Jane Mineral Blush in Satin
I first was introduced to Jane products at Walgreens when they had rebates for Jane blushes. Since I don’t usually go to Walgreens and that’s the only place where I live that sells Jane products, I never really tried them before that day. I decided to buy a Jane …
Eucerin White Solution Gentle Cleansing Foam
I use a host of cleansers to keep my skin clear of acne. A bulk of these products probably consists of acids, and the general effect of having to use them everyday could be summed up by parched, dry skin. There’s nothing wrong about that if you …
Lisa’s Hair Elixir
Funny that I should use a hair elixir for dry scalp, named after a woman, on my teenage sons, but there you have it. My son has a bit of a problem, much like his father, with a dry scalp. I started by purchasing your basic Head n’ Shoulders …

Axe Dark Temptation Body Spray
Axe Dark Temptation is a body spray produced by Axe. It is one of my favorite body sprays of all time, I just can’t get enough of the scent.

Vaseline Firming & Radiance
I grew up with my mother, grandmother and aunt using Vaseline products on all of us kids. Now, in my adulthood, I have tried a lot of different skincare lotions in my lifetime; whether it be facial creme, hand creme or body lotion, usually something isn’t ‘just right’ enough …
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Nail Polish
Recently when my friend and I were giving ourselves manicures, I picked up a random nail polish bottle that seemed to be an interesting color. This nail polish turned out to be Sally Hansen Insta-Dri and the color was an interesting, dark eggplant, unlike anything that I had seen …
Sephora Pop Beauty Lips, Cheek and Eye Collection
As I’ve mentioned in the past, I adore Sephora, not only because they have some excellent items in their lines but because they also carry numerous other brand names like Chanel, Estee Lauder, Clinique and a few others at rather good prices.
One of things I picked from their store was …
MAC Lipstick in Viva Glam Gaga
If you don’t know what the Viva Glam line at MAC is, it is a line of lipsticks and lipglosses that have different packaging than the traditional MAC lipsticks. There is a line of red on the tube, so you can tell that it is a Viva Glam. All …
The Body Shop Ginger Anti-Dandruff Shampoo

Body Shop Oil Balancing Foundation SPF 15
Body Shop’s makeup line is not really that famous compared to other well-known makeup brands. However there is something in their products that really makes it great. While treating my face with some of their products, I stumbled upon their foundation. Just last month, I was complaining about my …
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 …

This is one of my favourite products to use. Even though I have very oily acne prone skin, I was told by a sales assistant at Shopper’s Drug Mart that I had dehydrated skin after she did a skin analysis on me using a Vichy skin analysis machine that …

Mary Kay make-up
I have tried many different brands of make-up, and have my favorites, like Christian Dior lipsticks & Pias wet compact foundation. After hearing about it for so many years, I finally gave Mary Kay a try, and now almost all of my make-up is Mary Kay! Their …
Revlon Colorstay Eyeliner
I really do not like wearing eyeliners because I have very sensitive eyes and it usually does not stay long at my lash line. I do not have a steady hand and I get nervous when I apply eyeliner on my lash line. My eyes would end up watering …
Clinique Gift With Purchase
I have been a Clinique fan for at least ten years, if not more. For as long as I can remember, they have always offered a gift with a purchase in all of the department stores that carry Clinique. Bloomingdale’s, Macy’s, and Lord and Taylor are just a few …
Mandom Gatsby Styling Wax, Hard & Free

Neutrogena Acne Stress Control Night Cleansing Pads
Neutrogena Acne Stress Control Night Cleansing Pads was worth $25 when I bought a single set from a natural health store. I used it for a single month but I think it is pretty decent for cleansing pads. It was not the best but it was worth buying if …
Maxi-Peel Exfoliant Cream #3 Advanced
I had used Maxi-Peel Exfoliant Cream (variant 3:Advanced) for two months. I’d been using it every night as a part of my cleansing regimen. However, I stopped using it when my mom bought me another cream. Of all the products I have used, only Maxi-Peel Exfoliant Cream made me …
Benefit Fancy Pancy Velvet Eye Shadow

Freeman Feeling Beautiful Facial Enzyme Mask

Fructis Garnier Body and Volume Fortifying Shampoo
Fructis Garnier has probably some of the best advertising of any hair care product I have ever seen. The commercials show models with beautiful, healthy, and strong hair that of course we would all kill to have. In our age of media control, it is easy to fall for …
Avon Advance Techniques Daily Shine: Quick Touch Leave In Conditioner
I am typically rather suspicious of the “leave in” type of conditioners. I have observed that while they do make my hair softer, they also tend to cause my ‘do to look heavy, or even oily. However, since during that particular hair washing the Avon Advance Techniques Daily Shine: …
Cover Girl TruBlend Whipped Foundation
I recently purchased the Cover Girl Trublend Whipped Foundation in the shade “Tawny.” I actually had to order this from Amazon because I could not find it in stores. I am fairly certain that it has been discontinued in stores but there are plenty available to order online if …
Dove Cream Bar
I used to love whitening/clarifying soaps but since these whitening/clarifying soaps that I have used are drying, I’ve opted to shift to dove.
Dove is a nice soap. It’s creamy and smells good. The nice texture of it when I lather it to my skin is a very nice feeling. …
Jergens Shea Butter Skin Enriching Lotion
One of things that I hate most about myself is my perpetually dry skin. No matter how many vitamins I take or what kind o scrubs that I use I just cannot seem to keep my skin healthy and moisturized. I usually use Aveeno but lately I have been …
Clinique Anti-Gravity Firming Eye Lift Cream
I bought the Anti gravity eye cream because I was waking up with bags under my eyes due to allergies. I blot a little of this on every morning before I put on my make up. I have found it takes about an hour to dry on my face. …
Boots No7 Lifting & Firming Night Cream
Now that I am in my mid-thirties, I am really starting to see the effects of aging on my face. Not to mention years of sun-worshipping and tanning, as well as some poor lifestyle choices. It all takes its toll after a while. I am always …
St. Ives Renewing Collagen Elastin Advanced Body Moisturizer

Samy Get Curls Re-Energizing Potion

Shiseido Benefiance Revitalizing Eye Cream
After using Shiseido Benefiance Revitalizing Eye Cream, I can say that I really believe in this product. I bought this product because I got a sample at a department store when I was shopping for other cosmetic products and I fell in love with it.
The reason I liked …

Matrix Biolage Color Care is one of the best shampoo for me. I often dye my hair and what I need is a shampoo that would both nourish my hair and make the color last and keep it shiny. I got all these from Matrix Biolage Color Care Shampoo. …
Suave Advanced Therapy Lotion

Blistex Medicated Berry Balm
My lips have been drying out constantly and it is not because I am dehydrated because I drink like a fish. I think the dry air in my home and medicines I am taking cause my lips to be very chapped. I have tried many lip balms and none …
Burt’s Bees Extra Energizing Citrus and Ginger Root Body Wash
I have been trying different body washes lately and some I have really liked a lot and others I have not liked at all. I love to pamper myself and part of that involves testing out different body washes. One which I tried recently is Burt’s Bees Extra Energizing …
Secret deodorant
Being Italian, I tend to sweat a bit more than your average female. Something that I have been dealing with my entire life. It’s not the worst that could happen but still not the best thing in my life. I was thrilled when I saw that …
Cover Girl Smoothers Concealer
Sometimes when we apply makeup, we need a little more. By that I mean, sometimes our foundation doesn’t cover all the imperfections on our faces. Like it or not, hormones do act up and we can have blemishes that can take away from the beauty of our skin. This …
L’Oreal Gentle eye make-up remover
This product is a mixure of oil and water so and it is very gentle and cleans make up in just a few moves.

Caronia Nail Care Cuticle Remover Solution
I bought this bottle of cuticle removing solution in lieu of an old product. The latter left chemical residue in my thumb that was so hard to get rid of. I literally had to wait for a week for the blobs of what seems to be green …
Avon Naturals Shakes Body Lotion Pomegranate & Mango
I’m probably the last person to take a renewed interest in Avon’s body care range. It has taken this long for me to notice their products, because I was preoccupied by other things more important than chatting with a door-to-door saleswoman. In more recent times, Avon has …
Neutrogena Sunless Tanning Foam
Neutrogena Sunless Tanning Foam, Deep color is a pump container that you press and product comes out like a mouse or foam. Neutrogena Sunless Tanning Foam comes in three different shades: light, medium and deep.

I used to have a problem with pimples in my teens and I am in my twenties now but I still get the occasional pimple. If I do get a pimple I like to put a medicated product on it and then makeup over that. I have …
Nivea A Touch of Sparke Cream Oil Body Wash
Nivea A Touch of Sparkle is one of the products that I was curious to try. From the name itself it got my attention to know if the sparkle will still be there knowing a body wash is rinsed with water when taking a bath or shower. How can …
