Physician’s Formula Mineral Wear Talc-Free Loose Powder
I recently purchased the Physician’s Formula Mineral Wear Talc-Free Loose Powder. I have recently started trying not to wear liquid foundation but to wear powder foundation instead. This is something I like doing in the summertime when it’s hotter and I don’t want my makeup to just melt off …
Smashbox Face & Body Brush #19
It’s interesting that Smashbox assigns numbers to their make-up brushes. I don’t think I have ever seen that with any other make-up company. I got this brush when it was being sold as part of a set that included the Fusion Soft Lights, I believe it was. The Fusion …
Maybelline Define-A-Lash Lengthening & Defining Mascara
Maybelline have produced different variations on their —˜Define-a-Lash’ range of mascaras, but I have the lengthening one (I think you can get a voluminising one in the range too). I do not tend to wear voluminising mascaras in the day time but I need one with good definition …
Bump Patrol
Bump Patrol is usually thought of as a men’s product, so I thought I’d review it from a woman’s point of view. This product claims that it “heals and prevents razor bumps”, and it sure does!
I have very sensitive skin, and as any woman with sensitive skin knows, razor …
Revlon Colorstay Mineral Foundation
I purchased Revlon’s new ColorStay Mineral Foundation for a fairly decent price at a grocery store. I wanted to try out the new “mineral” craze before investing in Bare Minerals, which is quite pricey for my tastes. I figured it would be like most powder foundations and …

My Experience and Opinion
This was an impulse buy. I have no idea about this particular brand, but …
Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette
I recently purchased the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette. I bought this the day that it was released from Urban Decay. I felt incredibly lucky to get my hands on this because it is very high in demand in the beauty world. It is the sequel to the Naked …
Vaseline Naturals 2 in 1 Shampoo and Conditioner with Aloe
I really like shampoo that will take care of my hair and scalp and with a great scent. I really am not a fan of the Vaseline line of shampoo. I mean Vaseline?? I know that they are great and all that with lotions but shampoo? So anyway I …
Covergirl Smoothers Eyeliner in Midnight Rose
I have brown eyes and not the kind that are really pretty and piercing or anything. Just plain, boring brown eyes so dark they’re almost black, to my constant annoyance. I heard that purple eyeliner makes brown eyes pop so I wanted to give it a try. My mom …
Veet In-Shower Hair Removal Cream
I do not know why but I kind of have a lot of hair in my hair, legs, and other areas. I am a girl so it is quite ugly to look at. When I was younger, I even thought that I would grow up to be an ape …
Avon Cellu-Sculpt
When I was younger, I paid no attention to cellulite because it was not really a problem for me at all, that is until I got pregnant and gained weight. I tired everything from exercising to putting on every lotion and cream imaginable, until I discovered Avon Cellu-sculpt cream.
I …
Bio Ionic I-Smooth Flat Iron
I recently needed to get a new flat iron. I lost my old one while traveling and since I straighten my hair daily, I immediately ordered a new one. I got the Bio Ionic I-Smooth Flat Iron online from Amazon. I have seen it for as much as $200 …
La Roche Posay Lipikar Lait (Body Milk)

I have a huge collection of Benefit brand of make-up, and one of their products that I recently bought was the Posietint lip and cheek stain. This is a lighter version of the Benetint lip and cheek stain. I have pale skin, and I found the Benetint to contrast …
Lipice
I hate lipstick because it’s too heavy for me. But I love the color it can bring to my lips. I don’t like lipgloss too because it sometimes looks to glossy for me. I have been struggling before to find that perfect cosmetic for my lips that is cheap, …
Dex Coconut Milk Bath Soap
I don’t remember ever hearing about the “Dex Coconut Milk Bath Soap” until a few weeks ago when some was bought. It was because of this an d the fact that I’d never heard of a coconut milk soap, why I became a bit skeptical that it would improve …

The Body Shop Blush Brush
I have very carefully collected my make-up brushes though the years now. I patiently research the best kind in the market, and I always watch out for sales. Unlike most of other things, I can say that my make-up brushes were not a result of impulse buying. An example …
Stila Adventurous in Aspen Travel Palette
I had looked at this set earlier in the season at Sephora but I decided it was too expensive for the period I would use it for. It was priced at $65 in December. I love makeup sets, but I did not need another one and the …
Avon Advanced Techniques Mirror Shine Spray
I do like good quality products for my hair and skin and if that means spending a lot of money on a product that is fine - as long as it works of course. However recently I have come across a fantastic item for my hair and it’s not …
MAC Chatterbox Lipstick
I love this lipstick! As soon as I saw it in the MAC store, I just knew that I had to purchase it! Now I have a long and wide range of pink lipsticks and lip glosses already, but I like to think that there’s no such thing as …
Garnier - Whitening Moisturizing Cream with SPF 15 for Day
I have an oily face skin. Since I have to work outside the office, I exposed to sunlight most of the time. The result, my face skin gets darker. Obviously sun burn does have its effect on my skin.
I’ve tried many products to reduce the pigmentation, brown spots and …
Urban Decay Glide-On Eye Pencil in Yeyo
I’ve used many eye liners in the past. Today I am reviewing my most favorite eyeliner that I use almost everyday, that is the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-One Eye Pencil in Yeyo.
White eyeliner is great for brightening the eyes. I use it in my waterline and this is great …
Modern Organic Products hair pomade
Modern Organic Products hair pomade is a dense sticky paste that comes in a small pot. It does add texture and it also adds shine, but it is not best for long hair, I have discovered. Since I have long hair it simply weighs it down.
I think …

Vitress Hair Polish - Sun Protect
Before, I used to have this unmanageable long wavy hair. I tried using some products to keep my hair in place but all were in vain. I tried using some hair spray which only added more damage on my hair. Then, I saw this add about a certain product …
Vanilla Crocket Rejuvenating Body Lotion
I’ve always said that I just love vanilla fragrances and lotion since I find something very soothing smooth and beautiful about them so when a family member gave me a bottle of Vanilla Crocket Rejuvenating Body Lotion recently I was more than a little happy to have it. Nevertheless, …
Maybelline expertwear Eye Shadow Trio, Crown Jewels
Product: Maybelline expertwear Eye Shadow Trio
Color: Crown Jewels
The Crown Jewels eyeshadow trio is pale, neutral, and dull. I bought this set online, and the color was grossly misrepresented. It claimed to be a set of greyish taupe, dusty rose, and a pale rosy beige. This is absolutely incorrect! …
Bobbie Cuticle Remover Solution
I’m a bad manicurist if it pertains keeping my nails buffed out. I oftentimes leave it to the nail salon if I really need to have an extensive mani-pedi. I constantly sanitize my hands as a precaution, rather more of a compulsion which causes dryness and discoloration …
Kojisan Whitening Soap

Everyday Minerals Base Makeup

Oxy Maximum Daily Cleansing Pads

BFTE Mineral Veil
A mineral veil seems to be one of the products that seems to have no apparent sue until you actually start using it the right way. I had read about the miss America pageants and how they kept their makeup from melting off during the shows was that they …
Studio Basics Dual Tip Paddle and Point Cosmetic Applicator
Q-tip is, arguably, the secret to achieving near-perfect makeup. It’s the unsung tool that every makeup buff uses. Apart from the generic use of cleaning one’s ears, I turn to the Studio Basics dual tip paddle/point applicator, a special q-tip made for applying cosmetics.
The Studio Basics dual …
Aveeno Active Naturals Daily Moisturizing Lotion

Cetaphil Skin Cleanser

Original Source Orange and Almond Foaming Creme Bath
I have always liked this Original Source brand of body washes and bath foams since they first came out, back in the 80s I think. They all contain essential oil which is always preferable to artificial scents and all their products have a bit of zing to them. …
