Neutrogena Rapid Clear Treatment Pads
Neutrogena products have long had a reputation for effectively pimple-busting the faces of teens the world over, and this is not without just due. Having tried this product myself, and having passed it on to my children to try, I’ve found the product to be an exceedingly and rapidly …
White Rain Volumizing Extra Hold Mousse
I was getting tired of my same old hair style and wanted to go for a different look. I didn’t know exactly what I wanted and looked through a few magazines and websites. I then figured out that I wanted the wet and wavy look. In order for me …
Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes Eyeliner

Jane Endless Eyes Liquid Eye Liner
I bought this eyeliner in Charcoal - a dark gray, slightly metallic color.
THE PRICE:
This eyeliner costs about $7.00, once sales tax was factored in. Eyeliner is one of the things I’m willing to pay a little bit more for, but $7.00 for metallic eyeliner isn’t bad. Most metallic eyeliners …
Nivea Fruity Shine Lip Balm in Strawberry
I would say that this is probably the best lip product I have ever tried! I have been using this for more than four years now and it never fails me!
About 7 years ago, I had this severe food allergy on my lips, which caused blisters and rashes. I …
Yves Rocher Purifying Skin Treatment
This Yves Rocher Purifying Treatment comes with a 2 step system. Step 1 is a botanical scrub and a step 2 is a botanical purifying peel off mask. I’ve tried other face products by Yves Rocher and some of them I got really good results from and some of …
Super Full Midnight Mascara
Super full Midnight Mascara is overall good mascara. Usually I have trouble finding good mascara that last long, and make my lashes look long and full. My only complaint with this mascara is that it is expensive, it cost about nine dollars. Overall though, it is good mascara that …
Olay Foaming Face Wash for Sensitive Skin
When I was looking for a gentle facial cleanser I turned to use Olay Foaming Face Wash for Sensitive Skin. I gave it a try for a few weeks and ended up not liking it at all because it caused my skin too breakout with so much acne and …
Rimmel Moisture Renew lipstick

Burt’s Bees Radiance Day Crème

Gap Favorite Lip Balm- Lemon Sugar
My grandmother gave me Gap Favorite Lip Balm for Christmas last year. I use lip balm all the time, but don’t pay much more than a dollar on it. Most brands do the trick for me, but I was quite thrilled to see that this was great …
Neutrogena Ageless Intensives Lifting Concentrate Eye Cream
I am a huge fan of Neutrogena face and hair products, and when I found Neutrogena Ageless Intensives Lifting Concentrate Eye Cream on a one day half off sale at my local drug store, I just had to get it. I’m in my mid thirties and despite always having …

Johnson’s Clean and Clear Toner
I’ve been using this Toner off and on for the last 15 years. I think it was actually 15 years ago that this came out, and it has mostly worked for me over the years.
I have always suffered with bad skin. My skin is Oily, greasy and I get …
Elemis Maximum Moisture Day Cream
I bought several Elemis products during a recent spa visit, the Maximum Moisture Day Cream being recommended to me by the lady performing the facials. It wasn’t cheap at $60 for a 1.7oz bottle but as it promises to fight the first signs of ageing (I’m 35) I thought …

Rexona Skin Light Deo-Lotion with Sunflower Oil
I spoil myself sometimes and go for a trip or two to the spa every month. It’s practically more of a necessity than relaxation, since I intend to go there for a waxing appointment. Whatever hair comes after that, I do a pathetic effort of shaving with a …
Burt’s Bees Hair Repair Shea and Grapefruit Deep Conditioner
One of the natural hair repair conditioners I like to use for repairing dry damaged hair that is breaking easily is the Burt’s Bees Hair Repair Shea and Grapefruit Deep Conditioner.

Olay age defying cream

I am so excited to write this review about the Mai Couture Blush Papier because it is one of the most unique beauty products I have ever tried out. I never would have imagined that I would one day be applying blush with what basically amounts to a sheet …
Ellana Mineral Foundation
I almost found a holy grail* product in Ellana minerals but sadly, it broke me out.
Last year, I road-tested the Ellana mineral foundation and finishing powder for more than a week. There were a lot of things I liked about it at the start. First of all, the foundation …

Plumeria Body Splash by Bath and Body Works
I received this perfume as a Christmas present from my boyfriend’s sister as well. And with all honesty, I prefer this a million times over Victoria’s Secret. I have not seen a real plumeria flower but I certainly love its scent. It is a lot sweeter and milder at …

La Roche-Posay Effaclar M Daily Mattifying Moisturizer
I’ll be honest and admit my ignorance here and say that I wasn’t even entirely sure what a mattifying moisturizer was supposed to do. Even now, after the fact when I know what it is, it seems to be a little counterproductive to be a mattifying product and a …
Johnson & Johnson First Aid Adhesive Pads With Neosporin
Johnson & Johnson usually has quality products and they certainly maintained their good reputation with the First Aid Adhesive pads with Neosporin. These are the perfect thing for scraped knees and elbows or foot injuries, anything really that requires a bandage. So unlike your typical band aid strips. I …
Too Faced Lock Down Ultimate Creaseless Cream Eye Shadow Set
This Too Faced Lock Down Ultimate Creaseless Cream Eye Shadow set comes with the cream eye shadow shades in I’m Guilty and Jail Bait. I don’t necessarily like a lot of cream eye shadows because I don’t get great results most of the time, there’s only been a few …
Smashbox Lash DNA mascara
I don’t generally wear makeup often, and when I do it’s very minimal. I just don’t like to have anything on my face. It’s why I choose to wear contact lenses even though they’re a pain to put in sometimes. The times I do put effort into wearing makeup …
Noxzema Original Deep Cleansing Cream
It seems as if all the cleansing creams and treatments out there for acne are the same. Unless you have a favorite that’s been working for you for years, going to the beauty aisle at your local drugstore can be very confusing. I have tried tons of different acne …
Eve Lom Cleansing Cream
I recently purchased the Eve Lom Cleansing Cream. The first thing I have to note about this product is that it was extremely expensive. A tiny container with only 3.3 ounces costs $75. I ordered it online through Amazon. I do not think that I have ever spent so …

Skinfood Fresh Lime Oil Body Gel

Master Hair Styling Gel Dandruff Control
Living with someone who has a dandruff problem is not easy. As much as I love my man, his dandruff problem has always driven me crazy. A few weeks ago, he bought himself a tub of Master Hair Styling Gel Dandruff Control that he claimed would help solve his …
MAC Lust Lipglass
Like the other MAC lipglasses (except for clear), Lust lipglass comes in a cylindrical tube with a doefoot (sponge) wand applicator. Although MAC lipglass is kind of pricy (about $14.00), I think that you get a decent amount of gloss for your money and the quality is …

The Body Shop Watermelon Born Lippy Glossy Lip Balm
