I wanted to rave about something new I used recently and how great it worked for me, so thought maybe i'd find out about other products people use that are amazing.
Ok i have VERY thin hair, and have used NUMEROUS products that say they give you volume and they really dont. Recently I used one that seriously gave me so much volume, never used anything that did it this well. My hair is so thin that i HAVE to wash it everyday bc it gets oily and looks bad. Today i woke up and it still had so much volume and looked great and not oily at all so decided to FINALLY give my hair a rest from washing it for one day. You're not supposed to but i normally have no choice.
I used Kerastase-expanseur extra-corps. Its thickening action for weakened hair.
Also use the Kerastase bain volume shampoo and then after put on this other kerastase thing called ciment anti-usure, its a fortifying treatment.
Also alterna hemp shampoo and conditioner is AMAZING. When i use the alterna shampoo or kerastase shampoo its such a huge difference when doing my hair after, usually it takes longer to do bc of the ends but with this the hair looks great and dont have to do much with it.
also loving the bare minerals faux tan bronzer.
Ok thats it for me lol, wanna hear about other products ppl are using. I figure as women we are always looking for new hair products, make up, skincare
ETA: jess posted kitchen products, these are more than welcome too, any home things

Some of my favorites:
1.Bed Head Dumb Blonde shampoo and conditioner 2.Nars o rgasm blush 3.MAC Lipglass 4.Smashbox Photo Finish Light foundation primer
And my newest discovery is the Pevonia Botanica skincare line. The exfoliating cleanser is amazing and I also love their toner for 'problematic' skin.
i need to try the nars o rgasm blush lol, i use nars deep throat blush and love it but seems like everyone raves about o rgasm

Proactive-
but I only use the cream...I cant use the 3 step system because it dries out my face...but I use the cream as a moisturizer and it really takes away the oil.
Bed Head Control Freak-
LOVE THIS...I have super curly hair and I use Finesse Mousse and a few drops of the Control Freak and it make my curls super smooth, non- frizzy and non-crunchy!
St. Ives Apricot Scrub-
I have been using this forever as a face/body wash...it contains ground apricot pits and is a fantastic exfoliant (it also comes in gentle and medicated... I just use the regular).
GREAT THRED!

i used to use the 3 step proactiv, it worked very well but like you said it did dry me out alot. The 2nd time i used it after i was finished the first time, i didnt dry out as much, i guess after time your skin gets used to it. My mom keeps bothering me now telling me to use proactiv again and doesnt understand why i dont use it again since it worked so well lol. I will after the summer bc you have to be careful with going in the sun and using proactiv and i want to be tan right now lol. HOWEVER i still use the sulfur mask proactiv has which is awesome, works very well.

Re: Rave about your favorite products
I love Oscar Blandi Dry Shampoo. I used to have to wash my hair every day, but now I use this and can stretch it out to every three days, and it looks super fresh every day in between! In fact I love all the Oscar Blandi products... I'm totally addicted.
I also love Kinerase Intensive Eye Cream. I used to have horrible dark circles under my eyes and started getting fine lines, but I started using this in December, and now all the lines have disappeared and I don't have to wear under eye concealer anymore.

I love this thread denise, and I'm taking it for a turn and bringing it into the kitchen! In my wishing well at my shower someone threw this in and it's the most amazing invention---ever! It chops garlic. You put it in and roll the little thingy and then you have really small chopped garlic. I love cooking but hate chopping garlic because I can't get it small enough so this was a perfect gift for me! You can get them at BBB for $9.99
Thats's great!!! I just added it on my registry! THANKS!!!!

I LOOOOVE Coochy cream! It's a shaving cream you can get buy at Fantasy Parties. You can also buy it online. It prevents ingrown hairs, razor burn and bumps it also makes your skin so silky.
i actually prefer the deep throat to o, i think its more peach-y which flatters my skin tone

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer
It is seriously the best invention. It really does keep your shadow on ALL DAY. When I travel for work my days are seriously 16-20 hours long (no exaggeration) and my eyeshadow still looks the same at midnight as it did at 6 am when I put it on.

I am a mascara junkie, so I will also recommend DIOR Blackout mascara. It makes your lashes so thick, and lush. I am also a fan of Lancome Courbe Virtuôse Mascara. They are both great.
And as for cheap items.. I swear by good old SEABREEZE and Dove soap. Dove is all I have ever used, makes my skin soft, and the smell is so clean.
