Nutra Nail Maximum 10 Strengthener

Sally Hansen Lipcolor Sealer
It is really difficult for a professional woman to keep her make-up as flawless as she put it on that morning all day long. Touch-ups are a necessary part of her schedule, and it is this constant primping and preening that I do not enjoy. I am obsessive about …
Nivea Body Whitening Body Lotion, 400ml

Maybelline Mega Plush Mascara (Non-Waterproof)
Maybelline’s Volum’Express Mascara Line has a new addition called Mega Plush mascara. What first caught my eye about this product was its packaging. It’s a vibrant, blue-teal color with shiny, deep purple writing. I’m sure it was meant to be an alternative packaging to Maybelline’s The Falsies mascara. It’s …

Japonesque Pink Heated Mini Eyelash Curler

Coppertone Gradual Tan Sunless Tanning Lotion
I loved Coppertone’s gradual tanning lotion. Like it says in the name, its a gradual tan, so you don’t go from being ghost white to tan in a day (that’s just weird) and you can also control how tan you get.
