It seems like nowadays, it has become difficult for me to fine eye shadows that don’t have a shimmer to them. I go for more of the natural look, and shimmer all over my eyes, for everyday use, just doesn’t work.
I was happy when I found this product, because …

Even though I hate how long it takes to apply full body lotion, I love how I feel afterwards. My skin always feel really soft and smooth, and I always smell really nice. Body Shop’s Coconut Body Butter is like a really great body lotion but five times better. …

Sometimes we develop zits at our back and it is the most frustrating of all. I really thought that it is because of the dirt and bacteria in the swimming pool I used to swim when I was still doing swimming lessons. I was trying to get an alternative …

I like when people take care about themselves. I have a perfect example of my mother who is a very well cared-for only because of her habit to use all facilities and remedies to take care of her face and body. In spite of that she is a busy …

During last holiday season, I was regularly busy attending parties and occasional social events. I had to joggle between make up changes that I probably overdosed my self with a ton of cosmetics. As an aftermath, my poor skin developed a minor case of pimples, I got …

Never before had I decided to use shea butter in my hair until I went natural. It was essential for me to use hair products that would protect my hair rather than weigh my hair down with harsh and damaging chemicals. I knew that going natural meant that I …

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 …

I have naturally dark blonde hair but have been dying it a much lighter shade for two years now.
I should point out that my hair is quite healthy and slightly wavy (naturally), so it’s never particularly dull-looking.
However, sometimes —“ usually when I am depressed - I just feel the need …

One of my latest favorite foundations when it comes to beauty enhancement is a product from L’Oreal because it gives an impressive result to my face. More often, especially in the morning where I am in a hurry for work, I preferred a dry foundation rather than a wet …

This Shower gel was more of a limited edition one and to be honest it didn’t last all that long in the main book. It has been out in the Sale books quite a lot so either they have lots of this stock to shift, or it’s a kind …

I think ponds cold cream doesn’t need any introduction. Everybody has heard about this cream because it’s around from long time. When I was kid I saw my mom using it and now I am using it. It comes in little plastic
Ponds cold cream walks clumsily on skin …

This stuff sucks! The end! No guys, I’m serious… if you’re looking for an amazing lotion that has the consistency to moisturize and leave your skin feeling refreshed, (especially in these cold winter months) you’re not going to find it. I was expecting something of a manila to vanilla …
