Bod Facial Exfoliant, Gentle & Harmonising
Lately I have been very much into exfoliation. Be it for the body or for the face. The recent obsession has been triggered by the extremely bad condition of my skin due to the prolonged neglect post pregnancy as I had been too caught up with my first …
Got2Go Poweder’Ful
I heard about this product from a friend who had tried it recently. It’s a powder product that you apply to the roots of your hair to add texture and give your hair volume and lift. My hair is pretty long, but it is quite layered so …
Avene Eau Thermale Light Hydrating Cream
This face cream was recommended to me by the beauty consultant at the drug store. I asked her to find me a day cream that would work for my combination skin. It usually is normal, but at times it gets dry and irritated. This was her first choice and …
Dove Energy Glow Soap
This soap smells nice and it opens my nostrils and makes me think of fields and flowers, but I can’t use the soap. It causes me to develop a rash in my private area. I bought the four-bar pack from walmart just to test it out and I am …
Lakme Aqua Shine Lip Color in Scarlet
I bought this product eight months ago when I was at Spencers Department Store in Mumbai. The sales lady offered me to try this and at first I was skeptical so I told her if they have a bright and glossy red in color so she gave me this …
Short and Sassy Texturizing Glaze
Although I am an African American woman, my relationship with products specifically made for black hair is not good. I find that most of the products leave my natural curly hair feeling dry and oily. I do not like to waste my money on products that contain …
Alberto V05 Soft Moulding Wax for Hair Styling
I have never been very good at styling my hair and it does need a bit of work to make it look half alright. It is wavy - but not always in a flattering way - and can look a bit fluffy when I first wash it. …
MAC Iridescent Loose Powder in Silver Dusk
Well, every moment seems to belong to a cosmetic brand, I don’t know why but I’m coveting for Mac products as of late. It’s slowly becoming my flavor of the moment. Lately, I’m loving this Iridescent loose powder from MAC which I bought thinking it was just …
CoverGirl Wetslicks Fruit Spritzers Plum Splash
This is a great product that not only looks good , but is actually good for your lips as well. Over time your lips will actually be in better condition if you use this product daily. I love how yummy it is too. This is one of the best …
La Mer The Cleansing Foam
Well, I was so prepared to love this one, a chic and very convenient packaging. So, my experience trying this cleanser started out wonderfully. I loved the tube packaging because it was sanitary. What was so great too for me, it was a huge tube of product really economic …
Garnier Fructis Style Soft Hair Cream
I originally bought the tub of Garnier Fructis Style soft curl cream for myself but ended up using it on my sister instead. It is a good product for short thinner hair. I have very long thick hair that is very curly and the cream worked but …
St. Ives Mineral Clay Firming Mask
I am always in search of a good facial product which can help me with my blackheads and zits. I used quite a lot of them already, and some of them were actually pretty good, like St. Ives Mineral Clay Firming Mask which I used last summer. That summer, my …
Watson Moisturizing Lotion
I trusted so many lotions with my skin from the very first time I became aware of using lotion. Mostly what my mother use is what I use since we have the same skin. What she trusted is what I do too. Just to try other new lotions available …
Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Deep Conditioner in Moist
What I’ve realized with most products is that they claim to ‘moisturize’ your hair, but you have to use their whole line of products in order to get the desired results. And why spend money on a shampoo, conditioner, hair mask treatment, and etc if there’s only a 50/50 …
GILLETTE CUSTOM PLUS RAZORS
If you are like my family, you probably use disposable razors. We have for years. We just started using Gillete’s Custom Plus razors, and they really are different. These have the povoting head, to make all those curves and corners easier to do, smoothly. The ultra grip is …
Clarins White Plus Repairing Whitening Night Cream
I dislike this night cream mainly because of its effect immediately when you apply it. The most common benefit you derive from using a night cream is the moisturizing effect on your skin at night. This was well delivered by this night cream however my skin tends to get …
Emami Gold, Turmeric Skin Cream with 24K Gold
I normally use the Olay Regenerist serum and a sun block. Usually this is enough for my oily skin but sometimes I feel the need of an additional moisturizer especially in the windy months when just the serum is not moisturizing enough.
I wanted to try something Ayurvedic (Traditional …
L’Oreal Elvive shampoo Nutri —“ Gloss
I was reading the reviews on reviewstream.com about L’Oreal Elvive shampoos and in one of them a reviewer wrote that once you try that shampoo you will never go back to any other shampoo. Well, I can not say if this is going to be the truth for me …
Goody Ouchless Hair Elastics #09408
I’m sure some out there could relate with me that rebonded hair demands a lot of discipline, even for something as mundane as hair, to maintain its straightness. It is akin to caring a crisp cotton blouse you don’t want to ever touch to cause crinkles to the …
NYX HD Studio Concealer
My biggest makeup struggle is probably finding a good cruelty-free concealer. There’s a few really good high end concealers that are cruelty-free, but they don’t last long, 2 months max. And I really don’t want to spend $30 on the concealer that I’m gonna have to buy again in less …
Avon Colour Rich Mega Impact Lipstick
This is quite a new Lipstick out in Avon. I buy all my Lipsticks from there, but to be honest they all seem much the same. They work well, but they all just do the same job in my view.
The normal price for this Lipstick is £8.50 but I …
Spa101 Foot Spa and Waxing Salon
After a hard day’s work, I always love to shift into rest and relaxation mode. I love massages and going to the spa to bask in the Zen surroundings. Of course, there would be days when going to the spa is far from reality so I just go to …

Secret Deodorant
Secret is my favorite band of deodorant and probably always will be. It’s the only one that my mother ever buys and uses. It works really well, it goes on clear and it smells good. The price isn’t too bad either, it’s not expensive. Whenever I use it I …
Givenchy Le Prismissime Visage
This is one of my favorite from Givenchy. I sometimes spoil myself by indulging in one of the higher end product that I usually keep away from buying. Givenchy’s one of the brand that I truly trust is a value for money kind of product. I couldn’t find any …
The Face Shop Fragrant Nail Enamel Remover - Pink
The Face Shop is one of the best Korean cosmetic brands around. It is very accessible as there are a lot of branches in different malls. One of their best products for me is their Nail Enamel Remover —“ Pink which costs Php99 for a 100ml bottle. …
St. Ives Swiss Formula Moisturizing Body Wash
I think that most people who take showers enjoy using one type of body wash or another. I hate using bar soap and probably enjoying using body washes more than the average joe. I have purchased tons of different body washes and have been impressed my many. I have …
Avon Dry Nail Enamel Strips - Instant Manicure
Avon Dry Nail Enamel Strips; I love this product. Today is day 11 and my nails still look great after doing housework, some light shoveling, and washing the car. I found that this nail polish was stronger than most as it didn�t chip. The only thing I noted was …
L’Oreal Colour Riche Anti-Aging Serum Lipstick
I have been buying many anti-aging makeup and skincare products lately because I guess I am getting to the age where I should be concerned about aging skin. I bought a new lipstick, called L’Oreal Colour Riche Anti-Aging Serum Lipstick, which claims to fill in surface lip lines and …
Gillette Fusion Power Battery Powered Shaving system
My husband has used a Gillette razor for 15 years now. He has just used the same handle that you could add any Gillette blade to and he had been pretty happy with it. I ended up buying the gillette fussion power razor because one day I …
Lancome’s Juicy Tube Lipgloss
I’ve heard so many positive reviews about Lancome’s Juicy Tube lip gloss, that I just had to go and try it out for myself. Now I don’t really like spending a fortune on my lip glosses, because I’m the type to misplace and lose them! But I am a …
Aspirin and honey face mask
I first found out about this easy homemade face mask from a popular makeup tutor on youtube. At first i was a bit weary of the fact you would be using aspirin on your face because after all it’s meant for aches and pains right? Well… after watching michellephan’s …
Hortaleza Professional Hair Spa Treatment (hair mask)
Hair spas are an expensive indulgence. With a little preparation, you can now bring the spa to your own bathroom. I use a hair spa treatment once a week, massage it on my head slowly for a few minutes, cover my hair with hot towel, and then close my …
ASDA Hair Formulas Gloss & Shine Conditioner
I was looking for a good conditioner since I have noticed that staying in an air conditioned room for a day seems to dry up my hair. The quality of my hair seems to deteriorate as days passed by. While strolling down a grocery store’s beauty section, I noticed …
Sleek Storm i-Divine Palette
I purchased this on an impulse for £6.49 at my local Superdrug, which I am extremely glad I did because of the excellent value for money it gives you and also the quality of the palette. It works out at 54 pence per shade which one cannot argue with …
Clinique Fresh Bloom Allover Colour (Peony)
I was not much of a blush user in the past few years as my skin was still youthful and had a natural pinkish blush. However, I think that age has caught up to me in the past several months and I noticed that my skin does not …

Yes To Cucumbers Facial Cleansing Towelettes
One thing that I have learned about being busy, is that it is always a good idea for me to have facial cleansing towelettes in my purse to help freshen up during the day.
I normally use traditional baby wipes or Neutrogena towelettes but I was at Target one …
Schwarzkopf Live XXL Mystic Violet Hair Dye
Schwarzkopf Live XXL Mystic Violet Hair Dye. I was looking for a purple hair dye for a while at Christmas 2009. It was the first time I was dying my hair so I decided not to get it from the internet as I do with most things, but get …
Irish Spring bar soap
This green soap looks kind of funny. I understand that they want to use green to keep with the Irish theme but it still looks funny. The Irish Spring bar soap does have a very invigorating and fresh scent to it. I liked that it lathered …
Avon True Colour Eyeshadow Duo
I was lucky enough to get this product for free and I got to choose what colour that I wanted. In the last avon book if you bought a product from certain pages in the book then you got to choose something from a list of things for free. …
Avon Sensitive Bubble Bath
First of all I would say that I don’t think I would ever go out and buy a fragrance free bubble bath. So why am I reviewing it? I got a bottle of it for free and although this lay in my cupboard unopened for ages I decided to …
Nivea Visage Sparkling White Whitening Toner
This Nivea toner acts like a mild astringent that clarifies skin with continued use. I use it every night before going to sleep. I apply it on my face and neck. I’m a fan of Nivea products (I also use their deodorant) because of the mild ingredients used that …
Rimmel Wonder’Full Mascara with Argan Oil (Black)
Argan oil is a staple in my skin care routine but I didn’t expect to find a mascara enriched with this precious oil. When I first saw Rimmel Wonder’Full mascara, I didn’t want to purchase it as I believed that it will be too oily and it will not be …
Nivea for Men Silver Protect Dynamic Power Deodorant
I may not always bother too much about the names of cosmetic products, since as far as I can see they are, at least these days, now almost exclusively ridiculous or meaningless, and quite often both. However, Nivea for Men Silver Protect Dynamic Power Deodorant has SUCH a ludicrous …
Vitamin Schtick Lip Balm
I am a sucker for lip balms and lip glosses that are candy or soda flavored. You see them all the time in Drugstores, the Dr. Pepper flavored or Starburst flavored lip products that seem targeted toward much younger girls. Even though I am older and supposedly have more …
Expert Wear Defining Eyeliner in Black by Maybelline
For the most part I am a fan of Maybelline’s Expert Wear line of cosmetics. This product however is not one that I can say I would purchase again. I got this at Walgreen’s and paid about two dollars ($2.00) for it. I was drawn to the product partly …
Lancome Pore Expert Complete Pore Refiner
Well, I am one of those Asian women who’s unfortunate to have an oily skin. Having been into this type of skin is so hard to maintain cause dirt accumulates in the pores with the oil and there goes the growing of pimples which has been a problem of …
Yeast Gard Advanced
I bought this at Walmart for less than six dollars. It’s called “Yeast Gard Advanced” and it’s a homeopathic yeast infection treatment.
It comes with an applicator, and 10 suppositories. You only have to use it for 7 days, just like with Monistat 7, to treat …
