Although I am officially —˜middle-aged’ I do like using a face wash a couple of times a week that is especially formulated to purify and clear the skin as I do still have a tendency to a few blemishes. Because I am older I do need such a …

I have been a user of Olay for quiet sometime now. Olay products work well at first but in later time it will let you down. I only get interested with Olay Total Effects for Face and Neck Night Firming cream because I noticed that my neck is sagging …

I was not pretty aware of bath salts until I saw this body fusion bath salt at the racks and the attractive packaging and scent inspired me to buy this. Priced at an affordable cost, it did not feel like I did an unnecessary luxury at all. This bath …

I bought this product when I passed by Metro Market Market Department Store at the beauty care section to look for a good body scrub that I can use to pamper my skin and will improve my skin tone. It is made in Thailand but is readily available here …

This is the best mousse I have ever used , and it does so much more than just hold your hair in place. I have long wavy hair , and this is really the only mousse I have tried that works for me. It is a very good product …

I got my Dep Curl Defining Gel on thursday last week at a local mall here in the Philippines for 234 pesos (that is around 5 US dollars). I only intended to buy a conditioner at the time but for some reason I just happened to check …

I have been very disappointed with this mascara, I just have complaints about it and there are several reasons. First, the brush is so awful. It has a fluffy side that is OK but a flat side that is absolutely useless. I had a lot of difficulties working with …

Out of all the curling irons I have talked about in my time I finally have one worth screaming about. I can honestly say that this one is golden. I spent my whole entire life looking for a curling iron that did more than just curl. I wanted some …

I was shopping for a new eyelash curler when I read a quick post on someone’s blog hailing this item as the best eyelash curler. I could not comprehend the physical design of this eyelash curler the first time I caught a glimpse of it online. I …

Barbara Daly is a make-up artist who has designed a range of cosmetics especially for Tesco supermarket. I have tried a few items of make-up from the range and I find it to be a bit hit and miss. The whole range is very cheap and this …

Smooth lips are very important to me. I absolutely hate the feeling of dry cracked lips. They hurt and look unattractive. But I also don’t like applying petroleum jelly on my lips as it is just too goopy and my hair always gets stuck on my lips, it is …

I had been using Proactiv for a few months with good results, I have been having mild acne, mostly non inflamed whiteheads here & there. I was really loving the Proactiv & one day while I was at the drugstore I saw AcneFree, advertising that it is better than …

A light, modern scent with a citrus-y and floral blend, Clinique Happy is one of my most favorite body lotions. It is aptly named ‘happy’, although in my opinion bestowing the name of ‘Energizing’ upon it would not be out of place either. Research studies have shown that citrus …

Summer is always here, and so is my quest for an ungreasy face sunscreen that will protect with a high enough SPF, but will not feel heavy on my face, and will also allow makeup to go on over top without streaking or coming off. Quite a tall order, and …

This color of nail polish is so amazingly pretty, I have never owned anything like this before! I am so happy that I purchased this nail polish this season, because I’m ahead of schedule for Winter colors, where all of the cool colors are in! The name of this …

I bought these nail polish remover pads from elf cosmetics for a dollar. I like to use them instead of the original nail polish remover. These pads are easy to use, smell great, and cheap. I also like the fact that they make my nails soft and shiny. I …

I love mineral makeup, it’s definitely better than liquid foundation. I’ve always had problems with liquid foundation, either it was to cakey, too heavy, too oily, etc but with every liquid foundation that I’ve tried just didn’t work well on my skin. I’m so happy that mineral makeup was …

I’ve tried a few lip plumpers by Sally Hansen and I never really got goo results from most of them and I had tried the original lip inflation by Sally Hansen and I saw somewhat of a difference but not much and I thought that maybe because I saw …

difficult time …

This is another product I love from Tarina Tarantino. I was in the search of a great primer that has natural ingredients and mostly without paraben as preservative in them. Imagine my delight, when I found this primer.
I love the packaging of the primer as it is packed …

I was a bit hesitant to purchase this eyebrow product, because I never used anything like it before, and I wasn’t so sure how it would turn out, I was actually afraid that I would end up looking crazy with this, and I was worried that it would of …

Been a woman of a certain age, I learn a long time ago to take good care of my skin. For years I’ve been trying all kind of anti-wrinkle cream with different results, some good and some very disappointing.
Then about a year ago I decided to try on …

AN ANNOYINGLY NEEDED STAPLE IN MY LIFE:
Being a mix of Irish, Romanian, and some form of Anglo-Saxon (English, British, or Scottish), my skin is so pale it’s practically see-through. No really haha, my veins show through and i look purple when it’s cold, splotchy when my heart rate is …

Well, I bought this product when I was 50% off, which is habitually a great way for me to experience new brands and products. I’m so glad to haven’t paid to much for this because I didn’t liked it very much. I have to say it’s a very rich …

I have around the block many times, with my dilemma over stretch marks. I just can’t seem to find something that ever works.
Avon always has great products, but I was not expecting much when I bought this product. Nothing has ever worked before, so I didn’t think that …

After trying just about every stretch mark prevention cream on the market, Revitol was going to be my last hope.
I found this product on Amazon, for around $35. I read many great reviews about it, so it made me feel better spending the $35. Unfortunately, this was $35 …

I am not blessed with flawless skin, I have blemishes and spots here and there. What I do to make up for it is to cover it up with a Concealer. What does a concealer do? To put it simply, it covers up or hides blemishes. I don’t usually …

I have little or sparse Asian straight lashes, so I need something to make them look curled and stay curled for a long time. I have always had trouble with the normal eyelash curlers because of its curve and I often suffer from pinched lids every time I would …

Once a week, I always use facial mask for my face. I have learned this from men’s magazines that facial mask can provide your skin deep cleansing. Since then, my skin’s texture has been improve and even if I have breakouts sometimes, it is occasional only. A few weeks …

I just discovered this shampoo two weeks ago, and I’d been in love with it ever since. It’s just so great on my hair, and it’s made by L’Oreal, too, a big cosmetics company that knows hair and skin very well.
Boy, was I glad I bought this from …

I was pretty excited to see this bottle in the travel section. I had been looking for an aloe vera that came as a lotion. Although, it is not technically a travel size, since the bottle is 4 fluid ounces. I believe they would make me throw this out …

This is the worst deodorant I have ever tried. I bought it one time when I was out of deodorant and it was cheap. It was at the dollar store I think. I don’t like it all. It’s hard to get on your underarms, it doesn’t glide very well. …

The container is just the typical tub container of body butters from The Body Shop. This is stored in a baby pink color plastic round tub. This actually comes in a trio pack with body wash and a loofah.
This body butter has a sweet rose scent that is …

It was only two years ago when I started using lipsticks from Maybelline and all of them are variants from Watershine Pure. When running out, I just jump from variant to another. And I have fun of testing in the store of several variants of this. I have tried …

The packaging which the bottle comes in is the simple black mac design. The foundaton itself comes in a clear glass bottle with a screw on black lid. You have to purchase a foundation pump seperately if you wish which i think is the downside to this product. With …

Upon seeing a recent advertisement of the Veet Rasera Bladeless Kit on television, I opted to try the product. The commercial displayed a scene where a lady receives an unexpected visit by her boyfriend. She immediately excuses herself to the bathroom for a quick shave. It shows how she …

I am always on the lookout for face sunblock. If there is a new brand I have encountered, I always purchase their sunblock because I have not encountered anything pleasant with the sunblocks today. Except Neutrogena which has an excellent formula, most sunblock are very stressful. I always end …

Now I think I’ve passed the hundred mark for the amount of nail polishes I’ve owned and still owned, I think I had an addiction! I gave a few of them away though, the ones that I didn’t wear as much or only purchased for certain occasions/events, the ones …

I am a sun block queen. I have quite fair skin but i am not pale like paper if you ask me. I am just fair and crave those tan like most girls. I have learnt the hard way that sun tanning is bad and i get burned all …

I love L’Oreal skin care products and as I enter different life stages I find myself moving to different skin care routines. My Cosmetician suggested it was time for a stronger day cream and suggested L’Oreal Paris Skin Genesis Multi-Layer Cell Strengthening Daily Moisturizer SPF 15. This was a …

I’m very picky about the colors that I put on my eyes, I tend to pick brown, black, dark purple hues and I mostly stick to like a bronze shimmery brown color. When I saw this package of eye shadows, I fell in love with the color, however I …
