It seems these days to be virtually compulsory for cosmetics companies to plaster absurdly long names across their products’ bottles and jars. By the ludicrously inflated standards of some of these, Boots’ Tea Tree & Balm Mint shampoo is almost the epitome of conciseness and restraint! Of course, I would …

Every now and then I take great joy in getting a manicure. I particularly enjoy getting French tips as a part of that manicure but at about fifty dollars ($50.00) plus a tip the manicure can get expensive. After the economy crashed I was forced to look …

A week or so ago, after running out of my Clinique mascara, I ran to my local CVS and purchased Covergirl’s Nature Luxe Mascara. I was sort of leery initially, knowing the tendencies of cheap mascaras. Mascaras that clump, flake, and are impossibly difficult to remove are my worst …

I’m a huge fan of the H2O line, and I firmly believe that H2O produces the best moisturizers on the market today. Part of the effectiveness is in the gel effect. While heavier creams might look they should work better, they don’t. These gels are quickly absorbed and the moisture …
