If I have to use one word to sum the benefits of this mascara the word would be: great. Clinique makes some pretty awesome mascaras and for a reasonable price. Indeed, they aren’t as cheap as the ones from Avon/Oriflame, but the results are ten times better.
The first …

Ok, this doesn’t fit in the bargain category, but I love it. The colors are violets and browns and they make my brown eyes look pop up. And, unlike some other products I have from them, this one actually has a brush that works nicely.
I didn’t noticed the …

L’Oreal’s new line of sulfate free products has been heavily advertised and promoted recently. I’ve tried the whole line and it is a pretty decent attempt by L’Oreal to cater to the latest haircare “trend” of reducing or eliminating sulfates in haircare products.
First, this product contains no sulfates (obviously). …

For most women who wear hair extensions, the beauty of the additional hair is often balanced with the pain and frustration of removing the extensions, especially in cases where the hair has been attached through the process of hair bonding. While using hair glue to attach wefted hair …

I am a girly girl that loves to experiment with different makeup brands and looks. Right now, I am living in a small apartment where there is not enough space and light for me to properly apply my makeup. Since I work in a very professional …

One of my favorite places to purchase hair and body products from is Dollar Tree, mainly because the retailer carries name brand products at deep discount prices. The other reason that I love purchasing cosmetic products from the retailer is the fact it is not a huge risk …

I love Bath & Body Works products. I will admit that my house is overfilled with everything from their body lotions to their perfumes. As much as I love their products, I tend to be very reluctant about using a different scent other than the ones that …

Although I am a very thrifty or cheap person, there are a few things that I can not be cheap about. Lotion happens to be one of those items. Because I suffer from dry skin, I am not able to use just anything on my skin. …

I’m totally bummed as to why I decided to buy this run of the mill eye shadow pencil from Maybelline. I am always on the lookout for quickie make up that makes it a breeze to apply. It’s a self-imposed philosophy in cosmetics which I had acquired …

To have oily eye lids is a really lamentable problem especially in my case, I learned to use an eye base early on to create a blotting layer so my eye make up wouldn’t smudge. But that doesn’t guarantee my make up won’t budge, particularly my eye liner …

Of all the exfoliating products I’ve used as a rough-skinned consumer. This was the only body scrub that made a lasting impression to my skin. I didn’t mind getting my skin abraded as long as I was able to buff out the bumpy areas of my body. …

I rarely purchase makeup or cosmetics, or if I can help it, anything, in Canada because we pay so much more for everything than Americans do, but I saw an ad in my local newspaper advertising Dior Lip Maximizer at The Bay. I had read about this product, which …

I can’t stand looking at my cozy dresser as of late. A bunch of defunct and abandoned cosmetics have cluttered the room. For my sanity, I decided to swap many of my stuff. I traded my Liss Control Serum I just acquired recently for another L’Oreal hair …

I wasn’t blessed with thick imposing eyebrows, as if a highly arched bushy pair of which can really invoke a sense of power. Mine is more inferior, narrowed down and thin with sparse hair. It’s hard to wish for a hair growth enhancing product right now and …

I often opt for bronzers than blushers because I have a flat bone structure on my face that requires plenty of definition. But I get the urge every now and then to not be so stringent with my make up and loosen up a little whenever I feel …

Oftentimes, I don’t keep up with the frenzy of painting classic prim and elegant polishes, except for the eternally chic black. Simple as they look, classic manicures actually take more time to achieve. I’m not an avid lover of white lacquer because it makes my hands look …

I’m always on the go for a good bronzer if it entails having sun kissed cheeks. I apparently love this newfound multi-tasker in the form of Desert Chic Fusion Eye and Cheek color from Smashbox. It’s just hefty to be packing around too many eye powders (too …

I am one of those people who have dyed their hair for 20 years. I used to put a semi permanent color on to liven up my color, but then 13 years ago I started to get some grey hairs and that is when I got …

Maybelline have the best eyeliner products. At least, this is according to my own experiences. I have been trying few kind of brands to find the right eyeliner for me. I came to the conclusion that Maybelline have the best products when it come to eyeliner.
The newest eyeliner …

I got this as a GWP, that is a gift with purchase, because I bought something like $500 worth of perfume and cosmetics for my family (we have a lot of women who like to smell nice). So they threw in this white, shimmery, frosty nail polish. At first …

I love Wet N wild. They make such great and fashion forward colors at such cheapie cheap prices! I went to my CVS and found that another collection came out! This one is called the Craze collection, and I got the nail polish called Glitz. This is a glitter …

Milani is one of those drugstore brands that I avoid like the plague, because I have had so many bad experiences with them before, but who can resist a BOGO? I got one from Milani’s Neon Collection Nail Polish in Fresh Teal, and it is a teal cream polish. …

I have had this bronzer for some time now, and I have already hit pan on it, yet I still continue to use it. It is just that good! I do not remember how much I got it for, since it was a while back, but I do remember …

Hehe, the name just makes me want to giggle. Anyway, I am not the most up to date person in the fashion world, and the only thing that I can keep up with the seasons is nail polish, since they are so cheap and so easily acquired. I can …

I could not find the liquid soap from Nivea when I decided to get this Nivea Vitamin Creme Cream Soap. I guess it was just out of stock in the store where I did my grocery. I should not make a problem out of it. I should be happy …

I recently discovered an amazing cream that could protect me from the harmful ultra violet rays from the grueling hit of the sun when I am outside, this super restorative day cream from Clarins. This is very excellent and very effective, I personally picked this product to be my …

I purchased the Rio Scanning Laser Hair Remover X20 a month ago and I love it! I purchased cheaper laser hair removers in the past and they were not as effective as the Rio Scanning Laser Hair Remover. This product sends a laser beam to the hair follicles and …

I have a fetish for eye makeup. I could forget the blush or the gloss but not the eye makeup. Everyday I spend the longest time on putting on my eye makeup and every night I spend the longest time removing it too. Sometimes, when my makeup remover just …

It is only during holidays that we get to have the facilities of a bathtub. We do not have one at home. During our recent trip to KL, we stayed at the Legend Hotel and was happy to be given a room with a large bathroom which has a …

One of the major requirements that most women have for their lipsticks is that it be long lasting. Nobody wants to have to reapply their lipstick five different times throughout one night. It is best to have a lipstick that you can just apply and forget about. You want …

In one incident when people commented about how my skin got darker than the usual color, I was searching for night cream to help me regain my original skin color. Decleor is a well known, expensive brand from Paris. This was the one that I found out to be …

I tried this whitening lotion from a Japanese brand. I have tried Shiseido before and it was really one of the best whitening creams I have tried. I was impressed of how smooth my face has become since I started using it. I was introduced by a friend to …

I have tried another eye cream from Estee Lauder. I have tried the Re-Nutriv Ultimate Lifting Eye Cream. Given that I was satisfied with that previous brand, I tried this. Re-Nutriv is difficult to find and they always run out of stock. I was browsing the website of Estee …

Eyes can immediately admired for being dramatic with just a few streak of eyeliner. With the right taste of black and the correct placement, once can easily be confined with this look. For this reason I have used pencil eyeliner but the faster is always the better. I have …

G2thione whitening bath soap from LVE Company is my very favorite beauty soap lately. This extra impressive whitening bar has powerful ingredients which include glutathione, kojic acid, virgin coconut oil, goat’s milk and vitamin E, all free-radicals fighters with very effective skin softening and whitening properties.
Honestly, this bath soap …

Sometimes I like my eyelashes to look longer than they already are, but I don’t like fake eyelashes, so a friend recommended me to use L’Oreal Telescopic Mascara.
I was positively surprised with the results the first time I tried it. They really looked longer than they are. Also, the …

This mascara isn’t as expensive as other eyelash mascaras, so I decided to give it a try.
It has a special brush that doesn’t leave lumps in your eyelashes. I found that great, as I can’t stand seeing a simgle lump on them. Also, you don’t really need to apply …

I adore Wet n Wild, and not just the water park, the cosmetics brand too. Every time they come up with something new, a couple days later, it will be in my stash. So a couple of days back, I picked up this Wet n Wild Intuitive Blend Foundation …

I have always like L’Oreal, so I wasn’t hesitant to try these HIP Studio Secrets Professional Color Crystal Eyeliners out…until I saw their price tag. $10. Really? $10. Yup. Do I buy it? Is it worth it? I think that this is definitely worth the moolah I threw at …

When a collection comes out I have no choice but to buy it all, to me it is like adopting a child without its twin sibling! How could I do that? This collection comes with a mascara, 4 eyeshadows, an eyeliner, and a lip gloss. All of this cost …

So I have had these Avon Glimmersticks in Black Ice and Emerald Glow for quite some time now, and I have to say I really do like them. They are all shimmery and glittery and just plain beautiful without all that excess frost or shine that makes me hate …

I’ve yet to find a perfect foundation, but this one from Covergirl, called the Trublend Whipped Foundation, comes pretty darn close. I only paid like $9 for this foundation so I am very happy with the price, but am I happy with the results? In a word, absolutely. In …

Obviously, I didn’t buy this, I don’t like The Body Shop stuff at all. Everything smells nice, but never seems to do what it is supposed to do, or what the sales associates tell me it will do. I got this as a gift from a co worker, one …

I want flawless skin, perfect skin, HD camera skin, smooth skin, moisturized skin, all in one concealer. Perhaps, this is the one? Maybelline Super Stay 24 Hr Long Wearing Concealer is a mouthful, but it is also a faceful. It comes in a tube with a doe foot applicator, …

On a makeup inspired whim, I got this Tarina Tarantino Dollskin Cheek Blush in Parasol because I had extra cash burning a hole in my wallet. I love to throw my money at useless things, and this blush is gorgeous, but not unique. I pay way too much attention …

Okay, so I’ve been lemming for this ever since it came out, and I finally got my paws on a couple of these eyeshadows! The colors I got were Savana and Diamante, two gorgeous colors with two absolutely gorgeous names. And here is the sweetness: they are bigger than …

I cannot stand being oily in the summer, so I picked up this (apparently) limited edition Bare Minerals Mini Matte Buffing Brush a while ago. This is quite a find, because it’s very compact, and cylinder-shaped. At one end is a small buffing brush, and at the other, a …

Oh how I love palettes, especially palettes that combine products for eyes and lips and face, along with a couple of brushes, all into one convenient sleek and chic package. The palette of my dreams has yet to be found, but Bobbi Brown came pretty close with their spring …

I always use Jergens lotion as my body moisturizer and frequently buy different types – which are formulated for special purposes – to see which I would prefer to stick with. Recently I needed a new bottle of lotion and found they had several new lotions on the shelf …

Once in awhile my lips get very, very dry and I need an overnight lip treatment to help moisturize them and soften them back up again. One of my favorite nighttime lip treatment products to use is Chapstick Overnight Lip Treatment. It comes in a purple tube that is …
