TRESemme Color Revitalize Review

Hi all! I just got done submitting my review for BzzAgent for my TRESemme campaign and wanted to post it here for anyone who is interesting in checking it out! It's not too detailed (as you only have so many characters to state your review) so, here you go!

"TRESemmé® Color Revitalize...my review. I rated it 3/5 stars; it was a fair product, but nothing special. I tried this S/C once before I had a chance to officially dye my hair. The shampoo had left much to be desired but the conditioner was heavenly! My hair felt like fine silk after using it in the shower! The scent of both the shampoo and conditioner was quite nice too, very fresh! Fast forward to trying this after dying my hair-a complete mess! The shampoo left my hair feeling dried and fried and washed out my hair color (but the conditioner was still fab!). The S/C set overall seemed a little too harsh for my hair too as strands started falling out too *sighs*. Bottom line, awesome conditioner but pass on the shampoo!"

Caress Fine Fragrance Exlixirs Body Washes

Yippee! I won these from Caress on their Facebook page and just received them both today :o) I LOVE Caress and I'm just now finishing up my Tahitian Renewal body wash as we speak, so these came just in time! Girls, the scents will absolutely blow you away! These two washes smell SO good! Again, another product to review :) though I may save them for the end of May/early June to do so! A quick rundown of the two varieties:

Sheer Twilight: Black Orchid and Juniper Oil-

This one is very sexy, musky, and floral! It does remind me of taking a stroll at Midnight in a garden! Again, very sexy and mature smelling!

Scarlet Blossom: Red Lychee & Patchouli Oil-

This one, to me, is full on Hollywood scarlet prima donna! This scent is sexy but it's also sassy! It reminds me of a girl who knows what she wants and how to get it...


I'll have more to tell you (unless you've tried it yourself!) about these two when the review time comes. Until then, stay put for the Sally Hensen review coming in a few minutes and enjoy Hump Day! Adios!

Playtex Body Wipes (Crowdtap) Review

So, I completely forgot about my Playtex review in my last post! This month (after much waiting), I finally received my sample share for Playtex for Crowdtap. This was the first campaign I had the chance to do since signing up, my next will be Hawaiian Tropic! Anyway, on to the review!!

These little wipes are wonderful! The scent they come in is cool cucumber and trust me, it does not let up! After a long session exercising, errand-running or shopping (hehehe!), you can just whip these out and your body is quickly refreshed and cooled down, literally! I liked that the wipes were not soaking wet once you took them out of the packet. With a little air, the moisture on your hands will disappear. Also helpful is the fact that, as you see, they are individually wrapped, not in one tube (ala baby wipes) which is great when you need you throw a few in your purse on the way out. They clean dirt and sweat quite gently and the solution is very mild, so I image they are perfect for kids as well!

The wipes are also non-alcoholic (which usually means non-drying, yay!) and can be trashed or more importantly, flushed when finished! Double kudos! Overall, I HIGHLY suggest picking a pack up!

GIVEAWAY: I have some packets I would love to give to some of my readers! I will randomly select 2 people who will receive a few wipes to sample for themselves! All you have to do is 'like' my Facebook page: Glamorous (and Frugal) Wife and come back and comment 'done' on THIS post with your email addy! You can earn an extra entry by signing up using the Google Connect feature on the right side of the blog and comment saying you did so :)

Contest ends May 7th @ 9PM Pacific (12AM ET)!
