I've used a few new products lately and thought I would share my opinions of them for you all.
Garnier Moisture Rescue Lightweight UV Lotion SPF 15:
This is okay. It's not a miracle but it's nice for a daily moisturizer. It does moisturize, which I need for winter, and I don't break out in pimples from it (I'm acne prone with face products). I've been using it for a little less than a month. Some reviewers say they don't like the smell but light fragrances don't bother me.
Batiste (original) dry shampoo:
I'm going to quickly list what I hate in *most dry shampoos
-that gray look from the white residue (I have dark brown hair)
-the fact that the white residue doesn't brush out like most say it will
-dullness
-lack of volume
-greasiness after using the product
This dry shampoo didn't do any of that. I accidentally sprayed too close to my roots the first time. There was a ton of the white product on my hair and I thought "great here we go again with gray hair". I grabbed the closest thing I could, a comb, and combed it out. It was all gone. My hair is it's normal color, it's not greasy anymore, and I has a little bit of volume. While more volume would be nice, this is the closest to a "perfect" dry shampoo I have found for it's price. It's pretty cheap at $6.99 (USD) at my Sally's Beauty Supply store (Note: I also used my green Sally's card). I'll always have a can on hand in the future.
*Note: Most means that I have tried: Tresemme's Dry shampoo, PSSST, Oscar Blandi Pronto Dry Shampoo, and Ojon Rub Out.
Neutrogena - Eye Makeup Remover LotionI personally love this. I have sensitive skin, sensitive eyes,and my skin's acne prone. Thus I usually use baby wipes to remove make-up. Almost any product with "make-up remover" on the label scares my skin. Most either irritate my skin, irritate my eyes, leave an oily film on skin that breaks me out in acne, or I get the product in my eye and can't see for hours. Thus I avoid most of these products. This was recommend in a previous post by flicka23 and I'm so happy she recommended it. I actually got this in my eyes so I could see what would happen and... nothing did. It did slightly sting my face the first time I used it but it hasn't since. It does remove everything. I basically had a lot of black eyeshadow on last night and it removed all of that, leaving my eyes looking as if I hadn't had anything on them at all. It was very convenient to have as all I needed was some sort of tissue and this product to remove my make-up. I also got this for about $7 (USD).
