e.l.f Studio Daily Brush Cleaner
A couple of months ago, I ordered the e.l.f Studio Daily Brush Cleaner from e.l.f Cosmetics while placing an order for some new makeup brushes. While I think that cleaning your makeup brushes after every use with a daily brush cleaner is an excellent idea, I quickly learned that …
Nair 15 Second Microwave Wax
I remember seeing all of those great commercials for Nair products growing up. I usually consider it to be a good quality brand, but this product was certainly disappointing. I purchased it from a local discount store for about $10 specifically to use on my legs. …
L’Oreal Preference Haircolor, Lightest Golden Brown
As a woman, the one thing I can change about my appearance on a regular basis is my hair color. The great thing about coloring your hair is that you get immmediate satisfaction from it. It’s not like dieting where you have to slave at the gym, count every …
Avon Vanilla Body Lotion Shake
This range is brand new out in Avon. It comes in 3 different scents and I had to buy all 3 just to try them. Since they were new and on a special offer price then I just had to.
These are part of the Naturals Collection and this …
OLAY Body Age Defying moisturizing soap bars
OLAY Body Age Defying moisturizing soap bars are a soap I have used several times. The scent is very feminine and leaves your skin feeling smoother than it was before you took a bath. I like these bars because I can also use them to wash my …
Chanel Seashell Lip Gloss
Regardless of the fact that I have worked in the cosmetic industry for more than three years now, lip gloss is lip gloss to me. It really never mattered if it was five dollars or forty dollars, CoverGirl or Dior. However, recently I was at Macy’s and became intrigued …
ZA Two-way Foundation, Shade 34 with SPF 20 PA++
In my pursuit to find the best foundation for my oily, sensitive skin I was out to try anything and everything that claimed to be good or was claimed to be good. The ZA Two-way Foundation with SPF 20 PA++ (PA stands for UVA protection and ++ being …
Revlon Colorstay Makeup with SPF 6
I do not have acne-prone skin and I do not have a lot of acne marks, but I love to be able to cover my skin with a good foundation that lasts a long time simply because I hate the thought of reapplying my powder or concealer every now …
Freeman Cleansing Apple Cider Vinegar Clay mask + scrub
I love a good clay mask and Freeman has been one of my favourite brands to buy masks from for years. It’s a cruelty-free and affordable brand that I sincerely love. I’ve tried almost all of their masks, however, the last time I went to Ulta I noticed that …
Maybelline Dream Matte Pressed Powder in Fair
This is another item I bought off ebay recently together with a bunch of other Maybelline cosmetics. I wouldn’t call it a Maybelline haul since I’m not really frenzied to shed some of my money for such items except that the mark downs in prices were so impulsive. …
Clinique instant lift for eyebrows
I normally love Clinique products but I have recently found a product that I don’t recommend to others. I recently purchased Clinique’s instant lift for brow pencil in 03 deep brown. This pencil was too soft and thick for an eyebrow pencil. For an eyeliner, the consistency and feel …
Dirty Works Go Balmy! Berry Lip Balm
This Go Balmy! Berry Lip Balm from the Dirty Works range is one of the best lip balms I have ever tried and, not only does it work really well, but you get a lot of product for your money. I cannot remember the price exactly but it …
Expression Kajal eyeliner by Maybelline
I have two Expression Kajal eyeliner pencils. White one (nr.35), which I have bought quite a while ago and Frosted Brown (nr.47), which I have purchased recently. I use them separately and together, and I am extremely satisfied with the results.
First of all, I can create both thin and …
Nivea DNAge Zone Action (Body) with Folic Acid
I have been told by my resident dermatologist that it’s okay to start using Anti-ageing skin care products even at my young age. In my twenties, I don’t really consider buying into that anti-age make-your-self-look-younger hype. It wasn’t entirely for that matter that I went on using …
Essence of Beauty Jasmine Ginger Body Hand Cream
My mother said that she bought the Essence of Beauty Body and Hand Cream for me from a woman selling cosmetics at her workplace. I never had any cosmetics that were ginger flavoured before this so I was a bit skeptical about it too, a part from because of …
Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF15
This is possibly the best oil-free moisturizer I have tried. Unlike some of Neutrogena’s other lotions that are targeted toward people with oily skin or acne, this one does not contain salicylic acid. I have always thought of Neutrogena’s products as being a bit overpriced for what they do, …
Too Faced Lash Injection Mascara
People have recently been raving about the Too Faced Lash Injection Mascara so much. Like any other makeup product that people talk about a lot, I felt compelled to purchase it. I got it online on the Too Faced website but I know that it is also available in …

Cucumber Facial Toner by The Body Shop
I have been a fan of The Body Shop for many years now and when I was younger I worked almost next door to a large store in my home town. Because of the close proximity this resulted in most of my lunch breaks being spent in there …
Pond’s Age miracle cream
I had seen the Ponds age miracle cream advertisement on TV so often that I began to believe that it would create a miracle. The only that kept me from buying it for my wife was the price. It costs INR 700.00 for 50ml jar. Well it was her …
Body Delights Travel Sampler
This is another sampler set that I got from Bath and Body Works, all the products in this set are samples, I love getting sample sizes because that gives me a chance to try out things before I pay for the full sizes and end up not liking something …
Dove Whitening Anti-Perspirant Deodorant
I have been using Rexona and The Body Shop’s deodorant for months now but a month ago, I came across this deodorant from Dove. I am curious about deodorant whitening products if what they can really do to your pits. My pits are one shade darker than my skin …
Chanel Glossimer in Spark
I am a big fan of Chanel Glossimers. Although they are somewhat expensive at over $20.00 a tube, I find them to be of high quality and I like the way they feel on my lips. Like other glossimers, Chanel glossimer in Spark comes in a tube …
Pantene 3-Minute Miracle Treatment
I have had countless hair rebonding since 2003 and it caused severe damage to my hair. It became dry, brittle, dull and it became more prone to breakage. I was looking for a product that would help repair my damaged hair. I saw the Pantene 3-Minute Miracle Treatment commercial …
Bath & Body Works Plumeria Body Lotion
I bought this bottle of lotion for $9.50 at a 236 ml bottle or an 8 fluid ounce bottle, it’s actually quite small and quite pricey for my tastes but I needed some “average” lotion to put on my body while I’m having my massages as the other oils …
ELF Brightening Eyeliner (Gilded)
I used to wear a lot of dark makeup around my eyes. Because my eyeliner was already very smudged and thick, it didn’t really matter how nice the brad was, because it was very smudged already, and there really wasn’t going to be any other possible way that it …
Avon Far Away Skin Softener
I don’t use Skin Softener all that much, but that isn’t because I don’t like it, just more so that I am just that bit lazy. A Skin Softener is just basically a richer, perhaps thicker version of a Body Lotion, so I perhaps use a Skin Softener just …
Almay Smart Shade Concealer (Light/Pale)
Almay Smart Shade Concealer (Light/Pale) is thus far one of my favorite concealer brands I have ever used. At first I really did not like it because I was used to heavy makeups that I used a lot more pressure to apply. I simply was not very good at applying …
Vichy Normateint Anti-Imperfection Foundation
I have been using Vichy Normateint Anti-Imperfection Foundation for more than 6 months and I wouldn’t change it with none of the foundations I have previously used. I am not a big fan of this makeup product, but this one made realize that not all the foundations are that …
3W Clinic 100% Aloe Vera Soothing Gel
Though I have heard so much about the benefits of Aloe Vera for skincare and ton of other benefits, I never really got around to using it. Something about the look of the leaf and the slimy insides made it look like some complicated stuff.
The other time when I …
Silkies Enriche Ageless Moisturizer
I received a free sample of a product called Silkies Enriche Ageless Moisturizer in the mail and, as always, was happy to get new to try without shopping or spending any money. The packaging called this product an —˜all-in-one moisturizer’ with SPF 14, and the directions instructed me to use …
MAC Mineralize Blush in Super Duper Natural
I dislike wearing full face make-up unless it is necessary. Although I have my days of wanting to look extra polished and feminine, most of the time, I just put on blush, lip gloss or lip tint and I’m good to go. This is why finding the right shade of …
African Pride, Olive Miracle: Moisturizer Lotion
I was searching for a new moisturizer after finally running totally out. I was shopping in my neighborhood dollar general store, browsing their ethnic hair care aisle when I spotted African Pride, olive miracle moisturizer lotion. I’ve previously heard good things about African Pride hair products from my older …
KSA Magic Face & Body Bleaching Cream
I saw my mom using the KSA Magic Face & Body Bleaching Cream and I want to give it a shot. Although I don’ use this product to cover and bleach the skin all over my face and body, I only use it for my underarms. It’s not really …
Garnier Fructis Fortifying Shampoo for Normal Hair
Garnier Fructis Fortifying Shampoo for Normal Hair comes in a very distinctive, bright green 13 fl. oz. plastic bottle. The shampoo itself is white and creamy, with a pleasant fruity scent. I usually enjoy French brands of hair products, but for some reason this shampoo didn’t work very well …
Avon True Color Eyeshadow Quad
I like to look good everywhere I go all the time. To look good in a sense that I won’t be masking my true features with artificially and heavily-colored cosmetics for my eyes.
Avon True Color Eye Shadow Quad is what I consider a true colorful …
Lorial so soft shampoo
Who does not know about the Lorial beauty products? The Lorial beauty products are very good and extra ordinary and even the cost of these products is also very high. But one can be sure after buying the Lorial cosmetics that they are using the best quality …
The Body Shop Banana Shampoo
I had forgotten about this lovely shampoo until I saw an advert for it in a magazine which reminded me of how delicious it smells. The Body Shop Banana Shampoo was originally launched in 1990 and at some point was discontinued but has now been brought …
L’oreal Colour Riche Lipstick in Cashmere
The L’oreal Colour Riche Lipstick in Cashmere (854) is a medium-toned mauve color with white shimmer. I think this lipstick is nice for a professional setting. Maybe it’s just me, but I’ve noticed that a lot of older women like slightly darker colors while teenagers and people in their …
Acrylic Nails
I love getting acrylic nails but there are definately a few drawbacks to them. I tend to have a problem with my nails splitting and breaking, no matter what nail treatment I apply to them I continue to have this problem so getting acrylic definately helps with this because …
Monoi de Tahiti Nourishing after sun body cream

Lever 2000 Deodorant Soap Refresh Pure Rain

Revlon Photo Ready Liquid Foundation is the best liquid foundation that I have ever used so far. It comes in a 30 ml bottle that costs a little more than PhP500 (Philippine Peso) or US$12. It has 10 different shades namely: Vanilla, Shell, Nude, Natural Beige, Medium Beige, Cool …
Jason Natural Cosmetics 98% Aloe Vera Super Gel
Every since the day that I relaxed my hair, I have noticed that it does not take as many products in order to style my hair. I used to use gel to style my hair everyday when it was natural, but now I rarely use it maybe two …
IMAN Cosmetics Under Cover Agent Oil Control Primer
One of my favorite shows to watch on television is What Not to Wear, which I think is on Discovery. Part of the reason I love this show is because the cosmetics expert teaches people the correct way to apply makeup to best accent your positive traits and best …
