Kiehl’s Rare Earth Deep Pore Daily Cleanser
Everyday I come face to face with dirt, grime, dust, smog, and other pollutants around me. They give off toxins in the air, which get trapped in tiny pores on the face and later cause pimples, blockheads, whiteheads, warts, blemishes, and more facial skin problems. I wash my face …

China Glaze Evening Seduction Nail Polish
Lately I’ve been attracted to dark mauve like colors, I don’t know if it’s the sad weather that’s been getting to me, or what! But the dark color is something that I don’t usually do, usually I wear bright bold colors, that are super flash and sparkly, and really …

Dr. Sheffield’s ClearZit Acne Cream
A few years ago I remember having severe acne on my T-Zone area which resulted to severe redness and itchiness, and sometimes there would be white dots plaguing my acne, which of course were unpleasant. I tried a few spot correctors here and there but I decided that a …
Garnea Eye Roller
I would recommend the Garnea Eye Roller. Mornings often found me looking in the mirror and to my horror finding really bad, ugly bags under my eyes. They would not go away. I tried many products and concealers to no avail. I was very self conscious of them …

Maybelline The Colossal Volum’Express Mascara
This big bright yellow tube is what attracted me to the product, but nothing else about this mascara screams amazing or interesting. As a drugstore mascara, it does a decent job at both lengthening and adding volume to my very sad and thin eyelashes, and it hold the curl …

Down Under Naturals Nude Conditioner for Normal Hair
I had kept seeing this new conditioner called Nude at my local drug store. I was intrigued by it, especially as it sells itself as having 96% plant ingredients. It was usually being sold for $8.99CDN plus tax for a 325ml bottle, which was a bit too steep for …

Myra E Daily Sun Protect Facial Moisturizer
I’ve never owned and have never used a moisturizer. Ever. I always see my sister using a bunch of facial products, and would often see her moisturize her face every night before she goes to sleep. Compared to her, I was like the boyish type of girl who didn’t …
Aloe Vera Jelly
Aloe Vera gel is made from the leaves of a succulent plant. It’s supposed to help soothe your skin and help it heal faster. The reason I’ve read that it can heal skin quicker is that it increases blood flow to the wound. A lot of people swear by …

Smashbox Face & Body Brush #19
It’s interesting that Smashbox assigns numbers to their make-up brushes. I don’t think I have ever seen that with any other make-up company. I got this brush when it was being sold as part of a set that included the Fusion Soft Lights, I believe it was. The Fusion …

Revlon Multi Care Base + Top Coat
I used to use the OPI top coat, but for some reason, it started getting really thick and goopy so I decided it was time for a new one. The OPI topcoat was decent but it didn’t really impress me enough to spend another $8.50 on it, so I …
Suave Ocean Breese Shampoo
When it comes to washing my hair I only use shampoo that works and I have to say that this is one of them. I have been using it quite regularly for some time and I love it. One thing that I love about it is …
Artistry Exfoliating Sugar Body Scrub
I am not a major exfoliator and I’ve actually never exfoliated properly before using this product. It just didn’t seem of as much importance to me. I don’t really go out in the sun much and I try as much as possible to not get tanned. But this last …
American Beauty Boost Moisturizer
In my opinion, you never can have too many facial moisturizers and I recently picked up this product after hearing so many great things about it. My skin tends to be very dry. Sometimes it does not matter how expensive or raved about a product is, it …
Wet ‘n’ Wild Color Icon Palette in #249: Vanity
I recently purchased the Wet ‘n’ Wild Color Icon Palette in the shade #249: “Vanity.” I purchased this particular product for a weird reason. A younger cousin of mine wants to get into makeup and she knows that I am pretty knowledgeable about products so she asked me to …
China Glaze Midnight Mission Nail Polish

Frederic Fekkai Styling Gel

Garnier Skin Renew Miracle Skin Perfector B.B. Cream Medium/ Dark
Having heard all of the hype surrounding BB creams and their —˜miraculous’ abilities, I felt I needed to try one out. Being a make up junkie, my much-abused skin suffers its fair share of breakouts and blemishes. Reading about BB creams made me hope (again!) that this time I …
Bare Minerals Active Cell Renewal Night Serum
Bare Minerals always sends me a free sample with my regular shipment and my suprise this month was a sample of the Active Cell Renewal Night Serum. I found it majorly impressive.
It almost worked like magic from the first night. When …
Bath and Body Works Signature Collection Dancing Waters
I simply do not easily change my lotion. This is because my skin is too sensitive for any body cream. It is not only due to harsh ingredients that my skin reacts with but also the strong scent. Even if you would say that it is made from natural …
Ever Bilena Black Eyeliner
I have been using Ever Bilena’s Black Eyeliner ever since I learned how to use one, and I am very satisfied with what it does to my eyes.
I’ve tried several other eyeliners, but nothing beats Ever Bilena. I’m not a big fan of liquid eyeliners, so Ever Bilena’s black …

The Body Shop Olive Soap
My husband has extremely dry skin with eczema in many places. He has been through many soaps and body washes that have dried his skin out more or left him feeling like his skin was on fire after showers. At one …
Axe Detailer Shower Tool
I really wish companies like this would make sponges for women, because they have the right idea! Not every woman wants some fluffy pink nonsesne or scratchy feeling faux-natural sea sponge. We want real sponges that will really get us clean, and for too long we’ve been doing without …
Freeman Barefoot Creamy Pumice Foot Scrub

Back to Basics Raspberry Almond Reparative Conditioner
I recently purchased the Back to Basics Raspberry Almond Reparative Conditioner. As a disclaimer, I first need to explain that I am a huge conditioner girl. I know that a lot of people shy away from using a ton of conditioner because they are afraid that it will weigh …
Ulta Mineral Powder Eyeshadow- Gleam
I got this as part of a gift set last Christmas and have only gotten around to trying it recently. It appears to be designed as a knock off of that bare minerals stuff that was so popular a couple of years ago. There were several colors in the …
