L’Occitane Eau Des Baux Stick Deodorant

L’Oreal Everpure Conditioner
L’Oreal’s new line of sulfate free products has been heavily advertised and promoted recently. I’ve tried the whole line and it is a pretty decent attempt by L’Oreal to cater to the latest haircare “trend” of reducing or eliminating sulfates in haircare products.
First, this product contains no sulfates (obviously). …

MAC Zoomfast Black Lash
I know that MAC is probably every girl’s staple, but who’s to say that I don’t happen to really like it? I think MAC is overrated, but, and this is a big but here, their mascaras are wonderful. They do everything they are supposed to do. So even though …
