Gillette Satin Care
For years I have had dry skin. Usually, this isn’t a problem as I can find most of the products I need that deal with dry skin. Although when I first began to shave I don’t remember there being such a great abundance of things for every sort of …
Urban Decay Lip Gunk Lip Gloss
I am a major fan of Urban Decay products. Even though most people might find the company’s products to be a bit expensive, I find that the quality of them are impressive and I absolutely love the catchy and clever names that the products have. I purchased …
Purederm Skin Recovery Pearl Essence Mask
I bought this product at Watsons Store because I wanted to use a facial mask which I don’t want to spread anything sticky or gooey. A mask that I can put straight to my face and this one has 100% pulp and natural so I bought it.
I like …
Emami Gold, Turmeric Saffron Soap with 24K Gold
I was so impressed with the Emami Gold Turmeric Skin Cream with 24K Gold (you can read my review on that if interested) that I wanted to also try the soap in that collection.
The Emami gold Turmeric Saffron is an herbal soap with extracts of Turmeric, Saffron and Oxide …
Olay Natural White Bar
I started using Olay White Bar for a half a month now and so far the result is quite surprising. Any other whitening bar soap in the market is not as effective as Olay White Bar. Most whitening bar soaps can make your skin dry and you will need …
Neutrogena Wave Power Cleanser
I grabbed this cleansing system on the way out of Target and didn’t really give it much thought. I placed it in a drawer somewhere in the house and left it there for weeks. It was when I was so bored and had nothing to do that I remembered …
Loreal True Match Foundation
I start wearing makeup about 6 years. Growing up I had no problem with acne or blemishes.
About six years ago when I was 20 years old i had a bad case of adult acne. I would breakout constantly for no reason. It was crazy. Once I breakout literally …
Style Aromatherapy - Moroccan Argan Conditioner
I have been using the Style Aromatherapy leave-in conditioner for a while and I absolutely love it. In fact I have a review on it here as well if you want to check it out.
I decided to go ahead and try some more of their products and …
Sally Hansen French Manicure Kit
I recently purchased the Sally Hansen French Manicure kit, as I had been wanting to get a manicure but refused to pay $45 for something that probably won’t last.
I have not been disappointed with the kit. Priced at just under ten dollars, the kit comes complete with two …
Coastal Scents 88 Color Makeup Palette
I am bound to say I fought off temptation to buy this gorgeous palette for days on end, but at last, I gave up and ordered one at Amazon.com. Delivery was prompt and safe, since the item was heavily protected, padded all over by copious bubble wrap to prevent …
NYC Blushable Creme Stick
I recently purchased the NYC Blushable Creme Stick in two different shades. It is a creme blush stick that I purchased at Walgreen’s. There aren’t that many shades available, about four I think. They come in stick form and you can twist the container to get the blush to …
Bath and Body Works Signature Collection Powder Spray
If you are looking for a great gift for a woman in your life or a girly girl family member, you cannot go wrong with The Bath and Body Works new line of Luxe Perfumes. As a Christmas gift, they will look absolutely glam and super expensive all …
Clean & Clear Morning Burst Surge Energizing Cleansing Pads
Clean & Clear Morning Burst Surge Energizing Cleansing Pads cost around $16 when I bought it online. I used it for a month, as far as I can remember, but I like it anyway because it did not annoy me. As a cleanser I think it is quite good, …
Physician’s Formula Eyeliner Pencil
I use the Physician’s Formula Dark Brown eyeliner pencil. This is the best eyeliner in the world. I don’t know how other eyeliner companies can still be in business with Physician’s Formula out there, it seriously blows everything out of the water. The lead in this pencil is so …
Burt’s Bees Honey Lip Balm
You know that old question that goes: So you’re stranded on an island with no hope of rescue, what are the three things you’d have with you?
Well, for me, I’d want my family photo album (duh), a very thick book of poetry (or a romance book, depending on whether or …
Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub
The first time I tried the Bubblegum Lip Scrub from Lush it was given to me as a freebie after I purchased a giftset - I adored the smell, taste and effects so much that I’ve been buying it ever since. It comes in a small glass pot with …
Chance from Chanel
I am an old school Chanel wearer, so I have never tried one of their newer scents till I had the chance to try Chance. I think they are trying really hard to stay true to the original Chanel scents and just trying to change up the original …
Maybelline Lash Stylist Mascara in Brownish Black
The Product
Brownish black shade, although has brown to it still looks more of a black color on the lashes.
The container is a matte black plastic tube with matching black screw cap where the comb-like brush is attached.
This has a plastic scent and is quite offensive when smelled directly from …
Silicon Super Sili Make-up Pad by Essence
A few weeks ago, I went to the store and saw this phenomeno: silicon make-up pad. When I googled that thing I actually found out that it has been out there for a while now, I’m just the last one to know. However, I’ve never heard any beauty bloggers talk …
Moisturizing Body Wash for dry skin
This is not the first product I purchase under the brand of Clairol. This is the latest addition to the products I tried. I’ve heard so much about it but It wasn’t such a big deal before until my aunt gave this to me and let me try, I …
Shiseido Make Up Luminizing Satin Eye Color in Fondant
I certainly have an eye for color, specially when it comes to my eye makeup. Right now, I have this passionate yearning for pastel shades. Maybe I’m just dying to take a break from the monotonous eye shadows and alternatively skip the autumnal hues for brighter …
Avon SOS Dry Hand Cream
When it comes to Avon I have to say for the most part of their items I am a huge fan. I have had the odd ‘hit and miss’ product but this tends to be rare and one such range that has never let me down is their …
Poetry in Lotion
I write poetry in my spare time so with a product name like this, I just couldn’t pass it up. Poetry in Lotion is one of those products you should try at least once in your life because there are a lot of great qualities about it that I …
Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter cuticle creme
I had never heard of Burt’s Bees products until I started working at Walgreens and this was back when the company was still very small, fairly unknown and before being organic and natural became popular. One day I was stocking and facing the beauty care aisle and noticed that …
Maxi-Peel Exfoliant Cream #3 Advanced
I have a couple of blemishes in my face and one big blemish in my chin, to be exact, irked me so much. It resulted as a cause of a big pimple I had just over 2 weeks ago. The pimple was gone now but it had left …
Maybelline Superstay Lip Color
I have tried both the Maybelline Superstay Lip Color and the Covergirl version and they are both pretty good. It claims to offer 16 hours of liquid color, unaffected by eating or drinking. Well, that may not be quite true, but it still does stay on pretty …
Telescopic Mascara by L’oreal
Well, my girlfriend got this particular brand of mascara a while ago and decided to let her review it:
The mascara was mainly attractive in the package because of the good-looking applicator brush, and while she was applying the mascara, noted that applying it was a bit of a …
Phytheol Intense Shampoo Treatment
The problem of dandruff has always been a great cause of concern to me for many years. Though the dandruff keeps appearing and disappearing at regular intervals, their occurrence not only makes my hair feel dull and lifeless but also makes me feel highly uncomfortable. The constant itching coupled …
Neutrogena Triple Moisture Silk Touch Leave in Cream

Classic Xtra Fresh Scent - soap powder
I was broke recently and ended up buying a box of soap powder at our local discount store. Usually I use a name brand, but this time I bought Xtra Classic in Fresh Scent. This detergent came in a 793gram box.
I found this powder detergent smelt almost exactly like …
LUSH Jasmine & Henna Fluff Eaze Hair Treatment
I recently purchased the LUSH Jasmine and Henna Fluff Eaze Hair Treatment. I was already a huge fan of LUSH products so I definitely expected to fall in love with this hair treatment. Though expensive, I was really in need of a good hair treatment to deal with the …
Champneys Chamomile & Rose Intense Moisture Mask
I have wanted to try something from the Champneys range for a while as the packaging looks quite luxurious and as I am on an anti-ageing blitz after years of neglect, I thought I would try this Chamomile & Rose Intense Moisture Mask. It was rather expensive at …

The Product
Pink Cream shade is actually not pink in color but rather a pale brown with micro shimmers.
The container is a plastic squeeze tube with a brush-tip applicator. The total weight of this lip product is 14 mL.
This has a sweet scent but I did not detect any particular …
Physicians Formula Mineral Wear 3-in-1 concealer
A few months ago I was browsing ULTA for new makeup and seeing what sort of new brands and products were out. While at the checkout line waiting to be serviced I came across this section for Physicians Formula Mineral Wear makeup, and saw that they had some new …
They’re Real Beyond Mascara By Benefit
They’re Real Beyond Mascara by Benefit is not only one of my favorite mascaras from Benefit, but it’s one of my favorite mascaras period. If you’re looking for a mascara that gives you long-wearing thick, long, full, lush lashes without clumps and fullness that falls out within a few …
St. Ives Timeless Skin Collagen Elastin Facial Moisturizer
My skin type is combination, and I tend to suffer from a lot of the conditions that other individuals with combination skin experience. I tend to suffer periodically from acne outbreaks and the size of my pores around the oily areas of my face are enlarged. Even …
Colgate Advanced Whitening and Stain Removal
I love coffee so much and so staining my teeth is unavoidable. Even if I brush with a regular toothpaste the yellowish tint on my teeth are still there. It’s not that too yellow but you can really see the difference how my teeth have become after how many …
Clairol’s The One and Only Colorfix
It is a terrible thing when you color your hair at home, only to turn parts of it green and the rest way darker than the color appears on the box. That is exactly what happened to me recently, and I could not afford to go to the …
Christian Lacroix Rouge Shower Gel
I first tried the Perfume of this just over 3 years ago and it is still 1 of my most favourite scents. It’s not typically a scent I would think would be my kind of scent, but it’s nice in a different way.
Within the scent you get this …
Creamy Moisturizing Oil
First of all , I find the scent is smelling incredibly too strong and too cloying for my nose. An other problem, this smell has a big lasting power and it bothers me so much! After using this, I had to wash my elbows to get rid of that …
Loreal Dream Blonde
I started off with an amber blonde, as I called it hair colour with highlights. It started turning a brassy colour on me so I picked up some hair colour at Walgreens that was on clearance. It was Loreal Dream Blonde in the shade Medium Ash Blonde.
I wasn’t sure …
Mario Badescu Buffering Lotion
I just received my package of Mario Badescu Buffering Lotion today. I’ve been eyeing this product for quite some time in forums and other beauty sites. They say that the Buffering Lotion can easily get rid of cystic acne. I know how cystic acne can be so bothersome! It’s …
Motions Shine Enhancing Pomade
Motions Shine-Enhancing Pomade is quite an interesting little product. Designed to help hold curls, it also doubles as a protectant against heat styling tools. Like many pomades, this one is quite thick. And to some people it may feel greasy between the fingers. …
Neutrogena Naturals Purifying Pore Scrub
I recently scoured the aisles at my local CVS in search of the perfect face wash. I was looking for something that was gentle enough for daily use, but strong enough to fend off the occasional blemish and leave my skin feeling silky smooth. Luckily, I found Neutrogena Naturals Purifying …
Lancome Blanc Expert Whitening Eye Treatment
I have naturally dark eye area. A lot of people say that they complement my face and that I look very pretty even if they’re noticeable. Nevertheless, I wanted to try removing them, because they become too evident when I get stressed or stay up late. This can be …
L’Oreal Voluminous Mascara Carbon Black 2X
This review is for the newest version of the Voluminous mascara in carbon black. I tried this one after using the original version to compare and am hooked! I love this mascara. It beats any department store brand hands down for a fraction of the cost. I have dark, …
