At home, we do keep an emergency kit that includes Povidone Iodine, Band Aid Straps, Cotton Balls, Agua Oxinada and Alcohol. At my bag, the only kit I can have is alcohol, so that whenever I have cuts or bruises I can clean it with alcohol.
There are so …

Being in the customer service industry is really taking it s toll on me. Not only do I have to deal with contentious clients, I also have to work late at night since our work shift was changed. This resulted in poor sleeping patterns, which in turn resulted to …

I have been working in the cosmetic industry for approximately five years now so I have experimented with all of the foundations on the market. As a direct result of all of my training and all of my experience, I know what works and I also know what doesn’t …

I have incredibly sensitive skin that is prone to breakouts and blemishes, so removing eye makeup with a product that is not too oily has always been a problem. Loreal Lip and Eye Makeup Remover is gentle enough to not irritate my skin, and not completely oil-based, and thus …

This product will do wonders to the face. I bought this product because it was fairly cheap compared to the other acne treatments and most of the people told me this works right away. My face was covered with pimples due to stress and I needed it cleared or …

A few months ago I went through a pink lipstick obsession. I fell in love with this Yves Saint Laurent lipstick in the most gorgeous shade of pink, but didn’t want to spend close to $30 on a tube of lipstick, so I went looking around at every drugstore, …

I have very active kids and oftentimes they get smelly. Although they take a bath twice a day (in the morning and at night), when they start to play and sweat, their smell is just too strong to bear.
Johnson’s Baby Cologne …

I’ve tried many acne treatments to try and get rid of my acne or at least improve it considerably, many of which though failed. They either didn’t work for me at all, irritated my skin to no end and i couldn’t just use it anymore, and/or worked for a …

One of the worst facial mask I have used to exfoliate and brighten up my skin was Freeman Avocado & Oatmeal Purifying Facial Clay Mask. It burned and irritated my skin and left if really dried out. I wouldn’t recommend you use this natural facial mask if you have …

I have been using St. Ives apricot scrub for many years now. I dont remember why I bought it in the first place, but I have continued to use it ever since. St. Ives Apricot Scrub is supposed to be used for blemish and blackhead control, but …

As a recipient of freebies and product samples from the office (I’ve amassed aplenty), something very rare that I owned was a cute fold-over box of blushing paper. It must have been ages ago, and I still have it to this day. The Lancome blush papier nacre …

I bought today Vaseline 2In1 Healthy Skin Soap at the small store near my house. The usual soap that we use at home was already consumed. Unfortunately, it was not also available in the store. So, I just bought what was available. Anyway, this Vaseline Soap comes in a …

I’m kind of torn on whether I would recommend this blush or not. I purchased L’Oreal Blush on Touch On shade on a rush coz I ran out of blush-on, and it was on sale on Target for $2 from its regular $10 per tiny pot.
There are things I …

As shower gel goes, Neutrogena’s Rainbath is a little on the pricey side but the 32-fluid-ounce bottle of golden brown gel is worth every cent. Sceptics will ask what Rainbath can do which other cheap soap can’t. The answer: Neutrogena Rainbath is so gentle on the skin that you …

Benzoyl Peroxide became a bitter part of my pimple-stricken days in seeking for a potent solution against acne. I can vividly remember it was one of the things I used to desperately treat my pimples some time last year. I scoured the internet which led me to …

I was out in a mall one time while electing a suitable shampoo I could use and happened to pass by a familiar faint smell of what seems to be paint thinner. I realized I was standing near the shelves of nail lacquers, mostly run-of-the-mill brands and picked …

So after using Olay Regenerist Night Recovery Moisturizing Treatment for a week with satisfied results, I got on my desktop and went on Olay’s site to search for the whole Regenerist line. I wanted to add a few other things to my regimen. I needed a daily …

Bodycology White Gardenia Foaming Bath & Shower Gel is a bottle of pure bliss! I love the gentle flowery scent of gardenia, and the plentiful bubbles this product creates when used in a bath tub. The bubbles gradually subside and eventually disappear, so when you’re done, you will not …

Biore Deep Cleansing Pore Strips is a pack of nose strips which you are supposed to apply on your nose so you can get rid of the blackheads and whiteheads. I know other products like this exist at drugstores and local pharmacies, and I admit I tried a few …

This is the newest Foundation launched in Avon and i’ve just ordered 1 of these without even trying it. Why did I do this? Because of a special offer of course.
This comes in a 30ml tube and the right price of this is £10.50, but Avon has just done …

I own a trio of Bon Bons Sparkle Shadow Dust #336, in violet, pink, and white. This pretty product comes in an acryllic container. The top has a separate lid, but the two additional colors are not as the bottom of the previous color is the cover for the …

I decided to try this because I was curious about all comments I heard about it. I used it and found out that it is really not impressive, just a bad mineral powder nothing more! The packaging is too crappy for me. Each time I opened it, there was …

I have very, very dry skin (particularly on my legs) and I have tried a variety of skin lotions to combat this problem. When I say very dry skin, I mean the skin on my legs turns white if anyone should scratch it. Gross and annoying. But, I have …

When I was a teenager, and all the hormones were raging and I was breaking out with acne on a continual basis, one of the only products that really covered the imperfections was the Max Factor pancake makeup. Of course, their color options at the time weren’t always the …

I bought this Maybelline Line Stylist Eye liner because I love Maybelline cosmetics and I really liked the commericals and the magazine ads for this eye liner and wanted to give it a try, it didn’t cost that much either so that was definitely a plus for deciding on …

I saw a bottle of Queen Helene at Landmark cosmetic stall. I was intrigued because the bottle is big and the price is only $ 3. This made me think that this product of 4.8 oz has less quality since there is lots of stuff in the bottle and …

For the past month, I have been using the Juice Organics Brightening Facial Kit. It comes with a brightening face wash and moisturizer. Both skin care products I am absolutely in love with. They cleanse and nourish my skin very well without leaving it feeling irritated and dried out. …

I have aged considerably over the years to learn a lot about spot treatments for acne. I’d be revisiting that later on in my life, which is happening now, and I’m disappointed that clearing spot treatments haven’t changed their formulations much. They are of the same stuff …

This one was one of the cheapest ceramic hair straightener out there with a known brand so this was pretty much the reason why I bought it. I do not spend a lot of time doing my hair so the expensive ones were not an option. It is a …

For the longest time I have been on the hunt for the perfect foundation. With very fair skin, most foundations are too dark for my skin. Many don’t look natural, are too expensive, or aren’t the right color. A few years ago I discovered Jane Be …

I got the 67 Just Shout! named color which basically is a pastel pinky orange colour - a really great colour in my opinion, works well with anything since it is quite subtle.
This nail polish dries up really quick, nails are touch safe in about a minute and that …

On a recent shopping spree in the beauty section of my department store, this product caught my eye. It wasn’t for the cute packaging becase Suave Basic Volumizing Shampoo’s product design is as basic as one can get. Rather, it was for its claim to add volume to my …

I love the type of mascara that makes my eyelashes look full, and natural. I am not one of those that cares for the mascaras that looks like you put it on real thin, and obvious.
When I shop, I read all of the labels, and look closely at the …

To be honest, what first got me attracted this shampoo was the packaging. It comes in a fat, transparent bottle with drawings of green olives all over it, you can see them whichever side you look. It even seems to have this 3D effect, as if those …

Now that the holiday season is fast approaching, I am very much reminded of my Christian Dior lipstick. This lipstick tube is of a blue and gold color which is attractive and elegant enough. You can’t mistake it for anything else than a CD product because the name is …

I’ve been buying this Foot Spray for a few years now. I have used a few Pump Action spray bottles but this is the only actual spray one. This is the coldest spray I have used which can be a bit of a shock if you spray this onto …
