Pond’s Pure White Deep Cleansing Foam with Activated Carbon
The night I saw the new Pond’s commercial on TV I thought, “oh this is another whitening facial wash that really does nothing to my skin.” But before I finally press the button of the remote to switch channels, I found out that their new product has an unusual …
Quattro Razor
If you are a woman reading this who hasn’t invested in laser hair removal then you might know something about a really good razor. Now when I say really good, I mean efficient, easy grip and safe. A razor that leaves no cuts and leaves the area shaved, smoother …
Simple Kind to Skin Pore Minimising Toning Cleanser
This Pore Minimising Toning Cleanser from the Simple Kind to Skin range is a pretty good product that I think would have suited me just as much back when I was a spotty teenager as it does now that I have mature skin. I am still prone to …
Likelotion foot and leg moisturizer
Likelotion is marketed as a foot and leg moisturizer that is refreshing, non-greasy and leaves skin revitalized. It has a fresh lightly mint scent. It is sold in a can, not unlike a hair mousse can, and is sprayed the same way. I bought it on sale at a …
Silkience Bath and Shower Wash
When I take showers I’ve never been too particular about the soap I use. I’m always picking up something different and trying to see exactly what each one has to offer. I recently picked up the Silkience Bath and shower wash. I don’t really expect much from soaps, and …

Nail Life Cuticle Remover
I absolutely hate my cuticles! They get so dry and I have so many of them, that even weekly manicures don’t cut it. I really love a freshly manicured hand but unfortanutely I don’t want to spend the money to get manicures as often as I would need them, …
Pond’s DreamFlower Skin Brightening Talc
The Pond’s DreamFlower Talc has been around ever since I can remember. Although its packaging and design has changed many times over the years it is still something I am very fond of and enjoy using.

LOreal Telescopic Clean Mascara 24h

Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Time Renewal Mask

L’ Oreal foundation
One of my latest favorite foundations when it comes to beauty enhancement is a product from L’Oreal because it gives an impressive result to my face. More often, especially in the morning where I am in a hurry for work, I preferred a dry foundation rather than a wet …
Suave Naturals: Ocean Breeze Body Wash
When it comes down to picking products for personal hygiene, I’m particular picky in the designated department. Picking body washes for me is like picking out the right tomato for in the grocer. I search for bathing products in the same manner. It goes in this way, first the price, …
Farouk Chi Silk Infusion
I recently purchased a Chi ceramic flat iron from a local beauty salon. To be honest, at the time, I had no intention of purchasing a flat iron. Instead, I had gone to the salon to have my hair washed, conditioned, and straightened. The person who …
Clinique Color Surge Butter Shine Lipstick
I am not the biggest fan of lipstick. If given the choice, I would choose a lip gloss over a lipstick product any day. However, there are certain occasions where it is just more appropriate to wear lipstick, so I have recently been on the lookout for a good …
Garnier Oil Clear Eucalyptus Brightening Oil Control Scrub
It happened again that I was in search for a new facial wash because the product that I was using was not available. So I was shopping for a new facial wash and I came across this product. I have tried Garnier before but it was a different variety. What …
Suave Naturals Fresh Moisturizer
I love to have soft smoothe skin like everyone else. Problem is that I dont. I have dry skin most of the time especially my feet and legs. I have tried many lotions and none have proved to be worth using. They work for a little while but then …
L’Oreal Paris Telescopic Clean
Eye makeup is a tricky business — you want to look natural, and yet you also want cleanly defined, perfectly separated lashes. L’Oreal Paris gives its newest mascara and I’m proud they did so. It gave me the sexy long-lashed look, seductively defined lash by lash, that looks incredibly …
Pigeon compact powder in Pink
I am obsessed about my facial skin. I think it’s because I wasn’t blessed with good skin to begin with and so I exert extra, extra effort to make my skin look at least normal. I really have bad skin, name it: acne, clogged pores, flaky skin, broken capillaries, …
Bigen Speedy Hair Color Conditioner Brownish Black
My mother used to do her hair coloring in the salon. Due to the recession, we asked her to cut back on unnecessary expenses, and this included hair coloring service at the salon.

Revlon ColorStay Overtime Lipcolor Always Sienna
I can’t even say how much I love the Revlon ColorStay line of products. I’ve been using their liquid foundation for more than ten years, and really haven’t found another foundation I’ll use on as consistent a basis as this one. I don’t always wear lipsticks, because my lips …
Burt’s Bees Naturally Ageless Night Cream

The Vcare Facial Cleanser is one of my favorite everyday items.

Lancome Soleil Premium BX SPF 30 Face Cream

CoverGirl Aqua CG Smoothers
My skin tends to get extremely dry when I wear a lot of makeup or use harsh face washes. That’s why I probably spend the most money on my moisturizer. I’ve been told by makeup artists that the most important step before applying any makeup is to moisturize correctly. …

Clinique Take the Day Off Make Up Remover for Lids, Lashes and Lips
The brand Clinique was recommended to me several years ago and whenever I have the chance to visit the United States, I purchased several bottles or some of their products because it is cheaper and most of their stores usually go on sale. The introduction of this brand came …
Herbal Essences Pin Straight Shampoo
I saw the alluring pink bottle of Herbal Essences Shampoo a number of times before I actually purchased it. The reason being, I was extremely hesitant in regard to the claim that a shampoo could actually make my hair straight as the bottle claims. I have tried more expensive …
bareMinerals On-The-Spot Makeup Remover
I’ve tried a couple bareMinerals products before, like their foundation and some eye makeup, but I’ve never tried their bareMinerals On-the-Spot Makeup Remover, which to me seems like it should be a stable in every woman’s makeup bag because I can’t count the number of times I’ve needed a …

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock
Finally, there’s a sunblock that doesn’t leave me feeling like a greaseball after application. Not only does this Neutrogena Ultra Sheer stuff have an SPF of 45, but it really does live up to their promises of feeling “light” and “weightless.” First, it takes to your skin …
Maybelline New York Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara
In the world of beauty, it seems like ever week manufacturers invent new and better makeup and beauty products, and then market them to the world. Consumers of these items seem to have a never-ending appetite to try these new products, and to spend a lot of money while …
Neutrogena Triple Moisture Deep Recovery Hair Mask
You could call this experiment with the Neutrogena Triple Moisture Deep Recovery Hair Mask one of my many cosmetic failures over the years. I haven’t used a lot of Neutrogena products, and those that I have used have, ironically, not had anything to do with skin care directly, like …
St. Ives Apricot Scrub
This is a cream facial cleanser that contains granules of corn meal to help exfoliate the skin. I find this to be way too harsh to use of the face. The granules are very scratchy and feel like sharp bits of sand. The scent is ok. It doesn’t really …
White Over Night Teeth Product
Will never whiten you teeth. Never. Never, ever…ever. You would be better off going to a store, buying white spray paint and spraying it into your mouth rather than waste your time with this crappy product which offers an utterly time wasting trial offer.
Even some of the paid …

Aquis Microfiber Hair Towel
This towel is the perfect product to cut down on your hair drying time. I could not believe the difference it made. Usually, it would take forever for me to dry my hair. The price was a little higher than I wanted to pay but it was worth it. …
Lancome Juicy Tubes
I’ve always wanted one of the Juicy Tubes. Every time I’d pass the Lancome booth, I would try out one of the yummy flavors, but I couldn’t decide which to get. Good thing they came out with a special Berry Trio pack. While the price was comparable to getting …
