Sinful Colors Professional Nail Enamel, Color # 860, Mercury Rising
At this point, I have tried several of these Sinful Proffessionals nail colors. I’m finding that the actual color of these nail colors is always a surprise. This would bother me a lot more if they were more expensive. Happily they’re super cheap right now at Walgreens so I …

Nicole by OPI Polish
Product: Nicole by OPI Polish
My color pick: Positive Energy

Moisture Surge Intense Skin Fortifying Hydrator by Clinique
A few weeks ago my face started getting extremely dry and flaky. I tried putting lotion on it and some aloe vera gel but it didn’t make any difference. My skin was red, felt stretched and painful. I was getting very hopeless and I thought I would look like …
Finesse Self-adjusting Moisturizing Conditioner
I bought this bottle as a back-up to my previous L’oreal Smooth Intense conditioner since May of this year. I didn’t know I could stretch the amount of the latter conditioner for the next 3 months so I ended hoarding this product in my bathroom counter. Finesse …
Benefit’s Coralista
Benefit’s newest product is Coralista, a light facial powder used to add color to washed out looking, pale skin. I am half Irish and half English so I have fairly light skin. Sometimes these products look ridiculous on me, as if I’m preparing for my gig …

John Frieda Frizz Ease extra strength Formula hair serum

Vaseline Lip Therapy
My lips are constantly dry. I’m one of those people you’ll see applying lip balm, and two minutes later, reapplying. Most lip balms like Burts Bees, Nivea, and Chapstick don’t work for me. I used to like them, but I realized that they only made your lips feel good …

The Product

Tarte Cosmetics At Ease Micronized Clay Calming Concealer with ARPM

American Crew Daily Shampoo For normal to oily hair and scalp

Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Gloss Nude
This is a review of the hilariously named Sexy Mother Pucker lip gloss from Soap & Glory. This is more than a lip gloss as it claims to plump your lips to create a full, beautiful mouth. It contains —˜superfill microspheres’ which are basically like little sponges …
Marks and Spencer Rosemary Conditioner
This inexpensive conditioner is simply named —˜Rosemary Conditioner’ and I bought a 200ml bottle from a Marks & Spencer store. Its main selling point is that it is “kinder for you and for the environment” - a completely natural hair conditioner with no artificial colors and no preservatives …

A lot of my makeup and cosmetic purchases lately have focused on trying to find products that serve dual purposes, in an effort to save money and cut down on clutter in my makeup bag. I also travel frequently, so buying items that perform more than one function makes …
Fanny Serrano Concealer (Sand)

St. Ives Soothing Oatmeal & Shea Butter

Loreal Paris Renutrition Conditioner with Royal Jelly

Sheer Cheek Tint in Strawberry from 100 Percent Pure
