Malizia Bon Bons Mandarin and Cotton Candy shampoo and body wash
I really haven’t bought any Malizia product for ages. I used to buy their deodorants when I was younger because they all smell nice but then I stopped because Dove and Rexona came out and they had anti perspirant effect while Malizia didn’t. I don’t really even pay …
VMV Two-Way Powder Foundation
I was given this two-way powder foundation as a free gift when I purchased an entire set of Glykeros products from them. I like VMV because its Glykeros line was my first foray into their products, and it gave me great results! I used this powder foundation at once, …
Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion
Aveeno products are always good for sensitive skin. I use this moisturizer right before I go to bed so I can wake up with smoother skin the next day. I also use this at night only because it can be a little too sticky to wear during a hot …

The Velvet Apricot Lip Balm by The Body Shop
My lips would certainly turn dry and flaky during cold weather. Of course this could lead to lip irritations or sores if not given due treatment. This is the reason why I always make sure that I have a lip protector during cold seasons. I noticed that …
Avon Solutions PT White Whitening Eye Cream
My make-up magazines keep telling me that I have to start putting on eye cream in my 20s. I have followed this advice (although not too religiously as I would like), and now that I am in my 40s, I still get complimented that I look ten years younger. …
Chapstick Lip Moisturizer SPF 15
As a person with perpetually dry lips, I find that it’s very difficult to find the perfect lip moisturizer. I don’t like lip balms which are greasy/mushy and it just seems gross to stick your finger in the same pot over and over. Lip gloss is equally …
Sainsbury’s Winter Honey Bath Foam
Sainsbury’s Winter Honey Bath Foam, part of the company’s Active Naturals range, was a new product for me when I saw it on the shelves of my local supermarket, and since it was slightly discounted even from its (fairly low) standard price, I thought it would be worth giving …
Carmex
Don’t ever buy this because I hate this stuff! Carmex is a lip balm that comes in different flavors like regular (what I own), cherry, and strawberry, and there are different containers like the squeezy tube which is what I have, the jar, and the normal lip balm tube. …

Dabur Herbolene, Pure Petroleum Jelly with Aloe Vera and Vitamin E
Usually there is nothing much added in petroleum jelly and usually comes in its pure form. When I saw the Dabur Herbolene petroleum jelly with Aloe Vera extracts and Vitamin E I thought what a brilliant idea why didn’t anyone think of it before?
Well to start with, I …
Foot Works Hydrating Foot Serum with Vitamin E and Aloe

L’Oreal Ever Pure Sulfate Free Smoothing Shampoo
L’Oreal Ever Pure Sulfate Free Smoothing Shampoo has everything going for it but fails to live up to its promises. I was originally attracted to this product because of the sulfate free nature of the range. I was anxious to get away from chemical laden hair products, …
Stila Jewel Eyeshadow Palette
This palette is such a must have! I got it as soon as I saw it sparkling in the corner of Sephora. This cost me $32, which is a bit steep for four eyeshadows, but it was worth every penny. These eyeshadows are so glittery and shimmery and absolutely …
Murad Acne Spot Treatment

L’Oreal Telescopic Mascara
This is the first mascara that I’ve tried in the Telescopic mascara line by L’Oreal, this one is after all the original one. This is though however not my favorite, I like the Telescopic Explosion mascara by L’Oreal much more than this one.
The packaging is kind of cool, …

Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Liquid Foundation

Vital Radiance Line Smoothing Makeup
I don’t really wear foundation that often because I feel like my face doesn’t really need the coverage, and I can do just fine with a bit of concealer to cover up my problem areas. When I apply foundation, it seems to be a little cakey looking on my …
BH Cosmetics 88 Color Matte Palette

DuWop Pink Shimmer Lip Venom
This is probably one of the most expensive lip products that I have ever purchased. For almost $20 I expected a product that would do so much more. This is supposed to be a lip plumper, but it did absolutely nothing for lips except irritate them. …
Revlon ColorStay Liquid Eye Pen
I recently ran out of eyeliner so I had to purchase the Revlon ColorStay Liquid Eye Pen. I have really been enjoying a lot of the products in the Revlon ColorStay line, but this eyeliner really disappointed me. It is the sort of product that I will just end …
L’Oreal Elseve Re-nutrition
I tried the sample pack of L’Oreal Elseve Re-nutrition replenishing mask for my hair. I got the sample pack for very dry hair. The product did not really condition my hair despite following all the directions given on the sample pack. I was looking for bouncy …

Burts Bees Honey Lip Balm

OPI My Private Jet
So this polish only caught my eye because it’s such a different color. I am not even sure what to call it, and I think that it is almost impossible to describe it in words. Unfortunately, you ladies are stuck with only words, and no pictures of this insanely …
Clinique instant lift for eyebrows
I normally love Clinique products but I have recently found a product that I don’t recommend to others. I recently purchased Clinique’s instant lift for brow pencil in 03 deep brown. This pencil was too soft and thick for an eyebrow pencil. For an eyeliner, the consistency and feel …
