I recently purchased the Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum from a local salon. This product is definitely not specific to the salon that I went to. I know that it is available where most hair care products are sold as well as online. It is very inexpensive. The purpose …

This Ahava Energizing Body Mud Mask is the first body mud mask that I’ve ever used. I’ve used a few mud masks for my face but never for my body and I was unsure how I would feel about a mud mask on my body when I barely liked …

This is, hands down, the best hand cream I have ever used. It is thick, but absorbs quickly, and is not perfumed. It does come in perfumed versions, but I prefer the unscented original.
The price is pretty average in my opinion, and one tube lasts a long …

When I worked at Bath and Body works years ago we were able to take samples home with us of our products so that we could try them out and give our customers personal reviews of what we thought of them. This was really nice to do because people …

I purchased a pot of Clarin’s Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch two months ago on impulse. I usually buy their Beauty flash balm but the retailer was out of stock.
The consultant explained how to use Instant Smooth but I was still a bit sceptical. Anyway, after …

I have been using Suave shampoo and conditioner for over twenty years. I really like the product, plus the fact that it is one of the less expensive products on the market. But, it is not cheap shampoo. Once I was in the beauty shop and a woman …

Now a days many people or many teenagers are using the shampoo called head and shoulders, which promises to cure or get rid of dandruff permanently. So even I tried this shampoo for my hair, when I used it for 4 months I came to know that this shampoo …

I have been in the market testing for various make ups. I am fond of this episode, I felt like I am engaging in “animal testing” which is extremely forbidden. When I do portraits shoot, I have a mini bag where I place all the necessary make ups I …

The Vicco turmeric cream is a multi purpose creme, which is made using the ingredients such as the turmeric, sandalwood, rose water, and many such ingredients. This is a pure herbal creme, which is pale yellow in color. This creme can be used to apply on the …

I don’t like much color on my lips so I chose the light pink shade hoping that this will stay for a really long time like it was suppose to. I have lips on the darker side and want them more paler. This was another one of the makeup …

Though Body Shop products usually never disappoint me, I am disappointed in the Dreamboat milk bath.
It doesn’t foam much, doesn’t smell like much, and doesn’t leave my skin as smooth and milky as I might like. I don’t even care for the color, which is kind of a …

Product: Maybelline expertwear Eye Shadow Single
Colors: Cinnamon Spice, Earthly Taupe, Urban Brown
I picked up these three brown tones for a friend who has a lovely olive complexion; we gave each other makeovers and she applied these three shades to my face, with unfortunate results. It just goes to show …

I received this product in a bath gift set from my mother. I have always been the type of person who prefers to take showers over baths since they tend to be more convenient and easier for me to wash my hair. However, lately I have been …

I got a sample of this cuticle cream and I only used it two times before finally giving up. What I’ve hated so much about this one is the awful greasy feeling it was leaving on my hand. Habitually, other cuticule cream I’ve tried were soaking very quickly into …

I was out to buy a certain cleanser when my local retailer had run out of stock. Scratching my head, I threw uninterested glances at other cleansers inversely stocked to the brim. I saw that salicylic acid remained a deterrent in Neutrogena’s cleansers, citing my sensitivity, and …

When I saw this Sephora Collection Glitter Spray, I thought it looked really cute and thought that it would be good for adding some shimmer to my all over bronzer than I use or on top of my tan. I thought that would be really cute.
I thought that …

I wasn’t really looking for a nude lipstick when I bought this Too Faced Lip Of Luxury Lipstick in Totally Nude because I already have quite a few that I love but I really loved the packaging for this and I love Too Faced makeup products so I decided …

I have been having pimple from long time. It had left many scars too. I heard about Fruit of the earth Aloe Vera Gel 100% and thought of giving it a try as it was coming under my budget. One thing I want to clear that it is not …

A friend gave me this body lotion as a gift. I admit I am personally not a huge fan of body lotions since I am often too lazy to put it on. So, I was surprised to have gotten this from my friend, who gushed to me about how …

I really like colored eyeliner because I feel like it can make an every day look pop and be a little more fun and exciting without being over the top. I especially love these kind of looks for the spring, and my favorite colored eyeliner would have to be …

Before boarding my flight to Vilanculos from Johannesburg, I bought some stuff from the airport’s Duty Free Shop. I sort of got a blank cheque as a Christmas present from my husband. Things which I could not find locally include my favorite brands of make-up and I took advantage …

There are actually two versions of this product, the stick version and the roll-on version. This review is for both since I’ve already tried both of them.
I’ll start with the good. There’s always this hoax that when you use deodorants, you’re bound to see your underarms darken. That’s why …

Changing beauty product seems usual for me. I like to try new product especially when I got bored with the product that I used before. Like this time, I try to use Fresh Soft Sense Whitening Body Lotion.
First time I bought this body lotion is because the interesting bottle …

I think I’m falling in love with Pureology shampoo. It’s sort of a clandestine affair I have with this product because if my husband realized what I was spending on it, I’m pretty sure he’d divorce me. It’s not a cheap shampoo in the least, costing almost $30 for …

To be one hundred percent honest, I was originally drawn to this lip balm (or, chap-stick) because of its unique and cool design. The lip balm comes enclosed in a little circular container that looks like a ping pong ball, and you unscrew it to reveal the ball of …

I really hate the fact that I’m now apparently addicted to Pureology products, mostly because they are SO expensive. This volume shampoo by Pureology was one of the most expensive that I’ve tried at about $50 a bottle. Yeah, I can’t believe I spent that much on shampoo either. …

I have a sensitive, combination skin so I am always on the hunt for good skin products, specifically face-washes, since they are the of the integral part of ones hygiene routine.
Face-washes that I have tried in the past have one of these two major drawbacks : either they don’t …

This is the most money that I have ever paid for an eye makeup remover. The funny thing is, I don’t even actually use it as an eye makeup remover, I use it to remove my long lasting lipstick. Although this product is very nice, it is …

I got this mask at a really cheap price from an online beauty store. It only cost me $7 for a 100ml of mask. I love how the mask contains natural ingredients like barley or also known as Job’s tear extract to others. Pearl barley is great for dry …

I use this product once a year because I am involved in an annual production at my local amphitheater that runs for about four weekends, and the part requires that I have dark hair. I find it’s much easier to go with this semi-permanent hair-dye rather than using …

I saw this product while watching Home Shopping Network, and I was really interested. I have had it with razors, creams and waxes. So I thought I’d try my luck with new technology and hoped I would get smoother legs. It was priced at $30 plus shipping. A whooping …

One of my favorite moisturizing facial creams to use is Juice Organics PomPeptide Lifting Facial Moisturizer. I like this moisturizer because it is light and creamy in texture with this pleasant light fruity scent to it. The moisturizer is not heavy, sticky, or greasy on my skin and does …

Maybelline’s new 24HR Color Tattoos claim to be a “cream gel shadow” that will stay put all day without primer. While Maybelline claims these are eyshadows, I feel like this works a lot better as eye shadow bases, unless you like to wear one color of shadow, which most …

Although my ethnicity is African-American, I have never used African products to resolve my skin troubles. Most of the time I resorted to using and applying conventional products that are popularly recognized to resolve skin issues. However, my attitude changed after I stumbled across Dudu Osun Black Soap. For …

I do not usually buy expensive health care products and cosmetics. I am the type that I rely on the best products which costs fits my budget. I only bought Hope in a Jar moisturizer because I already lost hope with Avon Moisturizer I was using. I thought that …

One of the products that I use recently is Pond’s White Beauty Pinkish-White Glow Lightening Cream. I’d been using this for almost five months now. Although I don’t apply this product every night (I get so sleepy that sometimes, I skip my pre-sleeping beauty routine), it really worked for …

I have developed light dark spots beneath my eyes because of too much sun exposure. I have been surfing a lot these days and that activity alone is really has worst repercussions. I like the deep tan that I get but the light brown spots in my cheek bone, …

I recently purchased the Cover Girl & Olay Simply Ageless Serum Primer from my local Walgreen’s. I was in need of a new primer and this one seemed reasonably priced. Unfortunately, I highly regret making this purchase because this primer has not worked well for me at all. The …

A few weeks ago I was in the market for a new eye cream. Since I’m in my late 20s, I was looking for something that reduces puffiness and dark circles and prevents fine lines and wrinkles (I don’t have any, yet). I had been using Hope …

I love the neutrogena utlra sheer dry touch sunblock in spf 85 for my husband. It has several things that make it great for men. It does not sting the skin after shaving like some and it does not look oily or smell girly. It also …

Gold Bond body powder is great, and it does everything it advertises: cools, relieves itching, and absorbs sweat. However, that medicinal smell is the worst. I like the powder for all it does, but can’t bring myself to use it any place but my shoes because it reminds me …

I bought myself this when I was in my local branch of Primark. I had heard of this range before, but never seen it for sale in the shops. There was a little tub of these at Checkout and I was actually looking for a Lip Balm when I …

I am an asian, and I have a south-east asian skin color. I’m chinese, but I also have Indonesian blood running inside :) so how does i look? I am brown colored :D the problem for many asians are, they want their skin to be white, so guess what …

Avon Advanced Techniques Intense Repair Hair Treatment was highly recommended by my hair dresser as a fix for my dry, devitalized hair. She put some on my hair on my last visit and I loved it so much that I ordered some right away from Avon.
I’ll start with …

I really love this blush! This is BEAUTIFUL. The colour is a peachy-pink with very subtle gold shimmer/sheen. I got this as a gift for my birthday from my best friend. Deep throat is a Peachy-Pink (not Pinky peach). Definitely goes on more pink. It has a gold duo …

This inexpensive conditioner is simply named —˜Rosemary Conditioner’ and I bought a 200ml bottle from a Marks & Spencer store. Its main selling point is that it is “kinder for you and for the environment” - a completely natural hair conditioner with no artificial colors and no preservatives …

I have pale skin and ash blonde hair and so my eyebrows are very light colored as well. In my youth, before I knew the proper way to shape and tweeze my eyebrows, I went a little crazy and over the years, never learning the proper techniques, I’ve tweezed …

Buying shampoos and conditioners in the grocery has now become harder because there are so many permutations that I really have to take the time to read through the labels. My mother becomes impatient waiting for me, and so sometimes I just go by the manufacturer. One such purchase …

I was stuck on top of the roof when Ondoy/Ketsana hit my place hard. I walked out through waist-high flood (yuck!) in order to get to safety. The first thing I looked for in the grocery was alcohol. After cleaning up, I shopped at Rustan’s Supermarket, where their house …

Lip Balms are my ultimate stress releivers and having one in each purse and in each room is very important for me. I can’t stand it when my lips are chapped or just somewhat dry, so I get really crazy if that happens and a chapstick isn’t around. But only …
