Penshoppe Fruity Pout Lip Jelly in Strawberry
The Product
Strawberry shade is a transparent red color that just gives a hint of reddish tint to lips.
The container is a 10-gram plastic squeeze tube with a slant-tip applicator.
This has a sweet strawberry scent but I did not detect any taste to it.
This has indeed a jelly-like consistency that …
Milani 3D Glitzy Glamour Gloss in Stylish (42)
I don’t usually like makeup that is too glittery because I don’t want to look like a twelve year old who is first starting off experimenting with makeup. I think I’m too old to be wearing things that are extremely sparkly, especially in lipglosses because generally they look really …
The Body Shop Nature’s Minerals Eye Color in Radiant Granite
I don’t have a strong affinity for mineral based eye shadows because of the excessive shimmer. The highlighted look around the eyes certainly brings a lift but there’s a point wherein ‘twinkling’ peepers no longer pass my finicky standards. I had heard last year about a mineral …
Murad Clean Scene Skincare Line
I recently decided that I did not want to spend as much money on acne products. Though I loved Proactiv, I did not love the price. That is why I recently purchased the Murad Clean Scene Skincare Line from Sephora. I have seen advertisements for it in pretty much …
Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Frizz Control
I have very fine, wavy hair that’s past my shoulders, and I have always had trouble with it being frizzy and unmanageable. I’ve tried straightening it, deep conditioning it, using frizz serum, and everything I try seems to create new problems.
Then I got a free sample of Pantene …
Burt’s Bees Radiance Day Cream

This scrub comes in an attractive peach coloured tube and I find it very good on my skin. The scrub itself is also peach in colour, with visible granules on the surface which give the exfoliating effect on the skin. Normally scrubs seem to be laborious to apply on …
Sunsilk Shampoo
I’ve been using Sunsilk shampoos since I was a kid and there’s nothing really special about this product except its very affordable price. Sunsilk is one of the major shampoo brands here in the Philippines and been around for more than 20 years now. As a consumer of this …
Ambi Bodycare Soft & Even Stretchmark Diminishing Body Oil
A lot of women have stretch marks and they tend to be very self-conscious about this fact. Due to an extremely fast growth spurt during puberty, I too have stretch marks. I have tried every natural remedy that has been suggested online to remove them and nothing has worked. …
L’oreal UV perfect
L’oreal UV perfect (XL Block) is a really good cosmteic cream, from all the creams I have used so far. The best thing is that this cream is for antidullness. I have some pimple problems which occurs now and then. After applying this fluid protector cream, my …
Air Stocking Bronze
I love to have some color in my skin and hide some of the minor flaws. I found Air Stocking Bronze and decided to give it a try. Now, I can’t imagine ever not using this product for bronzing my skin.

Soft and Dri Deodorant
This deodorant is pretty good overall. I bought it about a week ago at the dollar store. I like it overall. It’s not as good as secret but it is pretty good. It was cheap, only a dollar. It really does go on your skin softly. It also for …
Sexy Curves Full Volume and Curves Mascara by Rimmel London

Fasio International, Creamy Moisture Lipstick - 861 Cherry Tint

Noxzema Original Deep Cleansing Cream
I hadn’t used this product in years, and I was surprised they made this in the travel size. It was small enough to travel with and cheap enough to buy. This is the only reason I tried it. I figured I needed a new product to make my skin …
Mary Kay Mineral Eye Color Moonstone
Honestly, I do not know anything about Eye color, what I know is Eye liner. I do not put eye color in the office because it is quite obvious that I am wearing make up. However, when I checked on my face one time in the mirror, I saw …
Rimmel Scandaleyes Show Off Mascara in Black
I like to try out lots of different mascaras as I have reasonably decent eyelashes anyway so am never particularly drawn in by promises of lengthening or volume for day to day wear. I purchased Rimmel’s Scandaleyes Show Off Mascara after hearing good reports about it, and also …
MAC Lustreglass in WONDERSTRUCK (A28)
I’ve heard so many good things about the MAC range of lipglosses that I simply had to give it a go, despite not being all too big a fan on glosses. I simply do not like my lips looking like I’ve tucked into a mega oil fest for dinner. …

Pink Body Freshening Mist
I was doing my usual catalogue shopping at Victoria’s Secret, and I came across a product that sounded like something I could really use-if it worked the way it claimed to. Pink Body Freshening Mist was described as a refreshing spray that contained odor fighting ingredients that would —˜freshen …
Suave Firming Lotion

My last trip …
Dove Moisture Milk Face Wash
Everyone must have heard about Dove products. They vary from Dove face wash to Dove shampoo. I was attracted to this product after viewing the commercial on TV. I did not immediately rush to try it because it was a little costly for me (I was a student, a …

Estee Lauder Advance Night Repair Anti Wrinkle Serum

Jane Endless Eyes Liquid Eye Liner
I bought this eyeliner in Charcoal - a dark gray, slightly metallic color.
THE PRICE:
This eyeliner costs about $7.00, once sales tax was factored in. Eyeliner is one of the things I’m willing to pay a little bit more for, but $7.00 for metallic eyeliner isn’t bad. Most metallic eyeliners …
