I have dry skin and uneven skin tone. When I scratch my legs, I can see a white line forming and it stays like that. I would also like to have radiant and even skin tone because these equate to beauty and healthiness of my skin. I saw the …

The Gorilla Snot gel line has a growing fanbase in the natural hair community, which I’m part of. I bought this about six months ago. There’s good and bad sides, but I think it’s worth the try.
The Pros:
If you’re natural and have kinky curls like I do, …

The Pink Armor Nail Gel is the perfect solution to strengthen brittle nails. I’ve always had weak, brittle nails that break for nothing and layers would chip off. I used to be so envious of the ladies that could grow out their own nails.

I used to resort to artificial nails …

I’ve been using this product for a while now. About 5 years to be kind of exact. I really like this product because it’s easy to use and it lasts for so long.
I do my own nails at home and really can’t be satisfied with the end results until …

I am on my late 20s already, and I recall having breakouts during my teenage years. The worst part of it was having a very sensitive skin. Did I mention very? I remember my friends putting on loose powder, and I was there watching them freshen up during our …

I believe, that every woman has a problem when it comes to choosing a right mascara. The problem concerns not only its specific characteristics, but also brand and price. I have tried uncountable quantity of mascaras with different formulas, starting from mass-market ones, such as Avon and ending with the …

As a teen, at eighteen years old it is completely natural to find that you have either dry skin, oily skin or a combination. However, it is not okay to go on living and not try to day anything about that. Due to me having oily skin it is …

I’ve tried Sally Hansen wax strips before when there weren’t hair removal creams by Sally Hansen available at the mall but it was too painful so I went to check the alternative products which I think was more convenient than going to the city just to buy Sally Hansen hair …

Waterproof mascara has been around for years, although it seemed that I could never really find a brand that kept their promise of being waterproof. Either the mascara would just wear off over time, or it would slowly disappear if I wore it on a hot day. I always …

For several years, I had been acutely aware of hairfall at the end of every bath time and I did notice that my hair wasn’t as thick like back in high school. Also, having a stressful work didn’t help either so I went searching for shampoos and conditioners that …

My acne was a late bloomer. I am in my late 20’s now, but back when I was a teenager, I pretty much had zit-free skin. Yes, I had the normal big pores, oily skin combo, but my skin was pretty smooth-ish then. Until I took the plunge when …

I recently started using the NYX mineral stick foundation in color 02 porcelain. I bought this product because I was looking for a foundation that can be applied easily and quickly early in the morning since I usually apply my make up around 5 AM. I’ve always been happy …

More than a year ago I moved from another city and my hair changed a lot. In the new city that I’m in the weather is horrible, it’s super humid and hot, not the best combination for hair, especially one that is kinda curly and frizzy like mine, I’m …

As someone who has fast-growing facial hair, I have to say, I’m always looking for a better shave any way I can get it. I wish I were more like my old man (who takes a week just to grow peach fuzz) but that’s not an option for me, …

I’ve gone through a lot of concealers throughout my life, especially for under eye circles. I’m a night owl so I go to sleep really late and when I wake up the next morning my eyes look horrible, super dark, of course I can’t go out like that so …

Before I get deep into the “meat” of this thing, let me just say first and foremost, I am a man, 100% proudly masculine, totally secure. You want to know how secure in my manliness I am? (Yeah, I know not really, but it’s rhetorical, roll with it.) I’m …

Well, it’s shower time again! I admit from the start here that I have a “schizophrenic” relationship with shampoos, lotions, and body washes. It’s not only because I have fickle body chemistry that changes on a dime, but also because my current favorite body washing/skin lotion products are not …

Please tell me that I’m not the only one who refuses to grow a “Playoff Beard.” What? You’ve never heard of “No Shave November?” (Well that ironic little bad joke I was going to make goes completely out the window) moving on. For those of us who actually need …

I stumbled across this product on a shopping trip and was immediately drawn to the clean, attractive packaging. The whole range comes in white tubes, bottles and tubs. It was cheap to buy, but it looked expensive. I like tasteful packaging; I think it just draws the eye.
This cream …

I always follow up conditioning my hair after shampooing. The hair would be healthier (less split ends) and stronger if it doesn’t resist when combing. I’ve tried a lot of conditioners in the market and I can say that Human Heart Nature Natural Conditioner (Moisturizing) in Mandarin Fresh lives …

I hadn’t found my holy grail shampoo and conditioner so I’m trying a couple of products for my hair. I came across a Human Heart Nature seller and I saw trial size bottles of their shampoo and conditioner.
I’ll be first reviewing the Human Heart Nature Natural Shampoo (Moisturizing) in …

I’ve used a Human Heart Nature product many years ago. I wasn’t fortunate about it because I developed pimples after using it for days (it was a facial wash). But this year I gave Human Heart Nature products another shot.
I’ve bought the Human Heart Nature Tinted Lip Balm. It …

In March, I purchased the MAC Pro Longwear Lipglass in the shade Infinitely Likable, as well as the MAC Pro Longwear Lipcreme in the shade Overtime, with the intention of pairing the two on my wedding day. For me, it was love at first sight. As much as I …

Prior to purchasing the MAC Pro Longwear Lipcreme in the shade Overtime back in March, I had somewhat limited but very successful experience with lip products from MAC Cosmetics. In fact, my experiences with MAC lip products had been so positive that it was the only brand I considered …

Back in August, I purchased the Himalaya Herbals Almond & Cucumber Peel-Off Mask from a drugstore in Zagreb, Croatia. Now, I must admit that I’ve never been a huge fan of peel-off face masks but my husband and I were less than halfway through our five week trip and …

Before discovering this antiseptic skin cleanser I was hopeless about my then uncomfortable situation whenever I sweat and work throughout the day. My work is not that tedious but living in a country with a tropical climate can be taxing to my sweat glands. I thought Betadine antiseptic skin …

I was looking for an all-in-one lipstick from E.L.F and found this product since I just wanted to lessen the contents of my purse because I usually had to bring my lip gloss along with my usual lipstick.

Using the product was different all right because when I would use …

To be very frank, I do not like wearing makeup very much, as I have dry skin problem. I have used liquid foundation and compact foundation before but never try stick foundation. The problem I use to face with liquid foundation is to blend it properly and to match …

When my go-to ‘MakeUp Forever’ blush brush broke last winter, I was devastated and while I had a couple of other blush brushes to use, they just weren’t the same. Before I could purchase another blush brush by ‘MakeUp Forever’, I found myself getting ready to place an order …

Last Spring, I purchased the e.l.f Studio Powder Brush from e.l.f Cosmetics after it was recommended to me by a trusted friend. Immediately, I fell in love and this became one of my most-reached-for makeup brushes. Unfortunately, all-too-soon, I found myself tossing the brush into the garbage. Within an …

When I walked into Sephora looking for a wedding-day foundation, I was quick to stress that as important as it was to get a good quality product that would not let me down on the most important day of my life but also something that was suitable to use …

Mac vivaglam matte lipstick became one of my favorite lipstick now. When the first time I’ve heard about it I’m not so sure if it would really sticks 24hrs on lips until I’ve tried it with myself and I’m loving the result. It’s undeniably fresh, soft and comfortable to use. …

How is it that I only recently discovered the Olive Body Scrub from The Body Shop? At the time, I thought it must have been a new product but apparently it’s been around for a while. Does this mean I have been walking past in the stores and skimming …

When it comes to eos lip balms, I am a devoted fan and daily user. Most recently, I was introduced to the brand’s ‘new’ Visibly Soft formula in all three varieties - Coconut Milk, Blackberry Nectar and Vanilla Mint. As always, eos did not disappoint but I have to …

Back in May, I purchased Benefit Cosmetics’ ‘Primping With The Stars: All Time Greatest “Fake-Its” Kit’ from Sephora. One of the products included in this kit was the Girl Meets Pearl (Liquid Pearl for Face). Now, there are a few exceptions but for the most part, I’m not really …

With the weather getting colder, I decided to treat my lips to the LUSH Cosmetics Bubblegum Lip Scrub.
Now, personally I find it hard to justify the $9.95CDN price tag. It’s not that this lip scrub isn’t effective but at the end of the day, it’s 25g of flavored …

Have you ever read negative reviews about a product but purchased it anyway? That’s exactly what I did with the Revlon PhotoReady Translucent Finisher. Now, you might be wondering, ‘What were you thinking?’ Well, I’m not entirely sure. For some reason, I’m assuming my positive experience using Revlon, including …

While shopping for my wedding with my mother, grandmother and maid of honor back in May, I purchased the Sephora Collection Colorful Blush in the shade 02-So Shy. I had to - from the moment I swatched it on the back of my hand, I was in love. After …

When it comes to talking about the Mango Shower Gel from The Body Shop, there is only one place to start… the scent. Have you ever smelled this?
I find that a lot of mango-scented body products (shower gels and bubble baths, moisturizers, body scrubs, body sprays, etc…) can …

If you hold the opinion that the Suave brand is a low-quality shampoo and conditioner, and one that you’d only buy when you’re broke, think again. At least when it comes to Suave Professional products (although these are still reasonably priced). I was surprised at the quality of these. They …

I have never experienced hair fall problem before. I have no dandruff problem neither I am under any medicine, but still suddenly started losing hair so rapidly. I have long straight hair and I wanted to maintain the length, but seeing too much hair on brush after each combing …

Looking around my bathroom, it may not be immediately obvious that I love homemade and natural beauty and skincare products. In addition to enjoying DIY projects, I like knowing exactly what I am putting on my skin.
While I don’t feel that I really struggle with blackheads, I do get them …

I bought Maybelline Baby Lips in Smoothing Cherry two months ago and I still have it and have been using it up to now. It is quite a money-saving. It is available in all popular malls at a beauty section at a price of more or less 100 pesos. …

When I walked into Sephora back in May to buy a luminizer, I had one brand, and one brand only, on my mind and that was Hour Glass. But you know what it’s like in Sephora, it’s easy to get distracted and that’s exactly what happened - I was …

I purchased the MAC Pro Longwear Eyeliner in the shade ‘Rich Experience’ back in March 2015 with one thing in mind - my wedding in July. Ultimately, I decided on this eyeliner, after several hours of researching my options, because of the brand’s reputation and what this specific eyeliner …

I really thought the San San mascaras are not that very good because I bought one San San mascara before and it did not live up to my expectation. It melted off from my lashes, which was a big disappointment.
But just recently, I went to HBC Home of …

Last month, I ordered Avon U40 Ultra Luxury Eye Liner in Dark Brown from my aunt, who is an Avon lady. I actually selected ‘black’ at first because I am Asian and I have black hair and eyes. But my aunt gave me Avon U40 in dark brown and …

The texture of the Maybelline Dream Matte Mouse foundation makeup isn’t quite what I was hoping for. It’s soft and in between solid, power and liquid. I’m use to another brand of Maybelline foundation and wanted to try this one to see if it would be a worthy switch. …

Prior to purchasing the e.l.f Studio Contouring Brush from e.l.f Cosmetics last spring, I had never owned a contouring brush. In fact, a few hours before I ordered this brush, I had never so much as wanted to own a contouring brush. Just by chance, a friend of mine …

I have a new love and it is the San San HD High Definition Lipstick from HBC Home of Beauty Exclusives and it just costs around 100 pesos. I actually did not pick it myself but the sales lady recommended it to me since I was looking for a …
