I bought this lip gloss from Avon with my last purchase just to buy some. Almost everything that I have ever bought from Avon I have really liked. So I figured I would try this lip gloss because I have trouble finding the right color for my lips. I …
Pond’s White Beauty Pinkish-White Glow Lightening Cream
One of the products that I use recently is Pond’s White Beauty Pinkish-White Glow Lightening Cream. I’d been using this for almost five months now. Although I don’t apply this product every night (I get so sleepy that sometimes, I skip my pre-sleeping beauty routine), it really worked for …
The Body Shop Hemp Face Protector
I have eczema and my skin gets very dry particularly during the winter. I am also allergic to many chemicals and perfumes, which you can find in most cosmetic products. It has been incredibly difficult to find a facial cream that doesn’t cause any allergic reaction. I have tried …
Green Line Clear Active Eye Make-Up Remover
I like to try new products so when this eye make-up remover became available to purchase at a discount for customers with loyalty cards at my local retail store, I thought it worth a trial run. I was also using a lot of eye make-up at the time and …
Make Up For Ever HD Microfinish Blush
I have a slight confession to make. I do not like cream blush. Not at all. Every cream blush I have ever purchased or been given has been thrown away. I find it too heavy, especially when added to the end of a makeup regimen includes liquid foundation and …
Beauticontrol’s Overnight Retinol Recovery Eye Capsules
I have a lot of problems with wrinkles and crows feet in my eye area. A lot of this damage is from the sun and tanning bed, some is from crying (I had a very sad childhood), and some of it is from simply rubbing my eyes the …
Sumptuous Mascara by Estee Lauder
Mascara makers all try to get you to believe that their product will make your lashes long, thick, and luxurious. This product by Estee Lauder is one of those. To prove it to trusting readers, the product makers have placed a rather image of the actual mascara …

Maybelline Lip Smooth
I have practiced being a make up artist at the same time so that while I am doing portrait photography, I can multi-task doing make up and taking the shots as well. I learned how to make up one time when the make up artist I hired could not …
Urban Decay Shadow Primer Potion
I don’t often use eye shadow primers, but I got this Urban Decay one as part of a package I bought. Although I only use it on special occasions, it’s a really great product that extends the life of my eyeshadow.
I have very small eyelid creases, so I’ve always …
Allue Starring Cheek Blush by HBC
Some people are just born with pale-looking skin, and I’m one of those. Having pale skin might be a problem for some but good thing there are lots of blushes out there that are budget-friendly and of good quality, just like Allue Starring Cheek Blush by HBC.
As a student, …
L’Oreal Sublime Bronze Self-TanningTowelettes light
Self-tanning products really freak me out because I’ve had one too many negative experiences with them. I tend to lean more towards using a bronzer, but something that just washes off at the end of the day when you take a shower, and not something that’s potentially permanent because …
L’Oreal Infallible Never Fail Lipstick
As a career oriented woman, I think wearing lipstick is part and parcel of my everyday life. I don’t think I am complete if I will go to work without painting my lips. My lips are not pinkish and I would admit I look better with lipstick. Of course …
Burt’s Bees Peppermint Foot Softening Lotion
I have to wear work boots for over eight hours a day and my feet often feel tired and worn out. And I was walking down the shoe inserts isle at Wal-Mart and saw this product right next to my favorite inserts. I took this as a …
Bottega Verde Hand cream with sweet Almond
When I was little I never like to put the cream on my hands because all the creams were so greasy that my skin didn’t absorbed them very well so I had to stay with my hands in the air for minutes and as I was just a child …
Ponds Clear Solution Facial Cleanser
Before I used (and then learned to love) Neutrogena, I was able to use Ponds Clear Solution Facial Wash as the product to cleanse my face. I wash my face thrice a day; after I woke up, during bath time, and then before I go to bed. Back then, …
Elisees Anti Comedone Cleanser
I had a severed acne problem on my face, i had tried all other facial brands which claims will help me so. BUT, out of all i finally convinced myself and tried this ELISEES ANTI COMEDONE when i was in Thailand.
The first wash with it, it was very unique …
Bourjois 1001 Lashes (1001 Cils) Mascara
I was really attracted to this 1001 Lashes (or 1001 Cils as it is called in French) which claims to reach all your lashes —˜regardless of length or location’. I had noticed that my usual everyday mascara was not easily catching the lashes on the outer corners of …
NARS Sabrina Lip Treatment SPF 20
The way I ended up with this NARS Lip Treatment is actually a funny story. I was at the NARS counter in Bloomingdale’s, and if I recall correctly, Bloomies was giving a gift with a purchase. And it was a fantastic gift: a set of skin care minis — …
Avon’s Night Magic in Evening Musk
Avon’s Night Magic roll on deodorant in “evening musk” is wonderful. It has that nice musk scent that is not overpowering. It is powdery-musk scented and glides onto your skin smoothly with its roller ball applicator. One bad thing is that with more liquid deodorants you …
Almay Intense I-Color Mascara
As much as the numerous Almay products claim to highlight the different eye colors, I haven’t seen much difference between this mascara, which is in —˜Black Emerald’ and other mascaras that I have in regular black and brown shades. This doesn’t mean that the mascara isn’t efficient or pretty, …
Cherry Blossom deep cleansing hand soap
Okay, I admit it. I have become a Cherry Blossom deep cleansing hand soap junkie. It is so easy to use, what is there not to love. Just a quick pump and your hands are not just gloriously clean, but the soft scent of jasmine seems to waft through …
Lancome Bi-Facil Makeup Remover
This product has been the hype for a really long time, so I just had to try it out. I usually find Lancome prices too steep, but it seemed like a good deal, since makeup removers usually last me quite a while, so when I forked over the $24, …
MAC Lipglass in Prrr Lip Gloss
After have great experiences with MAC and a few of their products I was interested in buying more from them. I thought that I would see what kind of lip glosses that they had. When I visited the MAC makeup counter again, the woman that was working there was …
Oriflame Tender Care Protecting Balm

Clinique Chubby Stick Lip Colour Balm in Fuller Fig
I couldn’t ignore this product after seeing it advertised in almost every glossy magazine (Elle and Harper’s Bazaar, etc.), and I felt like I’ve wasted money buying issues filled with redundant print ads. As a sensitive consumer, these adverts don’t always make it to my buying list, but …
The Cosmetics Company Store
I had built up my visit to The Cosmetics Company Store in my mind a lot the last time I visited my favourite outlet mall in Tulalip. I had been unable to ever go into this store before, due to either time constraints or the huge lineup outside the …
Nexxus Therappe Luxurious Moisturing Shampoo
It was many years ago when I tried my first Nexxus product at the hair salon. It came recommended by my hair stylist. One of the main reasons I took to it instantly was that Nexxus was one of the first companies not to test their products …
Double Black Extension Carbon Black Waterproof Mascara by L’Oreal

ANEW ULTIMATE Contouring Eye System
It has seemed, over the years, that I just can’t catch a break. If I’m not dealing with acne in my youth, and occassional blemishes in my adulthood, then it’s also these awful dark circles under my eyes that make me, with my pale skin, look like a vampire, …

Revlon Colorstay Ultimate Liquid Lipstick

Cover Girl Professional All-In-One Mascara
What a waste of money! I recently purchased Cover Girl Professional All-In-One Mascara; this mascara is not the usual brand I use, but I found a great deal where you get two tubes of it for $9.99. I thought this was a steal compared to other brands, so I …
