I just recently tried out the liiv botanicals facial wash, and really loved the results, so I knew I had to try more in the liiv botanicals line and see if I’d enjoy the other products just as much. I live in Michigan where the winters are harsh, and …

I must admit that I have a problem. I like to collect bath and body products. I never used to be this way. In fact, I’m such a neat freak, that in the past the idea of having a bathroom full of girlie lotions and soaps and scrubs and …

I am a girl, through and through, and I like all the girlie things most women enjoy. I like anything sparkly and attractive, and the first thing I have to say is that the Anew Ultimate Night Gold Emulsion is a girls best friend right along with a diamond. …

I started working at a shoe store about a year and a half ago. Before that, I used to work with wire in my home jewelry business, and my fingers have since seen better days. At the shoe store, we have to take all the tissue paper that the …

I’ve noticed over the last five years that my nails leave a LOT to be desired. I make jewelry and bead and work with wire and paint and draw and use charcoal, and my hands have seen a great deal of abuse. And, about a year and a half …

Growing up, I was always a sort of tom-boy. Though I wore dresses and skirts religiously (and still do), you’d find me climbing trees in them right along with all the boys in the neighborhood (which I don’t still do, thank you very much). So, I never considered myself …

I had such great results, recently, from trying another mediterranean olive oil product from avon, that I wanted to try as many of them as I could find. I have very dry skin, everywhere on my body, except, of course, for the oily complexion on my face. Talk about …

I have developed, over the years, a strange addiction to lotions. I can’t really describe it. It’s bordering on a sickness really at this point. What’s so awful is that I’ll buy a new lotion and love it and toss all my other ones, because I’m a neat freak …

This product, the NAIL EXPERTS Neat Nails Nail Enamel Corrector Pen, is the second nail polish corrector pen I’ve used. The first time I used one, I purchased it from Sally’s Beauty and really loved it. I went in there asking for easy traveling convenient size nail polish remver, …

I did a review not too long ago about using a nail polish remover in a pen, which was easy to travel with, convenient in size and portability and could correct any messy spots you might not have noticed when you were painting your nails. I took this pen …

I’ve always had a problem with weak nails. When I was younger, I could grow them out, but they were always flimsy. I didn’t have much of a problem with breakages, because my nails weren’t brittle, they were just thin and weak. I could literally bend a longer nail …

I’m one of those minimalist women. I don’t wear much makeup aside from foundation and powder and maybe the occassional lipstick if my natural coloring isn’t doing much for me on a particular day. and I’ve tended, over the years, to avoid eye make-up at all costs. It never …

I was really happy to see this eye concealer because it offers you more than hiding your dark circles. Normally, the concealers that are available in the market only hides the evidence of staying up late but it does not provide more than that. What happens if aside from …

I really like the whitening effects of this night cream from Shiseido because it is very effective in taking away dullness in your skin. The main problem that I had are dark spots in my cheeks and a slight in my forehead. I needed a night cream who can …

I thought this was just a pure moisturizer but upon checking it online, it said that this can also give you a “subtle tan”. Regarding this, I did not experience any tanning effect. So for starters, this is not true, I don’t believe that this is capable of giving …

I have very dry, curly frizzy hair and I’m always looking for very rich conditioners that leave my hair soft and manageable. I’ve tried a lot of products from really expensive salon brands to cheaper drugstore brands and haven’t found one that I really love, until now.
I have …

I have been using mineral makeup for a while and have been loving it. When I found this mascara that said it was mineral enriched and had 86% pure ingredients in it I wanted to try it. I bought it in black. My eyelashes are fairly long …

I’ve know about Dermalogica’s products for a while now, but only over the last few months have I started to properly purchase and test them. I recently purchased Dermalogica Stress Relief Treatment Oil. As it is a multi purpose body oil and seemed like good value for money, having …

Ok. I’ve always hated my ‘double chin’. Id gone to a ‘cosmetic medicine specialist - actually not for the chin(s) but to try botox for facial sweating. But while there I mentioned the dreaded double chin.
The Dr told me that what I really needed was volumne in …

A few days ago, for less that $2, I purchased a 15 oz bottle of White Rain Extra Body Conditioner which promises to “add body and improve the texture of flat, fine, and thin hair.” My hair is extremely dry sometimes, despite the amount of money that I spend …

When Dove first introduced its line of body mists, I was a little skeptical. I associated the Dove brand with lotions, facial products, and of course deodorants. One day while I was shopping at Target, I noticed they were offering Dove Go Fresh Energizing Grapefruit & Lemongrass …

As a hairdresser, I have used many products as part of my typical working day, and one of the main items that I use is American Crew Daily Conditioner. Our hair salon stocks a large range of haircare products, but this is the one that I use myself.
My hair …

Zero Frizz from Swarzkopf caught my eye as soon as it landed on the shelves. I have always had extremely dry, brittle, rebellious hair and so the promise of zero frizz is too good for me to be true. I had my hair rebonded for a total of about …

I received a small bottle of L’Occitane Gel Douche Lavender (Bath Gel) from a friend. My first impression was, “Wow, this looks expensive..” Yup, if you can’t pronounce it, it’s probably expensive. I have read wonderful reviews about the L’Occitane brand but have never tried any of their products …

I love Christmas for a lot of reasons, but mainly because my mom always picks out great stocking stuffers which are usually new cosmetic products which I haven’t tried before. She has a knack of finding things that I end up loving so much that I buy them for …

This Nivea toner acts like a mild astringent that clarifies skin with continued use. I use it every night before going to sleep. I apply it on my face and neck. I’m a fan of Nivea products (I also use their deodorant) because of the mild ingredients used that …

I have incredibly sensitive skin and find it difficult to find products that to not aggravate it. My face is particularity sensitive and the wrong product can bring me out in red blotches. As a result I have struggled to find a range of products suitable for my skin …

I’m fond of reading magazines and beauty articles and almost every one of them advised its readers against using a facial scrub… the nitty-gritty kind. I even read an article from Glamour once written by a dermatologist about this whole don’t-scrub-your-face thingy. I was fond of using face scrubs …

This comes in an 8 oz. plastic bottle. The bottle is blue with Clean and Clear written on top. It is also a clear bottle so that you can see how much is left and buy a new one before it runs out.
This toner works well at cleaning …

Vanite Goat’s Milk Foam Bath is a decent body wash. I have been using it steadily for a few months. It doesn’t seem to run out, and it’s really good on my skin, too.
It’s got that silky feel to it, and I like the scent, it’s not very …

I am a big fan of Clinique makeup and skin care products, and have used quite a few different types of items over the years. I usually get to try new products when I get the free gift with purchase items for free, and then if I really love …

I only paid £14 from Amazon for this Ladyshave HP6306 from the Philips brand which I thought was good because I had been paying a fortune to get new blades for my Gilette razor I had been using previously. This Ladyshave seems to be a pretty good, basic …

This Intoxicating Davana Blossom Foaming Bath Oil was one of the luxurious Molton Brown products someone kindly bought me for Christmas. I am aware of the high price of this brand and this particular product retails at a whopping £40 for a 300ml bottle so this is a …

I always wear a nail polish but as I am not the most disciplined of people I am often guilty of having nasty chipped polish on my nails as I am too lazy to redo them. I do them at the weekend and then I really want the …

My issue with liquid eye makeup remover has always been that it leaves a greasy, oily film behind, so I always end up having to wash around my eyes, which kind of defeats the entire purpose of having a makeup remover that is gentle for your eyes. Even very …

I wore this Metallic Long Wear Cream Shadow from Bobbi Brown quite a lot over the Christmas and New Year party period and I liked it very much. I am not good at applying eye shadow so I just wanted something with a bit of festive sparkle to …

God was so brilliant indeed to give us cycles. Menstruation is a cycle, life is a cycle, each day is a cycle and our everyday routine is a cycle. We wake up and then sleep. When we get up, do you even wonder why we feel refresh, happy and …

Since I liked the perfume Moroccan Rose by The Body Shop, I was also intrigued by the body milk product that comes along in a package. When I tried it, however, I was a little disappointed. This is because when I applied it as I did with my regular …

Fresh fruit aloe facial mask from The Face Shop is one of the products I have tried so far. My friend introduced it to me when she was in Korea. It comes in a great looking package and has a great smell too. What makes it special? It …

I’m not going to lie, I was skeptical about this product at first. I’ve used many products by Covergirl and have never exactly disliked them before, but I’ve never been really all that impressed with them. So when I purchased this product at Kmart for $7.50, I wasn’t getting …

I’ve always liked a nice tanned look and because I’m very pale I like using self tanning lotions and foams. I’ve tried a lot of self tanning products before and they all had their pros and cons. I’ve never found a product that I loved 100%. …

I tried this mascara when Revlon released a couple of months ago. When I change my makeup, I often look for a more appropriate product in case I dislike my earlier mascara or other makeup. I discovered this prior to using Clinique. When I was checking new makeup, this …

Do you ever wish that your favorite soap or lotion can be an ingredient to your makeup? Dream no more because Covergirl Simply Ageless Foundation is a combination of Covergirl and Olay. I really loved it when I first saw it and I couldn’t finish reading the magazine because …

The battle against wrinkles may be simpler than we think. A lot can be said that you can prevent aging from night creams, day creams or even from products in your kitchen. Before I tried mashing apple and combine it with non fat milk. That was my homemade moisturizer. …

Ever since I have started using makeup I have wanted to master the art of eye makeup. I want to have it to be career of mine to do well in makeup. In fact if I was not where I am now, definitely I would want to work with …

I bought this moisturizer mainly because of its price. It was only 37$ on the website and it was cheaper when I bought it in the store. Compared to my other imported brands, this was a good deal I told myself. One of the things that I am conscious …

I am a big shower gel fan these days, because I love that extra layer of scent as well as the fact that I find that many of the gels that I have tried help my dry and itchy skin get extra moisturizer. I was excited to receive a …

Among the many stocking stuffers I received for Christmas this year were several body lotions and skin care products. One of my favourites that I received is St. Ives Cucumber Melon Advanced Body Moisturizer. I am a big fan of the St. Ives facial scrub, but I have been …

Everybody wants that movie star smile with glistening white teeth that sparkle when the light hits. Unfortunately for most people, they don’t have nearly as much money to spend on expensive laser treatments. Thankfully, Colgate, Listerine, and other manufacturers have come out with home teeth whitening kits that work …

This is a relatively new product so I had’t heard much about whether it was worth purchasing or not before I picked it up from the store. Because I’m impatient, I decided to take the risk. I’m glad that I did.
It has amazing coverage. You don’t have to use …
