I have always been careful with sun screen product. I used to believe the higher the SPF the better the product but I was very wrong. I once purchased a sun block with SPF above 100 and it caused me rashes on the skin. It appears that the higher …

Way back when I was a giddy adolescent, my mom who happens to travel a lot always made it a point to bring home a bottle of my favorite scent. I grew up with Victoria’s Secret lotions all around me and my sister’s bedroom and bathroom. The scents were …

This past spring I decided to seek help so I …

To complement the moisturizing shampoo I got from Human Heart Nature, I thought it’s just apt to stick to the hair care line, among which the avocado and seaweed moisturizing conditioner. After all, the moisturizing shampoo was sulfate-free, so it’s hard to assert that positive results would happen …

Pantene’s 3 minute miracle deep conditioner was one of the many ‘at-home treatments’ I’ve tried in the past. It does sound quite tersely overstated with its claim of being a miracle hair product. The idea of going to the salon is just another hefty errand that can …

Too Faced Absolutely Invisible Powder is pressed powder in a cute, black packaging that figuratively has cutesy and trendy written all over it. The sleek shiny top portion of the clam style packaging has the Too Faced logo surrounded by pink swirls. Though I like the unusual size and …

Facial products can be quite expensive in the long run that when you’re running low on funds you’ll eventually be forced to switch to an alternative for the mean time. Naturally, you’ll want something you can trust to do somehow just as well. This is how I viewed and …

I have been using bust-firming cream for years. I have tried many different brands, with mixed results. I use the creams more for a preventative measure than to reverse and drooping and sagging that I already have. I am in my mid thirties and pregnancy has left …

I love my Burts Bees products, and just the name of this one, Burt’s Bees Line Smoothing Eye Creme with Pomegranate & Magnolia, was enough to have me scrambling to try it. I usually go for the eye creams that are designed to reduce the appearance of circles, and …

I love this lip gloss! Or should I say lip glass? I was shopping in Macy’s and I saw a make up artist applying make up on this one beautiful lady. Her lip color just happened to catch my eye, and I went over and complimented her on her …

When I first purchased the MagiX face perfector primer is came in a …

I’ve been wearing prescriptive contact lenses since I was 18 and have had my fair share of experiences with various brands of contact lenses and contact solutions. There has only been one brand of contact solution that I prefer over all else because it works well and is sensitive …

Honestly, I didn’t know that there was a …

As I have gotten older, and spend more time with my hands in water, the health of my nails has taken a nosedive. I never had particularly strong nails. Although they will grow long easily, they also split and break even more easily. For the past few …

I was greatly disappointed after purchasing this product. I have curly hair and it tends to become very dry and frizzy. I was so excited when I saw that Burt’s offer a deep hair conditioner because I’m always in search of something that will give my hair a lot …

I tried this shampoo upon the recommendation of my sister, who’s not very finicky when it comes to hair vanities. They always find it questionable that I spend so much money on shampoos. Okay. I surrendered this time. I also saw it an opportunity to …

Having recently watched both Iron Man and The Dark Knight again I began to think about the two movies. I am convinced that one of them is the best comic book movie ever made, the only question is which.
That is where it becomes hard. Both movies have nearly …

My sister gave this to me, and now I figured why she had to give it away. At first, I really liked this product. It’s got a pretty packaging. I tried it on and it was easy to apply. It went fairly smooth and gave me the dramatic finish …

I needed an organic salt scrub to help exfoliate my rough dry skin. I ended up trying the FarmHouse Fresh Fine Sea Salt Scrub in Sweet Cream and I have to say it was very expensive, but so worth it. My skin is silky soft and smooth and looks …

TRESemme produces some of my favorite shampoo and conditioning products. I can’t afford (or am not willing to buy) more expensive shampoos and conditioners such as Nexxus, and honestly I feel that TRESemme is almost as good.
THE PRICE:
At around $7.00 a bottle, I’d say that it is middle-of-the-road …

For handling fine-line wrinkles I tried out the Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Night Cream at bedtime. I noticed that I was getting those little, fine-line wrinkles around my eyes, on my neck and around my lips. I am happy with how I look but I certainly would not mind …

I came across this product much by accident. I wear eye liner just about everyday, and usually I buy the Maybelline brand. I had been using the same brand for so long that it was merely out of habit that I purchased the same eye liner every …

As a 53 year old woman, who has lived in a harsh climate for most of her lifetime, I was hesitant to buy this product for several reasons: first of all, it costs three times what I normally pay for moisturizer. Secondly, I never wear foundation.
Nevertheless, over the …

I originally purchased my Tutti Frutti lipgloss online and, when I opened it up, I thought at first I had made a mistake. It was so neon pink in the tube. However, although Chanel’s lipgloss in Tutti Frutti appears to be a scary bright, unwearable pink in …

I have known this Avon Simply Pretty Clear Mascara since I was high school way back twelve years ago but I haven’t tried it before because I am not fond of using cosmetics during that time. Since I am already putting on make-ups and some cosmetics today, when I …

Paloma Picasso’s perfume, of the same name, was one of my mum’s favourite scents and it suited her, but I do not like it on myself personally as it is not to my taste in perfumes. It is far too strong for me and actually makes me feel …

I’ve never owned an eyelash curler, so considering this would be the first one I’m purchasing, I made sure I was going to buy something worth it, nothing cheap and flimsy, that wouldn’t last. I’ve kind of gotten tired of using mascara and wearing false eyelashes on other days, …

I’ve heard the brand Shiseido being mentioned a lot while talking to ladies about skin care, and I didn’t know what was really the buzz about it, and why it was so popular. So I Googled the brand name one day, and I found out that Shiseido is a …
