Garnier Essentials Complete cleansing milk (for dry & sensitive skin)
I usually make my own skin cleansers (out of sesame or coconut oil and essential oils), or - when lazy (which is often) - I use cleansing tissues, which are wonderfully convenient. And so, I am not a great expert on commercially produced cleansing milks. However, from among those that …

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 …
Biore Ultra Deep Cleansing Pore Strips

Arianne Body Powder by Avon
Between talc and cornstarch-based powders, I prefer the latter because I naturally have a reaction to talc triggering my breathing problems as an asthmatic.

Dior Lip Maximizer (Makeup)

Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets

Shiseido Maquillage Jewel Rich Gel
