ELLE 18 - Kajal (Eyeliner) with Almonds
There is nothing that defines and completes any eye look better than a rich black eyeliner. In fact the eyeliner alone is enough to make the eyes pop and look sexier.
Kajal is an Indian name for the traditional black eyeliner paste. It has been used since the …
Clinique Different Lipstick in Ice Bloom
This Clinique lipstick in Ice Bloom was a tube that I received in a bonus with a Clinique purchase. That is how I get at least 60 or 70% of my Clinique lipsticks. I wait until one of the department stores is featuring a Clinique bonus, and I know …
Maybelline Lip Smooth
I have practiced being a make up artist at the same time so that while I am doing portrait photography, I can multi-task doing make up and taking the shots as well. I learned how to make up one time when the make up artist I hired could not …
Loreal Elvive Anti-Frizz Serum Smooth-Intense 100ml
I have a frequently washed hair and too much treated with straightening and ironing. Good thing I have found the right shampoo to use to moisture and make therapy for my damaged hair. But I still found out that shampooing and conditioning my hair is not enough. And the …
4VOO Silk-Enriched Shine Reduction Powder
I kept on searching for new men’s cosmetic brands online and one of the interesting brands I have discovered and tried is 4VOO. I have never heard of this brand but when I checked them online, magazines and beauty editors speak highly of it so I gave it a try. …
Aussie Tizz No Frizz Gel
Sometimes in a review you need to right to the point. I hate this product and only purchased it once. If you read my review you will also not want to purchase it. I have nothing against the makers of this product and I …
Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in Silver
One of the nail polish colors that I wear most on my nails is black and I just happened to past by these nail stick pens and thought that silver would look great against the black nail polish and that the silver would really pop. I also had seen …
Dove Powder Roll-On Anti-Perspirant Deodorant
I generally love buying products from Dove, but they’re usually so expensive here. I’ve used their soaps and body wash and loved it so much especially with how it made my skin feel. When I found out that they had deodorants too, I was eager to try them but was …
Bare Minerals Foundation
I love Bare Minerals! I love using it and telling others about this wonderful product. It’s very easy to use. In fact, my 14 year old daughter even finds it easy. You know how hard it is to impress a teenager these days!
I first got my foundation in a …
Nivea Soft Moisurizing Creme
I originally got this creme because with being a swimmer, you suffer from extremely dry skin. The chlorine eats away and leaves your skin very rough and flakey. I had read online that this moisturizer was a cheap alternative to dermatologist perscribed moistuizers and decided to give it a …
Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash Redness Soothing Gentle Scrub
I have been using Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash Redness Soothing Gentle Scrub for a long time, when I was able to get rid of my acne well. That began when I used to have severe pimples a few years back, until then I was just mindlessly scratching my acne …
V05 Herbal Escapes Kiwi Lime Squeeze
V05 Herbal Escapes Kiwi Lime Squeeze Clarifying Conditioner with Lemongrass Extract is a very inexpensive conditioner, but is it worth the money? I bought a bottle of this conditioner at my local Dollar Tree store for one dollar. I was in a pinch for money and out …
NYC Smooth Skin Bronzing Face Powder in Sunny
I don’t usually like NYC products because I find a lot of them are really bad quality. Granted, their products are really cheap and affordable for only around $1-$5, but I would rather pay more money for a good quality product that waste my money buying cheap ones that …
ScarAway Professional Grade Silicone Scar Treatment Sheets
I bought ScarAway Professional Grade Silicone Scar Treatment Sheets for $25 by ScarAway at Amazon.com to get rid of the scar on my thigh. It was due to an accident, and it was hard for me to get rid of it after using a lot of products before. I …

Garnier Skin Naturals Soft Essentials Facial Cleansing Wipes
These facial cleansing wipes from Garnier would be perfect if only they had a bit more moisture to them as I find I have to apply pressure to cleanse my face. They are effective and I think they have a lot of benefits to them apart from that. …
Maxi-Peel Exfoliant Cream #3 Advanced

Elizabeth Arden Perpetual Moisture 24 Lotion

Maybelline Fit Foundation
I recently purchased the Maybelline Fit Me Foundation from my local CVS Drugstore. Usually, I do a lot of research on foundation products before actually making the purchase. I need to know if the coverage is light, medium, or full. I need to know the cost. I need to …
Wet n Wild Speedgloss Energizing Lipshine in ‘Uncontrollable’
exactly one of their best formulas, in my opinion it’s still better than anything Jordana has to offer.
THE PACKAGING:
It came with a plastic safety band that was pretty easy to remove. I like the plastic bands, they reassure me that someone hasn’t been drooling all over the tube of …
VOV Candy Water Shine Lipgloss
I love pigmented lips, so I am always on the lookout for a lipgloss that is actually pigmented and gives color to my lips instead of being really sheer. I bought the VOV Candy Lipgloss in China when I was there for vacation a few summers ago, but I …

Organix Nourishing Coconut Milk Shampoo

Sally Hansen Complete Manicure Nail Polish
I wear nail polish every day. I like polishes that are long-lasting since doing my own nails can be time-consuming. So I don’t like to have to do my nails more than once a week. Once every 10 days or so is even better. So, …
Nihar Naturals Coconut Hair Oil with Jasmine and Methi

Rhea Salicylic Acid 10%
I hate that time of the month. Whenever it visits, it leaves my face some reddish souvenirs. The discoloration lasts up to more than a month, so I am always left with bumps and patches and they were growing in number. That’s when I decided that the cycle needs …
Alberto European Shampoo for Normal Hair
I remain a huge fan of Alberto hair products, but tend to buy more styling products than I do shampoo’s and conditioners. Recently a bottle of Alberto European Shampoo for normal hair caught my eye at the drug store.
While Alberto’s packaging hasn’t changed much, the shampoo bottle is still …
M.A.C. Lipglass

L’occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream

Clinique Pore Minimizer T-Zone Shine Control

Wet & Wild Bronzer
This bronzer, I actually found in my make-up collection. It took a moment to realize that it was bronzer instead of blush. I’d been using it as a blush for so long, that I never realized it until recently. The reason why I didn’t know it …
The Sunsilk Pink (smooth and manageable)
One day, I went to our class and I found out that my hair is so sticky maybe because of the sun and I have hard times to manage it. My Mother bought a shampoo and it was Sunsilk Pink (smooth and manageable). I saw it and since it …
Avon Pina Colada Bubble bath
Not sure if this was launched as a limited edition as it came into the main book and lasted a few months and then went into the sale book. Perhaps this is more a summer kind of scent as I would assume that this would be a summer one …
Qtica Intense Relief Lip Repair Balm
I only know Chapstick balm to treat my lips to keep it moisturized. I have lots of lip balms also at home but when I get tired I just leave it on my purse until it expires. If only I continue using those lip balms, I know that my …

I like playing and experimenting with makeup but I’m not one to buy expensive cosmetics. That’s why I love Careline’s line of products especially the eyeshadows and blushes. Careline is by Ever Bilena. A popular local cosmetics company that makes affordable cosmetics as good as the expensive ones.
I …
Etude House Trouble Eraser 24 Hour Powder
This is another product from Korea. I heard many good feedbacks from girlfriends who purchased them so i thought to myself why not. It has rather interesting product branding, no? Who would have thought a powder that works as an eraser is for acne treatment? It comes in …
Estee Lauder Pure Color Long Lasting Lipstick in Sugar Honey
I got this Estee Lauder lipstick in Sugar Honey as a bonus item that was included in a gift when I made a purchase. I have not been using Estee Lauder make-up for years, because I became interested in Clinique (which is a division of Estee Lauder, I believe). …

Rimmel Glam’Eyes Mascara in Extreme Black
I bought something by Rimmel and then another from a bin of sundry items costing below 5 CAD (in an Edmonton drugstore). I felt I had grabbed a fair quantity of stuff for a lot less money. In truth the slashed prices reflected a poverty in their …
Bioderma Atoderm PO Zinc Cream
I suffer with dry skin and dark patches due to pigmentation caused by UV exposure. A few years ago my dermatologist prescribed Bioderma Atoderm PO Zinc cream to use as a moisturizer and to repair my damaged and dry skin. A lot of people swear by their Bioderma skin …
