Redken Color Extend Shampoo
This is my first product of the Redken line that I have ever tried, and I am so amazed at how much of a difference I can see in simply the formulation of the product in one use. I love the fact that this shampoo lathers so much, and …
Clean and Clear Oil Fighting Formula
There are very few products that have actually been able to clear up my acne. I tried Clean and Clear oil fighting formula by Johnson & Johnson on a whim in the hopes that it might actually clear things up even a little bit. My skin is excessively …
Sunsilk shampoo
Sunsilk is a popular brand of shampoo manufactured by Unilever. I have been using the Pink Sunsilk for months and I am very satisfied with its effects. After my battle of finding a good shampoo, I can say that Sunsilk is the winner for me. My hair feels very …
Philosophy Dark Shadows Eye Cream
I struggle with dark circles and eye puffiness all my life. I have my constant supply of concealer because I will not be presentable without them. I look like the life has sucked all out me if you see me without my concealer. My dark circles are so dramatically …
Make Up For Ever’s HD Microfinish Powder
I’ve heard a lot of good reviews about this powder, and I’ve seen the proof with resulting make-up looks on people, that I had to buy it for myself! Now Make Up For Ever is a brand/company that I’ve known for years, and who I’m very familiar with. They …
Fekkai Hair Shampoo

Avon Super Shock Mascara
I have tried several Avon beauty products and the majority of them are either a very big hit or a very big miss, and the Avon SuperShock Mascara was actually one of the very few products from Avon that has fallen somewhere in the middle. The mascara is …
Lakhme lip liners
Along with the lakhme lipsticks I also use the lakhme lip liners. Because without the lip liners the lip makeup is never complete. I use the lakhme lip liners, which are very sharp and are very good. I only give the light touch up with the …
Bobbi Brown Glitter Lip Gloss
This Bobbi Brown Glitter Lip Gloss was included in a limited-edition lip and cheek palette that Bobbi released last holiday season (I believe). I think the shade that is in the palette was an exclusive, limited-edition shade (called Golden Topaz). I don’t see it on Bobbi’s website among all …
Avon Moisture Therapy Hand Body Lotion
Another Avon lotion that I’ve already tried is Avon Moisture Therapy Hand and Body Lotion. I’ve actually used both the Olive and the Oatmeal variants which are being sold at a regular price of PHP 330 each. However it was sold at only PHP169 one time so I grabbed …
Hollywood Beauty Olive Oil
Because the scalps of African American women tend to be dry, most prefer to oil their hair using hair greases. However, I do not like the way that hair grease makes my hair look and feel. Grease gives my hair a limp and oily appearance, and it …

The Product
Blush Pink shade is actually far from pink. Instead, it is more of a tan color with no shimmers.

This has a fruity scent but I was not able …

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength no chip nail color
I’ve seen Sally Hansen products all over but it wasn’t until I was working at Walgreens did I really pay attention to the brand. I’ve heard loads of positive feedbacks about their products, especially their nail polishes and decided I’d try it out for myself to see if it …

Dermalogica Skin Hydrating Facial Masque
Generally, it’s hard to hunt for face masks that are appropriate for my skin as I’m likely to be oily, except for Dermalogica’s skin hydrating facial masque. I discovered the product while I was staying at a swiss rest house during wintertime. I examined my face in …
Soap and Glory Glow lotion

Skin Food Potiron au Lait Eye Cream

Caudalie Instant Foaming Cleanser
I bought this foaming wash when I was trying new things out. Given that my former facial was was really causing me zits here and there. I was hoping that a new facial cleanser will give me a new change. This product is based in Paris. I did not …
Dove original anti-perspirant
I needed a new deodorant and I found Dove original anti-perspirant on sale for $2.99CDN at my local drug store. I had never bought this particular Dove product before, usually it is priced at $4.99CDN which I find a little steep for an anti-perspirant, even if it is a …

Bath and Body Works Coco Cabana Body Splash
I love wearing Coco Cabana Body Splash by Bath and Body Works in the summer. In fact, this is my favorite casual fragrance for the summer. Although it is a typical body splash in that it is not very long lasting, I even enjoy refreshing this scent …
Bobbi Brown Metallic Lip Color in Pretty Pink
Bobbi Brown has created a holiday palette that includes five different shades of pink lipstick, one shade of gold lipstick, and a lip brush for $45. It’s kind of strange that she would think of combining pink and gold for the holiday season, because they are not traditional holiday …
Benefit Naturally Lush Lashes
I really love these Benefit Naturally Lush Lashes. I don’t wear false eye lashes all the time but I definitely love wearing them and where them.
I really liked that these false eye lashes came with their own glue to use with them, most of the false eye lashes …

Shu Uemura 5F natural eye brush
The Shu Uemura 5F natural eye brush is my absolute favorite eyeliner brush! I can’t say enough good things about it, and although I own several high-end lining brushes, the 5F is the only one I use.
The 5F natural brush is made of soft yet firm, top-quality sable bristles–not …
Donna Michelle Strawberry Scented Lip Gloss

Dove Body Wash

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 …
Sunsilk Co-Creations Anti-Dandruff Solution Shampoo

Chanel Cristalle lip gloss in Cafe Glace
Café Glace, one of the line of Cristalle lip gloss products by Chanel, looks like a boring, blah lipgloss in the tube, but when applied it transforms into a brownish/reddish lip gloss with a surprising hint of gold when applied. It is a complex lip gloss that looks …
Myra Vitaglow Tinted Facial Moisturizer
I confess I only bought this product for two wrong reasons: first because the store ran out of my favorite Maxipeel concealer , and second because this was on promotional price at the time. I was too lazy to go to another store so I just picked up the …
Phillips Norelco Razor
I don’t like shaving much, but every now and then I need a clean shave so that’s where a good razor comes in. I have the Norelco Razor, and for most of the time I think it works fine, but it has more short comings than good benefits.
I …
CoverGirl & Olay Eye Concealer

Alpecin, C1 Caffeine Shampoo
Ok. Fine. I admit it.
There’s a bit less hair on the crown of my head than there used to be.
Happy?

Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Deep Conditioner
This is a review for the Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Deep Conditioner, available at almost all grocery stores and drugstores.

Lancome Juicy Gelee Lip Gloss

Maybelline Color Sensational #140 Fuchsia Fever Lipstick
Last December, I bought Maybelline 140 Fuchsia Fever lipstick that costs around 400 pesos, if I am not mistaken. However, I remember it was on sale. I do not have a pink lipstick with a hint or red, like fuchsia, so I picked Maybelline Fuchsia Fever for that.
The packaging …
