St Ives Apricot Scrub
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 …

I travel very often and I also straighten my hair daily. This combination can often cause a great deal of stress because traveling with all of my straightening tools is sometimes not possible. I have been looking for a more portable straightening iron for months and finally I purchased …

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion
I am a person with very dry skin especially on my feet and hands. I’ve used many moisturizing lotions for dry skin, some do not work at all, and some would work for the first couple of days and then it would not work anymore which means back to …
Eskinol Ice Pore Therapy Facial Toner
This is my second bottle of Eskinol Skin Therapy Ice Poretherapy Facial Toner but I don’t see any changes on my pores yet.
It claims to “instantly minimize pore size” which you can see written right in front on the bottom part of the bottle.
I have large visible pores on …

Maxi Peel Astringent
I had a very bad experience about Maxi-Peel Astringent. My friend introduces me this product and I just feel so convince because I was able to see the result in her. I bought a big bottle of it, for a long lasting usage. The second time I use it …
Stila Black Diamond Mascara
Prior to experiencing good mascaras I was in constant search of a good mascara. There was one time that I was looking for a good brand of mascara because the last one that I was using was rather traumatic to use. This certain mascara caught my attention. It did …

Herbal Essences Totally Twisted Shampoo

e.l.f. Professional Nail Polish Remover Pads

This shampoo is very good for those who are having dandruff or dry and scaly scalp. My skin is dry and naturally I have the dandruff, so I use this shampoo. Head and shoulders shampoo is an effective product to keep away the dandruff, but it has …

Make up is suppose to make you look beautiful. This is one of the greatest creations that a woman has to be thankful about. More often than not, too much foundation would make you look old. There are various reasons why we we tend to cover our face with …
Urban Decay Surreal Skin Mineral Makeup
I love mineral makeup, it’s definitely better than liquid foundation. I’ve always had problems with liquid foundation, either it was to cakey, too heavy, too oily, etc but with every liquid foundation that I’ve tried just didn’t work well on my skin. I’m so happy that mineral makeup was …
EOS Lip Balm Smooth Sphere Strawberry Sorbet
I love strawberries so much that I was in Walmart last week and saw the EOS Lip Balm Smooth Sphere Strawberry Sorbet Lip Balm and had to get some. In addition, the lip balm comes in this cool pink sphere like container and I love the color pink, but …

Rimmel London Glam Eyes Lash Flirt
This mascara is nothing special. I have it in “Kohl Black”, and I think that is my favorite part of the mascara. I think that’s pretty sad. Anyways, the color is exrtemely black! Very “pigmented”.
Well this claims to lengthen lashes by 80%, and I think that’s really just a …

University Medical AcneFree Sport Clear 2-Go Clear Skin System
I think I would consider this University Medical AcneFree Sport Clear 2-go Clear Skin System to be a pretty heavy duty acne treatment program for your skin. I haven’t had serious acne issues since I was a teenager which was unfortunately way too many years ago to count, but …
True Blue Spa Peel Off Blackberry Mask
While shopping at Bath and Body Works over the weekend and finding there was a big clearance sale, I saw that there were some masks on clearance. I love using any kind of mask on my face since they always seem to clean and detoxify my skin. I picked …
Borghese Fango Active Mud for Face and Body
I used this mud mask about once a month or twice a month. This helps to shrink my pores and really helps keeping my skin looking refreshed and evens out my skin of any redness and dry skin which is a big deal for me because I have nasal …
Aveeno Ultra-Calming Daily Moisturizer SPF 15
I have tried out the Aveeno body lotion and I really enjoyed it because of the great moisture it gave my skin, so I thought I’d try out the facial moisturizer after I ran out of my Clinique one. It was around $16 which is pretty pricey for a …
Tria Laser Hair Removal System
Summertime is quickly approaching which means that it is almost time for me to once again put on my swimsuit and head to the beach. Normally, I prefer to shave the unwanted hair that is on my body since it is less painful that other methods (waxing and …
L’Oreal Paris Elvive Sublime Curls Shampoo NEW

Cake Beauty Milk Made Body Smoothing White Sugar Scrub
There is no other product I’ve tried that has this inviting a scent, as the Cake Beauty Milk Made Body Smoothing White Sugar Scrub. I knows that’s quite a name, but it lives up to it on almost every level possible. The first and main reason I bought it …

L’Oreal Infallible Makeup
I first came across L’Oreal Infallible: Never Fail Makeup at my family’s house. My sister had it out and I decided to try it. I did and I loved it! First of all, this is a light foundation. It goes on easily and blends right in. Also this comes …
Skinfood Lettuce and Cucumber Emulsion
My oily skin had turned me into a cynic against certain kinds of moisturizers. I reacted similarly upon hearing a thing about skinfood’s emulsions. Of the many products skinfood has to offer, their emulsions piqued my curiosity the most, because I’ve never heard of such a thing. …
Bath and Body Works Moisturizing Shampoo
I got a bottle of the Bath and Body Works Moisturizing Shampoo from a friend as a birthday gift and I absolutely love it. After a few uses of the shampoo, my hair smelled so nice all the time and it gained this great silky feel to it. She …
Morrisons Pearl Shine & Shimmer Lip Balm

Korres Anti-Acne Mask Cinnamon and Natural Clay
Part of the anti-acne regimen that I take is to use an anti-acne face mask. This practice is not just applicable during the times when your problems with your skin is so severe but is even on ordinary days. In my previous review on another face mask brand, I …
Almay Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover Pads
I haven’t really tried any makeup products by Almay, I’ve always been busy with other brands but I always have been interested in a few of their products I just never got around to getting any of them until I bought this Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover Pads by …
Etta’s Bleaching Cream
Etta’s Bleaching Cream is VERY EFFECTIVE but it can be very painful. Etta’s Bleaching Cream, or some would call it Etta’s Bleaching Powder is a very effective way to whiten. HOWEVER, it can be quite uncomfortable to use.
Etta’s Bleaching Cream seems a little complicated to use. Mixing the powder …
Clinique Different Lipstick in Plum Brandy
I don’t remember when I got this Clinique lipstick in Plum Brandy. It was probably in one of those Clinique bonuses that I love to get with a purchase every couple of months. I love to take advantage of those GWP (gift with purchase) promotions, first of all because …
Jason Naturals Dandruff Relief Shampoo
Last summer was the worst because it was hot and humid here in the place where I live. I would sweat a lot especially on the scalp. Some time ago I noticed that my hair was getting itchier and itchier that I needed to scratch my head all the …
Dr. Blaine’s Complete Scar Care Treatment
I’ve tried a few scar treatment kits in the last year, mostly because I’m accident prone and have ended up with a good deal of unnecessary scars that I can’t even brag about because they aren’t cool in the least because I got them purely by being clumsy. My …
Wet N Wild Eyeliner
Wet N Wild eyeliner is not my favorite eyeliner by far. But they are, in my opinion, the best one-dollar eyeliner that you can buy. The pigmentation looks great when you swatch it on your hand, but as soon as you move to the more delicate eye skin it …
Very Vernis Nail Polish by Bourjois
Bourjois Very Vernis Nail Polish was rather expensive when it first came out and so I never bothered with it at first. Then the price seemed to come down and I finally bought a bottle from my local beauty store for £4.95, which is 9.20 US dollars. However, recently …
Artistry Pore Cleansing Masque
The Artistry Pore Cleansing Masque gets a rating of 8 out of 10 in my opinion. The first thing that I will mention is probably something that will scare some people away from using this, but I think it’s important to note. This mask really tightens up the face …
Pantene Pro-V Anti-Dandruff Shampoo
My husband has battled the war against dandruff for years now. He has been complaining about the white flakes that show up against his dark colored clothes and his dry and itchy scalp. He tried everything. He even went to a salon to have a scalp treatment in the …
Monea Power Dose Hair Repair
Problems with hair no more. I was in college when hair rebonding became a trend. You see celebrities endorsing shampoos projecting their flawless hair, and you wish you have one. After sometime did I noticed that my hair is starting to become dry and lifeless, so I was advised …
Derma E Very Clear Spot Blemish Treatment
I am a fan of spot correctors, and while I found a lot of acne spot correctors which worked pretty well, I like Derma E Very Clear Spot Blemish Treatment a lot because it did work, gradually and in a consistent basis. It did not lose its effectivity just …
