My husband accidently dropped a bit of his own shampoo on a bar of soap and somehow the chemical reaction between the two created a weak form of amonia. Being extremely concerned about it, I went up to my local health food store and purchased Natures Gate …

I’m not sure where or from whom my mother bought this liquid hand soap, but for some reason I expected a lot more from it before we started using it. I’m guessing this was because the soap had a ‘less than cheap’ look to it. However, when I did …

First, as someone with hair that can really only be described as “poofy” I love that the Sunsilk line of haircare products has created styling products especially for this need. Granted, anti-frizz products usually work decently on my hair, but they’re just not quite specialized enough.
The 24/7 Creme …

In general I am not a fan of Frutcis Garnier products. To me they have always felt extremely heavy and greasy. My hair is fine, therefore I do not think it is cut out to handle such dense products. I suspect my hair just does not gel with Fructis, …

I bought Dr. Fred Palmer Skin Whitener Cream for around $7 online, along with other treatments. It weighed 2 oz and would last a long time, but it pretty helped lighten the skin tone I used to have, and it was a good product worth buying.

This is just about the same as any other pencil sharpener, but it is pink, and matches a set of brushes I bought from Barry M. I do like a few of the features it comes with, and they make it worth the few extra dollars this sharpener costs. …

I’ve …

I’ll be honest when I say that I do not really like the idea of purchasing a foundation that is in stick form. There is just something about it that does not seem right. Concealers come as sticks, but in my mind, foundations should be sold in

This product had me extremely excited from the get-go, I’d only ever seen it the one time, and when I looked at it and read the packaging, I knew I had to have one. Even in my mid-thirties I still have breakouts. For the most part, it’s just small …

Tainting your eyes is oftentimes tedious. We often ask ourselves how long will this procedure last? It normally takes 15-20 minutes to apply detailed make-up in your face.
