Human Heart Nature All-Natural Deodorant with Sunflower Oil
I count myself lucky to have absolutely no body odor issues. Living under tropical climes, the expression “sweat like a pig” may be taken as an understatement, but fortunately, my body seldom smells. It was my sister who recommended the Human Heart Nature all-natural deodorant, despite her …
Nair Hair Removal Cream
I have super sensitive skin so I am always cutting myself shaving or getting horrendous razor burn, no matter what kind of special razor or aloe-containing shaving gel I use. So I figured I would give Nair a shot.
First of all, this stuff smells HORRIBLE. At first it smelled …
Redken Shine Brilliance Polishing Milk
I have pretty coarse hair that frizzes easily and tends to do so a lot whenever I straighten it. I got this as a sample and it works so good on my hair that I am definitely going to rush out and buy a full size of this when …
Fanny Serrano Concealer (Sand)
This is a nice shade of concealer for people with really pale skin and I have used Mac concealers before but even Mac’s palest concealer wasn’t enough for me, so I had to use this one and it’s also good but doesn’t have the same long-lasting effect as with …
Neutrogena Skin Clearing Foundation
I had been using a mineral foundation for the past three years. Recently, when I ran out, I did not want to go pay $45 dollars for a new compact. I believe that I should be able to find a good foundation for a fraction of this cost. But …
Almay Intense I Color Eye Shadow For Blue Eyes
I’m every marketer’s dream since I purchase many of my cosmetics by impulse and am immediately drawn to new and gimmicky products. I fell for it again when I saw Almay was offering color coordinated eye shadow sets based on eye color. The shadows come in a set of …
Motions Professional Hair Relaxer
Ask any woman who gets her hair chemically relaxed on a monthly basis the one thing she wishes she could change about the product she uses and the answer will most likely be the damage they cause to hair. As nice as it is to have flowy, straight locks, …
VS Pro Voluptuous FX Mascara

Chanel Glossimer in Brilliance lip gloss

Crabtree & Evelyn Lavender Swiss Glycerine Soap
A couple of years ago, I did a lot of shopping at Crabtree & Evelyn during the holiday season. They put out some really interesting soaps that had the scents of spearmint and peppermint. The spearmint one was in the shape of a snowflake. Their limited-edition pomegranate rouge scent …
Olay Natural White Day Cream
I have been using another brand for almost 8 years, the effects? I am not really sure about it being effective as I had not seen my face become lighter because of it. It also did not decrease the oiliness of my face. Hence, when Olay released its new …
Life Cell anti wrinkle cream
Although I am not a fan of trying revolutionary beauty products, I went into a 30 days trial period with Life Cell anti wrinkle cream.
My face skin looked very tired, dry and with spider web wrinkles around my eyes and mouth.
Somehow a long time of effort and worries have …
Matrix Vavoom Volumizing Foam 9 oz
Vavoom totally rocks! I have curly hair which I used to tame with gels and serums. I used to avoid mousse because I wasn’t really that crazy about the messy rockstar look. I wanted something to weigh my hair down to keep it from expanding and from going on …
Evoke Melon Sorbet Deodorant
I was going through the supermarket finding a new deodorant to use and I came across this one. It is a Girlfriend Brand, which has their own magazine and girlfriend jewelry .

Herbal Essences totally twisted curl scrunching gel
I don’t usually buy hair gel, unless I’m going to blow dry my curly hair straight. I’ve never had a gel that works with my curly hair, but I was drawn to buying Herbal Essences totally twisted curl scrunching gel.
This is a very visual product. Its a 170g purple …
Sally Hansen Double Duty Base and Top Coat

Philosophy Gingerbread Man Exfoliating Scrub
It seems like very few people take baths these days. It’s all about the quick and easy shower. I, however, am a big fan of taking long baths. The best part about baths are the salts and scrubs you get to use in them. I was recently given the …
Avon Sweet Candy Bubble Bath
This Bubble Bath has been out in Avon for a good few months, but I think this is heading to be out the main books and get sold in the sale books. This is alright as it is often for sale at a good price, but there is always …
Dove Shine Therapy shampoo

Wet ‘n’ Wild Color Icon Palette in #249: Vanity
I recently purchased the Wet ‘n’ Wild Color Icon Palette in the shade #249: “Vanity.” I purchased this particular product for a weird reason. A younger cousin of mine wants to get into makeup and she knows that I am pretty knowledgeable about products so she asked me to …
Pantene Ice shine shampoo
I was so frustrated when the airlines put that—¦ 3-ounce liquid content restriction on all carry-on baggage. What was I going to do when I visited my daughter? I need my designer shampoo, conditioner, lipstick, body lotion etc—¦.

Clean and Clear Exfoliating Facial Wash

Victoria’s Secret Hydrating Body Lotion in Pure Seduction
The time I got this Victoria’s Secret hydrating lotion, it stirred a nostalgic vein in me after sniffing the perfumed lotion. There’s no doubt I have had used this lotion before. Or it is highly probable that my old perfumes have freesia in them, one way or …
Nivea Natural Tone Face and Body Creme
I received a nice sized sample of Nivea Natural Tone Face & Body crème from a website offering freebies. One thing that impressed me was that it did not come in a little pouch like most other samples, and the other thing that impressed me was that it …
Shu Uemura Eyelash Adhesive
I liked Shu Uemura’s line of eyelashes, they are very fine and natural-looking, so when I bought some lashes at their lash bar, I also bought a tube of adhesive as I don’t really know where to buy one. I had a Mac eyelash adhesive but it was too …
Chanel Exceptionnel Mascara
Tried it first from a sample given by magazine, and definitely amazed me in instant! It takes a while to get used to the large chunky brush, however once we’re good at it, the effect is awesome. It curls the lashes by itself as well as lengthening and volumizing …
Garnier Fructis Shampoo
Garnier Fructis shampoo has always been a favorite of mine. I usually switch between Dove shampoo and Garnier Fructis shampoo, but if I had to choose between the two I would choose Garnier Fructis shampoo any day. Perhaps the best thing about all of the Garnier Fructis Shampoos is …
Avon Skin so soft hand cream
I usually buy Avon products from one neighbour of ours. She is quite nice and she always gives me her opinion about the products and she is usually right. I like some of the Avon products and I must say that I don’t order very often, maybe 2 or …
Lorial Mascara

Loreal Vive Pro Glossy Volume Shampoo + Conditioner
I am a fan of shampoos that make my hair look and feel healthy, silky, shiny, and if possible subtly volumized. I really had my heart set on buying a Sunsilk shampoo when I walked into my local Walgreens, but they didn’t stock Sunsilk at all! I was previously …
MAC Lipstick in Viva Glam Gaga

Bare Escentuals Purifying Facial Cleanser
