditioner). Some people do not like the smell of this (to me it smells like a mix of cigars and sugar) but I guess I use so little of it, I don't notice it leaves a smell on my hair. Really amazing stuff!

Jonathan Product Dirt Texturizing Paste at Sephora
2 people recommended this item
Description
If I could only own one styling product this would be it! I have fine colored/highlighted hair. I have a layered choppy cut that I can either flip out or under. I put a small amount of this product in my hands, emulsify and then run through (especially the top to give lift). This just really give my hair extra body and oommph! It also helps your hair to stay in whatever style it is in when you apply this product (without it becoming sticky or funky). Truly a miracle product and one of my must haves!

Infiniti Hair Designer with Straightener Attachment
2 people recommended this item
Description
I hate to blow dry my hair, and in the past have not been very good at it. I always have had a hard time using the round brush and drying at the same time. My hair always looks amazing after my stylist does it, but I can never make it look as nice. Well, those days are over thanks to this baby! Thanks to this wonderful attachment, you will never have to worry about the round brush again. My hair looks as good as when I get it done. A miracle product for me!

AEDES DE VENUSTAS - your complete online source for exclusive fragrances
First to recommend
Description
Aedes is the legendary store in NYC for all your high end fragrance and skin care needs (on Christopher Street). In these days of everything being online, let's face it, catalogs seem to be very 1997 and I'm really not excited to get them anymore. However the Aedes catalog is an extreme exception. The Aedes catalog continues to make me squeal like a little girl with delight when I get it. I've also been lucky enough to go to their store. If you live in NYC you know what I'm talking about. If you go to NYC, if you are in any way, shape or form into high end fragrance or skin care, this is a must visit. Indulge in a visit to Aedes (either in person, online or via catalog) and be ready to be delighted!

Carol's Daughter - Tui Hair Oil

Description
I have dry colored hair. A bit of this from the middle to the ends, helps my hair stay soft, not to mentioned how amazing this smells! I have not tried anything from Carol's Daughter that I have not loved!!

Solia Tourmaline Ceramic Ion Flat Iron (1")
First to recommend
Description
This is an amazing flat iron. When ceramic technology first became popular in flat irons, I bought a CHI on the recommendation of my hairdresser. I was happy with my CHI but a few years ago started hearing really great things about the Solia (and it also costs less than the CHI). I have also heard good things about the Sedu, but with the shape of the Sedu you cannot really flip your ends (which is something I always do). Buying a Solia flat iron is one of the best purchases I have ever made. It has an adjustable heat setting (which my model of CHI did not). What I love the most tho is that you can use this to straighten and also flip the ends! If you are looking for a flat iron, you can't do better than this one.

L'Oréal Glam Shine Dazzling Plumping Lipcolour
First to recommend
Description
This is my absolute favorite lip gloss. I can't believe this comes from the drugstore. It is so shiny, beautiful and amazing. I usually wear either Mac or Maybelline long wearing lipstick, with this over the top (I like the long wearing lipstick underneath to give me a base of color). I'm not sure if it plumps (it does not have the stinging feeling of other plumping lip glosses), but I don't care because I buy it for the beautiful colors (Diva is my favorite and is the perfect color for me.....a beautiful rosy mauve). I also love that is is not at all sticky! If you want a beautiful shiny lip gloss, this is for you.

Sally Hansen Natural Shine Instant Nail Finish
First to recommend
2 people recommended this item
Description
I usually try to keep my nails polished all the time. However, with my very packed schedule that is not always possible. For days, when I am in between manicures (which translates to I barely had time to take off my old polish and don't have time to do a manicure), I can slap some of this brilliant stuff on. It dries instantly and gives a nice just buffed shine to your nails. The best part is that it naturally wears off, so you do not need to use polish remover. Now, thanks to this brilliant product, just because you are short on time does not mean you can't looked polished and put together!

Clinique Up-lighting Liquid Illuminator
First to recommend
3 people recommended this item
Description
This is an amazing highlighter. I love the Blush shade (a nice pinkish tone). It just gives a beautiful luminosity to the skin. Think Benefit High Beam only better! It's also oil free, which is a huge plus for me as my skin is very oily!

Ojon Tawaka Ancient Tribal Rejuvenating Cream
First to recommend
3 people recommended this item
Description
This stuff is natural, multi-purpose and amazing. You can use this as a face cream (I have found it makes a wonderful makeup primer too), body cream and on your hair. You get a rather large tub of it for the price. The Ojon line has another winner on its hands. I have not tried anything from this line that has not exceeded my expectations.
