Products & Reviews

As most of you know, I am a member of BzzAgent.com, an amazing site that helps companies share their new products with the world.  This week I received two full sized bottles from Garnier Fructis' newest line of high-preformance hair products. I had the opportunity to try, for free, Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition shampoo and conditioner (pictured above), which are the products in this new line for dry, damaged hair.   Now I get to share what I have found... Info Garnier Fructis wants you to know (i.e. what is on the package): Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition shampoo and conditioner contain olive oil, avocado oil, and shea oil. The combination of these three nutritive fruit oils penetrate deep into each strand of hair to help restore hair's natural beauty.  As you can see above, the packaging tells us that the olive oil nourishes the core, while the avocado oil nourishes and softens the middle layer and the shea oil nourishes and soothes the surface of each

As a member of BzzAgent, I was offered the opportunity to try and Bzz about Burt's Bees Sensitive Facial Cleanser and Burt's Bees Sensitive Daily Moisturizer Cream , which are hypo-allergenic, fragrance free, and made with 99% natural ingredients. Check out Burt's Bees Natural Skin Solutions for Sensitive Skin on Facebook ! The first thing I noticed when I received the products was that the cleanser is a nice size at 6oz, but the moisturizer is quite a bit smaller at 1.8 oz. They have nearly no smell, just a slight hint of something that is indistinguishable to me, it's possibly cotton, as that is the image depicted on the bottles, but it is so slight a scent I can't be sure. The Burt's Bees Sensitive Facial Cleanser is a wonderful soap- free cleanser. It contains natural extracts such as: Quillaja, from the bark of the Soapbark tree- to provide a natural foaming lather, Yucca- for cleansing, Cotton- to soften, Rice- to moisturize, and Aloe- to soot

I figured if all these celebrities , who could afford to use anything in the world, use Mario Badescu products, it wouldn't hurt for me to give them a try too. So, about a month ago, I filled out a quick questionnaire on the Mario Badescu website , and a few days later I received an e-mail that said "Thank you for your interest in Mario Badescu!

It was enough for 2 washes for me (my hair is short, but very thick, so depending on your hair length and thickness this number may increase or decrease). I can't pick out my favorite thing about these products! I just loved them! So lets start with the shampoo. The shampoo has a very unique smell, which was very soothing. I couldn't quite place the scent though without looking at the package, it is infused with natural eucalyptus and peppermint oil. These natural ingredients create a nice cooling sensation on the scalp, which is very relaxing. The conditioner is also wonderful! It too is infused with natural eucalyptus and peppermint oil, giving it that same wonderful smell and cooling affect. This is one of the thickest conditioners I've ever used. It's much like the co
