Sebastian Shaper Plus Hairspray
Most of my experiences with hairsprays in the past were okay, but it has always been difficult for me to find a hairspray that I absolutely loved. They would either be to sticky, have harsh smells, or dry out my hair. Although I love the way that …
Stila Eyeshadow in Grace

Revlon - Age Defying Make-Up
I have no idea what ‘botafirm SPF20′ is but it doesn’t sound like something that is designed to go on your face. And using Revlon’s Age Defying Make-Up (which contains botafirm SPF20) rather proves the point that it might be better used elsewhere. This is a wishy-washy product that …

Philosophy Coconut Frosting Shower Gel
Philosophy is known for constantly putting out 3-in-1 shampoo, shower gel, and bubble bath in an endless variety of scents.

Vichy Lift Active Eyes Cream
I make it a point not to believe products that claim to get rid of wrinkles, scars and other things that only expensive plastic surgery can do. My mother, on the other hand, believes a lot of the claims, and the upside is that she usually buys me the products …
