Curel Foot Cream
Every summer I go through the same, painful process, as I watch my poor, abused feet get drier, scalier, and more deeply calloused and cracked. Last summer was the worst - deep, painful cracks appeared on both heals, which took weeks to heal. I was spending a …

Bed Head Spoil Me Defrizzer & Smoother
I hate living in such a humid environment. It does all sorts of bad things to my hair, making it a lot more frizzy and puffy than it has to be. It is one of the most frustrating situations ever to spend hours styling my hair and then to …
Liquid Eye Liner by Nichido
I was browsing the cosmetics section of a local department store when I decided to look at Nichido’s products. The products are relatively cheap so I decided to try their liquid eye liner out. I bought this one for only Php 68.00 (around $1.50).
The packaging comes in a small …
StriVectin Wrinkle and Stretch Mark Cream
I had been wanting to try this cream for years. I had seen it in several different magazines, on TV, and in other ads. This cream is over $100, so I figured it must work. I have stretch marks on my hips and lower back that …
Skinlogics Facial Scrub
Being acne prone, I tried a lot of acne treatments of various kinds. Creams, acne spot correctors, facial wash and many others. I tried Skinlogics Facial Scrub which was worth $10 back then. I bought it from a reseller online because I can’t find it here. I was used …

Pond’s White Beauty Detox Spotless White Cream
My mom came home one day with this Pond’s face cream. It is in a no-mess sachet which was often advertised in the television. It’s for easier and neater way to use the face cream. I like this no-mess sachet. It’s really not messy to use and it has …
Member’s Mark Antibacterial Anti-Drip Liquid Soap
We bought this at a Duty Free shop and seeing as it had an anti-drip formula, we just had to try and test it out if it really works as washing your hands and just shaking them off before you wipe them can be time-consuming and whoever wants wet …

I have been suffering from some intense dandruff problem and I have been trying out various treatments to solve the problem. Recently I came across this product Matrix anti-dandruff treatment and thought of trying it and see if it works in reducing and curing my dandruff problem.
To start with, Matrix …
Citre shine by Schwarzkopf Fresh Fusion revitalizing conditioner
I deliberately stopped using my previous conditioner due to all the skin problems emerging on my back. I’ve been getting clusters of bumpy rashes consisting of whiteheads and a few red zits which I suspect to be irritation caused by my ‘preloved’ hair conditioner. Schwarzkopf’s hair products …
Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Special Shampoo
I have dandruff, which gets really bad around the winter time when the air is dry and induces flaking. To make things worse, I have fairly dark hair which makes the flakes pop out like a snowy night, embarrassing version. I wanted to find a shampoo that could help …
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser
I have been battling with acne for 4 years now. I have tried different acne solution products from highs and lows, but all of them ended up being inefficient to control my skin problem. I have read a lot of good reviews about Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser …
SAX Anti Reflective Lens Cleaner
I have been wearing glasses all of my life. Aside from the frustration of losing them or scratching their lenses, one of the worst things about wearing glasses is cleaning them. After becoming frustrated from using items that leave a film on my eyeglass lenses, I decided …
Avon Advance Techniques Radiant Brunette Illuminating shampoo
I have my own Avon representative who knows almost everything about anything in the Avon catalogue, but this one time I ordered from another friend, who, I’ve later found out, is not that good and just tricks people into buying stuff from her. I find this system really not …

Organix Nourishing Coconut Milk Conditioner
When my hair is damaged and dried out, I like to get a bottle of the Organix Nourishing Coconut Milk Conditioner to help repair my hair naturally. I like this conditioner because it is actually made with nourishing natural ingredients like coconuts, vitamins, milk, jojoba oil and amino acids …
MAC Fluidline Eyeliner Gel
Okay, I never thought that I would pay almost $20 for an eyeliner, but I did. To be honest, I really wanted to try this product after hearing so many different friends rave about it. Even though this product is fairly expensive in my opinion, so far …
Define and Sparkle by The Body Shop
Define and Sparkle by The Body Shop is a great buy! This I assure you and take it from someone like me who used to hate wearing mascara. I am not really fond of wearing mascara. I’ve had bad experiences with other brands which are messy, very unnatural, sticky, …
GHD IV Mini Styler Ceramic Hair Straightener
I miss using hair straighteners to tame the stubborn frizz and all the number of things you can do with it for styling. The length of my hair falls flat and I worry of my face looking a little plump, and though it’s sounding completely counter to my …
Estee Lauder Illusionist Waterproof Maximum Curling Mascara
This mascara sure has a long name, but it is worth remembering. It does curl your lashes, you will notice them go up as soon as you start applying the product. However, the consistency of this mascara is rather thin, you will need two applications if you want to …
Lotus Herbals stick foundation
Choosing a right foundation is one of the toughest task in a woman’s life. First the shade of foundation should be accurate or you end up looking ghostly white or horribly tanned. Again everyone’s requirement of coverage is also different, some require high coverage foundation and …
Covergirl Outlast Lipstain
Cover Girl typically makes excellent products, but for some reason, this Outlast Lipstain just could not reach my standards. I expected so much from it that my disappointment may be a little exaggerated. This product is among the lows of Cover Girl history and should be dropped and forgotten.
I …
The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Toner
I recently purchased The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Toner. I got it at The Body Shop for only about eleven dollars. One bottle has a pretty good sized amount of product (8.4 fluid ounces to be exact). It is a green liquid with a white powder at the …
Anna Sui Eye Color Accent
I have always been skeptical on Anna Sui’s product quality because I have a perception that if a product is packaged ultra fancily, then maybe the quality is not good. Anna Sui is famous for its fancy packaging and it happens the same with this eye shadow. …
Veet Cold Wax Strips
I was looking for a change of product because I was getting bored with my Sally Hansen hair removal cream. I wanted to try cold wax strips instead. I went to Watson’s to find a good brand of cold wax. I scouted at Watson’s and found the Veet section, …
Aveeno Positively Radiant Moisturizer with SPF15
I bought a bottle of Aveeno Positively Radiant lotion with SPF 15 for my face for three different reasons. The first was that the bottle was twice the size of my old moisturizer and the second was that it was half the price. The third reason was …
Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Polish in “Rockstar Pink”
I recently purchased the Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Polish in the shade “Rockstar Pink” or #140. Normally, I would not write a review about one specific nail polish color because I just do not see the point. However, I have had such a love-hate relationship …
Skin Genesis Pore Minimizing Gel Cleanser

Baby Daily Moisture Lotion
Seriously, what could I say…I am so pleased! Not only this product has a very little price and so I bought tons and tons of this, but I also don’t have ashy shins, which is exceptionnal to me! Wow! I have tried everything you can think in the …
Champneys 50 Skin Conditioning Eye Make-Up Remover Pads
These are the most gorgeous eye make-up remover pads as they are so, so soft, very effective and they leave my eyes feeling fresh and moisturised. They are from the rather luxurious Champneys toiletries and skin care range that I keep noticing at Sainsbury’s. I do not …
Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Deep Conditioner in Moist
What I’ve realized with most products is that they claim to ‘moisturize’ your hair, but you have to use their whole line of products in order to get the desired results. And why spend money on a shampoo, conditioner, hair mask treatment, and etc if there’s only a 50/50 …
Orly Sec’ N Dry Multi-Layer Quick Dry Topcoat
I bought the Orly Sec N Dry Multi-Layer Quick Dry Topcoat based on its claims. In fact I have never bought or used any Orly products but, I know that it is one of the poplar nail products brand. I might have gone ahead and bought the …

I am in love with this color of green! It’s a perfect shade, and I love wearing it during the Fall season. I bought this online for like $5.00, because I really wanted a plain but bold looking shade of green for my nails, that wasn’t too glittery or …
Tanda Light-Optimized Anti-Blemish Gel
I bought Tanda Light-Optimized Anti-Blemish Gel for $35 online. I bought it along with other acne treatments, which actually are as effective as other acne treatments i used in the past. I actually like using this product because it hardly hurt a lot, compared to many acne treatments I …
Clinique Anti- Blemish Solution Cleansing Foam
A friend introduced Clinique Anti Blemish solution cleanser as it works really well for her. Well Clinique’s products are a little steep in price for me. It cost me $33 for a 125 ml of goodness. Since this brand is well established and highly rated, I thought I should …
Clear Mascara by Yves Rocher
I’ve been using Yves Rocher products for around a year now since being introduced to the company by a friend. For anyone that hasn’t heard of them, Yves Rocher is a french beauty company that has been going for well over 50 years and is very green …
Clinique Naturally Glossy Mascara
The latest addition to my extensive mascara collection is the Clinique Naturally Glossy mascara. Though it is rare for me to purchase any single mascara product costing more than twenty dollars, I decided to go for this one simply because I liked the packaging and was curious to see …
Derma E Very Clear Spot Blemish Treatment
I am a fan of spot correctors, and while I found a lot of acne spot correctors which worked pretty well, I like Derma E Very Clear Spot Blemish Treatment a lot because it did work, gradually and in a consistent basis. It did not lose its effectivity just …
Korres Vanilla Plum Body Butter
Earlier, someone sent me a very nice gift set. My sister in law used to ramble about korres products, so and so, I have only tried the cherry lip gloss, and she’s very incessant to the generous extent of giving me a set of korres products from the …
Jason Natural Aloe Vera Body Lotion
Since I started using Jason’s Natural Lavender Therapy Lotion I have begun to use other products of that company as well. I haven’t found any that I like as much as the lavender thus far but their products are still pretty good and I love the fact that they …
Skintimate Skin Therapy Shave Gel for Women
I have a few problems with dry skin, and shaving my legs usually leaves them feeling icky afterwards. I bought this Skintimate product because other gels, especially anything scented, left my skin very dry and unflattering. Skin Therapy is very lightly scented. Even the can looks invitingly gentle. I …
Clinique Advanced Concealer
I despise women with good skin. Why? Because I don’t have good skin. Just like heavier women scourging the existence of skinnier women, I have exhibited the same behavior toward anyone (men and women alike) with skin better than mine; I’m ashamed to say even to …
Aziza Nail Polish
Aziza is not a well-known name in the cosmetic world here in Canada where I live. So when I found Aziza nail polish at my local dollar store, I quickly bought it. After all in Europe, the Aziza name sells for about the same price as Revlon and L�Oreal …
Smooth N Shine Conditioning Hair Gel
Recently I decide to go natural with my hair. I’ve been use to putting relaxers and hair weaves in my head for the longest. I have been doing it for 15 years. It has been a very difficult transition for me. Especially because I was not use to dealing …
