I’ve tried a lot of peeling exfoliants and always ended up with over dry blotchy skin, but not with this product. It’s gentle for sensitive skin like mine and it doesn’t cause any irritation. From all the products that I’ve used, this is one of the few that I …

I have some good cleansers but I really wanted to try the Olay Total Effects make up remover as my other cleansers are not especially for ageing skin. Also, I have had some fantastic results with the Olay Total Effects Night Cream. Just as with the Night …

I puchased the “Creme to Powder Foundation” made by N.Y.C. recently and I like it a lot. It is such a small price to pay for a wonderful product. I used to buy expensive brands of makeup because I figured that if it’s that expensive, it must be good. …

In my purse, I do have some basic …

This mascara isn’t as expensive as other eyelash mascaras, so I decided to give it a try.
It has a special brush that doesn’t leave lumps in your eyelashes. I found that great, as I can’t stand seeing a simgle lump on them. Also, you don’t really need to apply …

When it comes to eyeliner, I have not been a fan of using it because it always came in the form of a pencil. I’m a scary person by nature when it comes to anything coming near my face, especially my eyes, and the thought of using a pencil …

It is said that life for a woman begins at 30, whoever said this had no idea what it is like to be a woman. Yes indeed a woman becomes more mature, on average, at the age of thirty but this is quite misleading as I found out to …

The MAC Fix+ is a skin refreshing spray that retails for $18 at MAC freestanding stores and counters. It contains 100 ML or 3.4 oz. I’m not really sure this is worth $18 because that is really expensive for something that is pretty much just water in a spray …
