Pedi-Egg
I received my Pedi Egg for Christmas, and so far I’m very impressed.
I’ve always used those grater/sander type foot tools, with pleasant results, but this brings it to a whole new level of convenience. I’ve always found it messy to use a regular foot grater( like the kind you …
Revlon Loose Face Powder (translucent #1)
I’m not really fond of using make-up but if I am in the mood of purchasing it, I always make sure that I’m buying the best one. Putting make-up is not actually my everyday habit. Whenever I should have to wear it because of occasions or events, I just …
Rimmel Volume Flash Mousse mascara
I found Rimmel Volume Flash at a local pharmacy. It was about $7, but it looked promising. I usually love Rimmel products, but I had never tried any of their mascaras. The product promises immediate volume and length to the lashes, so I opted to try this instead …
DoMe Perfect Cut Series Soft Yaki Body Extensions
I have naturally curly African American hair that I absolutely love, but sometimes I really want to change or experiment with my look. Because I choose not to chemically process my hair, I decided to opt for extensions instead. I went to my local beauty supply store …

China Glaze Audrey Nail Polish

Nichido Juicy Lips Tangerine Pop Lipstick
I just recently found out about this Juicy Lips line from Nichido when I was at Watson one day and I was actually looking for that perfect lipstick that will as much as possible look natural on my lips. I don’t want to use nude lipsticks but I want …

CeraVe
It is a very nice line, however it doesn’t have much. I bought a cleanser and a moisturizer from there I am pretty satisfied considering the price (very affordable).
We all have sensitive skin, especially those who live in a city. CeraVe is definitely a good choice for a …
Clairol L’Image Ultimate Colour
I colour my hair at home every few months, and I usually use Clairol Nice n’ Easy, because I know my shade and I know that it works. I have occasionally ventured into other brands and been disappointed, either with the colour results or how long the colour lasts. …
Maybelline Unstoppable Mascara
I really love this Unstoppable mascara by Maybelline.
I didn’t try this mascara right when it came out but while out shopping one day and I was in the cosmetics line, I saw this mascara and thought that I would give it a try. I haven’t really seen any …
Victoria’s Secret Vanilla Lace Silkening Body Splash
Even though I purchased this product last year, I definitely had to write a review about it because I absolutely love it so much. Normally I tend to shy away from products that have Vanilla fragrances, but there is something about this one that is so enticing. …
Clinique Clarifying Lotion 3
I am always looking to find my perfect HG exfoliant, so I was eager to try the clarifying lotion by clinique. I’m sure many people think this is actually a toner, but it is actually an exfoliating lotion. It claims to de-flake the skin and encourage cell turnover. I …
Avon Senses Enchanted Shower Creme
This is one of the new Shower Creme’s out from Avon. The range only launched a few books ago and there is 3 in the range so far. They launched 1 book at a time and this was the 2nd one out.

Suave Max-Hold Volumizing Hair Mousse
I bought this product because I have fine, limp hair, and I’m always looking for ways to give it a boost —“ but volumizing gels feel too heavy, and are also gooey and unpleasant to use. I loved the idea of a foaming mousse instead. Not only …

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 …
Mango Lip Butter - The Body Shop

Bionsen anti-stress foam bath
I’ve discovered Bionsen products about a year ago when in a shop where I always buy they had a discount on Bionsen bath foams, they were selling 750ml for just 0.99 Euro. I thought that Bionsen was some cheap brand but I took one bottle to try it out. …
Tesco’s Barbara Daly Lipstick in Muse
If you are strapped for cash, you need never again have to resort to the ghastly, drying Constance Carroll range of lipsticks again. Instead, I would recommend you check out the Barbara Daly range of lipsticks that I believe are produced especially for Tesco supermarket. I am …

Aapri Exfoliating Facial Scrub Cream
Like many people, I have an oily type of skin that actually makes me prone to get big, red pimples all over. I hate it, but it happens. Fortunately, I use Aapri Exfoliating Facial Scrub Cream which works for me. There was a time when I would try …
Orly Nail Lacquer Chai Latte 18 ml
Clean nails can make a huge difference in the person’s overall appearance. It’s attractive when it’s clean and well-trimmed. It reflects the person’s hygiene too. Of course, nothing can beat naturally clean and healthy nails, but it also gives a different twist when there’s a color in it. I …
Finishing Touch Lighted Hair Remover
Removing facial hair is not a subject many of us wish to actually speak of, even though many of us have to deal with this issue in some respect. I am lucky enough not to be hairy enough to require highly expensive, salon procedures; however, I have some occasional …
Redken Smooth Down Heat Glide
I recently purchased the Redken Smooth Down Heat Glide. It is just a serum for heat protection but it is also supposed to help really control hair so that it is much more sleek and shiny and a lot less frizzy. I have been using this for the past …
Doo-Grow Hair Growth Stimulator

Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse Foundation
The Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse Foundation gets a rating of 5 out of 10 in my opinion. This is not to be confused with the “Dream Smooth Mousse” which comes in the form of a cream and is sold in a jar. Though it is from the same line …
Estee Lauder ReNutriv Ultimate Lifting Serum
To be very honest, what really influenced me to buy this product is when one of my friends told me that this is the product used by Liz Hurley after her pregnancy! I bought the cream before my delivery, and saved it until I gave birth to my lovely …

Maybelline Dream Smooth Mousse Foundation Makeup
The texture of the Maybelline Dream Matte Mouse foundation makeup isn’t quite what I was hoping for. It’s soft and in between solid, power and liquid. I’m use to another brand of Maybelline foundation and wanted to try this one to see if it would be a worthy switch. …
Oriflame Foot Cream

BIC Ecolutions Shavers
I change out my shavers on a weekly basis, because that’s usually how long they last for me. Not to say my legs are so hairy that I dull a blade within the first use, but I just happen to always run across the cheap shavers that aren’t worth …

Nars Blush Super Orgasm
Nars Blush is a beautiful pressed powder blusher that is well worth the £18.50 price tag and this shade, the fantastically titled Super Orgasm, is extremely flattering on my fair skin and would probably work well on darker skins too. The sleek black packaging is stylish as is …
Citrus Breeze shampoo
Head and Shoulders Citrus Breeze is an anti-dandruff shampoo designed specifically for fine oily hair (that’s one of the things I like about Head and Shoulders: they seem to have something for everyone).
