As I have stated many times in my reviews, though I do adore expensive luxury beauty products I also love a good bargain and feel that products from Avon offer both of these qualities.
As I recently tried their Almond Oil and Avocado Shampoo from the Naturals range and was …

My mother used to do her hair coloring in the salon. Due to the recession, we asked her to cut back on unnecessary expenses, and this included hair coloring service at the salon.
I went to the supermarket to get the hair coloring product so that she could do …

I am not a big fan of hand creams generally, because I hate the greasy and sticky feeling they leave on my hands, and I wash my hands so often during the day, that applying hand cream seems pointless and a waste of money, time and effort. This winter, …

I use hair remover to take away unwanted hair in the underarms, legs and other parts of the body. This stuff is normally done by women. I would opt hair remover from shaving because of the adverse effect on the skin brought by shaving. I was very frequent in …

As I have gotten older, and spend more time with my hands in water, the health of my nails has taken a nosedive. I never had particularly strong nails. Although they will grow long easily, they also split and break even more easily. For the past few …

I am very health conscious so even in my choice of conditioners for my hair, I always demand my conditioners to be silicone free. Yes I actually spend time reading the ingredients on every bottle I come across in the drugstore. And when I find something with ingredients that …

I’m really picky when it comes to facial moisturizers. I used to only use Clinique, but then I wanted something more natural and began trying moisturizers from the health food store. I love the scent of this moisturizer. It isn’t too strong, and smells fresh and clean. The moisturizer …

I take my hair very seriously. I have had hair loss problems before and now I take care of it better, and only use quality hair products. I used to have a dandruff problem, meaning it literally used to snow out of my head, if you know what I’m …

Nivea Visage Alcohol-Free Moisturizing Toner comes in a pink plastic bottle with a dark-blue cap. The toner itself is a lotion-like substance, not too creamy and with a nice fresh scent. However, it is *not* a lotion, so the moisturizing effect is very mild. Basically, what it does it …

I was on a mission recently at my local pharmacy, to find a cover-up that would not only cover up blemishes and dark circles, but that would be healthy for my skin and not leave it dry or flakey. I had already tried so many other types of cover-ups, …

I live in a part of the country where it is brutally hot during the summer. Temperatures can soar as high as 112 or more at times, so having the right deodorant is extremely important to me. I tend to sweat quite a bit when I have …

I usually have problems with eyeliner because it’s too dry and does not go on to my eyes very well. I like the look of eyeliner because it makes your eyes look very dramatic and helps to make them pop out. Unfortunately all of the eyeliners I have bought …

One of the conditioners I use daily is the Organix Hydrating Tea Tree Mint Conditioner. I like it because it is made from natural organic ingredients and has this pleasant clean tea tree mint scent to it that I find refreshing. I even like how well this conditioner hydrates …

I wanted to try this product because it is one of the few moisturizers that offers SPF protection higher than 15. They say that SPF 15 is enough protection but there’s a sense of security of having a little extra coverage. I find that I’m satisfied …

I’m always looking for new ways to control my hair. I don’t like hair gel very much, and tend to use it sparingly. My hair is not thin, but sometimes it’s limp, and of course it’s always frizzy. Whenever I style it, I’m worried about blow-drying it too much …

One of the harshest memories I have from my childhood is having worn a foundation that was always five shades off for my very pale skin tone. My mother never really taught me how to apply makeup and which makeup is best for my complexion and tone, and so …

I was really disappointed in my purchase of this product, because it didn’t do anything for me! I was in K-Mart with my mother one day, and while she was purchasing something, I decided to take a look at the skin care section to check out what they had. …

I haven’t purchased Mascara in a while while, especially from Maybelline. But since I’m back to using more eye makeup, I’ve decided to try out new mascaras, since I’m used to the old ones already. New time for new things right? So I went online, I did a little …

I have owned the Shiseido Nourishing Mascara Base and I can’t believe that I am just now getting around to reviewing it. Honestly, this is such a staple product in my makeup collection and I highly recommend it to anyone who has either very sparse lashes or who has …

Okay this review is for the ladies. We all get to that time of the month. It sucks but alas its something that we must deal with. It can also be expensive buying all the sanitary products. This is especially true if your flow starts and stops at odd …

I have plenty of craze for cosmetics. I never stop using lip stick for any occasion. It may be for a party, wedding or when guests arrive at home, I regularly apply lipstick apart from giving good make-up to myself. Because of my interest in cosmetics, I always …

Someone gave me this one Christmas along with some other stuff. I tried some of it and surprisingly liked it a lot better than I thought I would. I thought that it would be way too much glitter and that the glitter would get everywhere. It’s a lot more …

This is one of the best and my most trusted pimple control products ever. I have been using it since the last two odd years and I never wanted to change it. Before trying this one I tried various products from Lakme, Jhonson etc but to no use. They …

Even though I would not change my hair from the way that it currently is (medium length, not chemically processed African American hair), sometimes I wish that I could find a solution to eliminate how frizzy it sometimes becomes. I usually shy away from using products like this …

I have been so amazed with H20’s formula as regards its body scrubs. The only brand that I have tried for so many times is Body Shop. There is a different approach with H20 regarding its ingredients.
The use of a body scrub is important although many disregard this cosmetic …

A friend recently referred Aveeno Positive Smooth Lotion. This product really works good especiallt winter season. It’s more than a moisturing lotion which you can apply in any part of your body. This applies especially for those sensitive, fine pores skin. It goes beyond moisturizing your skin, it completely …

Sani is a herbal hair oil which is very costly. I had heard that this herbal hair oil is very effective to stop hair fall and also to stop the whitening of the hair in early ages. I tried it because I had the problem of hair …

Urban Decay cosmetics are different because the line was created just to show off what makeup could be like, rather than falling into the same old patterns of what the cosmetics already look like on the shelves in the store. While I enjoy trying their new products, I …

Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray is an amazing product if you have curly, unruly hair. I have long heavy hair with a lot of curls. I have been using a large variety of products over the years with varying levels of success. The Bumble …

Liquid Neutrogena Facial Cleanser is one of my favorite mild facial cleansers. I have been a user of this product even before I tried the liquid soap of Clinique. This was the facial cleanser recommended when I had my first visit with a dermatologist way back then. This product …

The fast approaching wedding day of my cousin caused me to look for a new brand of mascara. I often go with Revlon or MAC but this time I tried Physicians Formula. This is a less known brand for me and often do not grace the pages of Cosmopolitan or …

I am always looking for easier and quicker ways to get rid of body hair that I don’t want. Pain free is the best way comfort wise, but it doesn’t always give me the results that I need, and it definitely isn’t always the quickest or cleanest way …

Pimples and zits have always been a problem for me as a teenager, and throughout the years I have tried to find products that would get rid of my pimples without the intervention of any prescriptions or products that may hurt or irritate my skin. Recently I came across …

I have just reviewed the Conditioner from this range, so now on to the matching product which is the Shampoo. Wherever possible I like to use matching haircare products. I know the makers recommend that you do, and no doubt it is for their profits and all that, but …

A translucide powder is the magic key for guaranteeing that my makeup will stay in place the whole day.I tested so many types of textures and brands,but in the end I found the perfect one for me: Sleek Makeup professional finishing powder.I have always preferred loose powders to compact one …

I bought Everlast Slimmer Belt online. It was worth $12 and weighed around 5.6 oz. I own a lot of waist trimmers before. It happened to be one of them. I think it is not anything too special since it also shared some similarities with many other waist trimmers which …

I am a huge fan of the classic smoky eye. I think it personifies old fashioned vintage Hollywood glam. So I’m always on the lookout for new products that claim to offer the “best” of the smoky eye. I was browsing Sephora when the Smokin’ Eyes from Benefit caught …

I love to experiment with makeup. One of my favorite things to wear is eyeshadow since I never have to worry about finding the right shade to match my skin color. I purchased this makeup palette spontaneously a few weeks before Christmas. At the time, I …

I have dry skin. I have tried different moisturizers but I am not happy with the result because my face looks oily. Luckily, a Mary Kay representative (friend) introduced me to their products. I was hesitant at first because I don’t want to spend much for an ineffective product. …

Gillette Fusion Razors are an excellent product line. I’m not usually one to specifically look for a name brand product, but this item is truly worth the extra expense. The Fusion appears to have a 5 blade shaving system, although you’d have to check their website to get …

I love nail polishes and I have a collection of them. Anyone who loves nail polishes will know how important it is to have a good base and top coat.
I am aware that the most popular top-coat is the one from the brand Seche Vite top coat …

There are so many types of toners in the market these days that it is hard to choose one that will fit my very sensitive oily skin. There are those almost lotion like toners, the non-alcohol ones, and the astringent ones. Since the astringent toner contains …

I adore matte stains on lips. Regardless how unstable a matte lipstick is, I’m seduced by its rustic, dusty appeal. Another elf lip product that got me spending the second time (price was forgivable) was the Studio Matte lip color. Outside, the weather’s getting warmer, so …

A few weeks ago, I started breaking out with small zits on my face. I panicked, as girly girls tend to do, and immediately looked for a topical solution in the mall. I found myself in Healthy Options. The salesperson recommended Alba Botanica’s Acnedote line, which …

When it comes to mascara my favorite brand to use is Rimmel London because their products always fall into the perfect price point for me. Rimmel London has a variety of mascaras on the market, and currently my favorite is the lycra lash extender.
While I was creating my checklist …

The first time I tried this product, I bought the travel size. It’s a nice mini stick that lasts me about a week, and I was glad I found it. I needed to try a different deodorant that would work for me during the hot summers.
The product says it …

My adult acne is acting up again. I’ve seen a spot, and here comes another. I probably sustained 3 pimples in a week. I’m really devastated by my skin. I have always looked up to my derma-prescribed toner as my ultimate beauty potion. But …
