Drug-Store HAUL and Review
SO, the other day I headed out to get a few items that I needed, but its so me to always grab an extra item or two =)
I grabbed some hair products, skin product, and some make up items. Since I have tried out most of the products that I have purchased already, I decided I should do a mini haul/review!
First up, let me start with the hair care products!
I have been looking for the right shampoo and conditioner for my hair that doesn't contain all the harsh chemicals that most hair products out there contain. Many of you don't realize that the products you are using, really damage your hair. It's so important to take good care of your hair, which means not buying products that contain sulfate, salt, dyes, and perabens. I came across; RENPURE ORINGIALS Brazilian Keratin Straightening Shampoo and Conditioner.
These products do NOT contain perabens, dyes, salt, and sulfate.
I was unsure about this product, but once I washed and conditioned my hair, my hair has never felt so soft. I also used this on my 3 year old daughter's hair. She has hair very similar to mine. Her hair was left soft as well. I give this product a 7.5 out of 10. Each product costs about $5.99. I purchsed mine at Rite Aide. I would purchase this product again!
Next, (another hair care product) my mother gave me a sample of Moroccan Oil from her hair stylist. It was a small bottle and I have lots of hair, so needless to say, it did not last long. Moroccan Oil hands down is the best oil for your hair. It leaves your hair feeling so soft, adds moisture with out the greasy look, and gives your hair a nice healthy shine to it. Since I got a FREE sample and ran out, I have been looking around for some or something very similar to Moroccan Oil. However, at the drug store that I was at, they didn't have any, but I did come across; Organix Hydrating Macadamia Oil
I used this product (a pea size) in my hair after I washed my hair with the Renpure Brazilian Keratin Shampoo and Conditioner This was amazing. Smells so wonderful and works just as great as Moroccan Oil. Moroccan Oil however to me, smells better. But I think the results were just the same. This is great for using after a wash and conditioner to your hair. Put a pea size in your palm after you have air dried or towel dried your hair, and you can wrap your hair when going to bed with this product on and believe me, your hair will feel so soft the next morning!
I purchased this product from Rite Aide for $7.99
Only complaint I have, is its a little over-priced for such a small 3.3 fl oz.
Onto skin care! Recently my skin has been so dry. Hate every second of it, especially when I apply make up and my skin looks dry!! Worst thing ever. I have been looking for the perfect moisturizer for my face that is lightweight and lasts all day long. Browsing through the aisle, nothing was popping out to me, until I saw GARNIER Nutritioniste Moisture Rescue Lightweight UV-Lotion
At first, I wasn't thrilled about this product. It has a great smell to it, very lightweight like it claims, but when I first applied a pea size to my skin, it kind of felt sticky on my skin. After about 20 minutes of it being on my face, my skin has never felt smoother. I have to try this out more to see if I really see a difference in the 24/hour moisture protection, so come back for a final review on this product! So far so good though =)
I purchased this from Rite Aide for $8.49. A little on the pricey side, but I was willing to spend that much on a good moisturizer. There is also lots of product for your bucks ;)
My last and final purchase was on make up! I have been hearing about Revlon's Lip Butters for some time now, and really wanted to give them a try. I ended up purchasing two colors; Sugar Plum and Gum Drop. Sugar Plum is a rosy, pinkish reddish color. And Gum Drop is a lavender, glittery color. The lip butters are supposed to be a moisture rich lip color for your lips. However, I wasn't really thrilled about this product. The colors are nice, but I needed to add Maybeline's Baby Lips FIRST before I added Revlon's Lip Butter. So if you are looking for a nice color then by all means go buy this product. But for me, I wasn't exactly happy about paying for a product that says "lip butter" to find out its not exactly how its described. Maybeline's Baby Lips did this all for me. Gave me color and moisturizer all at the same time! I would give this product a 6 out of 10. Would I buy again? Maybe...as long as I knew I had Baby Lips by Maybeline on deck ;)
Okay, that's all for now ladies! I hope that this helped someone out. Any questions or comments please leave down below!
Yours Truly,
Court
