Clinique Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector
I used to work in a large department store that sported a great Clinique counter. Because I was the one that used to make the store-wide announcements (ie. “Attention customers, Clinique is now offering a gift with purchase….” etc) I would always get little freebie samples from them as …
Emergency Zit Stick
The first time that I saw this Emergency Zit Stick was in one of my magazines that I was reading, it didn’t actually say anything about it in the magazine itself however it was just in an ad on one of the pages in the magazine. I decided to …
Sunsilk Anti Flat Weightless Volumizing Creme
I have long straight hair that reaches my waist and they are super tough to control. I also have really oily scalp that means I have to wash my hair every single day or risk looking like an oil mine. My hair feels very soft and limp on my …
Body Shop Hemp Hand Protector
I love The Body Shop generally because of their use of natural products and luckily for me, someone bought me this Hemp Hand Protector as a present. The quirky packaging —“ a silver metal tube and a picture of a cannabis leaf on the label —“ had caught …
Bed Head Tigi Self Absorbed Set
This Bed Head set by Tigi comes with the Self Absorbed shampoo, Self Absorbed conditioner, and a Tigi Bed Head wax stick.
I started using this Self Absorbed shampoo and conditioner after I had bleached and dyed my hair blond for the first time. This shampoo and conditioner have …
Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush
I was surprised to find that I do like Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush because I tend to prefer blush in powder form and not in cream form. Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush is in cream form, but the reason that I like it is probably because of its texture. It …
Cellex-C Under Eye Toning Gel
I would get dark circles under my eyes in the past, which made me buy quite a few eye treatments. One of them was Cellex-C Under Eye Toning Gel which was worth $30 from a local health store. I used it becuase I read it can help relieve under …
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 …
Avon Senses Imagine Shower Creme
This is a new Shower Creme that has come out in Avon. This was the first one that came out and there is another 2 in the range which I will also review.

The Body Shop Honey Moisturizing Conditioner

Q-Tips Cotton Swabs
While many people cannot find as many uses as I for cotton swabs, I think that they can be essential to each home. I used to think that all cotton swabs were the same, but recently found out that they are much different and can actually have quality issues as …
O.P.I. Tickle My France-y France Collection Nail Lacquer
I almost always love O.P.I shades but this one is another one of those shades that I’m not really sure whether like it or not. This shade is called Tickle My France-y and it’s a neutral beige shade that looks very natural but in my tastes, too simple …
Vitress Instant Relax Hair Cuticle Coat
My hair needs extra special care and protection. That is because it has been through a lot of chemicals already. My hair doesn’t look damaged but knowing that it’s been chemically-treated, extra special care is necessary. Shampoo and conditioner is not enough for me and I also apply a …
Coco Butter Body Lotion
Normally, I have seen that any body lotion that promises to quench your skin with long lasting effects throughout the day, tend to be a little pricey. That is why I am so thankful I found Queen Helene’s Coco Butter for only two dollars! I say only two dollars …
Clearskin Cleansing Scrub Exfoliant
I like this scrub. I find its consistency and its texture just perfect for my taste. However, that’s the kind of scrub I wouldn’t recommend for people having very sensitive skins because the particules are so sharp, not rounded at all and it also contains some menthol, which is …
Dove Intensive Cream Nourishing Care
To help our skin more perfect radiant we should used moisturizer to soften and maintain the integrity of it. A good healthy habit or lifestyle also help us to maintain our healthy skin glows everyday. But what other ways to make it good is using a moisturizer most especially …
Coconut Lip Butter by The Body Shop

Garnier Ultra Doux conditioner
Although I have been using Garnier shampoos and conditioners for ages I really can’t say that I’ve ever found any of them that really suited me. I was never 100% satisfied with any of them and I have really tried a bunch of them. I just came back from …
Biore Skin Preservation Product Line
My skin was doing crazy things. I was starting to get pimples again. I felt like I was in high school! I was wondering why I was getting pimples again. On top of that I am always trying …
Sephora by OPI in Blue Grotto
I am an avid nail polish lover and I polish my nails very often, once a week at the very least. Hence I have quite a collection of nail polishes. OPI is one of the most reputable nail polish brands and I think it is where my love of …
Bottega Verde Green Tea Body lotion pick-me-up effect
I have very dry skin and because of that I have many body skin care products. Sometimes I get to lazy to apply something on the skin after a shower but I know that I should because it is very easy to damage your skin if you don’t take good …
Skintimate Shave Gel
This is what I use most when I shave my legs. I always change up scents but the brand is always the same. I just love everything about the Skintimate Shave Gel.
The packaging for all the Skintimate Shave Gel scents are super cute, that’s what mainly attracted me …
Smooth Away (hair removal)
My sister picked up Smooth Away at one of the stores in her area, and bragged to our mother and myself about how well this product worked. So I went and spent the money on it, unfortunately.
It worked, but as someone who has a vast amount of facial …
Garnier Nutrisse Color Creme
At 22 years old, I have gray hair. Due partly to stress and heredity, I noticed that I am getting alot of grays in the top of my head. At first I was just plucking them out, but after awhile gave up because they just seemed to come back …
Maybeline pulse perfection marscara
I’m a compulsive mascara buyer. I was born with red hair and fair skin. So, of course, my lashes are pale, and look short and thin. Actually, looks like I don’t have lashes.
I’m hooked to mascara, and everytime a new one comes on the market, I have to try …
Revlon ColorStay Liquid Eye Pen in Blackest Black
I don’t own that many products from Revlon, but honestly I’m going to start avoiding their eye products! Liquid eyeliner is not a cosmetic thing I use often, I like using my pencil better because I’m less likely to get smudging, and I feel that it’s much easier. I …
Nivea Skin Firming Lotion Witn Q10
Nivea Skin Firming Lotion Witn Q10 claims to be able to actually return some firmness to aging skin. “Q10 is a Coenzyme found naturally in the skin to help defend against aging,” Nivea explains. “Over time, the level of Coenzyme Q10 decreases and your skin starts to lose its …
Avon Strawberry & Guava Body lotion Shake
This one is the last one in the new Body Lotion shakes that have just came out in Avon. So far I have tried all 3 of them, and think they are all ok, but hope that there is a Shower Gel version coming out as I only really …
Hair Minimising Lotion by Veet
I’ve always been quite wary of products that promise to minimise hair re growth as I’ve yet to find an actual product that can live up to this claim and believe me I’ve tried just about every one going over the years. I have to shave my …
Garnier Synergie Deep Pore Wash
From outside the tube looks pretty good. It is non drip and it stands very easily. I think rather than writing on packaging I should share my experience with it.
I suggest you to read the instructions carefully. It is clearly written that you should focus on nose, forehead …
Solacesoaps’ Red Marble Soap
This product is really amazing. At a cost of less than four dollars, you will surely enjoy the scent, shape and other benefits. Let me tell you a short story of how I benefited from Solacesoaps’ Red Marble Soap few months ago.
I came to a shop selling beauty soaps, …
Physicians Formula Eye Booster Lash Boosting Eyeliner
Over the last few months, I started to notice that my lashes were looking skimpy. I normally don’t wear mascara, because I have always had thick, long and very dark lashes. This just isn’t the case anymore.
I prefer more of the natural look my for everyday look, meaning without …
Noxzema Deep Cleansing Cream plus Moisturizers
Noxzema Deep Cleansing Cream plus Moisturizers is a beauty product I have been using almost since I began wearing makeup. Noxzema is the best product I have found for removing makeup. The formula may be slightly different than it was in the early 1990’s when I began …
Derma Logics 6 Deep Cleansing Nose Strips
It has been a long time since I had the disgusting pleasure of using cleansing nose strips such as these Derma Logics ones, but I did not like this particular brand at all. They were really painful to remove for a start and then when I looked at …
Sally Hansen Spray-On Shower-Off Hair Remover
As a woman with very sensitive skin, shaving has always been quite painful for me. No matter how long I allow my skin to soak before shaving, or how much lotion I use on my legs, after shaving I would inevitably be covered in painful, tiny red bumps, often …
Foot Egg As-Seen-On-TV
I very rarely buy anything directly off a television advertisement; but I really wanted a Foot Egg. When I called the toll free number a couple of months ago to order the Foot Egg, the customer service line was busy. I forgot about this pedicure product for quite awhile …

One of my goals this year is to improve the condition of my hair. Despite the various shampoos, conditioners, and treatments that I have tried in the past, I still notice that my hair is somewhat dry and unhealthy looking. One of my friends who is a …
Vaseline Petroleum Jelly
Why am I doing a review of Vaseline Petroleum Jelly and categorizing it as a cosmetics review? The answer is simple; Vaseline Petroleum Jelly is an absolutely invaluable cosmetics product that every woman should have in her cosmetics collection. Actually, though I have identified this review as …
Ponds Beauty White Cream
Ponds Beuty White Cream gives me the kind of glow that i never know i am having. Before i was so hesitant to use it. I am not that very convince actually. But when my friend gave a sachet of it and let me try it. I notice the …
Aero Minerale Foundation Hydrating Makeup Mist in Ivory
I was out of foundation so I decided to give a new one a try called Aero Minerale Foundation Hydrating Makeup Mist in Ivory. It did cover up my uneven skin tone and it did hide blemishes, but it did not look like my face was light airbrushed with …
Clinique Super Rescue Antioxidant Night Moisturizer

Bliss Fabulous Foaming Face Wash
At only $22 for an 8 oz bottle, the Fabulous Face Wash is really fabulous! I like that it’s superior to other products in terms of cleaning properties and moisturizing effect. This product also doubles as a makeup remover and helps to combat acne. It lasts a long time …
Pro-V Fine Hair Solutions Anti-Breakage Detangler
I recently got and tried Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Solutions Anti-Breakage Detangler for my dry fine hair to help comb it out when it was damp, or simply too add moisture to it when it was really dry. So far I like the results I am seeing and I …
Sonia Kashuk Jet Set Liquid Liner in Black
I bought this eyeliner when I was in a bit of a rush, and I couldn’t get to a Sephora to pick up my usual Urban Decay eyeliner. For the price, it is a really great substitute in terms of the actual liner, but I am not a fan …

Rimmel lipstick IS long lasting
I love this lipstick. The color is deep and long-lasting. I can put it on in the morning around 8:00 and it will last until lunchtime. This is
especially extraordinary because I am drinking tea or water during the whole morning. It feels like it has moisturizers in it. When …
Selsun Blue
Awhile back, I noticed my scalp to flake and dry out. I didn’t like this much considering how I do a lot of interacting with people for various projects. I needed to present my best image possible and having a shoulders full of flakes was not a good look …
Burt’s Bees Sunscreen with Hemp Seed Oil SPF 15
Burt’s Bees products have been available in Canada for about four and a half years ago but other than a lip balm which worked beautifully, I had never tried them. For the most part I found them quite expensive; the products came in small containers so I just never …
Sauve Professionals 2 in 1 Shampoo and Conditioner
I try a lot of Suave products. Partly because its a very highly advertised brand but also becuase its among the cheapest hair care brands around.
I usually do not use 2 in 1 shampoos becuase for some reason they turn out to be worthless. However, becasue I had …
Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Face Wash
Back when I had all sorts of skin problems and allergies after moving (to grass and such), I decided to try this because everyone I knew used this, so I thought there must be something great about it. I found it otherwise. It did a wonderful job at over-drying …
