Urban Decay Shadow Primer Potion
I don’t often use eye shadow primers, but I got this Urban Decay one as part of a package I bought. Although I only use it on special occasions, it’s a really great product that extends the life of my eyeshadow.
I have very small eyelid creases, so I’ve always …
Crest Whitening Expressions Toothpaste
Crest Whitening Expressions Toothpaste is a relatively new product by Crest. I first saw it in the store about a month and a half ago, offered as a special deal together with a small bottle of Crest mouth rinse for only $3. The flavor, vanilla and mint, had gotten …
Neutrogena’s T-Gel Shampoo
When it comes to shampoo I have used at least five products before finally settling on Neutrogena’s T-Gel original shampoo. It is a pale green colored, thicker than usual shampoo. It looked sort of a medicated product. But it is readily
available in Wal-Mart or any other Pharmacies and I …
Victoria’s Secret Love Spell Nourishing Shampoo
One of the most nicest scented shampoos I have ever used was the Victoria’s Secret Love Spell Nourishing Shampoo. It smelled so good and really did an amazing job with cleansing and nourishing my hair without drying it out and stripping the natural oils from it.
This amazing nourishing shampoo …

L’oreal HIP Truth Cream Liner in Black
I am pretty eyeliner challenged and heard that cream liners give you more control over the liner. And not only am I challenged but they smudge, smear and fade on me anyway so for a long time I thought I would just not even attempt eyeliner. …
CO Bigelow Mentha Lip Buffer
The CO Bigelow Mentha Lip Buffer gets a rating of 8 out of 10 in my opinion. It is one of those products that I absolutely love using but that I do not think is worth the price. If I’m being completely honest about this product, it is one …
L’Oreal HiP Metallic Shadow Duos Gilded Eyeshadow
So I was planning on going to this party last weekend when I noticed that one of my eyeshadows went missing! It was a shimmery gold eyeshadow, and I payed a lot of money for it because I purchased it from MAC cosmetics, and I’m sure we all know …
Estee Lauder Beautiful Perfumed Body Lotion
Recently, I took the opportunity to try Estee Lauder Beautiful Perfumed Body Lotion and though I know many people adore this product, including my mother who swore by anything Estee Lauder, I came away from it with mixed feelings.
Let’s start with what is probably the most important factor as …
Clinique Take the Day Off Make Up Remover
As a young woman in her 20s, I didn’t see the purpose of a makeup remover. Doesn’t washing it off suffice? Why spend additional money on a product that does the same job as cheap soap and water? I didn’t understand the purpose of this product …
Himalaya Neem Face Wash
Himalaya Neem Face Wash, a product of Himalaya Herbal Healthcare Ltd is a soothing and anti bacterial Neem and Turmeric face wash that is suitable for all skin types.
Previously I was not in a habit of using a face wash as I thought that face wash was meant only …
Ada Antibacterial Cocoa Butter Soap
One bath soap I used for the first time very recently was the “Ada Antibacterial Cocoa Butter Soap”. I’d actually never even heard of it before that, but since I had gotten it along with some other things from someone, I decided to try it.
A part of me …
Ban (Paradise Winds) deoderant
It’s a funny thing to pay attention to, but I’ve found that Ban deoderant (Paradise Winds) is my all-time favorite deoderant. It lasts forever, (on the stick and off the stick)–and has a wonderful smell. I usually rotate the brands I buy, but have found that Ban …
Pantene Pro-v Shampoo Total Care
I have been using Pantene Pro-v Shampoo Total Care for a period of 6 months now. This was after a long search of a shampoo that fitted my hair type. My hair is thick, dull and required alot of shampoo for it to penetrate throughout the hair and despite …
Bath and Body - Body Butter (Sweet Pea)
Bath and Body Body Butter is the number one lotion for me. It’s quite hard to buy it here in our country, as there is really no store that sells bath and body products, but it is worth looking for, or asking for whenever a relative goes abroad.
I love …
Purell Instant Hand Sanitizer
With all the latest news reports about evil germs and bacteria everywhere, I needed something I could carry with me. Purell Instant Hand Sanitizer worked perfectly for me because I am able to just place it in my purse and just walk out. It has a nice pleasant scent …
CV CadeaVera Face Peel-Off Mask
This was again one of the products I bought by accident, I was searching for a peeling mask to use before I would use a anti-acne mask and made a mistake by buying a peel-of mask, a mask that I did not know even existed. But it was one …
Technic Adorn and Adore Total Colour Palettes
I like to save money with makeup, and as long as I like the quality, I am happy to pay less for a product that doesn’t have a well known brand name.
I have been using the Technic range of makeup products for about 2 years now, and I am …
ELF 32 Piece Eyeshadow Palette
I love it when I can purchase a set or a palette where I get a whole bunch of products for one small price. That was the case recently when I purchased the ELF 32 Piece Eyeshadow Palette. I was able to get the entire palette for just five …
L’Oreal Vive Pro Nutri Gloss Conditioner
I have been fairly disappointed in this product. I have very long hair that is coarse and dry. I bought L’Oreal Vive Pro Nutri Gloss Conditioner, For Medium To Long, Damaged Hair. I always need a conditioner that is very thick and rich. This one fits that description, but …
Olay Total Effects Antiageing Cream
I have some problems with my face skin. When using the makeup just lasted for a while. My face skin is oily skin types a with large pores so that looks like orange peel. It’s not unsightly. In addition, the wrinkles around the eyes is also very disturbing. I …
CONAIR: LadyPro Wet/Dry Rechargeable Shaver
I saw this product while watching Home Shopping Network, and I was really interested. I have had it with razors, creams and waxes. So I thought I’d try my luck with new technology and hoped I would get smoother legs. It was priced at $30 plus shipping. A whooping …
Bath and Body Works Escape Collection
Hello I would like to tell you my opinions about Bath and Body Works Escape Collection. Right now I just have the three scents: Bali mango, Fiji passion, and Hawaii coconut. I have to say I was a little surprised although I shouldn’t be to see new scents that …
Burt’s Bees Peppermint Foot Lotion
One of my favorite natural peppermint foot lotions to use throughout the year is Burt’s Bees Peppermint Foot Lotion. It comes in a 3 ounce fluid tube and is very easy to squeeze to get the foot lotion out of when I need to use it. Best of all …
Kmax professional strength Vitamin K Cream
Kmax is a small container of cream that is suppose to help rid your body of spider veins. I had been dealing with spider veins almost all my life and have never had a product that actually worked on my spider veins. I’m the type of person who looks …
Pond’s Cold Cream (deep cleans and removes make-up)
I have decided to get Pond’s cold cream one day when I was doing some shopping. I found it next to the makeup section in the store. I found it in a plain white tub like container with light green coloring on the label. “Ponds” is a trusted brand.
I …
Maybelline Clear Smooth Shine Free Face Powder
I have used a number of face powders. I have been using face powders since my third year in high school and there are some which really didn’t suit my skin. When college came, I found one face powder product that finally worked well for me. It’s the Maybelline …
Neutrogena - Clean Lash Tint - 01 Black
It’s such an attractive idea to wear something on your lashes that you don’t have to worry about taking time to remove at the end of the day. The idea is nice. The reality is that it sounds too good to be true. It is.
This lash tint barely even …
African Pride Magical Grow Hair Dress
For some reason my hair has become really dry and brittle over time. I don’t like the fact that it starts with my scalp being dry, then my hair and it leads to some of my hair falling out at times. I really don’t like this especially if it …
Aloe Vera Vita Health After Body Milk And Sun Lotion
This after sun milk is made by Aloe Vera Vita Health. It is a unique after sun lotion that I bought in Cyprus during a free excursion that I had taken called The Blanket Trip. This cream is by far the best after sun lotion that I ever …
Sheer Cover Mineral Makeup
I was really disappointed in myself after purchasing this powder foundation, because I honestly felt that I was ripped off by a infomercial, which is something that I was never the type of doing! So as I’m flipping through the channels one day I just happen to notice this …
Arista Nail Colour
I love nail polish and when I was younger and in high school I used to buy lots of different brands and colours of nail polishes. Once there was a special function at our school and back then I used to do lots of different designs on my nails …
Braun Series 7- 790cc Pulsonic Shaver
This electric shaver is a pretty good one. With this shaver, I experienced very minimal painful pinching and as a result less red marks underneath my chin. Those would really hurt when I would get them with previous shavers and I usually felt like throwing the shaver against the …
Caudalie Instant Foaming Cleanser
I have been working in the cosmetic industry for approximately five years now so I am always experimenting with the latest products. I am able to easily recognize what works and what does not work and I have to say that I was more than pleased with Cuadalie’s …
Bodycology Vanilla & Butterscotch Body Mist
Certain scents just do not mix, at least they don’t for me. One such example, as I have recently found out, is vanilla and butterscotch. I was happy when I first saw Bodycology Vanilla & Butterscotch body mist on a store shelf; vanilla is one of my favorite scents, …
Maybelline Line Stiletto Liquid Eye Liner
I recently purchased the Maybelline Line Stiletto Liquid Eye Liner. I am not over the moon about it but I do think it is a good quality product. I will probably not repurchase it simply because I think there are better liquid liners out there, but I will continue …
Kleenex Aloe and E tissue
It is the start of rainy season here in my country. This is the time when I usually get coughs and colds. During rainy season, I always buy items such as umbrella, raincoat and medicines to protect myself. Now, there is one item in my list that I could …
Clinique Butter Shine Lipstick
This is one of the best lipstick I’ve tried with Clinique. My fascination of lipstick started when I was still young. While I was observing my mom put on makeup, I was curious about the colored pencil she would use in her lips. When I was old enough to …
Kerastase Nectar Thermique Leave-in Heat Protectant
Blow drying is never complete without this special recipe of mine. I haven’t used this product in months, ever since I promised to cut my heat-styling to a minimum. I’ve also adapted wholly to oil-based products for hair styling. But drying my hair was never the …
Dove Deep Moisture Nourishing Body Wash
I think pretty much everyone likes for there skin to be moisturized after a shower. Most soaps dry me out and leave my skin begging for some kind of moisture. I get tired of having to rub down with lotion after each and every shower. I am always looking …
Maybelline Lash Stiletto Mascara
“The only mascara that does for lashes what stilettos do for legs.”
The product decription promises the brush will grasp each lash and coat from every angle, an elastic formula will stretch lashes for provocative length and a pro-vitamin B-5 formula will condition and smooth lashes for a black-patent shine.
Not …
Maybelline Dream Matte Powder Honey
I really hadn’t used a lot of Maybelline products until the last few years. In my youth, I used to use a pancake makeup because I had pretty bad acne back in my teens and it was the only thing that provided me the kind of coverage I was …
VS Pro Voluptuous FX Mascara
Once again, this mascara is also from the brand new line by Victoria’s Secret called VS Pro. I recently ran out of my DiorShow (well I did not run out of it exactly, it was just getting really clumpy because I have had for more than three months now). …
LOreal Volume Shocking Mascara
I was given this mascara as a gift and I really didn’t think too much of it. I’m not a huge fan of mascaras that have two systems. Meaning the ones that require you to put a primer on your lashes which is a white gunk and …
Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion
I am reviewing Clinique dramatically different moisturizing lotion. The reason why I did not capitalize “dramatically different moisturizing lotion” is because Clinique doesn’t capitalize them either. Anyway, I paid $37.00 for the 4.2 ounce plastic bottle.
The lotion does not have much of a scent to …
Wet ‘n Wild Jumbo Juicy Flavored Lip Balm
The Product
The shade is Cherry which is obviously a red color.
The container is a big, clear round tube which is 7.7 grams in weight.
The scent smells like a sweet cherry, and the taste is surprisingly sweet.
The texture is very smooth on the lips and emollient.
The price is around $2.
My …
Hada Labo Arbutin Whitening Essence
This is another item I love from Hada Labo. It cost me $20 for a 30 gram of whitening essence. Like all other Hada Labo whitening product, this essence also contain Arbutin and Vitamin C. I also love how they do not have fragrant, mineral oil so it doesn’t clog …
Free and Clear Firm Hold Hair Spray
Ever since my favorite hair spray has been discontinued, I have been trying various brands of hair spray to try to find one that I like as well as my regular brand. I prefer pump style sprays verses aerosols, and I like hair sprays that are not too …
Shimmering Lip Gloss from Chic
First and foremost, I had never heard of the company or the cosmetic group Chic, so when I was given Lip gloss made by them, I thought it might be something new and interesting. A new company out to take on the cosmetic market. The bag that the gloss …
