L’oreal Double Extend Mascara
As I’ve gotten older, my lashes have become a little more sparse which is quite disheartning to me. I have always been noticed for my eyes because of my great lashes. I’ve used Maybeline Full and Soft for years, but have found that it flakes quite easily and …
Nivea Extra Whitening Anti-Perspirant
I used to play volleyball in the past and having had to sweat heavily, I relied on anti-perspirants. However, most of the products I tried failed considerably so I would always look for a better alternative every now and then.
I came across Nivea Extra Whitening Anti-Perspirant as I was …
Revlon Flex-to-fit nails
I used to get my nails done at a salon. This is not only costly but also very time consuming. I would spend an average of 1 1/2 hours at the salon every two weeks. Then, if a nail accidentally broke, I have to find time to …
Alberto European Moussing Gel
I have long been a fan of Alberto hair products, and have found the best ever with their European Moussing Gel in a 180gram container. This moussing gel states that it is ‘curl enhancing’ and my long very curly hair is proof it works! I usually stay away from …
Gillette Foamy Shave Foam
The nice red cylindrical packing itself attracted me towards this Gillette Foamy Shave Foam and I bought its regular flavor even though some other mints were available. Even with regular use this shaving foam is long lasting. For around two months one bottle was well enough. I also feel …
Delon Olive Shampoo 725 mL/24.5 fl. Oz.
To be honest, what first got me attracted this shampoo was the packaging. It comes in a fat, transparent bottle with drawings of green olives all over it, you can see them whichever side you look. It even seems to have this 3D effect, as if those …
Nichido Powder Plus Foundation
Powder foundation is used to conceal the flaws in a person’s face. It is also used so that a person’s face won’t look too oily but instead, it will always look fresh and smell good. But the best powder foundation should also have an add-on benefit aside from what …
Moroccan Oil
There are a number of hair and makeup products that I have heard hyped up so much by makeup artists, hair stylists, and others over the years. However, I have probably never had more people suggest that I try one product more than Moroccan Oil. I have read magazine …

If you have ever wanted to try a magic serum that would help eliminate frizz from your hair , then this is your chance. It really works like … magic. It is an easy product to use and you’ll see results as soon as you apply it. This serum …
Anthony Logistics Acne Cleanser
There are really facial cleansers which can worsen blemishes instead of treating them. I was not really impressed with Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle Anti-Blemish Cleanser’s capacity to fight occasional zits so I tried using something from one of my favorite brands. I really think that these pimples that keeps on …
Cellbone Prep Skin Refresher
This product is an astringent from Cellbone Technology. I got this online for 400 Php ( around 18$ plus ). The product comes in a simple and transparent bottle. This is a facial toner which claims that it can help exfoliate your skin. I never used toners this much before …
Arianne Body Powder by Avon
Between talc and cornstarch-based powders, I prefer the latter because I naturally have a reaction to talc triggering my breathing problems as an asthmatic. At the moment, I’m using Arianne Body powder after flipping through pages of an avon catalogue. This powder is cornstarch-based which is more …
Gilette Venus and Olay Bikini Kit
While perusing the aisles of my local pharmacy, I came across this interesting kit. What attracted me to it was the promise of a trimmer, something that I have never seen in a disposable razor kit. Also, to get a razor, trimmer, and some kind of soothing moisturizing lotion …
TIGI Bed Head
I have been a fan of TIGI Bed Head products for quite some time, but seeing how most of their products can fall under the ‘I can’t afford it’ category, I tend to only be able to purchase their items when I have some spare cash.
When I saw that …
Olay Complete All Day Moisture Lotion SPF 15
I’m constantly looking for a good moisturizer that hydrates my dry areas while leaving my already oily area alone. It’s also important for the product to be hypoallergic because my skin tends react to most products the longer I live the product on. Since the moisturizer is …
Finess Oil Control Sheets
Since I always have an oily face, it’s a must that I always have in my bag a handy set of oil control sheets. It’s just not enough that you use a hanky to wipe it form my face. And since I’m busy with school and with practicum, I …
Olay white radience
Olay white radiance is the creme, which is brand new. Actually I have not yet tried this product but I have only applied this creme on my face for a few times, as my younger sister uses it. The Olay white radiance creme is dam good in …
Yves Rocher Luminelle Blush
I decided to buy the “Apricot” color blush because in the Yves Rocher’s catalog, it was looking like pretty peachy shade. So, you can easily imagine my deception when I received it and discover that the blush was more a pink color. However, because of their 100% money back …
Mane —˜n Tail Shampoo
I have known Mane —˜n Tail Shampoo for so long but my first use of this shampoo was only last year. At first I was hesitant to have a try on this product for I am not comfortable seeing the horse in its label. Of course I don’t want …

Hortaleza Virgin Coconut Oil Conditioner
I got my hair rebonded last month and I was advised by the Salon that I should just use a conditioner for the maintenance of my hair because shampoos make your hair dry. So I followed the Salon’s Advice and went to HBC store (Home of Beauty Exclusive) to …
Long ‘N Strong Hair Treatment Lotion
Long ‘N Strong Hair Treatment Lotion is I am sorry to say a total rip off. To start off with it claims to make your hair grown longer faster. I ordered the sixty day supply and used it faithfully and could not tell one bit of difference, it hadn’t …
The Body Shop Rainforest Rescue Balance Shampoo
I’ve recently tried the Haircare range from The Body Shop for my haircare type. I had never tried their range before although I am a fan of the shop. I keep meaning to buy the products online, but never get around to it and my closest shop is nearly …

I didn’t have any expectation of the body butter before trying it. I thought it would be just …
American Fare Sensitive Skin Disposable Razors
I have noticed that I will try almost anything with the words sensitive skin in the title. I have sensitive skin and find myself dreading shaving. I like my skin to be smooth and silky, but razors often leave my skin irritated and looking like I have a rash. …

ManGroomer Essential Nose and Ear Hair Trimmer

Dove Ultimate Go Fresh Energizing Deodorant

Avon Super Shock Mascara
For some strange reason, I always tend to go for the mascara products that are either packaged in very bright, colorful and well designed tubes or the ones that have names containing words like “mega” and “extreme”. I recently heard of the Avon Super Shock Mascara and after reading …
e.l.f. Professional Nail Polish Remover Pads

Neutrogena Rapid Clear Acne Defense Face Lotion
Last year, I purchased Neutrogena Rapid Clear Acne Defense Face Lotion for $21 online, after reading some of its positive comments from its former users. It cost $21 each, as I mentioned, and because it was inexpensive, I bought 3 bottles. That time I was suffering from a severe …
Clean & Clear Shine Control Moisturizer
Clean & Clear Oil-Free Morning Burst Shine Control Moisturizer is an okay product. It moisturizes well and claims it is oil-free, but I did not see much of a reduction in the shine on my face. The shine was slightly reduced, but my forehead was still shiny about two …
VMV Hypoallergenics Matte Last Lipstick in Feather Boa

Nads Hair Removal Gel
I will never buy this product again!
I paid eighteen dollars for a little tub of Nads, believing the labeling when it said that my legs would be smooth for up to six weeks.
