These …

The brush of this mascara is very impressive. It offers three types of lash-enhancing feature. The brush like other mascaras, is composed of three sides. Honestly, I am already aware of this concept. I have tried another brand with the same style. I am not surprised or really enthralled …

I recently tried the Pedi Egg. This maybe the only “As Seen on TV” product that actually works. I should know I have tried all of them! I always get dry skin on the bottoms of my feet. …

When I look for beauty products I like to choose products that are meant for a specific thing, for example lipstick that is actually lipstick. Nothing is worse than when you get a beauty product that can’t decide what it wants to be, and I am not talking …

I have been using mineral makeup for a while and have been loving it. When I found this mascara that said it was mineral enriched and had 86% pure ingredients in it I wanted to try it. I bought it in black. My eyelashes are fairly long …

I received this item as a gift. It was from someone who knows nothing about what kind of makeup I prefer so I think they were just going for a huge variety of various colors so they had it all covered, which was a nice thought. The kit …

If I remember correctly, this lip gloss shade called Glacier was part of Bobbi Brown’s “platinum” collection. She released it in the spring of 2009. That’s what I love about Bobbi. Every year (or maybe every season), she focuses on a specific color theme and runs with it. She …

I bought Boots No7 Soft & Soothed Gentle Toner for around 400 pesos from a local reseller selling things online.

I am always treating my hair, to try to get it to look decently. I get tired of the rough edges, dry hair and dry scalp. 99 percent of relaxers result in my hair being brittle, and something like a brillo pad. I hate when my hair gets like …

I am very fond of lip gloss, and have several friends who really like the Lip Smackers brand. So of course I try different kinds. There are a lot of different Lip Smackers, and I trid this one, Splash ‘n Shine, because it was slightly less expensive than the …

This brand is pretty expensive so I was reluctant to buy it , but I was mesmerized by the commercials.
What I loved most about it was the fact that the color looks natural. I have light skin. No problem here because most cosmetic brands make foundations for light skin. …

As a swimmer, I get chlorine burns quite often, especially around my eyes where my goggles and the chlorinated water make the skin there sensitive and around my shoulders where my swim suit strap rubs against my skin. If you’ve ever had chafed skin, you know how uncomfortable it …

Recently I have been dealing with a stubborn patch of red sore blemishes on my face and decided to change my facial cleanser. The facial cleanser I turned to and decided to try was the Simple Moisturizing Facial Wash. I turned to it because it was affordable costing me …

I don’t tan at all. I don’t go outside in the summer months without SPF 30 sunscreen and I never lie on tanning beds. You can imagine my surprise then, when a friend bought me a 470ml bottle of daily ResCu Triple Tan Extender by Californatan for $34.99CDN plus …

I bought this petroleum jelly three months ago and it’s still more than half full. It’s not because I’m not using it everyday. On the contrary, I use it more than once a day.
I first bought it because I was getting tired of using all those tiny …

I have tried many facial cleansers over the years, I never would have picked this up if it wasn’t for a friend recommending it to me. I haven’t used much philosophy products so I am not too familiar with the line. I wanted to try this because it claims …

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 …

First off, I have normal skin. By normal, I mean I don’t have any pimples, blemishes, or skin problems other than the occasional mid-afternoon oiliness especially if I have been out in the sun during the day. That said, I don’t really need any special skincare regimen other than …

I have used a lot of sun block lotions to protect my skin against the harmful UV Rays. I am just too conscious in protecting my skin. I feel more confident when I have that radiant looking skin. Besides, in my line of work, I should look more presentable …

I absolutely ADORE mascara. I’m usually not a huge make-up wearer, but despite that I can’t even leave the house to go for a walk, to the gym, or to do grocery shopping without applying a generous amount of mascara.
I have very thin, long eyelashes, that are light …

On a makeup inspired whim, I got this Tarina Tarantino Dollskin Cheek Blush in Parasol because I had extra cash burning a hole in my wallet. I love to throw my money at useless things, and this blush is gorgeous, but not unique. I pay way too much attention …

I love this product, but I imagine I use it in a different way than most people do. This product is meant to be used merely as a nail strengthener, but I use it as a topcoat. I use many different brands of nail polish, but I …

I am a huge nail polish fan and have been collecting nail polish for the past 4 years now, hence I have quite an extensive collection of nail polish. Like every nail polish addict, I am obsessed with OPI’s colours and collections and make a point to test and …
