Sheer Cover Makeup
It took more than two weeks, while the Sheer Cover kit arrived to me by mail. I almost forgot that I ordered it and the impression of wonderfully looking women in the informecial had already vanished. Well, but there it was —“ a promising larger box. I played the …
Almay’s Smart Shade liquid foundation
I’ve been using Smart Shade liquid foundation probably ever since Almay first came out with it. I have it in light/medium shade and at the time I thought it was the coolest product out there, then everyone else started coming out with their own version. Still, nothing is quite …
Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Cleansing Pads
As any woman will tell you an essential part of skin care in cleansing especially if wearing make-up is a frequent occurrence. While I usually use my positively radiant cleanser at night I like to use the Aveeno Daily Cleansing Pads in the morning and when I am …
White Rain Water Blossom Shampoo
I bought a small bottle first of only 400ml just to test this new product. I wanted to try a milder shampoo because I felt my hair was getting dried and brittle due to my regular rebonding regimen. I read the ingredients of White Rain Water Blossom Shampoo and …
Nivea extra whitening cell repair anti-perspirant
There are actually two versions of this product, the stick version and the roll-on version. This review is for both since I’ve already tried both of them.
I’ll start with the good. There’s always this hoax that when you use deodorants, you’re bound to see your underarms darken. That’s why …
Suave natural rainforest fresh body wash
I like using body washes over soaps. Soaps make my already dry skin even drier. The facts which I like about body washes are the small amount of body wash form enough lather to cover whole body and the loofah exfoliates body as well as body …
The Body Shop Tinted Glow Enhancer
I saw this product and figured I would try it out. I am glad that I did,because this stuff is great. It does a lot for your skin and is perfect to wear anytime of the year. It is not that expensive,and a good makeup product to add to …
Dr Hauschka Lemon and Lemongrass Body Oil
Dr Hauscka has recently reformulated one of my very favourite body products, Lemon Body Oil, to include Lemongrass. At first I was mildly irritated (if it ain’t broke don’t fix it and all that) but after using the new formulation for a couple of weeks I’m impressed enough to …
Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse Liquid Makeup
After trying Dream Liquid Mousse Liquid Makeup by Maybelline I was very pleasantly surprised at how my skin looked. I have pores on my nose that are visible, even after putting on certain foundation makeup. Even some of the higher priced foundation makeup that I have from …
E.L.F Luscious Liquid Lipstick in Pink Lemonade Shade
I was looking for an all-in-one lipstick from E.L.F and found this product since I just wanted to lessen the contents of my purse because I usually had to bring my lip gloss along with my usual lipstick.
Using the product was different all right because when I would use …

Aloe Vera Jelly
Aloe Vera gel is made from the leaves of a succulent plant. It’s supposed to help soothe your skin and help it heal faster. The reason I’ve read that it can heal skin quicker is that it increases blood flow to the wound. A lot of people swear by …
L’Oreal Infallible lipstick
The first time I saw this lipstick was when I went to a friend’s house before we were going out, and I saw her doing her makeup using two lipsticks instead of one. When I asked her about it, she explained me about L’Oreal Infallible, and let me try …
Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion
The Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion is what i use for my face moisturizer every day. This product is specifically for people with dry skin,like myself. I have very dry skin and it can get really flaky at times. This product claims to relieve and protect dry skin, and it …
Skin So Soft Soft and Sensual Roll-On Anti-Perspirant DeodorantG
One of the roll on I tried is Skin So Soft Soft and Sensual Roll-On Anti-Perspirant Deodorant. On the packaging it says it has a soft floral blend of lush white peaches, sensual sore, jasmine and warm vanilla. I remember I used essential oils that have jasmine. Jasmine is …
Nutrispecific Ultra Comfort Lotion for daytime by Yves Rocher
A while ago I was introduced the fantastic beauty company Yves Rocher. Since discovering how great their products are I have been steadily working my way through as much as my monthly paycheck will allow me to buy and up to press I haven’t been disappointed with anything.
When …
Estee Lauder Resilience Lift Extreme Overnight Ultra Firming Creme
When I reached my thirties, I began noticing some real flaws becoming apparent with my skin. Aside from the dark unnatural spots, I started noticing some wrinkles on my forehead and underneath and on the sides of my eyes. Hence, I began researching and discovered that the use of …
Ultra Compact Wet Wipes
I like having wet wipes in my bag at all times since I find them to be very handy especially when I might not be able to have access to a bathroom. However, recently for some strange reason I just plain forgot to buy some, and I ended up …
Milani Moisture Renew liquif’eye Eyeliner
I absolutely hate how the Milani Moisture Renew Liquif’eye eyeliner smudges so easily! Right off the bat, that is the worst thing about it. I was in Meijer in the makeup aisle looking for black eyeliner. I had black eyeliner before but I had either lost it or one of …
MAC Viva Glam Gaga Lipstick
I bought the MAC Viva Glam Gaga lipstick because I’ve noticed that pink has been mainstream lately! I see a lot of teens and young adults trying to pull off that “Barbie” or girly pink look, with something like long blonde hair, big eyelashes, pink blush, and pink lipstick. …
Tresemme Deep Smoothing Masque Hair Conditioning Sachet
I love the Tresemme range of hair products with a professional touch. I tried out this Deep Smoothing Masque Sachet —˜with new salon formula’ and although I loved it as a conditioning mask that has clearly had a good effect on my hair, I did not notice that …
Almay Clear Complexion Concealer
Both my mother and I use Almay’s Clear Complexion Concealer.
My mother uses it for breakouts, and it basically zaps them away after a few hours. I use it as a foundation, because I don’t like the texture of regular foundation. For me, the color matches well, but my problem …
Avon Solutions AM/PM Face Cream
I am a fan of expensive and luxurious beauty items but I have also found some fantastic products from places such as Avon at low prices too. As I was running out of face cream for both the daytime and night time I decided to try this …
Tresemme Curl Hydration Lotion Creme
Most of my friends are product junkies like me. I have naturally curly African American hair that tends to suffer from dryness. I always seem to have a difficult time find products for my hair that will both keep it moisturized and define my curls without leaving …
Shu Uemura WR EX Activating Whitening Essence
Recently, with my terrible spots and gnarled skin which had made a meteoric spread all over my face, I have been dying for a quick and easy solution to a smooth spotless appearance! I’d been recommended to purchase this product, which was from a Japanese brand it was called …
Icool Blast Deodorant for Men
Icool Blast Deodorant is a bankable stick deodorant. If you are looking for a mild deodorant with a moisturizing effect on the skin, and does not irritate the underarm in any way, the Icool Blast deodorant should be great for you.
As for me, I shuttle between two deodorants, …
Olay Regenerist contouring thermal treatment
I am over forty years old, and when I heard that forty is the new thirty I started my search for skin care products that not only provided me with younger looking face skin, but is inexpensive on the wallet. I found Olay Regenerist contouring thermal treatment at …
Maybelline Super Stay 24hr Concealer in Medium Beige
Lately I have been experiencing serious frustration due to my dark under eye circles. These are newly acquired and it is driving me crazy. I really miss the days when I used to use just foundation all over my face and that was all I needed to …
BFTE Mineral Blush
Blush is something that I can’t live without now, but a few month ago, I would have passed it up for a mc Donald’s cheeseburger and fries any day, and I don’t even like their food very much at all, so it would have been a terrible waste, which …
Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Solutions Flat to Volume Shampoo
I had tried (and just reviewed) the Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Solutions Flat to Volume Shampoo 2 in 1 Plus Conditioner, and really liked it, but at the same time felt there could be a couple improvements to how well it worked for me and my particular tastes. My …
Lancome Soleil Premium BX SPF 30 Face Cream
The weather right now is really not safe. I noticed a different increase in the intensity of the heat caused by the sun. It doubles the threat of skin cancer and can cause faster deterioration of your skin. That is why protecting your face from UV rays is essential. …
Bath & Body Works Sea Island Cotton Soap, Sanitizer, & Lotion
Bath & Body Works Sea Island Cotton hand soap, sanitizer, & lotion are all great products that smell wonderful. I purchased all three at the same time as a set, and will definitely buy all three again in the future. This set of matching products all have a light …
Satin Shimmers Creamy Eyecolor
It’s a good purchase. I really like this because it blends so easily and it is very versatile too. I can use it to alternate between a natural or smoky look. It has a good staying power because when I accidentally touch or itch my eyelid it doesn’t come …
Styli-Style Liquid Waterproof Eye Liner
I really cannot resist it when there are makeup sales, especially those of Cherryculture.com. So when they were having a huge sale on their site, I immediately hoarded makeup from NYX and Styli-style.
I bought the Styli-Style Liquid Waterproof Eye Liner. It comes in neat black pen, with a felt …
Johnson and Johnson’s Baby Oil Lite
I am totally raving about this baby oil. I have excessively dry skin on my face and body and so a lotion really won’t provide as much moisture as I need. I have tried other body oils but they are either too, well, “oily”. This J&J Baby Oil Lite …
L’Oreal Telescopic Mascara
I’m not a make-up junkie. But once in a while I like to wear mascara. I have tried lots of mascaras in the past, most of them if they are not hypoallergenic, I cannot wear. When I saw that The L’Oreal Telescopic Mascara was tested under ophthalmologic control and …
Nivea Whitening Body Lotion
I used Nivea Whitening Body Lotion in the past. I bought it simply because I got curious. I saw it being advertised on television. Anyway, I usually applied this lotion on my skin after shower and at night time. I put ample amount on dark areas like my knees …
Acne Free Severe Acne Treatment System
I recently purchased the Acne Free Severe Acne Treatment System. I have the most stubborn acne ever. I thought that it would go away after my teenage years but I still get breakouts all of the time. This frustrates me to no end and means that I spend a …
Uriage Eau Thermale Hyseac K18 skin care product
I find some French skin care products really nice. Most of them work well on my skin. One of them is Uriage Eau Thermale Hyseac K18. This skin care product is for oily skin and blocks pores. What drove me to purchase this product was what I read from its …
L’Oreal HiP Studio Secrets Professional Metallic Shadow Duo
I decided that I wanted to get some eyeshadow to amplify my eyes. I had alredy been using great mascara and liquid eye liner. I wanted to create a smoky eye for a sexy club look. I decided to buy the L’Oreal Paris HiP Studio Secrets Professional Metallic Shadow Duo …
Derma E Retexturizing Body Lotion
I already had a body lotion I loved; Jergens with 93% natural ingredients. This does a fabulous job of moisturising my skin all over my body, but what it doesn’t do is take away the really rough scaly bits around my knee’s, elbow’s and ankles. I was wondering what …
Oil of Olay Age Defying Revitalizing Eye Gel
The gradual appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around my eyes was indeed making feel quite worried and tensed. Though I admit that it was a natural skin aging process for a person in her early forties, I only wished to slow down this ageing process so that my …
Mayfair Armpit Cream
Having dark underarms has been my problem ever since I turned into an adolescent. I tried using all the roll-on deodorants out in the market like Rexona, Silka, Secret, etc. But I just found my underarm getting darker and darker with every use. Some people told me that calamansi …
Benefit Smokin’ Eyes Sexy Eye and Brow Makeover Kit
I think I am like many women who just occasionally get bored with their beauty products and need a change. I have been on a mission to simplify my makeup, and have been looking for items that have multiple purposes and/or come in a small container so that I …
Arm & Hammer Ultra Max Antiperspirant Deodorant
I recently tried Arm & Hammer Ultra Max Anitperspirant Deodorant. I can tell you honestly that I could not be more disappointed! Basically it just does not work. I am not a person that has a problem being overly sweaty or smelly, in fact quite the opposite, so for …
Neutrogena Wave Duo power cleanser
Back during Christmas while I was shopping around Target and Wal-Mart for specials and little stocking stuffers, I found that there was a special Neutrogena Wave Duo package. First off all, until I saw that I didn’t even know Neutrogena had come out with a new Wave. The package …
Revlon New Makeup Eraser Pen
I have always loved buying new kinds of cosmetic products that happen to appeal to me and also fits into my budget. Though most of the times it is usually a new soap bar or a new skin care cream, I always try picking up those things …
Body Tonic Firming Moisturiser by Garnier
I’ve been on a mission since hitting my 40’s to really start taking care of my skin, not only on my face but my entire body. Having had 3 children I am extremely lucky to have not suffered any excess skin or stretch marks but I …
Johnson’s hair minimising body lotion
I bought Johnson’s hair minimising body lotion to minimise the amount i shave my legs (because i think i shave way too much.)
