Taiwan’s Famous Hair Bun Sponge Hair Bang Clips (Small)
I found this product on Amazon after trying the Conair Bun Maker without any luck. I still wanted to be able to find some way to attempt to put my hair into a sleek bun without having stray strands sticking out like they would if I used the Goody …
Lo’real Happyderm
I was quite impressed at the packaging. The name “Happyderm” does give the impression as stated. This comes in a cute little pink pump bottle. You can say that it’s very cutesy. I like how the fact that the moisturizer comes in a pump so that bacteria wouldn’t invade …
Women’s Degree Ultra Clear Pure Rain with Triclear
I am the kind of person that basically picks my deodorant by how it smells. I love to try new scents and brands, but lately a lot of brands that I have tried have seriously failed within a few hours of real sweating. So I picked up Women’s Degree …
Vitamin E Moisture Cream from The Body Shop
Recently, I received the Vitamin E Moisture Cream from The Body Shop as part of a bridal shower gift. This is actually my second time using the product - approximately one year ago I purchased this cream when it was on sale. According to the product description on The …
YSL Rouge Volupte Lipstick in #2 Sensual Silk
I think YSL’s lipsticks remain true to tradition, despite a few changes in the past they still keep the classic feel and color intact. Improvisations in cosmetics had improved the crude textures of most lipsticks, making them richer. But I miss the old days of painting a …
Avon ultimate
Having been dumped by stress and work, my mom sought solutions to minimize the appearance of wrinkles. Being desperate to find one, she was captured by the promise of a brochure ad of “Avon Ultimate”. The retail price, reaching almost Php1,500 then, was quite telling us that it probably …
Conair Two-Sided Makeup Mirror
I have a difficult time seeing in the bathroom light and I also like to sit down to do certain things that I need a mirror for. I found a great mirror that has two sides and lights so that I can see better when trying to put makeup …
Estee Lauder Tender Lip Balm (01 Tender Peach)
This is again an Estee Lauder product review. I honestly am not a big fan of Estee Lauder. I really hate the way that they put a scent on all their makeup especially those for the lips. This was another gift to me so I could not say no …
E.L.F. Studio Line blush and bronze compact
Nars has this blush and bronzer compact dual that’s very popular but anyone that’s ever shopped a Nars product knows how pricey they can get. Considering the tough economy times and how so many people are struggling to make ends meet, makeup isn’t too high on many women’s budget …
Naris Up Acmedica Acne Night Care Powder
I got this powder from Watsons store at $13. It has a light blue jar as packaging and it is just a mere 7 gram powder. The texture of the powder is very soft and it is white in color. The powder comes with a very soft powder puff. …
Blue 65 cm Puncture Resistant Exercise Ball With Hand Pump
I actually bought a few fitness balls in the past, including Blue 65 cm Puncture Resistant Exercise Ball which was bought online worth $20. It was made by Blue but because they lasted only for a little while, and so I need to buy another one which would last …
Revlon Photo Ready Foundation
After hearing the constant rave about the Revlon Photo Ready foundation, I gave in and decided to try it for myself. At first I was hesitating whether or not to try this foundation because of its price tag. It’s about $18 CDN which is quite expensive for a drugstore …
Lucky Tiger Face Scrub
There’s nothing I like more than waking up in the morning and splashing water on my face and using a good facial wash to really make my skin look alive. I’ve always had to deal with skin that looks a little dull in the mornings, or any time of …
Suave Naturals Refreshing Waterfall Mist Shampoo
I recently purchased Suave Refreshing Waterfall Mist Shampoo at the grocery store. I was hesitant to buy it because it was priced so much lower at 99 cents than the shampoo I normally use. But since Suave has been around for a long time, and the price …
Maybelline Define-A-Brow Gel
If there is one thing in my face that I don’t like, it’s my eyebrows. This is because I have thick eyebrows. During my growing up years, it was not a big deal. But when I hit the adolescent age, thin eyebrows became a fad. Those with thick eyebrows …
Avon Glazewear Lipstick
My lips just look fabulous with Avon’s Glazewear Lipstick. Unlike my other lipsticks, this product does not only add color and beautify my lips, but also serves as a constant lip moisturizer while I’m working in the office. My friends are asking me about it …
MiCabella Cosmetics
I wouldn’t say I am a big makeup fan, but the makeup that I do own is some of the best. Working in restaurants all day where you are running around, in the heat of the kitchen etc your face tends to melt off. Makeup doesn’t last long, yet …
Boots Traditional Skin Care Cold Cream
This cold cream from Boots has a fairly thick consistency, when I use it with a cotton pad to remove makeup it does not do a very good job, I have to use 3-4 pads just to remove all traces of blusher and concealer. It does remove quite a …
Sally Hansen HD Hi-Definition Nail Color
I don’t usually wear nail polish because I don’t like when it starts to chip away. Not only that, but I get sick of using the same colors over and over again. So when my aunt brought home a Sally Hansen HD Hi-Definition nail color I was impressed. …
Olay Regenerist Superstructure Cream
I have been reluctant to try the Olay Regenerist line of skin care products, mainly because of the price (most of the products are between $25-$35), and because the claims the company makes seem a little unrealistic. This product line is supposed to moisturize as well as firming up …
Garnier’s Belle Colour no 7
I have always had lovely light blond hair but now I’m 33 I find that my hair is getting darker (sob,sob!). So to avoid those nasty dark roots that keep coming to haunt me every few weeks, I have decided to take the plunge and go darker!
I purchased a …
Nivea Super Dry Deodorant for Men
Men always act like men and so, they smell really manly everyday. As a wife, I know the things that a guy would normally do and how rugged they can act. I know how hard it is to wash clothes that were stained by reckless movements and well, you …
Clean & Clear Face Wash
I am talking about Clean and Clear products now. Maybe some of you already knew about this brand. I am using this product especially when I have acne problem in my face.
Clean and Clear Face Wash is like liquid soap. It is easy to use and easy to …
Avon Refine White face powder
Three months ago, I tried using a new face powder from Avon cosmetics called Refine White. I’ve been looking for a face powder that could compliment my oily skin and can hide my facial pores without giving me some headaches about pimples.
When I started using this product from Avon, …
Dirty Works You Soft Touch Hand Lotion
I love this hand lotion as it is very effective, the softness lasts for a few hours and it is pretty economical as you get a big 100ml tube of it for just a few quid. It also comes in cute packaging. The only thing I would …
Summer’s Eve Feminine Powder
Contrary to all those silly television commercials, women do not sit around discussing feminine hygiene products. The fact is, though, that they are a necessary part of life for many women, especially if you want to make sure you are extra fresh and odor-free.
I have been using Summer’s Eve …
Olay Regenerist Regenerating Lotion
I’m actually disappointed in this product, I honestly thought it would’ve gave me better results, in a faster time. I purchased Olay’s Regenerist Advanced Anti-Aging UV Defense Regenerating Lotion at a local drug store for about $20.00 because I read good things about it in a magazine. Because the …
Dior Addict lip glow
During one of my shopping sprees, I happened to set on my eyes on Dior Addict lip glow. Since I love purchasing cosmetics (especially those who appealed to my senses) - this lip glow seemed to grab immediate attention. What really attracted to me to this product was the …
Jergen’s Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer
I have been using Jergen’s Natural Glow daily moisturizer for light skin tones on and off for more than a year. I don’t use it all of the time because it takes 3 or 4 days before you see the color of your skin begin to change. However, when …
NYC Kohl Brow and Eyeliner Pencil
One of the eyeliners I like to use is the NYC Kohl Brow and Eyeliner Pencil in Jet Black. I like this eyeliner because it is affordable and made from natural ingredients like jojoba oil, beeswax, palm oil, minerals, castor oil and vitamins I even like the true …
Fruit Of The Earth Aloe Vera 100% Gel
Though there are wide variety of skin care products available in the market, natural products have their own importance in the cosmetic world. Finding a natural product that would help treat the skin conditions is extremely difficult though not impossible. Aloe Vera is one such natural ingredient that is …
Neutrogena on the spot acne treatment
First off, I use zapzyt acne treatment gel every once in a while for really demanding pimples; it seems to dry them out - REALLY dry them out - much quicker. And I guess this is really the reason I don’t use it on a regular basis. It’s just …
Sainsbury’s Freshmint Toothpaste
Sainsbury’s Freshmint Toothpaste is the brand that I use most often, and I would definitely say that it worked pretty well on the whole. It is (obviously, I suppose) the own brand of the Sainsbury’s supermarket chain, and so will be easier to find in the United Kingdom than …
Eskinol Oxygen Renew Facial Wash/ Mask
Before I became the smart consumer that I am now, I of course had a fair share of mishaps trying out products that were utterly no good. Finding out the quality in products also forms part of the test as I grow to be a mature buyer. …
Boots No. 7 Stay Perfect Lipstick
Boots No. 7 is a little known brand of cosmetics, based in the UK and sold in the US only at Target stores or via Drugstore.com. And it has quickly become my favorite all time cosmetic line.
Lipsticks are hard for me. I have darker skin (Hispanic) and …
Bath and Body Works Mentha Lip Tint 1137
One of my favorite lip glosses is the Mentha Lip Tint Number 1137 from Bath and Body Works. I received it as a Christmas gift from a friend and it quickly became a must-have item in my purse. This stuff rocks!
It has many benefits. First, it goes on …

If you have extremely chapped hands from cooking, gardening, or tooling, then you will love treasure having CO Bigelow’s Chapped Hands Remedy available at all times. It’s hard to find a good emolient for extremely chapped hands because you want something that is prescription-strength but yet readily available …
Tousle Me Softly Mousse
I’ve always loved to twist, curl, and scrunch my long hair into a slightly wavy hairdo that looks both effortless and fun. Usually, I use a strong mousse and braid overnight to wake up with fresh curls. However, when I saw a commercial for the Tousle Me Softly collection …
Bare Minerals Foundation in Golden Tan
I recently went to the mall because I had run out of my Bare Minerals. I usually wear the Medium Beige shade. I usually go into Sephora, pick out my shade and then leave. Never do I ask anyone for help. Because often times they get it wrong. However, …
Rimmel London Professional Eyebrow Pencil
I rarely give my eyebrows much thought, they’re naturally quite neat and tidy and I get them regularly shaped at the salon so I don’t often have to do anything with them. Sometimes however I’ll have the front of my hair up, and then it becomes quite apparent that …
Alberto VO5 Miracle Mist
This product is fantastic for those of you who use a flat iron. I purchased it for my daughter and in no time all of us were using it.
It has a great fragrance, doesn’t leave your hair heavy or greasy and gives great protection. You can even …
Equate Creamy Facial Cleanser
I’m really bad about taking my make-up off before bed, and my husband knows it. He recently bought me a tube of Equate Creamy Facial Cleanser thinking if I had the product handy, I would use it, rather than just waiting until I was in the shower the next …

Victoria Secret Mosaic Blushing Powder in Mosaic Pink
Being fair skinned, finding the right blush-on should come easy for me. But often times, I tend to buy red tinted cheek tints that make me look as if I got slapped. Passers by would stare at my blood rushed cheeks. When my mom got back from the US, …
Axe anti-hangover stimulating mg-o2 shower gel
I took a shower with my dad’s shower gel again. he has so many of them in the shower and I just hate that because we have a shower with slide doors so when you open the door a bunch of products just starts to fall down from a …
