Bath and Body Works Black Raspberry Vanilla bubble bath

Dove Damage Therapy Shampoo Shine Boost
Dove lotions and soaps are some of my favorite products, and I’ve used a lot of variations of them over the years. I find that, as a lotion, it’s one of the few products I can use that thoroughly hydrates my skin, even during the harsh Michigan winters. So, …

Pantene Medium Thick Hairspray

This soft soap is my husband’s favorite. He brought this to the Philippines one time and I was hooked to it too. Just a small amount of drop on your loofah or cloth and you will start smelling that great fruit fragrant. I like the smell and the beads …
Urban Decay Eye Shadow Primer in Sin
This is an eye shadow (Sin is a light shimmery brown) and a primer all in one. The packaging promises that it’s long lasting and won’t crease. I was a little skeptical of the not creasing part because it’s creamy and my experience with most cream eye shadows tend …
Whitening Listerine Pre-Brush Treatment
Whitening Listerine is quite different from the other Listerine varieties. I thought I would try it out for a change and figured the Whitening part would be a bonus.
I should have read the label first to see what the whitening ingredient was because I don’t think I would …
L’Oreal Endless Lipstick In The Buff
As my reviews have been saying, I am falling in love with L’Oreal. I like everything but their foundation and powder, for which I use either Bare Essentials or Clinique. Everything else though I am very pleased with .
This review is over L’Oreal Endless Lipstick called In The Buff. …
Urban Decay Purple Eye glitter gel
Urban Decay eye glitter gel works great but it is a little bit on the chunky side. I love wering glitter so it is right up my alley, other than the fact that you do waist a lot in the application. It is a small squeeze bottle tube, and …

Burt’s Bees Coconut Foot Creme

Maybelline Color Delights Cream Shadow
This is a cream or cake eye shadow that is packaged in a quite attractive container. It has four colors- blue, purple, pink and white, all with sparkles. I bought it in a drug store after seeing the beautiful store display that featured a model wearing the eye shadow. …

e.l.f. Plumping Lip Glaze
Okay, is it supposed to be a lip plumper or what? I ask that because I’m not too sure about its plumping effects since I haven’t seen any results. Even by applying a lot of product on me trying to see my lips juicier than ever, it never worked. …
Psssssst Unscented Instant Spray Shampoo
My friends actually got this for me as a joke, but it turned out that the joke was on them because I loved it! See, my husband and most of my friends really enjoy camping and, as a group, we go at least five times during the summer and …
Biore Cleansing Oil Cotton Facial Sheets

Lacoste “Love of Pink” perfume
The scent of a perfume is always dependent on the person wearing it, and I just don’t particularly like the way Love of Pink smells on me. If it didn’t smell so weird on me, I would probably wear it more often and rate it a bit higher.
This perfume …
Palmers Cocoa Butter With Vitamin E
A few weeks ago, I received a free sample of the Palmers Cocoa Butter With Vitamin E lotion. I had never tried this product before, but it sounded good and I was keen to see how it felt on my skin. The Palmers Cocoa Butter With Vitamin …
L’Oreal Healthy Look Crème Gloss Color in 4AR Cool Chestnut Brown
I was excited to try out this at-home hair dye because it boasts about being semi-permanent. I wanted something that did not make my roots obvious when they grow out and something that wouldn’t completely mask away my original hair color. I expected this hair dye to deliver those …
Maybelline Lip Smooth Color and Care Lip Balm with SPF 16
Another dispensable item in my toiletry kit is lip balm. I couldn’t track how many of them I had lost in my travels. Being clumsy-thumbed means going through a constant cycle of things lost and found. The unforgiving European chill had taken its toll out of …

Hortaleza Hair Cuticle Coat Leave-on

Clinique Different Lipstick in Plum Brandy
I don’t remember when I got this Clinique lipstick in Plum Brandy. It was probably in one of those Clinique bonuses that I love to get with a purchase every couple of months. I love to take advantage of those GWP (gift with purchase) promotions, first of all because …
Fake Bake Self Tan

The Product
Cranberry Cocktail shade is a brownish red shade with hints of microshimmers.

The consistency is …

Silka Papaya
If americans would love their skin tan, here in the philippines, a large number of filipinos would like to have a whiter complexion. And I admit, I am one of those filipinos dreaming to have a smooth white skin. I almost tried everything, experimenting on what’s efffective and what …
N’Rage hair color (cobalt blue)
Since I am allergic to PPD (a chemical that is found in permanent hair dyes), I am mostly restricted to using non-permanent hair dyes that won’t send me to the hospital with a possibly fatal allergic reaction. I discovered N’Rage at my local Sally Beauty Supply. I originally went …
ChapStick Lip Balm
The other day I felt my lips drying and immediately reached for my ChapStick Lip Balm. I never go anywhere without it. While applying it, I suddenly realized I’d never done a review for this product. That amazed me. Somehow, this item had slipped through …
Biore Pore Scrub
I haven’t purchased many Biore products, however I was looking for a scrub that might help with my face. I was having breakouts, and painfully clogged pores. I bought Biore because it wasn’t any more expensive then other brands, and the product “looked” good. I know, you really can’t …
Bath and Body Works Products

Lise Watier Colour Wheel Concealer
I don’t normally use a lot of concealer/corrector on my face but I have noticed some sun spots around my mouth and some red around my nose that I wanted to conceal. I am also a student and have large bags under my eyes during exams, which need to …
Venus Embrace Razor
Being a frugal person, I always bought disposable razors because they were cheaper. So I didn’t think a really good razor was very economical. Who would want to spend so much on a razor?
So when the Venus Embrace razor first came out and it was being promoted, I …
Ever Bilena Magic Lipstick with Vitamin E
This wonderful lipstick even cheap was able to amaze me because of its staying power. It is waterproof and it stays in your lips so wonderfully and it’s none drying. If you wanted to have rosy red lips on the pool, try to use this magnificent lipstick and it …
Sainsbury’s Freshmint Toothpaste
Sainsbury’s Freshmint Toothpaste is the brand that I use most often, and I would definitely say that it worked pretty well on the whole. It is (obviously, I suppose) the own brand of the Sainsbury’s supermarket chain, and so will be easier to find in the United Kingdom than …
Avalon Organics Hand and Body Lotion in Lavender
When I need help relaxing and my skin needs a bit of nourishing I like to use the Avalon Organics Hand and Body Lotion in Lavender. It is made with pure organic ingredients and is really thick and creamy. It actually helps moisturize my skin really well while also …
Superdrug tea Tree Foaming Face Wash
Yes another Tea Tree product but surprise surprise that this didn’t come from The Body Shop. This is much the same kind of product, but at a fraction of the price. That’s the thing about brand name versus cheaper brands. Often the products are just as good but since …
