He-Shi Express Liquid Tan Fake Tanning Lotion
I am not usually a fan of fake tans as I tend to prefer the control I get with a gradual tanning lotion, but I had read good things about the He-Shi Express Liquid Tan so I gave it a try and I think it is a great product. …
ANTARA hand lotion
I love to know that when I visit my doctor, that he uses Antara hand lotion that is so moisturizing that I do not feel as if my doctor’s hands are like a pot scrubber’s hands! My doctor uses Antara hand moisturizing lotion, that does have a nice, subtle …
Maybelline Clear Smooth : Shine Free Face Powder Natural

Vaseline Shampoo
I am not sure why but Vaseline shampoo gives me dandruff and not just flakes but itchy and swollen scalp as well. I honestly believe it is because of the strong scent. Even the anti-dandruff Vaseline shampoo had no effect whatsoever so I am really puzzled. Too bad …
Sephora Pearl Eye Mask for Perfecting and Brightening
For my bridal shower, I received a Sephora gift card. Now, whenever I have a Sephora gift card, I have one rule - I don’t walk out of the store with a balance. Not wanting to break my own rule, I added the Sephora Pearl Eye Mask (along with …
Biore Pore Pack (black)
I’ve had blackheads for years and just looking at them gets on my nerves, so I’ve decided to try to use this biore pore pack which claims that it effectively removes blackheads.

Olay Ultra Moisture Body Lotion
I have tried a few of the Olay products and have fallen in love with each and every one of them. I figured that if I loved the body washes and soaps, I would probably like the lotion as well. My skin gets awfully dry, so it is important …
IN2IT Light Reflecting Liquid Eyeliner (Turquoise)
I haven’t had much experience with the IN2IT products. A long while back I had bought their felt tip liquid eyeliner and didn’t like it that much because although it said water and smudge proof it did smudge.
The prices of their products however are very affordable and I …
Avon Ultra Colour Rich Mousse Lipstick
I bought a lipstick from Avon’s range of Ultra Colour Rich Mousse lipsticks because I read a review that said it makes your lips feel greasy. This was appealing to me because I usually put my lipstick on over a slick of Vaseline or lip balm anyway. …

Crest Pro-Health Oral Rinse
I bought a small (8.45 fl.oz.) bottle of Crest Pro-Health Oral Rinse several weeks ago; the bottle was included into a special deal pack with a tube of Crest toothpaste for only $3, so I thought I would try it. This oral rinse is light-blue in color, with mildly …

Avon Strawberry Sorbet Bubble Bath
I love a nice Bubble Bath but to be honest I am never really in 1 all that much. I like to soak in a bath and will easily spend 50 minutes in the bath easily enough. Although i’m sure I can spare this amount of time on a …

Gillette Sensor 3 Disposable Razors
Gillette always seemed to provide the most reliable products for our household over the years, but their shavers and refillable cartridges are always so expensive that I don’t want to invest them on a continuing basis and tend to only buy them as gifts during the holidays and as …
Avon Naturals Hand Refreshing Peach Antibacterial Hand Gel
It was actually not me, but my mother who bought this from a lady selling Avon products. She gave the tube to me some time after she began to use it, but before I began to use it myself, I doubted that the “Avon Naturals Hand Refreshing Peach Antibacterial …
Carmex Moisture Plus
I forgot my chapstick at home and was super bummed out. My lips were dry and starting to get that burning sensation. I stopped and went into the store and saw Carmex Moisture Plus and decide to give it a try since I liked the original Carmex product. I …
CV CadeaVera Face Peel-Off Mask
This was again one of the products I bought by accident, I was searching for a peeling mask to use before I would use a anti-acne mask and made a mistake by buying a peel-of mask, a mask that I did not know even existed. But it was one …
Natures Garden Glutathione whitening soap
I have a light skin, but I would like it to be fair enough. Before I am just using ordinary soap since early year 1990’s some whitening soap is not available and If maybe there is available it’s very expensive. Early year 2000 when papaya soap was risen, I …

John Varvatos Essential Face Cleanser
I never cared for my face much until I was active in sports. I just don’t want to sacrifice my appearance to the dismay of my mom, my ever self-absorbed sister and my girlfriend. I developed so many things in my face. Before I had several cuts on my …
Dermablend Smooth Indulgence with Matte Finish
I first got introduced to Dermablend through my mom. At that time, she worked in cosmetics. I told her I wanted to try something new to hide my old puberty acne scars. What I was using at that time wasn’t working. After nagging on and on about …
Stila Eyeshadow in Wheat
This is such a gorgeous color! I use this almost everyday; I’m thinking of buying a backup for this for when I run out because this color is amazing. It is a really nice neutral color, a beige, and it reminds me of wheat. I guess that’s why they …

Being a cosmetic patron I love it whenever I get a free sample after spending an amount of money. My most favorite free sample product was DiorShow Blackout. Dior is a high-end cosmetic and having to get one for free is like hitting beauty jackpot. Anyway I tried this …

Once you go MAC, you never go back. At first, I was daunted by the high prices of this premier cosmetics line; but seeing is believing. I fell in love with MAC’s new spring collection, Sugar Sweet. The colors are lush and fresh, both delicate and opulent.
First in the …
Yves Saint Laurent Shocking Water-Resistant Felt Tip Liquid Eyeliner
I was really excited to purchase this liquid eyeliner. This is a new product by YSL Cosmetics. It’s very expensive for its quality. The packaging of this is very sleek. It’s glossy, and black and gold. To me, it looks like an everyday typical liquid eyeliner pen with a …
Avon Moisture Effective Eye Makeup Remover Lotion
When it comes to makeup, I’m a light user: eye shadow only. I use eye shadow primarily on the weekends, but I still needed a product that would be easy to use when I would remove it at night. Forgetting to remove makeup and waking up to it the …
Garnier Skin Naturals Pure Pore Unblock Foam
Garnier Pore Unblock Foam is my current facial wash. I used to use the acne line of Garnier which is Garnier Pure A which was quite similar to L’oreal Purezone (my favorite wash that was too expensive). I switched to pore unblock foam from Pure A because it’s milder …
Olay Natural White
After getting great results with other Olay products, I began trusting the brand even more. So when my sis gave me a two-piece set of Olay Natural White, I was a bit excited to try. I wasn’t too crazy about the whitening thing but hey, it’s Olay, …
Olay Regenerist Anti-Aging Eye Roller (Cosmetics)
I have tried two different eye roller products that claim to make your under-eye area look less puffy, dark and tired. I have found that they have a limited effect on my tired, swollen eyes; they certainly have a cooling effect, but that only lasts briefly. It is a …
Salon Collections Sponge Hair Rollers
I have been using Salon Collections Sponge Hair Rollers for several years, and I find them very convenient. These rollers are available in several sizes: small, medium, large, and very large, which allows you to create tighter or looser curls. I prefer larger locks or waves, so I use …
Panrosa Makeup Removal Cleansing Foam

Pantene Pro-V Color Hair Solutions Color Nourishing Treatment
I did something totally awful to my hair and colored it. Three times in a month. I know that’s probably the worst thing you can do to your hair and I’ve regretted it every day since because it’s created nothing but a mess for me to have to work …
Jason Natural Aloe Vera Body Lotion
Since I started using Jason’s Natural Lavender Therapy Lotion I have begun to use other products of that company as well. I haven’t found any that I like as much as the lavender thus far but their products are still pretty good and I love the fact that they …
Maybelline Dream Matte Pressed Powder in Fair
This is another item I bought off ebay recently together with a bunch of other Maybelline cosmetics. I wouldn’t call it a Maybelline haul since I’m not really frenzied to shed some of my money for such items except that the mark downs in prices were so impulsive. …
Amplicils Waterproof by Lancome
I know that Lancome has several good products. But the price from Lancome products will not be the same with the cheap products that we can find in the normal store.
I used Amplicils Waterproof from Lancome few times. And I like the result that I got from this …
