Bath & Body Works Classics Lemongrass Sage Body Splash

Bath and Body Works’ Dancing Waters Body Mist
Along with the other body mist from Bath and Body Works, I bought Dancing Waters body mist as well. It was in the back section, and a little hard to find, but that was only because it was really cheap, and there was their yearly sale going on, so …
Mac All That Glitters Eyeshadow

Liushen Fresh & Fair Shower Cream - Herbal Whitening Essence
I found the Luishen Fresh & Fair Shower Cream at the Watsons drugstore a few months back. Usually I find a ton of Korean and Japanese brands in the store but I had never seen anything from this brand called Luishen which is a Chinese brand.

Marcelle Tonifying Lotion for Combination Skin
It is very important to use a toner for women who use make up. Using face soap is not enough. The soap only removes the dirt that stays on the surface and the toner helps to remove the dirt and the makeup that gets deeper in the pores. If …
NARS Blush and Bronzing Duo
I always love how thoughtful NARS artistry teams are. They always packed my favorite item from the brand together. Blush and bronzers from NARS are my favorite must have. When I saw them together I can only sing praises for the team. Not only it is a time saver …

MAC Eyeshadow in Woodwinked
I love my MAC eyeshadow in woodwinked! It is the perfect eyeshadow for an everyday look, and when I don’t know what eyeshadow to use, I just grab woodwinked for a nice, pretty neutral brown color. This color is perfect to use whenever for a natural eyeshadow look, or …
NYX Eyeshadow 10 Color Palette in Champagne and Caviar
Collecting eye shadow palettes is somewhat risky for a beauty junkie’s tight budget, as there’s practically no guarantee that the shades will pay off in terms of quality (as much as the beauty of the colors on the palette). I stick to a very limiting 4 or less …
Bonne Bell gel bronzer
I have tried this because it is cheap, so cute, and very popular but I don’t like this one. It is another bronzer that is absolutely not flattering on my complexion in any way so I’m a little bit disapointed about it. I don’t know why but the color …

Dove Frizz Control Therapy
I am happy to have discovered this product. I have a somewhat curly hair which is quite rebellious, very unmanageable and very prone to frizz. It is alright when it is still wet just after shower, but the moment it gets dry, it goes in every direction and frizzes …

The Product

Herbench Prettywhenpinched

Therefore, I just put on lipstick and …
Urban Decay Big Fatty Lip Plumper
Who wouldn’t want Angelina Jolie’s lips? Almost every girl’s desire is to look as good as her so we kind of spend some cash just to get the look. I hate to admit it but I wasted money because I wanted to get fuller lips just like hers.
I bought …
DuWop Revolotion Face
For those of you who aren’t familiar with DuWop, their Revolotion Face is a tinted moisturizer with SPF protection and light-diffusing pigments. The only other product that I’ve used that is similar to this is the Olay Definity Color Recapture, which I love and use almost every day. …
Rimmel Gloss Maxx lipstick
Rimmel is my favourite drug store brand as it produces quality products at really affordable prices. In fact the Gloss Maxx lipstick I purchased is better than some of the counter / high end brands I’ve tried.
Packaging : 3/5
Packaging is a rather unimaginative cylindrical black container. Rimmel is embossed in …
Japonesque Powder Brush

Shu Uemura False Eye Lash Applicator
Installing false eye lashes used to be easy peasy as long as I have someone who will do it for me. Doing the act is a whole different story. I realized how hard it is to execute DIY falsies. The problem is my tendency to get …
Noxzema Clarifying Toner
I have what they call ‘problem’ skin, which means that even though I’m 30′ish I am still prone to acne breakouts. I have tried many products, expensive and otherwise over the years, and have to tell you as toners go, this Noxzema is great value!
Noxzema Continuous Clean Clarifying Toner …
Dove deodorant
I have tried so many brands and types of deodorant but I still always experience sweating in the armpits. I always get embarrassed when it gets wet. It’s so hard especially when it gets hot. I get nervous that my armpits will perspire again. I get shy whenever I …
Beauty Bar Tint Lipstick

Inoco Express Nail Strips in French Manicure
I like doing my nails a lot. I think that clean polished finger nails are very feminine and classy. The downside is that I am not very good at applying typical liquid polish. It was this issue that led me to look at nail color stickers. One brand that …
Mandom Cleansing Express Lotion Sebum
I was looking for a good make-up remover that didn’t cost so much because I wear make-up everyday for work. Since I don’t really put on too much make-up, just face powder, blush and lipgloss, I figured something cheap and non-irritating would do. Having heard about Mandom Cleansing Express …

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser

Maybelline Watershine Pure Lipstick

Tweezerman Deluxe Men’s Grooming Kit
This kit didn’t last me a very long time. The grooming tools either broke on me or bent on me. The tweezers, for example, quickly became bent out of shape. Maybe that wouldn’t have happened if they and the rest of the grooming tools would’ve stayed in the case …
