I agree with the nail polishes. Those two are two of my favorite brands. And most of the other stuff is ok, but I don't necessarily think it's "the best." But I don't care how many beauty editors or magazines put Great Lash mascara on their favorites/must haves lists... I will never buy that mascara ever... e.v.e.r. again. It's a thin, wet formula with a crappy spiral brush that doesn't do anything for anyone's lashes. I have *never* seen anyone make that mascara look good on its own, without using another brush/spoolie/lash comb and having an infinite amount of patience. I don't know how Maybelline does it, but I think they pay a ton of money to magazines to keep Great Lash at the top of people's lists, when they shouldn't. They make much better mascaras, like Full 'N Soft and One by One. 

 
Lol  yeah I have never used great lash and really have no desire to.  I don't get how this stays number 1

 
you know I also have the light blue perfume and the smell kinda makes me want to vomit  :X

 
well i agree on herbal essences. My hair looks effing fab thanks to leaving in the condition for a good 30 minutes while showering. I don't have to brush it when i get out cause it somehow retains the moisture (mind you my hair is ridiculously processed).

But everything else...eh. I agree with Diorshow. When I finish my Clinique I'm probably going back to that, lol.

 
I agree with the Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Shampoo and conditioner.

I like these two products.

 
It seems like Great Lash makes these type of lists always. I tried Great Lash before and it didn't work for me. My lashes were all clumpy and it took forever to dry.

 
I don'r really like great lash myself, its weird how its always number 1......

I actually don't know 1 person that uses that mascara....

 
wow i really love great lash. @bonnie- i use it! lol i actually like it better than their other mascaras

 
don't agree on any of them except for the Nars and the Redken products....I sometimes wonder if they get paid just to advertise certain products lol
