Bliss Foot Patrol
I hate the idea of using one of those pumice stones to treat the dry, rough and calloused skin on the bottom of my feet, even though they work wonders, because I hate the thought of those dirty little bars sitting in my bathtub for weeks on end, getting …
PedEgg
I’m one of those girls that goes barefoot (or at least in flip flops) all summer long and that definitely takes a tole on my feet. If anyone else has thick, calloused and cracked heels, you know what I’m talking about.

Too Faced Primed Poreless Face Primer

Clinique Three Step System
I recently purchased the Clinique Three Step System. It is basically three products to treat the skin by cleansing, exfoliating, and then moisturizing it. There are so many big claims that this system makes, including that your skin is supposed to look fresher even after the first day and …
Pantene Medium Thick Hairspray

Bare Escentuals
Bare Escentuals is the best mineral foundation that I have found. I have tried other mineral foundations from makeup lines found in Wal-greens. I was not impressed. They all seemed to leave my skin chalky, pallid looking. I have seen the TV commercial and the advertising of BE. I …

Zoya Robyn Nail Polish

Estee Lauder Hydra Complete
I usually don’t open my wallet wide enough to purchase name-brand beauty products, but there are a few names that I trust to offer superior merchandise and every now and then, I’ll find myself sniffing around the counter of one of these more illustrious world-renown brands.
One of these is Estee …

I bought Kojie San soap from Mercury Drugstore, two boxes for only 50 pesos, or around US$1.15. I got attracted to buying it because of the geisha illustration on the white box. In the poster ad located on the shelf, this soap promises to bring out whiter skin, as …
Decleor Skin Care Range
I bought a range of Decleor skin care products to try for the first time. The set I bought included cleansing water, a daily face moisturiser, a night balm, eye contour gel, and a tinted concealer.

Montagne Jeunesse Fudge Sauna Face Mask Sachet

My Desire by Victoria’s Secret Hand and Body Cream

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 …
Lush Ultimate Shine Shampoo Bar

Maybelline Lash Stiletto Mascara
When I saw the name of this new mascara from Maybelline I couldn’t help but laugh because it seems like the cosmetic companies are finally running out of things to name their products. I guess it happens, but I can see why they decided to name the latest …
Schick Quattro Disposable Razors For Women

Dior Addict lipstick
I can say that I’m much of a lipbalm / lipgloss person. Perhaps I don’t think I’m too vain with my lips as long as it’s moisturized. One day I got curious about buying something new or maybe I’m such an impulse-buyer that I ended up buying this lipstick. …
Cream Silk Best Ever Reshape Standout Straight Conditioner

One thing girls really hate is unwanted hair in some areas of the body. I have thick hair so I worry about it a lot. That is the very reason why I bought Epilin Wax Hair Remover. It cost me about about Php200.00 or $4-5 for 200g.
What I loved …

Bonne Bell Black Eye liner

Vichy Cellebiotic Night Compensating and Regenerating Balm
