I bought this a couple of years ago during the holiday season. Back then, Crabtree & Evelyn called this scent Pomegranate Rouge. Now they carry a scented body cream that is simply called Pomegranate. So I don’t know whether it is basically the same holiday scent, and they just …

I’m not a big fan of dollar store beauty products as they often seem to have dubious origins but I made an exception when I bought Viologie crystal shine shampoo for just $1.25CDN at my local Dollarama store. I didn’t have high hopes for this shampoo, but it was …

I love Dove products, and I love the fact that they donate a portion from all beauty products sold to the Dove Girls Esteem Fund, that teaches teenage girls that real beauty comes from within. I was delighted to receive the Dove gofresh2 deodorant and body mist combo pack …

I love to spend big bucks on moisturizers that are really expensive. I usually buy my face products at Sephora. I love Philosophy and Clinique mostly. For years, I spent a lot of money on very expensive makeup and beauty products. However, I recently learned that you do not …

A few days ago I went into my local Bath & Body Works store to pick up a few gifts. I also had a coupon for a free liplicious lip gloss with any purchase! So I got to pick any one I wanted for free!
Scanning the available …

It took a sip of mandarin gin, topped with sour lemons, to realize my lips were in a painfully dry state. A glance at the mirror informed me that my lipstick didn’t budge, but the sting which arose from drinking that acidulous beverage, made me wish I brought …

I usually buy the Nivea Kiss of Moisture Lip Balms because they’re my favorite, but they’re around three dollars for only one, and the Aquafina lip balms were sitting next to the Nivea lip balms at Walmart. The Aquafina ones seemed more of a bang for my buck for …

Nars is famous for the Nars Orgasm blush which is a really gorgeous peachy pink shimmery blush. I’ve owned that for almost a year now, and I love it because it looks beautiful on my cheeks and really brightens them up! However, I really wanted to try something new, …

As a swimmer, I get chlorine burns quite often, especially around my eyes where my goggles and the chlorinated water make the skin there sensitive and around my shoulders where my swim suit strap rubs against my skin. If you’ve ever had chafed skin, you know how uncomfortable it …

My skin is ALWAYS dry in the winter, especially my legs. This is partially because I was born with dry skin (body, not face) and partially because I’m in the water for swim practice 24/7. I hate the feeling and the look of flaky, dry skin, but I hate …

I’m happy that I invested my money into this product, because I honestly never purchased anything like it before! I’m just so used to cleaning my make up brushes with regular soap and water and occasionally alcohol, but sometimes that just doesn’t get all of the grime, glitter, and …

I am among those people who can’t relate to most of the beauty guidelines set by the vain populace. Moisturize lavishly – nope, I have oily skin. Don’t wash hair every day – no, thanks – I have troubled scalp. You see, my skin sets the …

I am a morena (a Filipina with dark skin tone), so it is quite a daunting task to choose the right foundation that matches my skin color. I’ve already tried all sorts of foundation in cake, powder, cream, and liquid forms, but nothing seem to fit my skin tone. …

I was shopping for Christmas gifts a few weeks ago and came across a store called The Soap Factory in Megamall. The Soap Factory is a store that sells different kinds of novelty soaps. There are soap dispensers with different colored and scented soaps that you can …

Unfortunately, I was really disappointed with this product. This cleanser is more of a lotion that it is a cleanser. When I try to face my face with it, I feel like it never completely comes off my face. I feel like there is a light …

Although I have always liked Johnson and Johnson products, I had never used their adult body lotion products. I was pleasantly surprised with Johnson’s Feeling Healthy Green Tea Body Care Lotion. This body lotion has a sheer consistency that absorbs completely into my skin. Even though …

Unfortunately, Cover Girl Professional Mascara is absolutely one of the worst mascaras I have ever tried. The consistency is extremely thin — yet it manages to get all globby (yes, globby, that’s a technical term) on my lashes. My brand new tube is already drying out (after …

I’m happy to say that Cover Girl Fantastic Lash is my new favorite waterproof mascara — knocking Almay to second on my list (even though I’ve used Almay for ten years). I can’t say enough about Cover Girl’s mascara. It’s the perfect consistency — builds up my …

I’m happy to say that this is my “old stand by” mascara. It’s a perfect consistency, it builds up my lashes without making them look false or clumpy and the applicator wand comes to a nice point — which allows me to get those tiny little eyelashes on …

Unfortunately, I have to say I do not like this product because the consistency is way too thick (which makes it hard to apply without clumping). This mascara smudges and runs under my eyes within the first half hour of application and the application brush does not have …

I love make up and one of my favorite feature is the eyes. I believe eyes are the most powerful and the best feature I have. I always dress them up really nicely while the rest of my face is kept natural. I love fake lashies and have been …

I purchased the MAC volcanic ash thermal mask when I did the volcanic ash exfoliator which I utterly adore by the way. I got this after the persistent sales girl at MAC counter claiming this is one of their best sellers and that I got to have them. They …

I love to exfoliate my skin. I know you can not exfoliate and scrub too often but I absolutely adore the MAC Volcanic Ash exfoliator. I find them to be the most gentle of all exfoliator I have get my hands on. I could exfoliate 3 times a week with …

I am a nail polish junkie and love to do manicures and pedicures. I have an addiction to collecting nail polish and hence, I have collected quite a lot of it over the years. I make sure to check out all brands, no matter what the price range and …

Lately I have been suffering from very dry and cracked lips. It is probably due to the cold and dry winter we are experiencing here. I have seen this product being mentioned in several reviews that I read online where the users mentioned getting smooth lips are using this. …

I have naturally straight hair. I’m born with it. I want to curl it sometimes but I don’t want to just use hair sprays because when it dries, it hardens on the hair. It also feels a bit sticky. So instead of using hair spray for styling my hair, …

As I said in my other review regarding Meladerm and its effect on my skin, when I was young I used to sit in the sun whenever I had the opportunity to ‘get a bit of colour on my skin’. As you get older, you become more aware of …

I was supposedly going to buy the L’Oreal Paris Total Repair 5 Shampoo at the 7-11 branch near our place but, since I was probably rushing to go home, I didn’t realize that I bought the L’Oreal Paris Total Repair Conditioner instead of the shampoo.
I have been a fan …

Chanel Safari eyeshadow is one of Chanel’s soft touch powder shadows. It can be applied either dry or, for a more intense look, with a dampened brush. I generally apply it with a dry makeup brush and I find that it applies …

This is a nice moisturizing hand cream that smells great. It is made by Bath and Body Works , and is good product to use. It is great for year round use , but I always use more creams and lotions in the winter time. My skin gets dry …

I love make up and everything related to beauty. I remember buying my first set of make up brushes and tools when I was 13 years old. I remember playing with my mom’s make up when she was away at work when I was 9 years old. I am …

I bought my jar of the Venus and Mars Bare it All(BIA) Emu Cream online at www.venusandmars08.multiply.com. Its yummy description and good feedback from satisfied clients really convinced me to buy it. According to the packaging, the cream is “especially formulated to smoothen & whiten the roughest and darkest …
