Revlon Eyelash Curler
I purchased my Revlon Eyelash Curler because my regular one from Sephora broke. I was prepared to have a less-than-satisfactory product because it was cheap. I think it cost me $4-5 or so. Boy was I wrong! This is the best curler I’ve ever had!
Alot of other curlers are …

L’oreal Elvive Keratin straight, shampoo
L’oreal Elvive Keratin straight is such a great shampoo. I have been using it in the past but then I stopped using L’oreal’s shampoos in general. Not because they are not good, do not get me wrong, but because Schwartzkopf Gliss products were on discount much more often so I …

Garnier Ultra Dolce Shampoo madreperla e fiori di ciliegio
Sometimes my daughters bring me shampoos from Italy because they usually buy them when they are on action, and that saves me some money and also saves me a trip to the shop. I must say that this second fact is much more important for me because I don’t …
MAC Mineralized Satin Finish SPF 15 Foundation
There are several mistakes women do. Let me cite some examples. We often apply face powder after putting face creams. Face powder normally clogs pores and we often use it to cover our oily face. Women always apply face powder to hide too much sebum in their faces not …

Sally Girl Sparkle Effect Loose Glitter
When I purchased the “Sally Girl ~Sparkle Effects~” online at sallysbeauty.com I honestly didn’t know what to expect. Being the girly girl that I am, I had been “needing” glitter for my experimentation and daily beauty regiment, but I also didn’t want to ay $6-$15 for an ounce of …

Given the choice I will, more often than not, wear black eyeliner. This is at least when I go to dinner or somewhere special. I really like black eyeliner because it helps to define the eyes and because my eyes are a hazel color it seems to …

Pureology Volume Shampoo
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. …
