Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream
This is a BB Cream made in Korea, which is so famous of a wide range of BB cream and cosmetic product. I got this product on eBay at $22 for a 60g tube, which I found reasonable. The package looks cheap to me for I have tried The …
Mineral Face FX - Veil (T)
I am relatively new to the whole mineral makeup scene. I know when it started to take off a couple of friends asked me what I thought about mineral makeup and I just wasn’t interested. What held me back from trying mineral makeup were three things:
1. It was more …
Oxy Maximum Face Wash
This is an ok face wash , but not one that I would use daily. It works great at first and will deep clean your skin and help with acne. There are some things that I don’t like about it though. This is one product that you will have …
A’pieu Pure Block Natural Sun Cream
Since I am conscious of the sun I tried a lot of sunscreens many more times than I can remember. In fact, I’d just grab whatever sunscreen I see in the market, and what’s so disappointing is they’re all the same. They’re really all the same because of texture (they’re …
Samy Zero Calorie Thickening Promade
Lately I have been straightening my thick and naturally curly hair. Unfortunately, my hair tends to become bigger and frizzier as my day progresses, leaving me looking like the cowardly lion from the Wizard of Oz. Therefore, I have been looking for a product that will help …
Wet n Wild Ultimate Brow Kit
I’ve been wearing my hairstyle with bangs lately, so most of my eyebrows have been covered ie: hiding from the world! I haven’t gotten them threaded or waxed in weeks, about to be a month but I’ve been trying to grow them out more so they can take a …
Neutrogena Pore Refining Mask
Last year I used to suffer from big pores because I slept late, and as a result I experienced having a lot of small blackheads on the nose which I tried to cure using a pore tape from a local store but it did not work. So I decided …
Avon Naturals Violet and Lychee Shower Gel
This is another product I have tried in the newest range from Avon Naturals Collection. The scent is available in a Room Spray and a Body Lotion, which I have bought all 3 of them. This is due to them being new, as I like to try new product, …
ELF Studio Corrective Concealer
ELF makeup is so inexpensive that I couldn’t stop buying them! I ended up with a huge haul and my favorite out of it is definitely the ELF Studio Corrective Concealer. I paid only $3 for this bad boy and it is definitely worth it. It comes with four …
Clix Axe deodorant body spray
I am a big fan of Axe deodorant body spray but one of my most favorite scent by Axe would have to be Clix! The thing I like about the scent Clix is that it is not a weak smell but it is also not a super strong kind …
Makemania Brand Chip Gradation Liner (Brown shade)
I really wasn’t planning on buying anything but then you know how it is when going through Sasa! I was able to discover this Japanese makeup brand Makemania and its great product, the Chip Gradation Liner in Brown! I think I may have bought it for around HK$80. It …
Olay Total Effects Night Cream
I am already in my 30s so I am constantly looking for ways to improve my aging skin. I have small eye wrinkles already and I plan to, if not stop them, to minimize the creation of fine lines. I am currently using the Olay Total Effects day cream …
Josie Maran Argan Oil
$48 for a 1.7oz bottle of oil sounds ridiculously expensive, and until a couple of months ago I would have agreed completely - that is until I discovered Argan Oil by Josie Maran, and realised that this stuff is so wonderful that I’d happily pay double the price! Â It’s …
Sephora Mini Heated Eyelash Curler
When I was younger, I spent a lot of time watching my mom and my older female relatives putting on makeup, and was always appalled at some of the more painful procedures such as eyebrow plucking and eyelash curling. Obviously, makeup and cosmetics have improved over the years, but …
Donna Karan Cashmere Mist Deodorant
I tried out this product recently because I was having trouble finding a deodorant that would work well on my sensitive skin while still providing me odour control and dryness. Donna Karan Cashmere Mist Deodorant is a bit pricey. It runs in the range of $20 per deodorant. This …
Zia Natural Skincare Ultimate Body Firming Treatment
One of my favorite firming body treatment products to use is Zia Natural Skincare Ultimate Body Firming Treatment. It has helped minimize the appearance of my cellulite and has helped firm my buttock right up as well as my chest area. However, it isn’t a moisturizer so it …
Loreal Elseve Anti-Frizz Shampoo and Conditioner
My dry frizzy hair bothers me a lot especially when humidity is high because it won’t stay in place and I would sometimes look like a poodle (I have thick long wavy hair). At times, especially in the summer, I had to cut my hair very short and dab …
Bigen Speedy Hair Color Conditioner Brownish Black
My mother used to do her hair coloring in the salon. Due to the recession, we asked her to cut back on unnecessary expenses, and this included hair coloring service at the salon.
I went to the supermarket to get the hair coloring product so that she could do …
Cetaphil Extra Gentle Cleansing Bar
I have very sensitive skin that is oily and acne-prone. I am also 45, so I am concerned with aging skin issues. I live in the South, so summers are hot and humid, making my summer face cleansing a challenge. In the winter, it gets cold …
Lush Brazilian 100g Sandstone Bath Soap
I recognize the importance of exfoliating the skin so when I take a shower, I make sure that I shed off the dead skin whenever possible. Of course, I do not do it every day. Since my skin is sensitive, exfoliating it every few days is the …
Palmolive Naturals Shampoo with Coconut Cream
I am picky with my shampoo, because I have dry hair and I dye it once every 2 months. I need a shampoo with moisturizers that will not make my hair oily and greasy. That’s why I bought the Palmolive Naturals Shampoo Intensive Moisture with Milk and Coconut Oil. …
Nivea Fruity Shine Cherry Lip Gloss
I have been using the Nivea Fruity Shine Cherry Lip Gloss for about 3 months now, I bought it as an alternative to chap stick. I am so tired of the same old chap stick, and need something to keep my lips moisturized. I decided on the …
Paul Younane Neckline Slimmer
I’m not exactly overly concerned with wrinkles and the such. I’ve spent my whole life with excessively oily skin on my face and, though it’s been a problem as far as blemishes are concerned, it’s actually kept the wrinkles an absolute minimum, and even in my late thirties, I’m …
Comb-A-Color Quick Haircolor Applicator
I did a bad thing. I colored my hair three times in a single month and totally destroyed it. BUT, in the process I found a great product that I would highly recommend to anyone who likes to color their hair themselves and save some money verses going to …
Sainsbury’s Freshmint Toothpaste
Sainsbury’s Freshmint Toothpaste is the brand that I use most often, and I would definitely say that it worked pretty well on the whole. It is (obviously, I suppose) the own brand of the Sainsbury’s supermarket chain, and so will be easier to find in the United Kingdom than …
Aussie Dual Personality Anti Frizz Cream
I was very excited to try this product. I was intrigued by the idea that not only is it designed to be an anti frizz cream, but it also works as a leave in conditioner. I envisioned in my mind that this product would help to define …
Neutrogena Sunless Tanning Foam
I have tried many at-home sunless tanning products. One of the ones I picked up rescently was Neutrogena Sunless Tanning Foam. I chose this product because Neutrogena is a good company that generally produces items that I like.
This tanning foam comes in a yellow bottle with a …
Healthy Foot Deodorant Cream by Avon
I’ve been using Avon products for as long as I can remember now and one of my beauty staples I regularly purchase from them is their foot care range. Called simply Foot Works, the range offers everything for perfect pedicure pampering and whenever a new product is …
Llongueras Color Advance hair dye
I dye my hair at home sometimes, but I don’t always use the same hair colouring product. I will just go to the drugstore, look for some product with the colour that I want, and then just buy it. One of the hair dye products that I have tried …
SkinMilk Moisturizing Facial Wash
Whenever I wash my face, I have to do it with care. I have very sensitive skin that will dry out easily. I hate when my face dries out because it becomes hard to moisturize and irritation occurs. I often have to find mild face wash or moisturizing face …
Carmex Lip Balm
Every girl has that one makeup product that they’ve had in the bottom of their makeup bag for ages. For me, that product is Carmex lip balm. You probably see it in the checkout aisle of drug stores and grocery stores all the time in that familiar bright yellow …
Sunsilk Damage Therapy Reconstruction Nourishing Conditioner
I’ve become a fan of Sunsilk’s affordable hair care products because I’ve loved everything from them I’ve tried so far. When Sunsilk introduced Damaged Hair - reconstruction conditioner, I couldn’t resist. I have dry, damaged hair - generally thanks to my hair dryer and chemical processes (like my ceramic perm …
Clinique anti wrinkle cream
Age is one thing which increases every second and the changes it brings are inevitable. The main problem ladies think of with aging is ofcourse wrinkles and creases on face. Though they can’t be stopped from coming the best thing one can do is to delay them from coming. …
Synaa Henna Powder
I started using Henna on my hair and scalp on a regular basis ever since I started noticing premature gray hairs when I was in my early twenties.
Although I did start with using chemical dyes for about a couple of times I quickly switched to 100% pure and natural …
Sun Flower Beauty Oil by Human Nature
Have you heard of a product that has more than 20 benefits? I did. I was skeptical at first when I’ve heard about the Sunflower Beauty Oil by Human Nature, it was said to create miracles, and they even call it miracle in bottle. I got curious about it; …
Chanel Lipgloss in Chelsea
I own a lot of lip products and adore lipgloss from the ‘high end’ of the market, this Chanel lipgloss being my current favourite and one I’m glad I risked the $29 on. Â The range of shades is limited, but the salmon/pink tones of each different shade means there’s …
Avent Products
I’ve been using Avent products for a year now and keep on using it for my 1 year old baby.
For me, it is a wise move that I chosen it over other brands.
Here are some of the advantages I’ve experienced from 1 year of using Avent products:
1. Anti-colic. Avent …

Dermalogica Clean Start Bedtime for Breakouts - Acne Treatment
The Dermalogica Clean Start Bedtime for Breakouts is an Acne Treatment of sorts that claims to be a super stealth treatment that absorbs quickly, delivering a potent blend of botanicals to wipe out future breakouts lurking below the surface and contains no artificial fragrance or color.
I got this with …
NYC Kiss Gloss Shiny Lips in City Sorbet
A lovely lip gloss I just started using that only cost me a couple of dollars that I now love is the NYC Kiss Gloss Shiny Lips in the flavor of City Sorbet. I love this lip gloss because it has a rosy pink shade to it that matches …
Tesco Cornflower and Silk Handwash
This is a real bargain basement liquid handwash from Tesco’s own brand and the large 500ml bottle was only 48p. This comes in a pretty basic looking economy bottle with a spout which you initially lift and twist and then press when you want to dispense it. …
Impulse Temptation Body Spray
Impulse is the main Body Spray that I use. Yes it is perhaps that bit more expensive than other Body Sprays, but often you don’t have to pay full price for this range if you buy this from Sainsbury’s or Asda. These comes in 75ml tins and the right …
Clean and clear advantage facial wash
So I’m still trying to figure out what to do with my face and really I still haven’t figured that part out yet. I’m shopping around and trying to buy the best product for me. SO what I decided to do was just try all of them until I …
Curel Ultra Healing Lotion for Extra Dry Skin
If you have a severe issue with dry skin,of any race,Curel Ultra Healing Lotion for Extra Dry Skin is a must have. It’s not one of the popular brands that is on every commercial or it’s not even available in all stores. It’s available in Walmart,Kroger,or your local drug …
Philips Satinelle HP6400 Epilator
Philips benefited from the simple fact that theirs were the only epilators sold in my location. I was particularly stingy at spending money for another epilator, so I bought the cheapest Philips epilator. Philips’ approach at selling these gadgets trickles down from a comprehensive set of several …
Petites Color Fever Nail polish in Vintage Gray
I am in love with this nail polish color! I picked it up when I was looking for some neutrals, and this very affordable brand is one of my new favorites for nail polishes.
I found these polishes at Rite Aid when I was picking out stuff I could take …

I was having severe hair fall from past several months. My hairs are very dry and so it was difficult combing them after washing. They get tangled and are frizzy and so they break easily. I was very upset and searching for the product which can reduce my hair …
Maybelline Blush Studio Mousse
I bought a Maybelline Blush Studio Mousse No.01 about 6 months ago. The color is pink marshmallow, very light and sweet, I think. This blush is about $6.50, worthed I guess.Not so pricey. It has shiny effect and it’s a little bit tricky to apply. I use my hand …
Fragranced hair oil
I am one of the users of Parachute jasmine coconut hair oil. It is good. They say that this oil is non-sticky. I am comfortable with this oil as I observed some shining like thing on my dry and thick hair after applying it. The thing that attracted …
