Conair Self-Grip Rollers (Volume & Lift)

I saw these at the store, and was wondering if this was actually a good product...  I've had self heated hair rollers by babyliss, which are good, but was opting for a non-heat type.

PLEASE, for the sake of YOUR hair, do not get these Conair ones.  These are terrible!  They pull your hair, create frizz, and do terrible things to your hair!!!! They don't curl, they just pull and snag your hair!!!  (Mind you I have thick Asian hair)


This is going in the trash and I wasted $13.00 USD... >.> Never again!
Conair, why did you make such a terrible product?!

Dior Creme De Rose Lip Balm

I've been buying stuff from Dior lately, because of all the hype around their products.  Sadly there's another disappointing product.  I really hoped this product would work too!! 

I recently purchased the Dior Creme De Rose Smoothing Plumping Lip Balm.  The shade is a petal pinkish color, which turns out sheer on your lips.  

Now I've been on the hunt for a good lip balm, because my lips are super sensitive to everything, and get super chapped and dry...  My lips have a tendency to get use to the product, where the product doesn't work anymore.  I CANNOT use regular chapsticks, they make my lips peel T^T  

I've used ones from Chapstick, Burts Bees, Nivea, Softlips, Carmex, Lypsyl (which works the most out of most chapsticks I've tried and I do come back to this), 

With a lot of lip products I have tried that have worked and stopped working, I have to switch them out and use a different one, and then come back to it. 

Other ones I've tried: 

-Korres lip butter-which worked well, and then stopped working (I do come back to it)

-Bite lip products-which didn't work at all

-Jack Black Instense THerapy Lip Balm-worked and then stopped working

-Rosebud Perfume Co Lip Balm- worked then stopped working  

-Fresh Sugar Lip Treatments in Rose and Passion-Which works well still. But recently stopped working  ( I still come back to them though)

-EOS lip balms-Works sometimes (I come back to these as well)

I found out that Petroleum based lip balms do not work on me!!!

Claims (from Sephora website):  "soothes, re-plumps, hydrates, and protects the lips with SPF 10.This nourishing lip balm comes in one universal petal pink shade and features a delicate rose scent"

It does have a lovely rose scent, but it didn't do too well in the re-plump, soothe, and hydrate lips departments.  It feels good when applied, but the hydrating aspect didn't last long (1 hr), and actually ending up drying my lips further.  Not to mention, it would make my lips peel!!  At $26.00 I was hoping this would work for me, and I really want to Love it :(

Have you had any success with this?

Dior Show Lash Amplifying Duo

I recently purchased the Dior show mascara and primer duo from Sephora.  I must say, for all the hype that it has received, it does NOTHING for my thin, straight, Asian lashes!!  :(

The primer claims to curl your lashes as well as plump them.  As soon as I curled my lashes and added the primer, they started pointing down...  Normally, my eyelashes can hold a curl after being curled, without adding anything, so this was a HUGE disappointment..

Eyelashes curled, no primer

 Eyelashes curled, with primer--See how it no longer is curled!!  T^T

I really wanted to love this product, but it doesn't work for me... I can't say much for the lash strengthening or lengthening aspect of the serum since I haven't used it long enough.  

The Dior Show Mascara doesn't work that well either, it separates my lashes, but does not add any volume, it tends to give a feathery look instead. It does not hold a curl either >.<

I think if you have naturally curled lashes, this would be great for you.  But thin, straight lashes (like almost all Asians) it wouldn't work for you.

What are your Thoughts??
