Nelsons Pure and Clear Purifying Daily Facial Wash
Although I am officially —˜middle-aged’ I do like using a face wash a couple of times a week that is especially formulated to purify and clear the skin as I do still have a tendency to a few blemishes. Because I am older I do need such a …
Loreal Paris Smooth-Intense Anti-frizz Caring Shampoo
I’m bugged by the different permutations of Loreal’s shampoos, especially their Smooth-Intense line. I just can’t make out the subtle differences between this and Elseve, as well as the Vive Pro range that are probably of the same Smooth-Intense formulations with varying packaging based on region. Mine …
Femme Couture Mineral Foundation
I have been experimenting with mineral make up since the trend began. I wish I had all the money that I have “invested” in trying to find the best mineral foundation for my fair, sensitive skin. Fortunately, while in my local Sally Beauty Supply, I happened upon …
Mederma Stretch Marks Therapy Lotion
I have stretch marks on my legs. I got it from the time I had my first period. I was unaware that when I have my menstruation, it always feels itchy on the leg part and I cannot avoid not scratching it. The results are this awful stretch mark …
Dove Pink Beauty Cream Bar
Dove is one of my trusted brands of soap. I like Dove soaps because they are not harsh unlike most soaps in the market these days. Dove soaps are all very good so it would be impossible for me to pick a favorite so what I usually do is, …
Caress Sheer Twilight Body Wash
I recently picked up an 18 fluid ounce bottle of Caress Sheer Twilight Black Orchid and Juniper Oil Body Wash and I have been using it for about 4 days now and must say I have fallen in love with the way it works and smells. I also …
Kerastase, Protector Solaire (Shampoo - Gel and Spray)
This product has been and still is my favourite in the shower when the sunny days arrive. With good weather I always feel like going out and enjoying the nice weather, but the salt spray and chlorine in pools makes me worry about my hair , so at least …
Bach Recue Cream Original Flower Essences 1.7 Ounce
When a friend in France told me how she effectively used Back Rescue Remedy to alleviate her anxiety I was skeptical. I mean, what could putting on a flower essence cream do to stop stressors, right? However, when my son began having a lot of anxiety about school and …
Jason Soap Tea Tree Satin
I have found this soap to be really quite ideal for dry skin. After using this soap, my skin does not feel as dry or as irritated compared with regular face soap. After about three or four days use, I started to see a noticeable improvement and after a …
Loreal Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara
This is a drug store mascara, and is by far way better than the high end mascaras I’ve purchased. It does the same thing if not better, but the L’Oreal Voluminous Mascara is much more reasonably priced. However, even though I love this product, there are one or two …
Burt’s Bees Citrus Facial Scrub
Burt’s Bees Citrus Facial Scrub cost only $2 when I bought i at a health store. Back then I did not have any severe acne nor blackheads, and I did not have any problem which needed serious treatment. It is made by Burt’s Bees and is available in jar …
MAC Paint Eye Shadow, Sublime Nature
I don’t know about you other makeup wearers out there, but I was under the impression that eye shadows came in pressed powders. But I came across something new and exciting when I discovered MAC Paints. What this product is that it’s a liquid cosmetic for the …
Benefit Cosmetics Eye Bright
At first when I got this product, I didn’t even know the purpose of it, I just received it as a gift from a party. I saw that it was by the company Benefit, but sadly I never heard of that brand, or company name. It looked to be …
Maybelline Fit Me! Liquid Foundation
This is the first foundation I’ve ever purchased so I wasn’t very sure what to expect but, to me, this foundation seems to be a really good one. I wasn’t exactly positive on what one would be the right color foundation for me so I wandered around the …
Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Liner Shadow
Bare Escentuals revolutionized the way women wear foundation. As opposed to the outdated ritual in which American women have been habitualized of applying liquid, irritating goop to their skin, this company created the healthy mineral foundation. Now they are revolutionizing the way women can wear and apply eyeliner. As …
Cetaphil Face Cleanser
Since i was twenty years old I’ve been struggling with allergies and as a result a lot of acne appears frequently on my face. My dermatologist required me to distance myself from regular soap when using it in my face since it would further the damage of the acne. …
Nivea Kiss of Sunshine Lip Gloss
I am very particular about lip gloss because everything that I have gotten up to this point has been such a hit or miss, mostly miss unfortunately. I do not like there to be a whole lot of color in my lip gloss as I do not wear make-up …
Remington Wet 2 Straight Flat Iron
The Remington Wet 2 Straight Flat Iron gets a rating of 5 out of 10 in my opinion. Things I don’t like include that its poor design snags my hair in the flat iron and pulls it out, it is very damaging when used on wet hair, and it …
Mena Facial Cream
I have this officemate with blemish-free skin. Even up close, it seems to be glowing and perfect. When I ask her secret she said it is Mena Facial Cream. I have already seen this product in a TV commercial but I am skeptical about it because I have tried …
Clinique Almost Lipstick
Most of todays lipstick are too glossy, sticky and thick. There are tips I want to share in getting the perfect lips with the help of a lipstick. It is necessary that you choose a lipstick color which has similar description with your skin. When I say description, it …
Skin White Power Whitening (Face Cream Powder)
I don’t like putting too much make-up on my face. I want it to look clean and more natural-looking as possible. But to achieve a natural-looking face even with some make-up on seems impossible. Until I have found a product that serves as a cream powder, moisturizer and makes …
HydroPeptide Anti-Wrinkle Dark Circle Concentrate
A few months ago I remember getting some dark circles under my eyes after a month of sleeping late. I really don’t have under eye circles as I don’t have them in my genes nor was it a family problem. I just have them when I sleep late and …
Maybelline Mousse Foundation
I like Maybelline’s lipstick (especially the water shine), but when it’s about facial care products/cosmetic, i gotta say that I don’t like Maybelline. I have an oily skin, and have tried to use their Oil free products. Let’s say that it did reduce my skin oil, but it also …
Estee Lauder Pleasures Bloom Perfume
I recently tried Estee Lauder Pleasures Bloom Perfume and I must say it smelled amazingly nice. It wasn’t too strong or too light smelling. It was just right. It came in a little 2 ounce bottle and was a bit pricy, but was worth every dollar I spent on …
Clairol Renewal 5X Shampoo
Clairol Renewal 5X Shampoo is a good line of shampoo that, unfortunately, is no longer so easily available as before. You could buy it at any Walmart, K-Mart, or Walgreens; now you’ll have to do an extensive search online to find it. Coming from a trusted name brand, Clairol …
Make Up For Ever’s HD Microfinish Powder
I’ve heard a lot of good reviews about this powder, and I’ve seen the proof with resulting make-up looks on people, that I had to buy it for myself! Now Make Up For Ever is a brand/company that I’ve known for years, and who I’m very familiar with. They …
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser (16 fl oz)
I have acne prone skin, and having that in mind, I want to be able to find a good cleanser that does not harm my skin in any way and aggravate my tendency to have zits. Now I read from a lot of review sites that Cetaphil is a …
Braun GCS70 Smoothstyler Cordless Hair Styler
Styling can be harmful to your hair especially when this involves the use of heat. However, I just can’t help but use heat sometimes and that’s a bit of a sacrifice for me. A little of something once in a while, after all, does not hurt.
I have always had …
Milani Minerals Loose Makeup
Mineral makeup is much healthier for the skin and I have recently been collecting various mineral makeup products from all different brands.

L’Oreal Pure Zone Anti-Imperfection Moisturizer
I bought the L’Oreal Pure Zone Anti-Imperfection Moisturizer on sale. I have to admit that the first thing that came to my mind was that it might not be effective since nobody wanted to buy it at a regular rate. Anyway, I liked the packaging of white and baby …

L’Oreal Infallible lip gloss (6hr wear)
The L’Oreal Infallible six hour lasting lip gloss, is a bit of a dissapointment. This lip gloss goes on very nice. It looks absolutely beautiful, but it does not last six hours.
I have never tried any long lasting lip sticks or glosses before. I have bought lip sticks that …
Revlon Colorstay Mineral Foundation
This is the perfect tiny compact foundation powder that I have found on the market, and I love it. It is so convenient to take with me everywhere, and I don’t have to worry about it leaking out in my bag. I love Revlon, but now I love it …

Avon Foot Works Deodorizing Foot Powder
I have to admit, I have really stinky feet! Yes, they are horrible and my fiancé begs me to try different powders and sprays to see if I get the lovely aroma under control. So, I try a lot of foot powders.
The Avon catalog was being passed …
Clean & Clear Moisturizer
I only used a bottle of it and as I experienced, I think this is a good moisturizer because whenever I use it as a base for makeup, I feel that it doesn’t clog my pores. And there’s not so much oily or greasy feeling. I like the scent, …
St. Ives Moisturizing Body Wash
The smell of the Swiss Formula, Crystal Springs St. Ives Fresh H2O is fresh and clean. When shaving, I actually, found this easier than using shaving cream. It soaps up very nicely and rinses of easily. It only takes a very small portion, perhaps the size of a penny, …
Josie Maran Bear Naked Wipes
When it comes to skin care, everyone has their own routine. Most women tend to prefer foaming cleansers or cream based cleansers. However, after working in the cosmetic industry for more than five years now, first at Ulta, then at Sephora, I’ve realized that these types of cleansers aren’t …
Avon Skin So Soft Body Lotion
I swear I will never ever buy this lotion again! Even the whitening one didn’t work. I tried it for curiosity’s sake and was helping out my friend at the time making commissions as she is a local dealer here in the Philippines, but I never ordered it again …
Burt’s Bees Herbal Deodorant with Oil of Sage
Burt’s Bees has created this herbal deodorant that I would describe as not strong enough for a man maybe strong enough for a woman. The premise behind the deodorant is that it is all natural (with its listed ingredients Sage Oil, Lavender Oil, Lemon Peel Oil and SD …
Burt’s Bees Orange Essence Facial Cleanser
Face cleansers have always been a part and parcel of my skin care routine. Living in a world with so much of dust and pollution around, makes it just vital for me to take that little bit of an extra step to actually help clean thoroughly. Moreover a …
L’Oreal Paris PURE ZONE Cream Step3
This is an everyday cream, suitable for both oily and normal skin. The cream moisturizes skin and has a smoothing effect; it narrows pores, does not allow skin to become too oily and thus prevents the appearance of pimples and unpleasant scaling of the skin. I find it easy …
Naturally Fresh Deodorant Crystal - Roll On
I found this roll on deodorant on the shelves of Walmart and bought 4 of them immediately hoping that it would work (I’m also well aware of Walmart’s return policy so I figured I was safe). I am happy to say that I have found this product to …

I love Zoya and all things related to them. It’s one of those brands that you can’t go wrong with, because it has an excellent reputation which is proven again and again every time I purchase Zoya polish. Whenever I buy Zoya polish, I don’t worry about the quality, …
