Lux Velvet Touch Indulgent Beauty Bar
I still remember the television commercial for Lux soaps. Back then, their selling point was its richness, and this was my soap of choice. I loved its rich, velvety suds which left my skin soft. Growing up, I stopped using bar soaps mainly because I was scared that since …
Barielle Intensive Nail Renewal Oil Treatment

Alberto Vo5 Nourishing Oasis Revive and Shine Shampoo
I usually use Garnier shampoos but a while back I wanted to try something different just to take a break from my usual. I have naturally dry hair which is kind of dull and not very shiny so I am always interested in trying shampoos and any other hair …
The Body Shop Mango Body Butter
This is another Mango product from The Body Shop that I like. The actual product is a good product, but it is more the scent that I buy this one for.
I got this as part of a set and it consisted of 4 little 50ml tubs of different …
Loreal Colour Riche Lipstick
I like L’oreal and I use many of their products, but their lipsticks are not worth the money. It’s more a lip moisturizer than a lipstick.
Girls, look out because the color is way lighter than it looks in the tube. I had Sandstone and on my lips it …
Old Spice Antiperspirant and Deodorant in Fiji
I am not really a sweaty person but when I sweat, I smell quite awful. I also just don’t like my natural stench to rub off on my clothes, especially if I treasure my clothes and they can’t be washed too often. Hence, I am always on the lookout …

Alpha Hydrox EHA Enhanced Lotion

H2O Plus Green Tea Antioxidant Face Complex (For sensitive skin)
H2O Plus Green Tea Antioxidant Face Complex is perfect for anyone with dry or overly sensitive skin. People with sensitive skin generally have to pay substantially more for products that don’t over dry, over clean or agitate the skin.
I’m not sure what it is (perhaps the green tea) but this …
Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula Soap with Vitamin E
I’ll admit that I’m a beat of a cheapskate when it comes to certain things, and soap is always a product I skimp on. I think it’s only purpose is to get you clean and anything else is superfluous. I normally spend about $1.50 on three bars of soap, …
Conair 1″ Professional Ceramic Straightener
I never leave home without my Conair Professional Straightener! This is the third one of these I have purchase (the first one I left in a hotel, the second I used so much it broke). I have been straightening my hair for about 18 years now and this …

Lancome Hydra Intense Hydrating Gel Mask
I was really disappointed in this mask, I honestly thought it would be a product well worth it, especially since it’s by Lancome, I thought high end, and good quality! But this was a complete waste of money for me, I regret purchasing it because it did not benefit …

Awapuhi Shampoo
I have been using Awapuhi Shampoo by Paul Mitchell for about 10 years. It is fabulous. Sometimes it is hard to find so I use other brands and I notice the difference in my hair quickly. The Awapuhi shampoo leaves my hair shinier and healthier.
The Awapuhi shampoo …

Before applying lipstick I like to apply a primer product, at one time I would simply use a quick drying moisturiser as a base for my lip make-up but since discovering Lancome’s Le Rouge Moisturising Absolute Base I haven’t found anything better!
The basic premise of the product is that …
Body Shop Vitamin C Facial Spritz
I am of the mind that the Universe created The Body Shop because I must’ve been a very good girl in another lifetime. So far, I have visited countless stores in four different countries and each one still impresses me with their amazing products created from exquisitely natural ingredients.
One of …

Loreal HIP Color truth Eyeliner
This is definitely my best eyeliner that I have ever tried. No where on it the item or the packaging does it say waterproof, but it is. The cream eyeliner comes in a little glass case with a little brush to apply it with. It is a little pricey …
EverSoft Clear Care Oil Control and Lightening Toner
I bought the EverSoft Clear Care Oil Control and Lightening Toner along with the matching EverSoft Clear Care Oil Control and Lightening Facial Foam. Both of these seem to have similar ingredients and claims which is why I bought them both so as to get the maximum benefit.

There are two main things that made me love MEOW Glow powder:

2. Unlike other highlighter product …

Urban Decay Urban Defense Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 in Bodyguard
Even though I’m a huge Urban Decay fan, I’m not a big fan of this tinted moisturizer. There are a lot of problems with this specific color as well as the overall line. I definitely think there are better, similar products on the market, most of them at a …
Almay Clear Complexion Concealer Light
Every once in a great while, I’ll luck out and my complexion will clear up enough that I can get away with using a concealer and some powder, verses having to use an all-over foundation. When I was a teen and my complexion was at its worst, I used …
Jessica McClintock Perfume Body Lotion

TRESemme Smooth & Silky Shampoo
I’ve tried a few TRESemme products in the past and have honestly really enjoyed each of them for a variety of different reasons. I can’t say that I’ve ever really gotten salon results out of using their products, but that’s not to say they aren’t still good products, each …
Avon Totally Kissable Lipstick Make Out Red
I have an Avon Totally Kissable Lipstick Make Out Red in my makeup kit, which I ordered from my Avon lady last year. I like this lipstick better than the other lipsticks I own from the same brand.

Josie Maran Lip Gloss

Cover Girl Shadow Squease
For the longest time, I used Cover Girl powder eye shadow in the color Champagne. It was a light shimmery eye shadow that did not look or feel too heavy. It was a good product, but there was also a lot of creasing after a few hours. About a …

Garnier BodyLight Lotion

Johnson’s Daily Essentials Refreshing Gel Facial Wash

Bobbie Cuticle Remover Solution
I’m a bad manicurist if it pertains keeping my nails buffed out. I oftentimes leave it to the nail salon if I really need to have an extensive mani-pedi. I constantly sanitize my hands as a precaution, rather more of a compulsion which causes dryness and discoloration …
Benefit Boi-ing Concealer
My sister was coming home from a long vacation in California. I was surprised when she handed me a Benefit Boi-ing concealer that she got there for $18. She got me the one in medium which I think is the perfect color to cover up any imperfections on my …
VMV Ooh La Lashes Mascara
