Recently I decided to get a deodorant and ended up trying one I never used before. This was Lady Speed Stick Stainguard Powder Fresh Antiperspirant. At first I thought that I would have the same positive experience with it like I did with the Secret Brand of deodorant, which I …

I found out about this blush when I read an interview with my favorite print model. I have always thought that she looked very dainty and fresh in her photos, and I had a hunch that it was mostly because of her makeup. So when I read that she …

My neighborhood Walmart was having a sale on many of their beauty products and cosmetics. Which gave me the opportunity to pick up a bottle of Dial Coconut Water Refreshing Mango Hydrating Body Wash.
In the past I have been eyeballing Dial and their line of body washes but never …

Every cosmetic brand, whether high-end department store or cheaper drugstore brands, have pressed powders available, and you can get confused with all the types and shades. I have found one that I always go back to, despite trying dozens of face powders, bronzers, skin highlighters and toners and other …

I bought this lip gloss uptown for quite a bit of money when I was working. However, after going to a few places downtown and seeing it for a much more affordable price, I most definitely think I overspent on it. White I paid over $J1000 uptown, I saw …

I tried Clean and Clear Blackhead Clearing Scrub for two reasons. First, I tend to get blackheads on my chin and nose occasionally. Secondly, my makeup seems to go on better when I regularly exfoliate. That is, it doesn’t seem to settle into my pores as …

Anybody who has had their fair share of experience when it comes to Aveeno then you may know that they offer some of the best products on the market. One of the things that I like about this product is that they are universal and when it comes to …

I’ve been meaning to try (or bluntly said, afford) Givenchy cosmetics for the longest time. I was drooling over Givenchy’s eye shadows more than anything else, but the Fleur de Frangipanier unique compact powder was so impossible to resist. It’s a tanning face color or bronzer. …

I for once used this Nature’s Gate Daily SPF 15 Sunscreen Moisture Cream. I bought a two ounce jar some four months ago from The Healthy Options, Festival Supermall 2nd level, Alabang , Muntinlupa City branch. This is the most accessible branch of Healthy Options for me. I’m …

I have been a long time user of Secret products. I also have an issue with heavy sweating. Usually a woman would not share this bit of information, but this is a reality for some of us. When I first saw the commercial for it, I could not wait …

I have to give this shaver props for being the most sexy looking women’s shaver I have ever seen. I can leave it out without being embarrassed and I actually prefer to leave it out because it actually looks kind of hot in my white bathroom. I love the …

I have spent what seems like all my life searching for great hair care products that fulfill all my hair needs and keep working after using for a long time. I have been unimpressed with both salon and drug store brands until I discovered the Bedhead Dumb Blonde line …

This is another great moisturizer made by the very trusted brand, Clinique. I first tried the trial packs that came in sachets (the regular packaging comes in a small bottle). I wanted to test it first before the buying the full package since Clinique products can be quite expensive. …

I was happy to discover a new sunscreen the other day. I like getting a tan during the summer, but I am naturally fair skinned. I also get sun burnt bad on my face if I don’t use a good sunscreen. I think that it is very important to …

The sport stick deodorant by personal care sucks. The label claims that the deodorant has a clean fresh scent which it does but guess what, it doesn’t last for no more than an hour! The personal care sport stick deodorant is one of the worst deodorants I have ever …

The best mascara. Every woman not less than one time in her life desired for a mascara that would be perfect for her eyelashes. And I also have no exception.
So, as a outcome of years and years of seeking, buying and experimenting, I eventually discovered the best mascara …

This particular night cream I used before was recommended to me by a friend who says it is the best that she has tried so far among the amy brands of the stuff available in the market. The brand is not as famous as the big names constantly advertised …

While my vain self may look good sporting a healthy tan, a crop of sun-fried hair is surely a bad thing for me. A recent trip to the beach was a nice kick-off for the summer here in the Pacific but the dehydrating heat also caused a head …

I used Biore Pore Strips which only cost $2 online. I bought it because I wanted to get rid of my blackheads quickly and without any scars. Here are my experiences.
This is basically a pore strip measuring 3 in x 3 in, which can remove your blackheads …

I really like Benefit, but I’m definitely not a fan of this particular product. The consistency makes it more than difficult to use, it just feels gross. They have very limited colors to choose from, and I don’t like that it tries to combine brightening effects with a concealer …

Once and awhile my skin becomes super cracked and very dry and the only body care product that seems to help heal up my dried cracked skin is Vaseline Rich Conditioning Petroleum Jelly with Cocoa Butter. It seals the moisture right into my skin and really helps relieve the …

When I think of Artistry two things come to my mind:
- very expensive but also very good products
- Amway
Although the products are really expensive I don’t hold that against them because I have never tried an Artistry product that wasn’t good. I didn’t like the lipsticks and eye shadows …

I have a long history with Bottega Verde cosmetic company, my sister has been a member there for a long time now, so 5 years I think so we always buy there. I can say that I’ve tried a lot of their products, even those which are usually very …

It has been a while since I purchased some eyeshadow and I decided that it was time to update my makeup bag. I purchased this eyeshadow a few days ago and I absolutely love it. I have medium brown African American skin and I love to wear …

For something that offers 24-hour protection, it should lived up to its promise because consumers count on that guarantee. I was scouting one time for new deodorant because I was traveling for a short trip and I wanted to just bring light luggage. Because that trip would only costs …

I have gone through, bottle after bottle trying to find the best shampoo for my hair. After colouring it so many times, ive left my hair dry, dull and at breakage point. In the past i had used color vive gentle shampoo and it worked great but it …

I am one of those unblessed people who have dark circles around their eyes because of fatigue and sleepless nights. This is definitely a concern for me because it makes me look 10 years older and horrible. I look like an old racoon and no matter how many you-tube videos …

I love lotion and scented products and almost everyone who knows me knows this about me. Since I am known for this, a friend of mine purchased a perfumed lotion for me from Jessica McClintock. I had never really used Jessica McClintock and was just hoping it would be …

I have been using all different nail products from Sally Hansen for years and I think the brand has some of the best nail care and beauty items out there. The brand new nail care product from them that I have been using lately is the Quick Care …

One of the organic cosmetic color palettes I like to use is Fruit Pigmented Pretty Naked Palette from 100 Percent Pure. It is filled with warm natural colors that help brighten my skin up and add a warm pop of natural color to my skin so I am glowing …

I actually tried Biore strips many moons ago when I was just a teenage girl in the prime of her hormonal and acne afflicted youth. My sister had actually purchased it for herself because she had a lot of blackheads on her nose, and she swore up and down …

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 …

I have had colored hair since I was in high school. I have naturally dark brown hair, and a shiny one at that. I have very limp, but healthy and shiny hair. Since the day I started experimenting with hair color, I have stuck with the L’Oreal brand of …

After getting a great result from the Pure Ceramic hair brush from Brush Lab, I purchased a couple more of brushes from their online store. I was so in love with the brushes from Brush Lab. This is the kind of brush that gives me the impression of what am …

This was actually a really good package deal for me to run across when I was looking for something to give my teenage son as a stocking stuffer. He’s just not getting to the point where shaving is going to become a very real part of his daily regime …

I first saw Sofcil Eye Make-Up Remover Travel Pads on an advertisement on television, and the next time I went looking for a make-up remover product, I remembered them and took a good look. The brand makes a lotion or the pads, but I always prefer pads, as they …

Typical MAC blusher casing. Blush pan is quite large. No brush is included which is ok because I prefer my own anyway.
COLOUR PAYOFF : 3.5/5
FINISH : 5/5

I have very dry skin on my body even though my face is really oily. In the winter, I tend to get even drier to the point of being extremely itchy. I believe my skin is also rather sensitive as the slight tug and pull of constant itching causes …

I have a frequently washed hair and too much treated with straightening and ironing. Good thing I have found the right shampoo to use to moisture and make therapy for my damaged hair. But I still found out that shampooing and conditioning my hair is not enough. And the …

In theory this could have been a good mascara. The idea here was that you could customize the look of your lashes with the choice of two looks in one mascara. It did not work for me. This product was fun to try , but a bit of a …

‘Sawame’ is a Hong Kong brand name that makes a lot of make up and cleansers. You can get this for a good price in HK which is equivalent to about $4 CAD. It really does whiten your skin a little. The description says it contains ingredients that helps …

Of all the lipstick brands I have tried, Lancome Le Rouge Absolu came out the winner. I love this lipstick because for one, it has a nice packaging. The tubes are elegantly designed with different colors like red, black and blue. I had only one Lancome Le …

This is a great toothpaste to use. It is affordable and gives your teeth not only a good cleaning, but also a good whitening too. This stuff works and is good for you whole mouth. Try it out if you want to get good checkups at your dentist. You …

They say that cucumber is good for revitalizing our eyes. I’ve seen a lot of commercials, movies and TV shows where the artists place freshly sliced cucumber on their eyes to remove the eyebags and dark circles under their eyes. Several friends also say this really works. But I …

Im nearing thirty and even if my hair is thick and shiny, I have been using hair gel for more than a decade and I am afraid of the adverse consequence it will have on my hair. My hair has also a thick texture that it is difficult to sculpt …

A year ago, I had this unremitting affinity to rouge lipsticks. In fact, most of my lip palette consisted of dark autumnal hues from deep magenta to warm browns. I found rouge lipsticks to be sensual. Initially, I had hoped this long last lipstick from Clinique …

Anyone with naturally curly hair will agree that it sometimes a blessing and sometimes a curse. My curly mop really has a mind of it’s own and I am constantly on a mission to keep the curls frizz free and defined. Many products are available that promise the world …

Dry skin tends to appear in the winter more now then ever. If you are not comfortable wearing gloves in the winter and your hands are suffering with dry or cracked skin or just don’t like to use lotion when your hands are dry and cracking, there is a …

I thought all cuticle removers are equal. I actually don’t even mind what brand it is for as long as I have cuticle remover in my manicure set then that is enough for me. Sometimes going to the parlor may not fit my schedule so doing my own manicure …

I went to my local Shiesido counter for getting some information on their foundation line but ended up getting the Loose Powder in Warm Beige. The salesperson at the counter informed that it will not give a powdery look and will keep the face shine free and make …
