Dove Anti-Aging Eye Cream
Dove Anti-Aging Eye Cream was not the good quality product that I have come to know other Dove products to be. After applying this product under my eyes, and around the outer edges, I found that it had a gritty, oily feel to it, and was especially not good …
Tarte FRXtion Lip Balm and Exfoliator

PERFECT WEAR Extralasting Liquid Foundation SPF 15
As a young teen, I used to wear my mothers ridiculously thick pancake makeup because it was, I felt, the only thing that would cover my blemishes. I grew up with oily skin and still have to deal with it on almost an hourly basis, and if I’m not …
Coast Hair and Body Wash Pacific Force
It’s nice to find products that have more than one function. Especially in the case of soaps and washes and lotions and shampoos and things like that. I have two teenage sons, and it’s hard enough to get them to remember to take a shower most days, much less …
Dior Skin AirFlash Spray Foundation
Every woman secretly wishes they could look like the airbrushed models on the interior of every fashion magazine. They want the professionally done makeup that makes every face look flawless no matter what. It turns out, Dior has made it possible to purchase one of the tools that makeup …
K2 Endurance Suncare SPF50
I bought K2 Endurance Suncare SPF50 a few months back as a sunscreen. I did not buy it before, but I bought it anyway because of the high SPF protection. Besides it only cost $10 which was not high, and it can last a long time weighing at 4 …
O.P.I. Holiday In Toyland Nail Lacquer

Body Shop Vit. E Lip Care
My lips were very dry and cracked due to the weather condition. It is winter here in Sydney. Few weeks ago, when I was in Manila for holiday, I bought a lip moisturizer from Body Shop. I told the sales lady that I need a lip …
Dove Body Wash
I decided to try Dove Body Wash when I saw it on sale at the grocery store for $1.00. I have used Dove soap in the past but I never tried the body wash, so since it was so cheap, I decided to give it a try. …
Bath & Body Works Works Japanese Cherry Blossom Body Cream
Okay, if I tell you this product is only good to be use as a decoration on your dressing table, what would you think about that? I will save you time by telling you that it is the only purpose of this bottle. I hated this one and I …
Philosophy Hope in a Jar Moisturizer
This is another great product from Philosophy. I have my love and hate relationship with this brand name. I have purchase a lot of their product after being hooked by their marketing tactic only to find them not working as greatly as advertised. However there are also days when my …
Urban Decay Eye Shadow Primer Potion
This is a review for the EyeShadow Primer Potion made by Urban Decay. On the box you will see that it says it is their number one selling product. Let’s just say I can absolutely see why! My skin complexion is oily by nature, and thus …
The Victoria’s Secret Lovespell Refreshing Body Mist
I have been an avid user of body scents since I was in high school since I totally enjoy a clean fresh scent during warm days. I started using Lovespell about two years ago when a friend of mine gave me a bottle as a christmas present. I …
Broadway Impress Manicure French Tip Press on Nails
Every now and then I take great joy in getting a manicure. I particularly enjoy getting French tips as a part of that manicure but at about fifty dollars ($50.00) plus a tip the manicure can get expensive. After the economy crashed I was forced to look …
John Varvatos Hydrating Face Moisturizer
I also purchased a moisturizer from John Varvatos after I have tried their facial wash. I am was impressed with the quality of their facial wash that is why I decided to buy this. Again, my complain is that this product is expensive. For 2.5 oz, it costs 65 …
The Face Shop nail and cuticle balm
I always had a dry cuticle so I try to bite them or even cut because I hate it. I hate seeing my hand that there is a white thing around my nails and every time I see it, I’ll bite it or get a nipper or nail cutter …
Nu Skin Creamy Hydrating Masque Nourishing Treatment
This is just one of the products I bought from the Nu Skin line, available online and (maybe) in your local beauty-oriented stores, but because I couldn’t find it anywhere, I ordered it online to try. At first glance, it’s just a plain white squeeze tube with a flip …
Clean and Clear Morning Burst
I have been using Clean and Clear Morning Burst on and off for over a year. From my previous experience I have found that Clean and Clear products work mainly by drying out my face. At first it may seem that they are getting rid of acne by making …
Revlon Midnight Swirl Lip Gloss
Product: Revlon Midnight Swirl Lip Gloss
My color pick: Sassy Sangria
I’m not a huge Revlon fan. When it comes to cosmetics, I like CoverGirl for foundation; Clinique for lip gloss; Victoria’s Secret for eyeshadow; and Maybelline for mascara. But I was intrigued by the new Revlon Midnight Swirl glosses, so …
Bion Face Tanner Home Tanning System
I absolutely fell in love with this tanning system. It was so unbelievably easy to use and worth every penny I paid for it. It came in handy between my tanning sessions. Whenever I don’t have the time to make a trip to the tanning salon, I can do …
Gatsby Mandom, Anti-Tightness Facial Wash
I have been using the MD Formulations Cleanser with Glycolic Acid and I do really like it. But I like to take a break from it sometimes just so I can enjoy a nice foamy cleanser once a while. The MD Formulations Cleanser requires be applying on dry …
Philosophy On A Clear Day Oil-Free Acne Spot Treatment
Early this year, I was struck with a severe case of acne. My zits were in deep red color, looked swollen, and were big. There were some white dots in the middle of my zits. I did not know what to do because they felt painful. I tried a …
Gillette Blue II Plus Razor
I was looking for that more expensive Gillette Razor variety, the one made up of metal handle. I was looking for Gillette Mach3 Turbo Razor but I could not find it in the supermarket. Instead, I was drawn to the blue green individually wrapped semi-disposable razors hanging in the counter. …
Max Factor 2000 Calorie Mascara
I heard so many great things about this mascara, but I didn’t believe them until I tried it myself. I admit I own quite a handful of mascaras of different brands, but because my eyes tend to water, no matter the season is, I am never completely satisfied and …
Clear Anti-Dandruff Shampoo for Men
I didn’t had dandruff in my hair from the beginning, but when I turned 16 I got this problem. It was really annoying for me to deal with it. I didn’t had this problem before and suddenly my hair was filled with dandruff. Like many others who have this …

A long time ago, I bought NuCelle Mandelic Serum 10% for $10 online because I just got rid of my acne, and I needed a tough AHA lotion which can help me get rid of the remainders of my acne - scars. My scars wee actually red and big, that …
Max Factor Erace Concealer

Revlon Age Defying Spa Foundation with SPF 18
It seems like just about every foundation and concealer product that is coming out now has SPF included, Revlon Age Defying Spa Foundation being one of them. If you are using a foundation that does not have the ingredient added you need to switch because how many people …
Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Concealer in Ivory 02
I’ve been keeping an assortment of concealers and am still sticking to my arsenal of makeup cover-ups. To have yet again another one would be at the least of my acquisitions for now, but this Maybelline mineral concealer came in tow with the affordably-priced kit I snagged at …
Loreal Ever Pure Sulfate-free Smooth Deep Control Masque
I don’t really dye my hair much so when I did dye it, I wanted to have the best hair colour experience. I wanted my colour to last and not fade too soon, even though the dye I used was semi-permanent. I also wanted my hair colour to look …
Wet n Wild MegaLiner Liquid Eyeliner
Before I tried this brand, I had been using Jane Endless Eyes liquid eyeliner in a metallic charcoal color. I wanted to try a new brand of eye liner, as the drug store I had been buying my eye liner from stopped carrying Jane eyeliners and the only other …
John Frieda Anytime Volume Refresher
I recently purchased the John Frieda Anytime Volume Refresher. From the name alone, this does not seem like it would be a dry shampoo product, but that is exactly what it is. I was initially very confused when looking at this product on the shelf, but when I found …
Neutrogena Healthy Skin Face Lotion
Neutrogena Healthy Skin Face Lotion was in fact a powerful acne moisturizer which really helped me treat my acne in a matter of one month, back when I was already on an acne treatment that contained alcohol, that was already making the skin dry a lot after use. But …
Skyn Iceland Glacial Cleansing Cloths (Facial Cleansing Cloths)
I recently tried a new product solely because I needed to spend more money to receive a discount while ordering from the Victoria’s Secret catalogue; all orders over $100 would be 10% off, and I love a deal. I looked through the catalogue and found an item I had …
Nu Nature Body Butter
Normally I use a liquid moisturiser on my arms, legs and torso until a friend told me about body butter. She told me that body butter is like a really thick cream that you rub on to your body to promote softness and elasticity in your skin. She used …
Pink Grapefruit Body Scrub by The Body Shop
I recently became a fan of the Body Shop again after many years when I discovered they had an impressive and easy to navigate website. I shopped at the Body Shop almost exclusively for toiletries and beauty items in my younger years as I worked within a stones …
Burt’s Bees Herbal Deodorant with Oil of Sage
Burt’s Bees has created this herbal deodorant that I would describe as not strong enough for a man maybe strong enough for a woman. The premise behind the deodorant is that it is all natural (with its listed ingredients Sage Oil, Lavender Oil, Lemon Peel Oil and SD …
Alba un-petroleum jelly
I bought this multi-purpose jelly online after watching one of the beauty gurus on YouTube rave about it. She claimed that this jelly was much like Vaseline, only better because it did not clog your pores. I decided to give it a try because every time I put Vaseline …
Dove Unscented Body Bar
Being a frequent user of Dove, I have tried all variety except the newly released. One of the variety I tried was their “Unscented” body bar. My aunt gave me one bar of it before and in once incident I also purchased one bar when the store run …
Maybelline XXL Curl Power Volume + Length Mascara
It seems like it’s been rare for me to buy the same kind of mascara more than once, but that hasn’t been true since I started using Maybelline XXL Curl Power Volume + Length Mascara a couple years ago. I first bought this mascara because I saw a commercial …
Cover Girl Outlast Lipstain in Everbloom Kiss
I absolutely love, love, love this lip stain! I’m a girl who just loves pigment when it comes to my lips, the bolder, the better! And I love it when the color lasts all day, so I don’t have to worry about constantly re-applying to my lips. I was …
Max Factor Aqualash Waterproof Mascara
I actually picked this Max Factor Aqualash Mascara up from the bargain bin at Tesco supermarket as I suppose it was nearing its sell-by date, so I got it at a reduced price but I found out it is a brilliant mascara. This mascara is an excellent every …
Clarins Men Shine-Free Gel
Sometimes men have uncontrollable shine in their face. I often complain especially when I wore sunblock while I am surfing or when we are playing soccer under the sun. Sometimes sunblock can cause oily skin and this has been my problem. I was looking for oil control lotions. There …
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 …
Innisfree Green Tea Pure Cleansing Foam
Innisfree is just a Korean skin care brand that I love. I actually went to buy some of their products, and have grown to love them. Their Apple Juicy facial wash is one of the bests I tried, and I really like its scent, because it reminds me of …
Lancome Bi-Facil Eye Makeup Remover
I had never needed a really heavy-duty makeup remover until this summer, when a heat wave made it necessary for me to start wearing waterproof makeup for the first time in my life. Suddenly, soap and water just didn’t do the trick. I went to my favourite department store …
Avon Big Colour Eye Pencil Duo
I just bought this for the first time the other month. I had seen it for a while in the Avon book, and was always interested to get it, but you know what it’s like when there is always so much things to buy from the Avon book.
The …
Udderly Smooth lotion
Recently I noticed that my hands have been dryer than usual, so I asked some people what lotions they liked. One person recommended Udderly Smooth, a type of lotion that is actually developed and used on cows. For some reason, it stood out to me, so I …
