When it comes to flat irons, sometimes you score big with an amazing bargain, while other times, the deal fizzles out flat. Reader kayecouture tried out Remington T/Studio Ceramic Digital Flat Iron ($40) and got burned. Here's why:
This flat iron is a piece of crap.

We all know that finding the right foundation is a process. Recently reader smesarchik reviewed CoverGirl Advanced Radiance Age-Defying Makeup ($12), praising it for its light coverage and low cost. Here's what else she had to say about this liquid foundation:
It is extremely soft to the touch — almost like velvet.

You all know how much I love a good Chanel lip gloss, but I hadn't tried Chanel Rouge Allure Laque Luminous Satin Lip Lacquer ($32), so I was excited to see that reader gooz1231 had. Her review, though, makes me want to head down to the store and try one right now. She says:
"This lip product from Chanel (think a hybrid between a lipstick and gloss) is absolutely amazing.

I really love Korres watermelon products, but I hadn't heard much about the line's Lemon Lip Scrub ($19). The price is a little steep for a person who loses lip stuff all the time like I do, but reader laratf makes it sound so good that I might just have to try it anyway. She says:
"The most effective lip treatment I've found.

Living Proof's Straight Making No Frizz Styling Treatment for Thick to Coarse Hair ($24) is one of the newest frizz-fighters on the market, and it promises everything from a humidity barrier to the ability to repel dirt and oil so that you can go longer between shampoos. Reader sabriel2 finds that it does deliver in some areas, but still gives it mixed reviews. She says:
I have long, thick, dry hair, so I was pleased with the amount of straightening and control I got when I heat-styled after using this.

L'Oreal is always coming out with new products for its Infallible line, and while I'm not sure if L'Oreal Infallible Never Fail Makeup ($13) would be good for my skin type, reader ohmarie has had a great experience with it on her oily skin. She says:
"I have very oily skin, and this stuff works so well. It gives me great coverage, and I don't even need concealer.

It's hard to keep up with all the "green" products on the market right now, so I haven't had the chance to try L'Oreal Hair Expertise Ever Pure Smooth Shampoo ($7). It's supposed to be gentle and sulfate-free, and although those are both good things, that doesn't mean that it's the right one for you. Reader xholdxmexunderx took it for a test-drive and wasn't terribly impressed, saying:
"I got this after dying my hair dark, and it didn't rinse out my color like most other shampoos do.

For me, that first breath of chill-tinged air is always a sign to start shopping for new lipstick, and while I've long been a fan of Lipstick Queen's Sinner and Medieval shades, I hadn't given much thought to Sinner's corollary line, Lipstick Queen Saint by Poppy King ($18). After seeing this review by reader Sabrina See , though, I think I'm ready to check them out, although I'm sad that the colors she wanted weren't in stock. She says:
"I tried this one in red and pink — what luxurious colors.

I like so many Burt's Bees products, but I'd never even heard of Burt's Bees Shea and Grapefruit Deep Conditioner ($8) until reader Yogaforlife reviewed it. It sounds great, though, and I'm really glad she mentioned it. She says:
"I normally use Pureology shampoo/conditioners to protect my color-treated hair in between salon visits, but I noticed that my hair felt really dry lately.
