One product I use that I swear by is Eucerin Intensive Hand Repair Creme Plus. This is the ONLY hand creme that works for my super dry and cracked hands (typically my right hand is worse because I wash dishes with that hand and it's submerged in hot water). This is not greasy at all and absorbs quickly. I recommend it to everyone who asks. I use other lotions for scent, but this is my base one that softens my hands for hours. It's hands down (ha...pun) the best hand creme I've used. dalbador1https://www.blogger.com/profile/09877799102438622117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-5082066053005256082013-01-31T19:22:00.081-05:002013-01-31T19:22:00.081-05:00I just bought #1 for my daughter and now I'm g...I just bought #1 for my daughter and now I'm going to have to steal, er "borrow", some from her and give it a try myself. She may or may not get it back. LOL<br /><br />One product I swear by is ELF eyelid primer...and it only costs a BUCK! I get it at Target and it's the bomb...holds my eyeshadow perfectly all. day. long. And it's only a BUCK!!! (I obviously can't get over the fact that it only costs ONE DOLLAR) ;-) heheheAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13477548540626948283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-17373630865410319312013-01-31T13:38:33.287-05:002013-01-31T13:38:33.287-05:00I think you'll really love it!

I use it twice a week and use the Pantene Moisture Balance Conditioner in between. <br /><br />Pantene Age Defy has advance thickening, tames frizz, etc. It's new, you might want to check it out to see if you like it! (I'm going to after this batch of Pantene runs out just to see if I like it. When you lots of weight, hair goes with it along with middle age.

I didn't use hairspray, or gel or any of those "products." I was in my 30's during the 80's, morbidly obese already and didn't care much about my hair--knowing anything I did with my hair wouldn't change how bad I looked. For years my hair grew long, straggly, and after experimenting with coloring it myself and getting tired of how often I had to touch up the roots, I gave up, and let it go gray. But it was kind of curly and I pulled the front back in a barrett and let it flow down my back. I told myself it looked okay. When I got below 200 pounds in Nov. 2010, I had my niece cut and color my hair and have been keeping it professionally colored ever since. She even puts in highlights, which I love. Unfortunately, I rarely need to get it cut anymore to keep it at shoulder-length. It just breaks off and is so very thin. I never appreciated my thick hair enough, cause when I got close to 60, the hair got really thin and I never realized that is common in older women. My niece is so careful with the coloring now, fearing that is what caused my hair to thin. But I think it's just my age. <br /><br />So I'm going to give the Organix a try and hopefully it will make my hair less frizzy at the very least!!! Thanks for the recommendation, I'll let you know how it turns out.dupsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18088114640385927198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-2404891133106938842013-01-31T12:34:40.598-05:002013-01-31T12:34:40.598-05:00Isn't that stuff AMAZING!?!?

Yippee! I love it. Did you know they make a Body Oil in the exact same stuff? Yep! Saw it at ULTA. I'm going to try some when it goes on sale - I'll let you know if I like it. I'm going to TJs today - just added the coconut body buter to the list. Thanks for a great post and helpful tips. I always see things and think...I wonder if that's any good.

I'm too cheap to buy Pantene or the others, but Suave makes a good line of "salon-like" products. I just wish I could find something to help with the flyaway hair problem. Between my fine hair and the super dry climate I live in nothing short of motor oil is going to keep my hair from getting all staticky and flyaway-y. <br /><br />Store brand version of oil of olay spf moisturizer on my face - love that it's moist but light and doesn't make my face all greasy.<br /><br />Jergens original body lotion (the one an only scented item in my arsenal), although this week I switched to Eucerin cream on a doctors recommendation. Not sure I'm loving <br />it, but we'll see.<br /><br />Almay smart shade liquid make-up. I love this stuff. I never could match my make-up to my skin tone exactly and this stuff does it for you, never that weird what color is that supposed to be look.
