Sephora by OPI Nail Polish
OPI is my favorite nail polish brand hands down (no pun intended). I will occasionally go for cheap drug store shades with more glitter than and OPI shade that I already love, but for the most part, I am loyal to just one brand of nail polish. OPI recently …
100% Intense Repair Concentrate Cream by Yves Rocher
Being a big fan of beauty items I’ve been trying to curb my spending recently as it was starting to get a little out of control. To pacify myself though I have found that if I buy something cheaper then I’m still technically spending yet saving at the …
Lancome Paris L’Extreme Waterproof Mascara
Unfortunately, I have to say I do not like this product because the consistency is way too thick (which makes it hard to apply without clumping). This mascara smudges and runs under my eyes within the first half hour of application and the application brush does not have …
Bottega Verde Body Lotion Green Tea
When I was younger I never used to use body creams and body lotions because I started to use them few years ago when I became a member of Bottega Verde. Bottega Verde is Italian cosmetic company. I like them very much because all their products are natural …

Pantene Pro-v Shampoo Hair Fall Control

Estee Lauder Duble Wear foundation
You can’t make your makeup look complete unless you use a foundation, as skin has naturally shiny zones, small flaws, and the idea of makeup is to make our face look beautiful.

Eskinol Ice Poretherapy Facial Toner
I always see to it that I cleanse my face before going to sleep. Since my face has visible pores I decided to try Eskinol Ice Poretherapy Facial Toner with Viamin-enriched Formula plus Soft Cooling Beads. For me this is not harsh on my skin because it is dermatologist-tested …
MAC Nail Lacquer in Plasma Blu
Apart from heralding my humble chanel collection, I also have a few other lacquers which I think of as novelty pieces. I’m quite oblivious to everything I own except for some unique items that are worthy of retention. Even if it’s close to expiration I still keep …

Revlon Creme Gloss in Crush on Coral
I don’t usually like the kind of lip glosses that have a brush applicator and you have to twist the bottom of the lip gloss to get the gloss up to the brush. I think it’s kind of annoying because I usually get too little gloss on the brush …
Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Hair Conditioner

Marks and Spencer Royal Jelly and Pure Honey Hand Cream
