Got 2 B Glued hair glue
I used to use this stuff constantly, I have really thick curly hair and standard gel doesn’t work, this is not a practical solution or a practical product. You can’t really mix this stuff with water and make it work, it really does got 2 b glued, it’s all …
Almay Truly Lasting Color Makeup

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock

touchups. The foundation, although it is a …

Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel In Tube

MaryKate & Ashely Naughty or Nice Pearlized Lip Glam

I recently purchased Crest Pro-Health Rinse (500ml bottle) at my local supermarket. I had a coupon so I thought I’d give it a try. It claims to kill germs that cause bad breath, plaque, and gingivitis. It is also alcohol-free, which is good. I can’t attest to whether those …
