Calligraphy Liquid Eyeliner
I recently purchased the Hourglass Calligraphy Liquid Eyeliner from Sephora. It was described as a “breakthrough product” and that always gets my attention. I am a sucker for hyped up makeup products which probably explains why I am always buying things from Sephora just because the saleslady recommends something …
Hydroderm
I am aging I will admit like everyone around me. I gained the weight no doubt to my nagging Husband and wonderful well behaved children! I can kind of deal with the weight but man the wrinkles that have appeared almost over night have really brought me to a …

Aveeno products are always good for sensitive skin. I use this moisturizer right before I go to bed so I can wake up with smoother skin the next day. I also use this at night only because it can be a little too sticky to wear during a hot …

Professional Touch Wet Look Hair Styling Gel
Professional Touch is an economical brand of hair styling products, OK, but I will not be buying this ‘wet look’ gel again as the effect does not last for five minutes in a slight wind. It is a clear blue gel in cheap looking packaging which is just …
St Uves Moisturing Firming Lotion

Yves Rocher Self tanners Bronze Nature
I really enjoy this tanner. Habitually, I cannot support the strong smell of selftanners, but this one is the first that have not given me a headhache. So, I’ve been surprised when I used it for the first time and then realized that I could put it on and …

Revlon ColorStay Mineral Lipglaze

Curel Foot Cream

Wet ‘n’ Wild 666 lip liner
I use this lip liner since 3 or 4 years. I love it so much! It is inexpensive, for only $0.99 this can’t be beaten! The only thing, this formula isn’t very creamy so when I lose the lid, it gives me the impression it dries out a teeny …
The Body Shop Tea Tree Blemish Gel

Clinique Line Smoothing Concealer

Bonnebell Glimmer Bronzer
This bronzer didn’t really do what I expected it to do. I thought it would produce a dewy kind of sparkly effect. Not wuite like glitter, but more glittery than powdery. What I ended up with when I used it–was an irridescent kind of glow, as …
