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 …
Dry Scalp shampoo
Head and Shoulders Dry Scalp shampoo will help those who do not necessarily have dandruff (maybe some) but suffer from dry, itchy scalp.

Neutrogena’s MoistureShine lip gloss

Veet Spray On Hair Removal Cream Depilatory

Avon Naturals Lime Whitening Peeling Cleanser
My acne was a late bloomer. I am in my late 20’s now, but back when I was a teenager, I pretty much had zit-free skin. Yes, I had the normal big pores, oily skin combo, but my skin was pretty smooth-ish then. Until I took the plunge when …

L’oreal Paris Elseve Smooth-Intense Anti-Frizz Serum 100 ml

Fekkai Hair Shampoo

Mac Embark Matte Eyeshadow
This eyeshadow is quite expensive for my tastes, it costs around $14.50 or P610 and for one colour, it can be expensive but it has a really nice shade and it is highly-pigmented, so it stays on for hours and you won’t have to apply this and actually save …
CoverGirl Outlast Lipstain

Urban Decay Eyeliner
Urban decay eyeliner is by far the best quality eyeliner on the cosmetic market today. Personally, my favorite color is Zero, which is the dark black color, but that is because it goes best with my skin and eye color. There are so many colors and they …
Oil of Olay Regenerist Daily Regenerating Serum
I am 30 years old and my biggest problem with skin is dynamic wrinkles. Although not very visible at the moment, it is obvious that they will develop into deeper folds due to the way my skin tends to fold when I smile or laugh. I would like to …
L’Oreal InFallible Never Fail Plumping Lip Gloss

Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm 0.15 oz/4.25 g
I have to admit, Burt’s Bees Beeswax lip balm has great packaging. Yellow definitely stands out on the shelf, just like taxi on the road. It’s also very tempting to buy, and I have bought it on two occasions.
This Burt’s Bees concoction has an interesting premise: …
Simple Moisturise Body Wash
I wanted to try this product as I’m allergic to scented soaps, and Simple products contain no perfume and no color, are dermatologically tested and are for sensitive skin. I have used Simple products in the past and have been happy with them, but I chose this particular …
