I purchased this to use when applying makeup in a closet space with no electricity. It is placed on a shelf at shoulder-level, so I needed a mirror with a short stand. This mirror was inexpensive compared to some of the more elegant, metal mirrors and so I was not surprised that is is a fairly inexpensive, plastic frame. If it were not for the LEDs, I think this would be a product in the $12-15 quality range. But the LEDs cost money, so I think the price I paid of $28 was fair.

The 11" x 8" rectangle seems huge compared to the little 6" round I had been using prior. I love how large the viewing area is. The LEDs are a bright, white light. It is not quite as soft as daylight and not quite as harsh as fluorescent office lighting, but in between those two. I really like it, it works well for me and I am normally in a space with natural, incandescent lighting or daylight all day. The LEDs which span the outline of the frame are a bit distracting at first, it almost has the feel of a light shining right in your eyes. They are bright and you have to get used to not looking at them. I just focus on my face in the center and now I don't notice them as much. If you have sensitive eyes, you would probably want to spend more money for one with more diffused light.

The toggle switch to turn the light on/off is on the back right corner, so you reach up with your right hand and flip it unseen. It is quite easy. They lights are immediately on and bright, no warm-up time required.

The magnification mirror is awesome. It is 3" in diameter and they say 10x. I can't speak to the accuracy of the power because I don't have another mirror to which to compare. It is attached with a sleeve to a metal bar that swivels to the front or back of the mirror. It can move up and down on the bar, so you can adjust it to exact height you want. I only use it once a week or so for plucking, so it is no problem for me to swivel it on its frame to the front to use and then swivel it back afterward so it is not in the way of my viewing area on a daily basis. I really like how it is not permanently mounted to the front of the mirror so that when I don't need it I don't have that distraction in my viewing area.

The base of the frame has an indented area to hold some small items. I use it to place my eye glasses when I apply. The base holds the mirror well, it has never tipped over on me, but it is lightweight. I imagine that if placed at counter height in a high-traffic area it would tip over if bumped. The tilt feature works well, I use it daily and it is easy to tilt and stays in place well.

I really like this mirror. it's a good size, doesn't take up too much space on a counter top and it is a REALLY clear mirror. I once heard someone say that not all mirrors are created equal and I must say that this mirror has a really nice clarity to it and is great quality. it shows everything true to it's image.

the reason I didn't give it a 5 out of 5 stars was because the bottom stand is not all that heavy (it's just a light plastic) and it would've been even better if it was a heavier material to weigh down the mirror so it feels sturdier. also the way the mirror tilts up and down is not all that good either. it isn't sturdy the way you tilt it (either higher or lower to accommodate what you desire for the angle). if you tilted it up higher and bump into it a few seconds later (which I have when testing it) it falls back down to the original angle which is down.

OVERALL, I really like it and it serves it purpose and I would reccommend it if you don't mind the little inconviences i wrote about earlier.

Stop your hours upon hours if searching & order this! I did a ridiculous amount of online & offline shopping for a makeup mirror with great lighting & glass that didn't distort. I think I skipped over this one because it looked so different. That it turns out is a GREAT thing! No weird green/yellow/pink toned light for things like office, home or night. Who needs that? We have busy days! Who has time to wash your face & reapply makeup 3 or 4 times a day depending in where you will be? Other mirrors had dim lighting. This produces a bright EVEN light on a large surface that allows you to see your face & hair. It can be tilted to fit many angles & just moving it backwards or forwards then tilting gives you a vast array of positions & angles to choose from. The smaller magnification mirror than can be flipped forward when you need it is GENIUS for eye makeup application & tweezing, or any close up magnified job. When you don't need it, it easily flips to the back out of your way.

Now. The lighting. This is a biggie and a possible deal breaker. I can say I suffer from severe migraines & bright or intense light is a big trigger. From the other reviews I was afraid to order this thinking it would cause a migraine & nothing is worth that pain. However, the other reviewers have my eternal thanks for the heads up!! When I switched it on the first time ( very nervously I might add ) I just told myself "don't look at the lights." I didn't. I just focused straight ahead into the mirror which is VERY EASY to do! Keep your line of vision on your face and/or hair and the lights cause zero problems. I saw my first neurologist at 2 years old, thats how long (Im 43 now) and severe my migraines are. If I can use this daily with no problems I really believe anyone can. If you are somebody thats ultra curious and just HAS TO peek this isn't your mirror if you are light sensitive in any way. But truly it is NO BIG DEAL & NOT HARD to look at the mirror straight on. The surface is so big, the light so even & bright, the magnifying mirror brilliantly placed & distortion free once you find your sweet spot, plus the reasonable price add up to a GREAT mirror! I used it daily for over a month without reviewing and it's consistently been great. I love it!!! Oh! Also, it is so lightweight I questioned it's sturdiness but no worries there. Haven't had a problem with tip overs or anything even tho my make up area is in a pretty high traffic area. Hope this helped, and I can save someone else A LOT of time I wasted!

I really like this mirror! I use it daily to do my hair. I think the best feature is that it has a rectangular shape which provides more of a viewing area than the round ones. The lights can be a little distracting at first, but I either don't use them or don't focus on them when in use.

Wish the actual mirror had a enlarger side and had a heavier base. Tips pretty easily. Otherwise it works fine.

Microfiber Hair Turban with Antibacterial Protection (White-AH6021) Review

Customer Ratings:

I've tried many different hair turbans, and I finally decided to purchase this one online, and I'm truly happiest with this product. The material is very soft, and it cuts my morning routine time dramatically. It seems to help reduce frizz as well, perhaps because of less time using a hair dryer...Highly recommended product!

I bought this product because I wanted to experience microfiber and because I wanted a second turban for when the other one needs laundering. My terrycloth turban works well, but this turban is much roomier. If your hair is long and thick like Cher's or big and bushy like Robert Plant's, this turban will hold in all your hair. It has elastic around the forehead so it stays on and a roomy loop and button fastener. The microfiber fiber has a sort of sticky texture, as all microfiber does, but it's soft enough.

I tried these out because they looked about the same as the Aquis kind that they have on Amazon and which I've purchased before, but they were half the price. Now I know why. I have shoulder length, fine hair and that wasn't enough to really keep this turban on my head. However, even if my hair were longer, these turbans don't seem long enough to handle it the end goes into a very narrow triangle, so it doesn't really "hold" your hair. They also seemed very quickly to get that mildew smell on them, after only a few times using them. I had the Aquis ones for three years without a problem, so I'm going back. These are just more flimsy and more awkward to use. If I hadn't opened them all at the same time, I would have sent the rest back.

This does what I needed it to: hold my wet hair. It is not super absorbent and will get a pillow wet if you lay your wet head down

I read someone else say they order pink and got white and I figured they just mis-ordered...until it happened to me! I didn't return them because, meh..oh well. Although my son, who has long hair, gets mad every time he has to wrap his head in a pink towel!

The beauty isn't in how much water they absorb. They don't absorb any more than a regular towel. The beauty is in the small size and the fact they fasten in the back so you don't have a huge, heavy towel falling off your head.

This dryer was much larger than I expected. It is heavy and takes up a lot of room when packing. And, the "twist" handle is a bit of a challenge too. I would not recommend this product.

I have afro, tightly coiled hair(the size of a pen tip), thick, natural, 5 inch hair and since my hair has gotten longer, I need to use heat to dry it faster. I decided after researching, that this was the best dryer for my money. I wanted a dryer with these attachments and of ionic or titanium technology. This dryer dries very quickly. I did a blow out on towel dried hair on medium heat, high speed in 10 min! My hair was also shiny afterwards. It may sound weird, but whenever I used this dryer, my hair is much softer than it usually is with out it or airdried. I don't ever use the high setting, and the medium setting does just fine. My only complaints are the side switches, as one reviewer noted, can be easily changed during use. I try to place my thumb between the switches to avoid this. Also, it can get a bit heavy if you have extended use, so luckily it only took 10 min to dry my entire head.

dryer only lasted 6 months and blew out. I used it and so did my husband. the switches on the handle do not leave much room for you to grip the handle. Would not buy another Hot Tools dyer. I just bought a Tool Science Nano Lightweight dryer and love it.

my daughter had one that I bought at Ulta, I thought I'd save myself some gas by ordering it. It is not the same dryer, it looks the same except that the buttons are switched around, but the heat and the strength of the air are not even close to my original same type of dryer.

I was hoping the high heat setting would be hot. It isn't. It is light weight. I do tend to bump the control switches while I'm using the dryer, though. Also, the attchments are difficult to take off & put on. Seems to work okay, it dries hair.

Reviews of Conair Frizz Defense Ionic Styling Hair Dryer

Customer Ratings:

Initially, the hairdryer was not shipped with the hair accessories that were advertised as "included." Not Amazon's problem, but they solved it and made me a happy customer (thank you again, Amazon). Well now, it's 9.5 months later and the hair dryer stopped working entirely. It worked well while it lasted, but 9.5 months is a pretty short life for a hair dryer!

I bought this drier based on other site reviwes and the price, and am disappointed. I have a hairdrier half the size that has twice the power -and when combatting frizz the length of time you have to spend drying makes a huge difference! I would not buy this again, recommend it to anyone, and had i kept the box I would have returned it!

This is the best hair dryer I've ever used!! For only $14, u guys have to get this. When you first turn it on full blast, u will smell a burning smell but all you have to do is let it run a bit and it goes away. This hair dryer literally dried my hair in 5 min. I used to have a NuMe hair dryer which was really expensive and it sucked. This Conair one was so much better!!!! I recommend this to all hair types!

Okay, it's pink which is super for the bathroom. I love the safety feature on the plug. I like that I can hang it if I want. And the shot of cold air is perfect to SET a curl or two.

Reviews of John Frieda JFS1 Flat Finish 1-Inch Straightener

List Price: $49.99

Today's Bonus: 40% Off

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I really struggled with how to rate this straighter. I like the look of it. I love how fast it heats up and even better, how quickly it cools down. I also love the digital temperature display and the ability to find just the right temperature. No more low, medium, high, ect...you can set the exact temp. It glides through my hair very smoothly and works very well to straighten and smooth any frizzies. It really is a very good straighter at a reasonable price.

However........the design is ridiculous. Did they not have anyone test this product? The controls are right on the front of the top handle. At first I was constantly turning the straighter off and on, then when I adjusted for that I was turning the temperature up and down and didn't even know it. I kept trying and adjusting how to hold it and burned my hand a couple times trying to figure out a way to use it without hitting the controls. I sort of manage now by putting my thumb over the temperature display window, but it is akward and a completely unnecessary hurdle in using a fairly simple thing.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have an unruly wave/curl to my hair that likes to go a bit crazy the more humid it gets. I mostly ignore it or use one of a supply of cute headbands to suppress it but sometimes even that doesn't work and I, who am the most impatient of hairstylers, have to pull out the flat iron. This one was so stylishly flashy with the way the temperature and buttons are designed! It heats up exceptionally fast, even to my impatient way of thinking, and cools down just as fast for storage quick in the mornings. And in about a minute of styling time my hair is tamed in to straight sanity. And the best part is it stays that way!

Update: I did take one star away because the more I use this straightener the more I find that the buttons are positioned so that I keep accidentally pushing the off button while I'm doing my hair and then I of course lose heat because the device is off. It might just be me, but I thought I should include it in my review as an f.y.i.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This may be a perfectly good straightner, but the design is terrible. They have the switch to make it hotter or cooler right on the front of the handle where you hold it, so every time you put it up to your head to use, you change the temperature setting and you don't know it. I would not recommend this product to anyone. Very poorly designed. I really can't say if it's a good straightner or not because I had the toughest time just "TRYING" to use it.

Honest reviews on John Frieda JFS1 Flat Finish 1-Inch Straightener

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I've been straightening my hair every day for more years than I can remember. Straighteners are amazing. I love them. They work wonders on my hair. I have very thick hair. After I blow dry my hair "straight", it's full, wavy and frizzy. When I don't blow it dry, it looks something like Roseanne-Roseanna-Danna of Saturday Night Live fame. That is to say, my hair is curly, frizzy and BIG. In my opinion, a good straightening iron should be able to straighten and smooth my hair from either it's blown dry or air dried state. This straightener was able to do that...but with difficulty.

The difficulty was not in the straightening itself. The parts of my hair I was able to straightened turned out great. The problem with this straightener is 100% in the design. The design is terrible! The on/off button and the up/down heat buttons are right where you need to place your hand to hold the straightener. I lost count of the number of times I either turned the heat down accidentally or even turned the whole thing off altogether! I could feel my fingers, hand, thumb (whichever) pushing down on the buttons but there was nothing I could do to stop it. I readjusted my hands in every possible position to find a way to hold the thing without some part of my hand eventually hitting those buttons. I was starting to get cramps in my hand just trying to manipulate the thing. I managed to straighten my hair with my thumb grabbing between the two sets of buttons but it was a very awkward way to hold it, making it very difficult to work on my hair safely and efficiently. And even then I kept bumping into the buttons and accidentally turning down the heat or turning off the unit. When I tried to use the straightener on my daughter I had to give up. The angle which I needed to hold it to straighten someone else's hair was not compatible with how my hand had to grib the straightener so as to not hit the buttons. It was a disaster.

The straightener I currently use has a slide on/off switch and a dial to adjust the heat and it's way at the bottom of the iron. The buttons on this unit are spread out across the bottom of the unit in such a way as to make it impossible to grip.

Otherwise, the unit is light and works well. If they redesign it and change the type of buttons so you can't accidentally hit them, it would be a good straightener. Unfortunately, it's too frustrating and uncomfortable to use the way it is now.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I really like the way this iron heats rapidly and cools down just as quickly. My hair is relatively short and I wear it in sort of a sleek bob, so the 1 inch plates are perfect for me. There was absolutely no frizziness as there has been with some other irons.

But, good-grief-Carrie Nation! Wonder if the designer has ever used this. Just try to manipulate the iron without moving the controls. Extremely frustrating! The controls are simply in the wrong place.

Hence, a 50-50 for this iron, sorry to say.

Buy KID KNEX CONSTRUCTION SET GROUP SET

Customer Ratings:

This is my second purchase of this model. The first one stopped functioning bit earlier than I wished for its product life but it may have been as a result of not cleaning the lint filter to the fan often enough. I purchased the second as it had functioned well enough and had the same design so it would easily replace the old one without much more wall work. The functions are limited as it has only two fan speed/temperature settings but it does the job for quick drying of hair.

I gave it no more than three stars for two main reasons: 1. Initial purchase should have lasted longer 2.this model came with a much shorter power cord than the previous "same model" hair dryer which ultimately required some alterations in terms of its installment on the bathroom wall to allow for a shorter connection to the wall electric socket.

I ordered 2 hair dryers for both my daughter's bathroom and mine. This product keeps the blow dryer off of the counter and the cord out of the way. The selections of heat could be improved since there is none, but that was overlooked on my part.

I purchased this 7 months ago and have used it a lot since then. I must say the day it came I was extremely disappointed in the quality; the plastic seems very cheap and the two releases you press, one on each side of the hood, were so stuck as to seem impossible to open it up. It must have taken me a good 10 to 15 minutes (I'm not kidding# to do that as I was so afraid of forcing it and breaking the cheap plastic. I finally figured out that if I press them both in at the same time #and I mean press HARD) and wiggle the hood back and forth, it will release. After 7 months, that is still the proceedure, altho it has gotten easier and has somewhat "broken in" with use. (Or I have just gotten used to it, not sure which). The next step is to press the release on the front of the hood which will allow you to lift and lock it into position. Once again, a struggle, but again has eased somewhat with use. I never have been able to find the 2 positions There seems to be only one, but by that time I am just glad to have it up. This is when I ran to my computer to see what else was on the market that I could get when I returned it. I needed something with a "cool" or "no heat" setting since my hair was damaged. I wanted one just like this only good quality. Maybe it's out there, but I couldn't find it, so I finally decided to give this one a try.

The good news is the heat settings. The "cool" setting really is, and stays cool as the motor runs. The next setting is "warm" and it is just that. I really like to switch back and forth between those 2. There are 2 higher heat settings which I have never used, only checked them out to make sure they work and they do. The bonnet seems plenty big (my biggest rollers are 1 1/2") and the air flow does not feel very strong, but it gets my hair dry pretty quickly even on those low settings. More good news: very nice to store and of course the price is right. Just one more pet peeve the cord is folded up and stuffed into a compartment that is about half as big as it needs to be. It works, but is annoying. I sure would have paid more for a retractable cord!

Overall I would recommend this dryer, until a higher quality one in the same style comes along. Just know that it is not the greatest, but it does do the job.

The picture shown here on Amazon for this product is not like the actual product, and the actual Gold 'N Hot box testifies to this. IT bears the true picture. While I did not open the GNH box that I ordered from Amazon, I bought a dryer before just like this 1200. It came in the same type of GNH box, which you have to destroy to get to the dryer. That renders it impossible to send back should you have to do so. I found that when I put curlers in my hair and sat under that dryer, the bonnet was too small for my head. I ordered this dryer because I thought the bonnet was as pictured. The actual GNH dryer is more cone shaped. Because of deceptive picturing, I wasted my money getting this dryer.

This product is poorly designed. The front closure lever you seen in the picture is plastic and has a metal mechanism underneath. The plastic part gets stuck and keeps the dryer from going down.

I bought this dryer to replace my previous hard hat dryer that worked well for years until I dropped it. This was a terrible waste of money. It is made of cheap plastic and has only two settings too hot and too warm. The hood does not stay so it has dropped on my head numerous times. Once you set the height of the dome you have to wiggle under it not to disturb the setting. I have never been more displeased with this item and it just stopped working when I was using it. At least now I can replace it with a quality hair dryer.
