Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Foot Creme
I have, for many years, been a fan of Neutrogena products. Though I wouldn’t exactly call them miracle cures for any particular problem, I find that they work for the money you invest in them, and there’s rarely been a product by this company that I haven’t enjoyed on …

Vasline Body Lotion Healthy White
It’s winter in India and although I usually do not use any moisturisers, my friend suggested that I get a good moisturizer, though not an emmolient because I have oily skin and it may cause breakouts. This rules out Shea butter, cocoa butter and vaseline. I needed something light, …
Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar Deep Cleansing Hand Soap
I sorely miss in my bathroom counter the scents of warm vanilla and cookies and cream. I know, it’s a lot right? And what would scents like those be doing in my bathroom counter? I’m not the least bit delusional in imagining food inside the bathroom. …
Avon Foot Works Dual-Action Pedi Peel 22 pads

This simple organic lip balm is one I picked up when I had forgotten to bring a chapstick with me when I was on vacation. It has shea butter, olea oil (whatever that is) beeswax and lanolin. That’s a pretty basic formula that should be hard to screw up!
Amazingly, …

Tesco Value Twin Pack Toothbrush

Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protection Lotion SPF 60
I’ve had pharmacists actually tell me before that there’s not much difference in effectiveness in an SPF 60 product and one with an SPF 100 (and can you believe they actually make that, because I’ve tried it before), but I still see that higher number and think it just …
