Olay Total Effects facial wash
In my case, the aggressive advertising strategy of Olay Total Effects was effective in convincing me to ditch my old whitening cream and switch to this product. However, I am quite disappointed because it was not able to deliver its promise to providing that beautiful skin and delaying signs …
Ever Bilena Liquid Eyeliner in Black
I do not really care if the product is cheap or expensive, but when I go for cheap makeup shopping I always hang out by the Ever Bilena Section in the department store. One of my favorite picks is the Ever Bilena Liquid Eyeliner in Black. This comes as …
Herban Essential Aromatherapy Towlettes
Herban Essentials Towlettes are one of the coolest new products I have found and I don’t know how I could have gone so long without them. Everyone knows how handy towlettes are, and these have twice the effect or an ordinary one. The aromatherapy benefit of these …

Johnson’s Milk Bath
No matter how far vanity takes me, I will always look back to my roots. I herald Johson’s milk products as undisputed bathroom classics for everyone and myself especially. Although it seems rudimentary to wash myself with milk now, when I still haven’t gotten the hang off …
Bioderma Atoderm PO Zinc Cream
I suffer with dry skin and dark patches due to pigmentation caused by UV exposure. A few years ago my dermatologist prescribed Bioderma Atoderm PO Zinc cream to use as a moisturizer and to repair my damaged and dry skin. A lot of people swear by their Bioderma skin …

The Product
Number 101 shade is a matte light brown shade that appears peachy on my lips.
The container is a test tube-like plastic casing with a chrome-colored cap where the doe-foot applicator is attached.
This has a sweet watermelon scent but I did not detect any sweet taste from this.
This has …
Skintimate Skin Therapy Shave Gel for Women
I have a few problems with dry skin, and shaving my legs usually leaves them feeling icky afterwards. I bought this Skintimate product because other gels, especially anything scented, left my skin very dry and unflattering. Skin Therapy is very lightly scented. Even the can looks invitingly gentle. I …

Manic Panic Guide
Unfortunately, I hear all too often that Manic Panic is a terrible product and should not be used. Mention it in most salons and the stylist will shudder. I’ve also seen first-hand people walking around with obvious Manic Panic blunders.
The good news is that this product is far from …
Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF15
Before I tried several mild creams and lotions for facial care, I have been a long time user of Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture with SPF15. I love this facial moisturizer very much. I am willing to spend budget for this 4-ounce pump bottle. This is absolutely mild as its product …

Maybelline’s Lash Stiletto Ultimate Length Washable Mascara
Okay, I don’t know if there’s some kind of trick to using this stuff, but even if there is, I don’t believe that applying mascara should require extensive know-how. This stuff was terribly lumpy, and the brush was an awkward length and
shape. It caused my lashes to …
Perricone MD Intensive Pore Minimizer
Anyone that knows me knows that I use Nicholas Perricone as part of my skin care regimen and I usually love what this company sells. But, every once in a while, I run across a product that I don’t like and I don’t think is worth the money. …

Jason Natural Cosmetic Fragrance Free Daily Conditioner for All Hair Types

Cover Girl Advanced Radiance Foundation
I recently purchased the Cover Girl Advanced Radiance Foundation from my local Walgreen’s drugstore. This particular foundation is one of the cream-to-powder foundations that you often see in the makeup aisle. I was initially confused by the description because it just seemed like a liquid foundation to me. However, …
Body Natur Cera Chlorophyll Depilation Wax
I bought this Body Natur Cera Chlorophyll Depilation Wax at the price of $8 from my favorite beauty shop. I actually read the advertised ‘good effects’ of it on the skin in a beauty magazine.

T3 Control Chic Hairdryer Styling Set
The T3 Control Chic Hairdryer Styling Set is not a cheap purchase. I spend a lot of time styling my hair. Between blow drying, straightening, curling, deep conditioning, and all of the other processes I go through to get my hair to look good, I invest a lot of …
Plumeria Body Splash by Bath and Body Works
I have been using Plumeria Body Splash for a couple of months, and have mixed reviews about Plumeria Body Splash by Bath and Body Works.

L’Oreal H.I.P Cream Shadow Paint
At first when I saw these I wasn’t that interested in trying these cream paint eye shadows, even though I had really great results from L’Oreal’s H.I.P line. It’s just that I didn’t really like cream eye shadows, they always seem to crease and fade very poorly and these …
Neutrogena Wet Skin SPF 50 Sunblock Spray
The convenience of a spray on sunscreen has always seemed very alluring to me, so I have finally purchased the Neutrogena Wet Skin SPF 50 Sunblock Spray in my local Walgreen’s. Like all Neutrogena products I have tried in the past, it is very gentle on my finicky, break-out …
Equate Dental Whitening Strips
Equate Dental Whitening Strips did not seem to deliver results that I could be happy with and boast about. Much like the Crest Whitening Strips that I tried, these too seem to fail to bring out an improved whiteness in my teeth. They do not seem to do much …
Maybelline Superstay Lip Color
I have tried both the Maybelline Superstay Lip Color and the Covergirl version and they are both pretty good. It claims to offer 16 hours of liquid color, unaffected by eating or drinking. Well, that may not be quite true, but it still does stay on pretty …

L’Oreal Telescopic Precision Liquid Eyeliner

Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Foot Cream for Dry Rough Feet
