Head and Shoulders Dandruff Shampoo -Citrus Breeze
I much prefer to use the one dollar shampoos as I feel that they do just as good of a job cleaning the hair as the more expensive shampoos, however when my hair gets an extremely oily feeling I prefer to use this shampoo every so often for a …
Mary Kate and Ashley lip gloss
No lies, I find this lip gloss really great! At first, I was a teeny bit apprehensive because the color was looking so dark blood red in the tube so I was afraid of putting that shade on my lips. I was surprised when I put it on me. …
Olay Ultra Moisture Body Wash
I already have very dry skin on my body and it being winter, my body skin feels drier than ever before. So especially during this time of the year, I make an effort to do everything possible to ensure my body skin in well-moisturized, using any products necessary to …
Philosophy Gingerbread Man Exfoliating Scrub
It seems like very few people take baths these days. It’s all about the quick and easy shower. I, however, am a big fan of taking long baths. The best part about baths are the salts and scrubs you get to use in them. I was recently given the …
Clean and Clear Blackhead Pore Scrub
I had decided to purchase Clean and Clear’s Blackhead Pore Scrub because it was just under $4.00 and I really needed a good scrub. My pores unfortunately are clogged quite easily. The packaging is a dark blue that fades into a lighter blue on the front. It comes in …
NYC foundation smooth skin liquid makeup
This liquid foundation is extremely affordable and cheap around $1 ! It does not have a pump so it is hard to get the foundation out when it is almost all used up. In my opinion the foundation …
Arm & Hammer Age Defying Toothpaste
This review is for the Arm & Hammer Age Defying Toothpaste.
I am always in search of tooth products that actually live up to the claims they have in their advertising. How do I get whiter stronger teeth without spending a fortune or using harsh bleaching kits. …
Revlon Brow Fantasy Pencil & Gel
My brows are so sparse that I’m considering getting an eyebrow transplant. When I go to a salon to have my brows plucked, the beautician doesn’t know where to begin. You know how you’re supposed to pluck any strays from the defined brow? Well, my entire …
VMV Hypoallergenics Alcohol-Free Tender Toner
I have never used any toner in my life. The closest thing to toners that I have probably used is a facial cleanser or astringent. And I’ve only used product as my facial cleanser and that is the Eskinol Whitening Facial Cleanser. I have long asked myself if there …
Vidal Sassoon 1875 hairdryer
I bought the Vidal Sassoon 1875 hairdryer 2 and a half years ago, as a fairly impulsive purchase when about to embark on a trip and I had to leave the ‘family’ hairdryer behind. Whenever I buy hairdryers, I go for the cheap portable ones; I like them …
Suave Exhale Calming Body Lotion
I suffer from dry skin, and it is hard for me to find products that moisturize it well. My mother purchased this lotion for me a long time ago, but I was reluctant to use it. I felt that it would not adequately moisturize my skin since …
MAC eyeshadow in White Frost
As the name implies, MAC eyeshadow in White Frost is a basic white frost eyeshadow. However, I find the “frost” in MAC White Frost eyeshadow to not be over the top; instead, I find it to be more of a strong shimmer. I have not had a problem …
Clarins Hydra-Care Tinted Moisturizer SPF 6
Mostly the moisturizers that we get is colored white. It does not have bearing on our skin tone because of its plain color. I discovered this moisturizer from Clarins which is tinted. There are two tones available “bisque” and “gold”. I like the tint that this moisturizer has because …
Hair Off Instant Eyebrow Shapers
There are 18 sets of shapers pre-cut along with a brow pencil in this box. The cold wax strips require no heating. It claimed all I had to do was put one of the strips either above or below my eyebrows and press them down. Then I would just …
Aziza Nail Polish
Aziza is not a well-known name in the cosmetic world here in Canada where I live. So when I found Aziza nail polish at my local dollar store, I quickly bought it. After all in Europe, the Aziza name sells for about the same price as Revlon and L�Oreal …
Neutrogena Healthy Defense Tinted Moisturizer
This is my new favorite thing. I’ve long been a fan of Neutrogena daily moisturizers with SPF protection of one kind or another. But lately I’ve been looking for something not as heavy and dark as a full foundation. I started looking at tinted moisturizers, and …

Ettusais Acne Whitening Essence

L’oreal Pure Zone Deep Exfoliating Gel
One of the most effective anti acne products I’ve used is L’oréal Pure Zone Deep Exfoliating Gel, i discovered this product in my search of the ‘best’ product to reduce my acne outbreaks. On the label of this product it stated “Isobacter Technology Anti-Bacterial Action with Salicylic Acid, 93% …
Yves Rocher Organic Vanilla Shower Gel
I adore the smell of vanilla, it’s so feminine and comforting that it really is (to me) the nicest smell going. I’ve used lots of vanilla bath and body products but have never been as thrilled with the fragrances as I am when, say, I burn a vanilla candle. …
Avon Skin So Soft Creamy Body Wash
After years of using soap, I started using Avon Skin So Soft Creamy Body Wash after it was given to me as a gift by my sister in law and I must say, since then it has become a permanent fixture in my bathroom. No more soap for me!
I …
Revlon - Midnight Swirl - Lip Lustre - Currant Affair
As I sat down to write this review, I could not figure out what this gloss smells like to save my life! I thought it was cherries.
I just got it: triaminic. It smells like Triaminic the kid’s cough syrup; the grape flavored one. Exactly.
If you’re not bothered by that …
Philosophy “Amazing Grace” Perfumed Firming Body Emulsion
I so love this new discovery of mine, the Philosophy Amazing Grace Perfumed Firming Body Emulsion. I got it as a gift from a friend and I really can’t thank her enough for this wonderful gift.
First of all, the scent of this product is to die for! It is …
Palladio Herbal Lengthening Mascara Black
This is a great lengthening mascara to try. I have to say that the applicator brush takes a little getting use to. I wish it was a little bit better, but the mascara itself is great. This stuff is very affordable and does good things for the look of …
NYX Smokey Look Lip Gloss
I am so happy that I purchased this lip gloss, it definitely was a great buy! This season, I’ve been looking for a lot of pale colors and neutral colors of lip gloss, lipsticks, blush, eyeshadow, etc! I try not to be too bold for the calmer seasons, like …
L’Oreal Root Rescue 10 Minute Root Coloring Kit, Medium Blonde
I purchased this product based mostly on it’s low price. That was my first mistake. I also believed the claims that I read on the package - covers gray, blends with any hair color, easy application. That was my second mistake. This product was simply …
Boots Botanics Complexion Refining Toner
A few months ago I bought Boots Botanics Complexion Refining Toner for $8 from a store. It was a refining toner which can help tighten the pores in case you have big ones, which might lead to blackheads as well. I used refining lotions before but I decided to …
Sunsilk Daring Volume Spray-On Mousse
I was really excited to see Sunsilk products being sold at my local dollar store. I love Sunsilk products, but they cost at least $2-4 in the regular stores, depending on the specific item. So when I saw them at such a discount, I decided to pick up …
Watsons Sculpting Lotion
The Watsons Sculpting Lotion is really one of the best hair finishing lotions I have tried. I got my first bottle of this by chance when I was having a shopping at Watsons. This was on sale for about 50% off. That time I picked only one bottle for …
EOS Lip Balm
The EOS Lip Balm gets a rating of 9 out of 10 in my opinion. It is seriously my new favorite lip product. I purchased this after seeing all of the hype about EOS (or Evolution of Smooth) products from YouTube Beauty gurus as well as beauty bloggers all …

I have used Cover Girl liquid foundation for years, followed by using loose powder to set the foundation before I apply blush, eye shadow and lip gloss. Finally a friend convinced me to try Cover Girl TruBlend Powder Foundation, as it is a two in one product meaning it …
Garnier light moisturizer
If you are into whitening and on a lower budget, i would really suggest to try on Garnier light moisturizer. Like most of the Light line, it contains Long Dan extract and pure lemon essence which is known for its capability to even out skin tone. Vitamin C is …
Bottega Verde White peach Smoothing body cream
When Bottega Verde offers testers I am the first one to try them out, the main reason for that is that I like Bottega Verde products and the other one is that I really like trying out new stuff. My sister has been a Bottega Verde member for years …
Lancome Teint Miracle Foundation
My plan was to get friendly with the sales people at a lancome counter the next time I drop by, so I could bring home a sample of the Lancome Teint Miracle foundation. It couldn’t have gotten much easier when my sister informed me that she got one …
MAC Lustreglass in WONDERSTRUCK (A28)
I’ve heard so many good things about the MAC range of lipglosses that I simply had to give it a go, despite not being all too big a fan on glosses. I simply do not like my lips looking like I’ve tucked into a mega oil fest for dinner. …
Clairol Nice & Easy Hair Color, #102 Light Ash Blonde
I like to experiment with different hair colors, and have been all of the major hair colors and even some of the minor ones (such as pink). When I went blond, I used Clairol Nice & Easy Hair color in #102, Light Ash Blond because it was a …
Aveda Smooth Infusion Conditioner

Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle Rose Conditioner
I recently purchased the Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle Rose conditioner from my local Whole Foods store. One container cost me about thirteen dollars and contains eleven ounces of product. This is definitely more than I typically spend on one bottle of conditioner, but not unreasonably expensive by any means.
The …
Thymes Essentials AHA Lotion
I used to buy a lot of AHA lotions in the past because tehy were pretty good. One of them was Thymes Essentials AHA Lotion which may be inexpensive, but just as good as the many other brands I used before. I actually bought this product for $10 online. …
Chanel Le Vernis Nail Polish in Illusion d’or
I was able to fiddle with this beautiful Chanel nail polish for a newspaper write-up. I have kept my nails free of lacquered vanities for many days now. I’m too busy to be minding my nails. If there’s one irresistible thing that could possibly send back …
Almay Line Smoothing Pressed Powder Light
I swear that five years ago I didn’t even have to consider dealing with lines and wrinkles or anything that remotely suggested I was getting older. But, in these last five years, I’ve actually gone through quite a few major changes in my life including getting a job after …
Avon Skin So Soft Hair Removal Cream (Facial)
I was tired of using that dang Nair hair removal, it was too harsh on my skin and I would always turn red, and burning always occurred. I was looking through a family member’s Avon book and I saw this product, it was inexpensive so I decided hey, why …
Bobbi Brown Deluxe Travel Kit
I travel in really huge scale and I really hate the process of packing for the trip, unpacking when you are at the hotel, packed when you head to the airport and finally unpack again. However, this is the only methodology available and since I do love to feel …
Softsoap Pomegranate & Mango

A few months ago I bought Watson’s Green Tea Mud Pack for 80 pesos at a retail store. It weighed 1.7 oz, and lasted for months. Here is my review.

Revlon Colorstay 2 in 1 Compact Makeup and Concealer (180 Sand Beige)

Chanel Double Perfection
I recently purchased Chanel Double Perfection foundation from online for approx 18 british pounds, the packaging is simple and the product itself comes in a clear, glass pump bottle.

The consistency of this …
Nesti Dante Chic Animalier Bronze Natural Soap

Revlon ColorStay Liquid Eye Pen
