ConAir Ion Shine Ceramic Styler 174XTR
I once had very thick long hair before, a blow dry session could go as long as an hour and by then, my hair’s reduced to a fried state. Apart from hastening drying time, I look forward to drying my hair because it helps greatly in straightening my …
Clinique almost powder make-up in light color
I got this make up early this year from Selfridges store in London for the price of £18. In my own personal opinion I would always go for a powdered make-up rather than the liquid ones because I don’t like the feel of the oily texture of my …
Neutrogena Skin Clearing Blemish Treatment Foundation
I tried this foundation way long before mineral powder foundation came out, I bought this foundation when I was still looking and trying to find a liquid foundation that would work for me and something that I wouldn’t totally hate.
There were a few reasons that I decided to …
Neutrogena Acne Stress Control Cream Wash

Shiseido Make Up Luminizing Satin Eye Color in Fondant

Loreal Pure Zone Anti-Imperfection Moisturizer
I like to play and work hard. For me, an active living means doing all the stuffs I never thought I could do. I had been engaged into different hobbies and jobs. For this kind of lifestyle, I always need to put my best …
Bic Twin Select Silky Touch Shaver
Shaving is something that I would never deal with if I did not have to. I don’t particularly like using regular razors, but will because they give a close shave. I often stick with disposable razors because I don’t use them all of the time and also like to …
Everyday Minerals’ Apple blush
I recently bought a mineral make-up online. Just to let you know, I live in the Philippines, so an online purchase from the US is quite hard for me. Anyways, I got curious with Everyday Minerals’ blush in Apple, as I have heard good reviews about it. To make …
NYC Lip Plumper in #473 Peach Parfait

Korres Cosmetics
Korres cosmetics have been around for a while but not many people know about them because they have always been a really small line that focuses on making a few beauty products really well. The reason I started using Korres makeup was because the products are all natural …
L’Oreal Collagen Moisture Filler Night Cream

Rimmel Match Perfection Skin Tone Adapting Concealer
Match Perfection is a great concealer from the Rimmel brand and it is possibly the best I have ever tried for the money. I think it was about £6 which is pretty good for a quality concealer and this one is really worth that and more. It …
Maybelline Unstoppable Smudge-Proof Waterproof Eyeliner
Maybelline Unstoppable Smudge-Proof Waterproof Eyeliner was given to me as holiday stocking stuffer. I was so excited. I had actually run out of eyeliner from going out so much for Christmas events and New Year’s parties were just around the corner. I have to admit, I was very …
Clinique Redness Solutions Instant Relief Mineral Powder
I am basing this review on my use of a large sample of this Clinique product from the Clinique counter. If I wanted to buy it, it would cost a whopping £24 for a 24g pot which comes complete with its own brush, but based on my experience …
Chapstick classic spearmint
As a teenage girl, I always happen to pass by a cute display of lip balms behind the checkout counter in the supermarket. One thing comes to everyone’s mind —“ Chap stick. Admit it, as an innocent teenager we all had our share of Chapstick stories. I guess that’s …
Cover Girl TruBlend Foundation
Like many women, I have spent a lot of time and money searching for a perfect foundation. Over the years, I feel like I have tried them all. What I was looking for was something that would offer medium coverage, last all day, feel and look good …
Bourjois Chocolate Bronzing Powder
Bourjois Chocolate Bronzing Powder is one of my favourite bronzers. I love the fact that it actually looks like a bar of chocolate which makes it unique and different to other bronzers. I thik it’s great that it has this beautiful scent of chocolate too. I normally prefer cosmetics …
Pure Refined Emu Oil
“Advance Pure Refined Emu Oil by Longview Farms” - I bought this product on the Internet because they claimed that using it regularly on the scalp would promote hair growth and arrest hair fall.
For me it promoted hair fall! The hair stuck together - because the oil is …

I am used to putting on a liquid foundation with a sponge, but when I was asked to try Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick in Beige I have to admit I was a little intrigued. I had never really used a stick foundation before and it was an interesting experience. …
Mane and tail Deep Moisturizing Shampoo
Most people say that Mane and Tail Deep Moisturizing Shampoo is a great shampoo to use if you want to make your hair thicker and healthier thus I also tried using it more than four years ago and to tell you honestly, I was quite disappointed with the result.
When …
Sephora Collection Outrageous Volume Mascara
I purchased Sephora’s own line of mascara called Outrageous Volume in ultra black after reading many glowing reviews of the product online back in March when it was a brand new product. It also was fairly cheap as far as what mascaras sell for on Sephora’s website at $15.
The …
Super Starter Kit BreathRx Brand
I bought this Super Starter Kit only once, but I never bought any BreathRx products after that ever again. It cost me Canadian $27 and I thought it was a good kit to try to freshen my breath and combat bad breath. However, after finishing the whole …

Hair Mousse
I am a serial hair products buyer. I’m always on the hunt for the next best hair styler! This time I bought Down Under Fruitkicks Bodifying Hair Mousse in maximum hold.

Maybelline Color Delights Cream Shadow

Bobbi brown Creamy concealer kit
This product was one of those products that everyone raved about, I came across it in the same way. I went to Korea for a little vacation and my cousin was raving about his concealer, she was so in love with this product that I should try it out. …
Redken All Soft Conditioner
Redken All Soft Conditioner should be considered a splurge at around $18 for a small bottle. That being said, it is worth the price in my opinion. Also, you only need to apply a small amount to get results, so the small bottle actaully lasts a long …
L’Oreal Paris Elvive Sublime Curls Shampoo NEW
Since I tried L’Oreal Paris Elvive Nutri —“ Gloss shampoo I have been wondering if all the other shampoos from this series were as good as that one. About a week ago I saw that L’Oreal Paris Elvive Maxi format shampoos were on discount in a cosmetic shop …
