While traveling in the US, I discovered that I left my travelling shampoo at home. I didn’t want to be bothered to look for, and pay for, a salon or a hair product store where I could buy one of my usual brands, so being cheap, I decided to …

This is actually a concealer and not a whitening roll on. I was really into this while I was shopping some stuff at Clarins thinking that this is a whitening roll on. The name says “brightening corrector”. Constantly I am in search for the perfect eye whitening roll on. …

I recently bought a small size of the Clinique All About Eyes from TJ Maxx because I was lucky enough to find this there at a lower price than the full price which is $28.5 for 0.5 ounces at Sephora I believe. My eye area is really dry while …

I actually won this Stila Illuminating Finishing Powder in Rose Silk in a contest, so I was super excited to recieve this in the mail! I got this about a week and a half ago, and I’ve been using this every day since then as a highlight on my …

I really like colored eyeliner because I feel like it can make an every day look pop and be a little more fun and exciting without being over the top. I especially love these kind of looks for the spring, and my favorite colored eyeliner would have to be …

Olay Regenerist is the latest moisturizer product of Olay, and I was quick to grab it for a try. I’ve been a fan of Olay since the day it overwhelmed me with its whitening cream product that I use up to this day. Indeed, Olay is one of the …

For awhile I have become a bit desperate looking for an oil control toner which would suit my skin type, because I had a very oily skin that would be shiny even when I just washed my face after 3 hours. Maybe it was because of the food I …

The main problem with foundations and my skin is that I break out after use. My social life pattern depends on my skin condition: I wear foundation for three to five days, then I break out and spend the next two days treating it acne products, then it …

Before I moved to Missouri from California, I had never encountered really cold weather. Aside from enjoying the sight of falling snow, I was surprised by the effect it had on my hands. My skin got so dry that it actually started splitting and cracking. I …

Due to my skin problems, I need to invest in a dependable concealer. I have skin blemishes up the wazoo – large pores, uneven tone, break-outs, blotchiness, dryness, greasiness… the list is never-ending. Naturally, I want to cover up all these problems before facing the outside world. …

I have two shades of Rimmel colour rush mono eyeshadow – ‘Tempted’ (which is a mid blue colour) and ‘Glitzed’ (which is a silver). They are listed on the Rimmel website as part of their Special Effects range. A further 5 shades can be purchased from this range. …

Is your hair dry and brittle? Does your hair need extra moisture throughout the day? Do you need a leave-in conditioner that actually does the job? Then I definitely recommend the Bed Head Ego Boost. It is in a triangular shaped bottle that is hot pink with a green …

One of my favorite lip balms of all time is the Nivea Kiss of Moisture lip balm which comes in a blue tube that resembles a glue stick, and it retails for around $2-$3 depending on what store you get it from. I really loved the fact that there …

I have acne prone skin which means I get a lot of breakouts around my forehead around and occasionally on my cheeks, which obviously isn’t very attractive. Plus, when I was younger and didn’t really know the meaning of self control, I used to pick my pimples which was …

When it comes to deodorants and anti-perspirants, most of the time I am happy to remain in something of a comfort zone, buying either brands that I have used before with good results or at the very least others that form part of the same range. However, when I …

Glamour Doll Eyes twi-shadows are some of the coolest themed (but a little unoriginal given how everything seems to be based off of the books these days) eye shadows that I have used, though they may not be my favorite colors. They are loose powders and come in these …

Got2b Fat-Tastic Instant Collagen Infusion Mousse infuses your hair with crazy volume and instant thickening power, due to the collagen in it. I have thin/fine hair that lays flat against my head most days, but once I tried the Got2b products, my hair had more volume and bounce than …

I really wasn’t into using night creams. I did not even have any idea what it was for before I actually tried it out myself. I was quite worried about the dark fine lines that started appearing around my eyes. I asked around my friends for help about this …

Some of you might wonder what exactly night creams are for. Well to put it in a simple way, it is a type of cream you put on your skin at night. But what does it do? At night is the only time that your skin gets a …

I’m a self-confessed MAC newbie. In fact, this is the only MAC product I own as of now. I’ve had a bad experience with MAC a long time ago, I think the shade was Dubonnet or something like that. It smeared like crazy and needed frequent reapplications because it …

This Made-in-the-United Kingdom face masque comes in handy, ready-to-use 0.3fl oz packets that you can tuck away easily in the dressing table drawer. I keep mine in the refrigerator though because I like the cool substance on my skin.
Ingredients: Passion flower, Raspberry, Grape, pomegranate and Cranberry. This mash of …

This was the cheapest hair color that I ever know. I thought I would like to give it a try and if it will be great product, I don’t have to buy expensive product anymore to color my hair next time. So I bought it from the supermarket. One …

I have seen this product in the television a lot of times before, but I didn’t bother to buy it cause it’s quite expensive and I have doubts that it would actually work. My sister though, came home one day, and she bought this product, so I said I …

Paul Mitchell makes a variety of hair care products, and I have had good results with most of them. Usually the only time I buy Paul Mitchell is when my hairdresser talks me into it, since they are more expensive than most drugstore products.
My hair is dry and …

I purchased this product recently because it was advertised as an under-eye concealer and a treatment in one. So, although it was $10, I thought that was a good deal for a product that claimed to diminish fine lines while concealing dark circles under the eyes. Plus, …

I have been a fan of Avon product for a long time. I love how they offer quality products at reasonable prices. I love looking through the catalogs, and I am usually pleased with the products overall. I recently found an interesting product by Avon called …

I received a Jasmine La Belle cosmetic kit for my birthday last year, and one of the items I got was an eyeshadow and blush combination pallette. The pallette includes nine eye shadows in different colors, and two blushers, in a rectangular case with a see-through cover. There is …

I totally love Olay Total Effects Daily moisturizer. It has done wonders to my skin. I have tried a lot of moisturizers before, but Olay would be the best for me. It’s quite expensive here in our country, but I don’t really mind cause I get a lot from …

I wear lipstick every day and I am always looking for the perfect product that will stay on and look great all day. So many of the long lasting lipsticks I’ve tried are so uncomfortable to wear that they make your lips look and feel worse. Most …

I purchased EasyStraight Straight Styling Solutions Long-Lasting Frizz Remover because at first I thought it was a hair straightener. I was looking for a straightener that would be gentle enough to use on my hair without causing it more damage with harsh chemicals. This product claimed to …

Using this product was one of my biggest hair mistakes ever. I tried it about a year ago and I am still trying to repair my hair from the damage that the straightener did to it.
I have thick, curly, coarse hair that gets frizzy in the …

I have tried numerous products to try to tame my dry, frizzy hair. John Frieda Frizz-Ease Straight Fixation Smoothing Creme caught my eye recently because it was less expensive than the frizz-ease serum that I had purchased in the past. I paid around $6 for a tube of …

I am in my mid-thirties and have spent a lot of time in the sun over the years. This is beginning to show up on my face in the form of spots, wrinkles, and a rough skin texture. While many of my friends see a dermatologist for …

I like the idea of a dry shampoo because three are many times when my hair begins to get oily at the roots, but the rest of my hair is dry. With all the time it takes me to wash, condition, blow dry, and straighten my hair, I …

Any woman who wears foundation knows that is it hard to find the exact shade to match your skin. Lots of times we end up with lines around our face where the foundation ends no matter how much we rub the makeup onto our face. Thankfully, those …

I admit to being a hair product snob, because most of my hair care wardrobe consists of salon brands. I occasionally find a great product from the drugstore brands, but it is usually by accident-either I run out of something and need a fill-in item until I can get …

I have some brown spots (age spots) and freckles on my face, which I obviously have because I didn’t always take care of my skin, and I admit the darker, larger ones bother me. I may be the only one that really notices, but I do cover them up …

I love light pink lips, so the lipsticks and lipglosses I buy are mainly light pink colors and hardly anything else. However, I’ve recently started getting into nude colors. Unfortunately, a lot of the ones I’ve tried really wash me out, and so far, I still haven’t found the …

This is an antiaging product which claims similar results to injectable face lift procedures. Quite enticing when you first get hold of it. I thought that this is a good bargain to begin given that this is way cheaper than getting a non-invasive facelift. I happen to have some …

I have always been a big fan of Mac make-up, and usually exclusively use Mac eyeshadows and blushers. I love how silky soft the powders glide on. I also love the staying power of Mac consmetics; I can apply most Mac products early in the day, and honestly not …

On my first order to e.l.f. I purchased the lip plumper & primer and had high expectations from the reviews I watched and read. I used the product for a little over a week before I made my final decision on the product. Basically its a double sided lipstick. …

I recently purchased my first haul from e.l.f. and decided to buy various items to get a general grip on how e.l.f.s inexpensive makeup compares to other brands.
One of the first items I purchased was the waterproof eyeliner pen in black. I’m a huge eyeliner fan and would be …

After more than a year, my sister and I met. I’m living in Manila because of work while she stays in the province with other family members. I was surprised to see her with glowing fair and smooth face. I was envious of how her face glows that made …

Bronzer is a product I have steered clear of for years because t seems so fake to me. Putting a brown powder all over my face to pretend that I have seen some sun just has never been appealing to me in any kind of way. I have pale …

Now glitter is something that every girl needs. It is so shiny, but not very practical at the same time. I bought myself a few cosmetic glitters just to try them out, because they are so sparkly at $6.50 that I just had to buy a few. I really …

Blush is something that I can’t live without now, but a few month ago, I would have passed it up for a mc Donald’s cheeseburger and fries any day, and I don’t even like their food very much at all, so it would have been a terrible waste, which …

A mineral veil seems to be one of the products that seems to have no apparent sue until you actually start using it the right way. I had read about the miss America pageants and how they kept their makeup from melting off during the shows was that they …

I learned all about highlighters while watching you tube tutorials on how to do makeup and face powders and all that, so I was really excited when I went of my makeup craze to go and buy some. I have never done any real contouring with my makeup before, …

I have heard so much about BFTE foundations being the best mineral makeup out there, and although it is really great I suppose, it still doesn’t compare to my personal favorites Larenim and Everyday minerals. They have less color choice, and they way they present their colors online makes …

I really stopped using lip gloss in eighth grade. Back then I used it every day and was always wondering why I kept getting the same huge pimple on my chin over and over until I finally realized what it was that was causing it. I was using a …
