BioSilk Silk Therapy for Hair
I was searching for a new leave in hair conditioner and when I found this in the store I was so thrilled. This product actually has silk in them and I was so buying the idea of applying silk on my frizzy hair. My hair is long to my …
Chanel Rouge Hydrabase Creme Lipstick in Enigma
My husband knows how much I love lipsticks so on the way back from a trip to Thailand, he got me this lipstick from Chanel at King Power Duty Free. I am a great big fan of Christian Dior and YSL lipsticks but for some reason, I have never …
Olay Pro-X-Age Repair Lotion with SPF 30
It inevitable that we age, if you don’t notice everyday we get older. For me, it is not the age that bothers me but rather the signs in your skin that would manifest aging. Our skin plays an important role in how we feel about ourselves and what is …
Cover Girl Outlast All-Day Lip Color
I went on a shopping spree with my daughter one time and I came across my favorite cosmetic brand. I used to patronize this brand prior to settling with MAC and Clinique. This however, claims to be even better than its prior release thus impulsing me to purchase and …
Revlon Colorstay Foundation for Combination Skin
This is the best foundation ever! I love it! Revlon really out did themselves on this one. I have acne prone skin, which is also sensitive, and a combination of both dry and oil! So when I discovered this product I was so excited! I don’t use foundation that …
China Glaze Refresh Mint Nail Polish

Mabelline “Baby Lips”
In no other way can I say that “Mebelline’s Baby Lips” is an outrageously excellent product. I’ll be honest, when I saw the commercials showing depicting a woman with visually soft lips, I was skeptical. “Lips can’t look that soft” is what I told myself. Though, after seeing countless …
Beauty Rush Lip Gloss by Victoria’s Secret
Victoria is the Queen of lingerie. It could almost be said that racy lingerie is synonomous with Victoria’s Secret. We’ve all walked past a VS store and slightly blushed at the provocative plastic beauties in the window wearing their unmentionables with sex and no shame. So when I noticed …
Loreal Hip Studio Secrets Shadow Duo Dynamic
I find it very hard to find a highly pigmented shadow in the drugstore. When I heard about Loreals new line of products, known as HIP, I had to try it. I love to do a nice smoky neutral eye. I was able to find a nice duo with …
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 …
Chanel Nail Polish
This time I’ll tak about nail polish that I use but that costs a lot to me, this is the nail polisher brand Chanel.
I started using nail polish at eighteen and at the time we used long nails and vibrant colors, contrary to what happens now, that although the …
Paula Young Wigs
I decided years ago that I prefer to keep my hair shorter, especially living in an area where the summer temperatures can rise well above 112 degrees. I still, however, wanted to be able to wear various hairstyles, which would be somewhat limited with a short hairdo. …
Avon Naturals Key Lime & Passion Flower Volumizing Shampoo
Let me tell you, I picked up this shampoo for three reasons. First, I love most items in the Avon Naturals line, because the fragrances of the products in that line are nothing less than “fantastic”. Secondly, I have always been satisfied with Avon’s other line of …
American Apparel Nail Lacquer in Cotton
I quite like American Apparel’s nail polish range. The colour can be a bit of hit and miss at times, but usually really like their formulas so I try to give all the colours a chance. I bought this particular colour because I didn’t have it in my collection. …
Watson Moisturizing Lotion
I trusted so many lotions with my skin from the very first time I became aware of using lotion. Mostly what my mother use is what I use since we have the same skin. What she trusted is what I do too. Just to try other new lotions available …
L’oreal White Perfect Active Whitening Toner
My Nature of work is really outdoors, and a month or so in my recent work, I’ve noticed that my skin looked slightly darker than usual. Fortunately for me, I happen to chance upon a “Buy 1, take 1″ of L’oreal White Perfect Toner. Knowing the brand as a …
Avon Senses Roll On Deodorant Tropics

Bumble and Bumble grooming cream
Bumble and Bumble has many hair care products. I like to use their grooming creme. It is like a lotion for your hair with a little bit of hold. It leaves your hair soft but has enough hold to make your hair look good.
I got a long layer razor …
Paula Dorf Transformer
Eye makeup consists of two different types: eyeliner (of both pen and liquid) and eye shadow (of powder and liquid varieties). I always thought the two types were separate entities with the Great Wall of China between them and never shall the two ever meet. However, to …
Beauty Secrets Hardener High Gloss Top Coat
I would call myself a nail polish enthusiast and to any nail polish enthusiast a good top coat is a must. It is to protect our nail polish from chipping and if we do nail designs, it helps to seal the design. A good top coat would also deliver …
Bobbi Brown Lip Brush
I didn’t actually purchase this brush separately. It came with Bobbi Brown’s holiday lip palette this year. But I am assuming that this is the same style lip brush as the one that you can purchase separately. The brush that came with the lip palette is probably just a …
Nichido Extra Waterproof, Protective Eye Pencil in Brown
One of the random purchases I spent recently on a brow product for less, the Nichido waterproof protective eye pencil. With its unassuming price, this is pretty well-made for its quality. The pencil is very smooth and creamy. I would pay royalties for a brow pencil …
Bottega Verde Green Tea souffle moisturising body cream

Clinique exfoliating scrub / tonique gommage
I got started using Clinique make-up products ever since knowing how to put cosmetics on my skin. I further went to the other side of their beauty arsenals, thinking this time for a more intensive cleanser. That’s why I tossed out my regular facial soap to find …
Almay Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover Pads
I was so psyched when I found the Almay Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover Pads at Meijer. Before I would remove my eye makeup with a damp wash cloth. This method would often irritate my eyes because I would have to apply soap sometimes and it would sting my …
MicroFibre Hair Wrap as seen on tv
I often want to try the different products shown on television that you have to call in and order with your credit card, and this MicroFibre Hair Wrap was no exception. I was a little sceptical about it working and the price for what is essentially a special hair …
Kneipp Jojoba Nut Massage Oil
The good thing about this massage oil comes from the properties of jojoba oil which is very stable and doesn’t become rancid after long periods of storage. However it doesn’t have the time to do so because I use it very fast.
I like to put some drops on …
Clinique Gentle Waterproof Mascara
Mascaras are supposed to darken or lighten the eyelashes depending exactly on what the user needs. In fact mascara has other purpose like to colour, thicken, lengthen or define one’s eyelashes. Knowing how to use mascara I went out to get myself one in a local boutique that offers …
Crabtree & Evelyn Pomegranate Rouge Body Cream
I bought this a couple of years ago during the holiday season. Back then, Crabtree & Evelyn called this scent Pomegranate Rouge. Now they carry a scented body cream that is simply called Pomegranate. So I don’t know whether it is basically the same holiday scent, and they just …

Dr. Miracles Hair Relaxer Kit
I h ave seen numerous of times the commercial for the Dr. Miracles Hair Relaxer Kit. The commercial was really funny to me and just thought the people in the commercial over did the acting and over exaggerated the product so I never paid to much to it. My …
Revlon Colorstay Mineral Foundation
This is the perfect tiny compact foundation powder that I have found on the market, and I love it. It is so convenient to take with me everywhere, and I don’t have to worry about it leaking out in my bag. I love Revlon, but now I love it …
Dior 5-Colour Designer Eyeshadow

Revlon Molten Metal Eyeshadow in Sapphire and Diamond
I caught wind of the new Revlon molten metal eyeshadows from my usual dose of flipping through last month’s magazines (vanity fair, namely). My eyeshadow palettes are so limited; I know that. Yet I’m blinded by buying more and more neutrals and, for some reason, my favorite …

L’Oreal Colorist Secrets, Haircolor Remover: Hair Bleach
This product is misleading and useless unless you were already born with light colors of hair. L’Oreal Colorist Secrets, Haircolor Remover. It is made to take out dye that is in hair as well as used to bleach hair. Now it works fine as a bleach. It does dye …
MAC Oil Control Lotion
Skin becomes oily because of overproduction of sebum. At one point I experienced this. It is really annoying because I need a moisturizer everyday to constantly hydrate myself and an SPF for sun protection. There were only few moisturizers which are in gel form. This is the only close …
Papaya Kojic Whitening Soap by Diana Stalder

At first I was a little doubtful …
Kinerase Extreme Lift Face
This is an antiaging product which claims similar results to injectable face lift procedures. Quite enticing when you first get hold of it. I thought that this is a good bargain to begin given that this is way cheaper than getting a non-invasive facelift. I happen to have some …
Dr Hauschka Cleansing Clay Face Mask
The Dr Hauschka brand is a premium range of skincare products, at $45 for a 90g tub of face mask this is a pricey option but this Cleansing Clay Mask is worth every cent.
