Beauty Products

| July 16, 2010 |

Everywhere you go there are different brands of products. Whether you shop at a salon, CVS, or Walmart there are all types of haircare and nail products to choose from, in all different price ranges. I’m sure you’ve tried different brands and products until you found the ones you really like. I know I do. I try new things all the time, and definitely have my favorites. I really believe that some products are far superior to others. Do you want to know a secret? There are only a few manufacturers out there that make all the products. Really. I’m sure you’ve heard this before, it happens with all different types of products. Manufacturers and companies work together so they can make more money. Companies want to target as many people as they can so not only do they manufacture their regular product, they also make a lower priced or generic brand.

Many of the products are very similar in ingredients (there are many that are totally unique as well). What ignited me to post about all this is that I was at the dollar store yesterday picking up some stuff for my daughters brownie troop, when I noticed a cute air freshener that looked like a lamp. It was a no name brand, but when I checked the fine print I discovered it was manufactured at the same place as my beloved Yankee candles. Am I implying that the dollar store product is as good as the way more expensive candles, no I am not. But it does make you wonder doesn’t it?
