Aussie Moist Shampoo
After realizing that most of the styling products from this brand are ineffective on my hair, I decided to try a shampoo from this company. I have heard from a lot of friends that this product is comparable to, if not better than, Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Shampoo. …
Tresemme Smooth and Silky Conditioner
I have a best friend who swears by the Tresemme line. She says that the company’s products are just as good as expensive salon products. I have used a few of the lines products in the past but I must admit I never have been as impressed …
Bodycology White Gardenia Body Mist
I believe I have already mentioned in my previous reviews that white gardenia is my favorite fragrance out of all Bodycology scents I have tried. And one of my favorite products by this brand is White Gardenia Body Mist. The body mist comes in two sizes, 2 and 8 …
Maybelline Pure Makeup in Creamy Natural
For a long time I used a different brand of foundation. This time I bought Maybelline New York Pure make-up in Creamy Natural. The Cosmetician was helpful in helping me pick the right shade for my skin, in my other foundation brand I always used a Beige colour.
This foundation …
Chicken Poop Free Range Chicken Poop Lip Balm
At first the name kind of scared me away. Then I decided what the heck. I’ve tried worst. I needed something that would work on my chapped lips but not be filled with gunk I could not pronounce. I’m trying to stay true to my natural way of life. …
Nars oil free foundation
I started using this foundation about a month ago now and i am fairly happy with the results it gives..Having said that for the money (approx 28) i would have expected a little better..
I still prefer another cheaper foundation to this one as i found this Nars foundation …
Helosan Orginal creme from Pfizer
This is not an ordinary cosmetic crème, it’s a crème for the extremes.
I always have several tubes of Helosan Orginal crème at home. It´s a very rich crème and on the label it says that it should be use for dry and cracked skin. It also is recommended for it´s …
Smooth Away hair removal
So like a good bit of people, I am lazy at times and want quick fixes. I saw the TV ad for this product and really wanted to try it out. But like all “as seen on tv” ads, everything is exaggerated. My mom ended up getting me it …
Sanitas Solar block
(I have light skin)
I hope people understand how important it is to protect their skin. Even 1 bad sunburn affects your skins health. Protecting your skin helps to prevent aging and even more importantly sun damage leading to skin cancer.
For a few days I have been trying out …
Veet Wax Strips Kit
I bought this in hopes of ridding myself of unwanted hair on my shins as that is the only place that I seem to have the most hair and it looks very manly if left unshaved. For a girl that is very embarrassing, even if I wear pants that …
Wet n’ Wild Shimmer Retractable Eye Pencil #636
This is a fun eye pencil to play with. This number is a dark teal with silver glitter in it. I’m sure you can imagine how dramatic that can be. When I’m feeling like being dark and Gothic I like to put this on with just a little …
Skin Wisdom Revitalising Fruit Peel-Off Face Mask Sachet
This is a peel-off face mask that has been developed to provide the instant benefits of radiance and smooth skin. I used this mask this morning and, not only did I find it pleasurable to use, but my skin has felt lovely all day. It is from …
Christian Dior Haute Couture Eyeshadow Palette: Night Dust
One of my favorite makeup lines is Dior, though the products can be pretty expensive and it has become something I just treat myself with every now and then, rather than buy them regularly. One of my favorite eye shadows is the Dior Haute Couture Eyeshadow Palette line, …
Avon Satin Glow Daily Body Moisturizer
I have found that I really like most Avon products, but there has been one that has stood as one I have not been too impressed with. That is the Satin Glow Daily Body Moisturizer. It’s lotion by Skin So Soft (usually a very good brand) that …
Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara
I have very small and thin lashes and I want to look more wide-eyed. I rarely use eye makeup especially mascara because I am always on the go and I thought that it would take a lot of time to perfect it. Even though I love cosmetics, I was …
Everyday Minerals Sunlight Finishing Dust
I’m very disapointed with Everyday Minerals, although I wish I wasn’t because I really wanted to love their products. They seem to be a very fine quality and well made product, it almost makes it unbelievable because of how cheap all their products are. I have been a user …
Maybelline Fit Me Bronzer
The Maybelline Fit Me Bronzer gets a 3 out of 10 in my opinion. It is one of the worst drugstore bronzers I have ever tried (and I have sampled many). I do not think that I am being at all harsh with the low rating because I have …
Avon’s Night Magic in Evening Musk
Avon’s Night Magic roll on deodorant in “evening musk” is wonderful. It has that nice musk scent that is not overpowering. It is powdery-musk scented and glides onto your skin smoothly with its roller ball applicator. One bad thing is that with more liquid deodorants you …
Eco Dent Daily Care Cinnamon Tooth Powder
Keeping my teeth healthy and white is important to me so I like to use the Eco Dent Daily Care Cinnamon Tooth Powder. The reason I like using this toothpowder over toothpaste is because it is able to scrub able plaque and tartar build up from my teeth well …
Ives Rocher Spa Energie 3D Body Definition Serum
Ives Rocher Spa Energie 3D Body Definition Serum is an elegant product that reduces cellulite and improves the general and firmness of your thighs. And from what I have seen so far it actually works pretty well. I have been using it for more than half a year now, …
Paula’s Choice Weightless Body Treatment, with 2 percent BHA
I’ve been so engrossed by reading Beautypedia for some time. I often browse their product recommendations, and, as I dug deeper into the site, I learned that they’re also promoting their own products under the trademark Paula’s Choice. That made me wary of the credibility of their …
Alberto VO5 Extreme Style Matt Clay
I have short, spiky hair and have always struggled to find a product that can give me the desired messy ‘out of bed’ look that I get at the salon after a haircut. I’ve even purchased the overly priced salon products, but not really had the results I was …
Phytodefrisant Hair Relaxing Balm
Since my hair is dry, frizzy, and naturally curly, I am always trying new products to try to get my hair under control. I like to blow dry may hair straight most of the time if I can. The problem is that it doesn’t always stay that …

Aveeno Active Naturals Daily Moisturizing Lotion

Smashbox Layer Lash Primer
I have reviewed a lot of mascara products and found them to be incomplete. There was always something lacking, either it be the ability to volumize and thicken or the ability to curl and define or the ability to coat evenly or just in the design of the …
La Bella Placenta & Vitamin E Shampoo with Panthenol
My mother-in-law gave me this for my birthday last month, and I have to say they were huge bottles. And I didn’t even know if I was going to use them. The minute my eyes laid on the word placenta, I was ready to throw up. Imagine my shock …
Lancome L’Extreme mascara
Amongst the mascaras that I have tried from Lancome, one of my favourite ones is the one I’m going to talk about, called L’Extreme.
The main effect that I notice when using this mascara is that it makes my eyelashes look longer. Mine are naturally long, but passing the brush …
Desert Essence Lip Rescue with Shea Butter
My lips have been severely dried out and rough. One of the lip balms I have been using to help get my lips smooth and soft again is the Desert Essence Lip Rescue with Shea Butter. It is really moisturizing and contains a lot of nourishing ingredients in it …
H2O Plus Sea Results Eye Mender Plus
I’m generally up late and overloaded with deadlines (in addition to mommy-hood) and it’s really showing on my face. Concealer and foundation generally hide the ‘tired skin’ look but I decided to find something specifically for my eyes. I’ve tried lots, they generally felt soothing but didn’t offer much in …
Freeman Feeling Beautiful Facial Peel-Off Mask Cucumber

Clinique Vitamin C Lip Smoothie Antioxidant Lip Colour
Clinique came out with these lip smoothies (adorable name!) about seven or eight months ago, maybe longer. But this is not a drink! This looks something like a pen, and I think it is formulated to be a cross between a lipstick and a lip gloss. But it has …
Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller
Garnier has introduced a new product for those ladies who have bags under the eyes. I bought this skin renew anti-puff eye roller for INR.750. It comes in a long slim bottle with a tiny ball roller, and contains just 0.5 oz. of liquid. At first I thought it …
Bobbi Brown Bronzing Powder

Lady Powerstick Powder Fresh Antiperspirant and Deodorant
I have always been pretty picky about the deodorant or antiperspirant I use. I sweat a lot for a woman and need something strong to keep me as dry and fresh throughout the day. I sent my husband to the store to buy my last antiperspirant and it was …
Lush Solid Body Tint “Shimmy shimmy”
Hello, beautiful! I’m dedicating todays review to a pretty much useless (well, not completely), but a very pretty thing. And it’s a Lush Solid Body Bar “Shimmy Shimmy”.
So what’s a Lush Body Bar? It’s a body butter that comes in a solid form and it is either used for …
Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara in Blue
Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara in blue was a first time purchase for me. What I liked the most about this mascara is, it actually added volume to my lashes. This is one of the main features I look for when purchasing mascara.
I found this product to be long …
Maybelline Pure Make-up Foundation
I’m always looing for a foundation that will provide the best “translucent” coverage. I ound my shade of Maybelline’s Pure Make-up. It’s oil-free (which I need for my skin), and comes ina small squeezable tube. It’s a good size tube for traveling, with a top …
Neutrogena Ultrasheer Dry-touch sunblock SPF 55 with helioplex
Being a person that has sensitive skin and is prone to breakouts,it was difficult for me to find a sunblock that was compatible with my skin type. After trying many products and suffering from many breakouts, I came across Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 55 with Helioplex …

Too Faced Snow Bunny Sexy Bag
After trying the Snow Bunny bronzer in another kit and falling in love with it, I decided to by this kit because it came with the Snow Bunny bronzer and one of my favorite mascaras by Too Faced cosmetics. Unlike the sample that I tried before with the Snow …
Skin Therapy 30 Eye Make-Up Remover Pads for Sensitive Skin
These are excellent make-up remover pads for eyes from Sainsbury’s own —˜Skin Therapy’ range. The particular kind I am reviewing is for sensitive skin but although they contain a very gentle and non-irritating cleansing product, I find that they easily remove even waterproof mascara. I have also …
Fruits and Passion Cucina Regenerating Hand Cream
I am not a hand cream user normally, mainly because I dislike the greasy feeling of most creams, and I also wash my hands so much that it seems like a waste to put cream on. But I may be evolving into a hand-cream user. First of all, this …

Basics Solutions Glittery Hair Brush
I have really thick hair and so does my daughter. We often have to find strong and durable brushes to rake through our thick locks. My daughter’s hair is super curly, and it can rip the teeth right out of a comb or brush. I don’t like spending …
Bonne Bell Bubble Gum Lip Smacker Lip Gloss
Bonne Bell Bubble Gum Lip Smacker Lip Gloss is more like a chapstick I think instead of a lip gloss. I think it moisturizes lips and protect lips slightly, but also makes my lips shiny like a lip gloss would. It comes in the same chapstick tube as a …
