Neutrogena Healthy Skin Rejuvenator Kit

Neutrogena Body Clear Body Scrub

Yves Rocher Provençal Lavandin Shower Gel
Before I start I must say that although lavender is a bit of a ‘love it or hate it’ fragrance for most people, I’m not too fussed either way with it. So when I received two bottles of Yves Rocher Provençal Lavandin shower gel as a Christmas present I …

Bare Escentuals
Bare Escentuals is the best mineral foundation that I have found. I have tried other mineral foundations from makeup lines found in Wal-greens. I was not impressed. They all seemed to leave my skin chalky, pallid looking. I have seen the TV commercial and the advertising of BE. I …

Dial Clean & Refresh Antibacterial Body Wash Mountain Fresh

Sonia Kashuk Beautifying Blush

Bonne Bell Bubble Gum Lip Smacker Lip Gloss
Bonne Bell Bubble Gum Lip Smacker Lip Gloss is more like a chapstick I think instead of a lip gloss. I think it moisturizes lips and protect lips slightly, but also makes my lips shiny like a lip gloss would. It comes in the same chapstick tube as a …
Lotta Luv Peeps Scented Cotton Candy Marshmallow Cream Lip Balm
I have to admit, I was pretty excited to find this Lotta Luv lip balm amidst a random selection of cosmetics at my local Dollar Tree Store, but I kept it to myself. People who’ve never come across this brand of lip balm don’t know what they’re missing. This …
