iWhite Oil-free Vita Aqua Moisturizing Cream

Victoria’s Secret Spotlight Lip Gloss - Catwalk
I’m not sure if you heard of this gloss or anything similar to it. It has a light that turns on when you press a button on the top of the gloss. It lights up your lips when you put the wand on your lips to apply the gloss.
I …
Urban Decay Naked Eyeshadow Palette
Urban Decay Naked Palette is definitely my favourite eyeshadow palette I have ever tried.

Purifying Facial Scrub by Human Nature

I weigh 97 pounds and I report I still have cellulite. It’s not really visible and only have a minor case of this “women’s curse” but it still irks me because I do exercise regularly but still have cellulite. I was on the pill (contraceptive pill) for 3 years …
Johnson’s Softwash Calming Body Wash
Johnson’s Softwash Calming Body Wash with 1/3 baby lotion advertises that it’s not just for babies. During the harsh winter months, my skin really pays the price so I decided to give this product a try. However, I was somewhat skeptical. Because it contains baby lotion, I was …
Nivea Visage Cleansing Milk Makeup Remover

Kiehl’s Olive Fruit Oil Nourishing Conditioner

Avon Quelch Whitening Deodorant Cream
I’d say this is such a disgusting product. A deodorant that’s supposed to whiten underarms is instead staining my blouses. It’s good that at least I tried this product so that I would know how effective it would be for my chicken-skinned armpit. My underarms were not desperate for …
Mac Mineralized Skinfinish Medium
Ok. So if you read my other MAC review you will know I’m not happy with how rushed I feel every time I go to the counter.

Suave Firming Moisturizer

Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush in Candy Baby
I have a hard time finding fragrances that my husband and I both like. I have tried the sophistocated(sp?) Chanel, Marc Jacobs, and everything in between! I have even gone the drugstore route and tried Love’s Baby Soft, but couldn’t handle the way it was presented, the spray can, …

I’ve always tried to keep my skin smooth and moisturized, but have had troubles with various products over the years. Some lotions burn, some lotions are too greasy and some just flat out don’t work. I finally picked up some Suave Firming Moisturizer from the store recently. I’m amazed …
EB Advance BB Cream in Oriental

Sheer Blonde Lustrous Touch Shampoo
I have a friend who uses the Brilliant Brunette products and has always had beautiful, shiny brunette hair, so I decided to give John Frieda’s Sheer Blonde products a try. I started out by using their Sheer Blonde shampoo every day. At first I used a moisturizing shampoo but …
Avon True Glow
My Avon lady is a real fan of Avon perfume. I am not and I think that she is really bothered by that fact. She is one of those people who just has to prove that she is right and that you are wrong. I find that rather silly …
Lubriderm Daily Moisture Lotion for Normal to Dry Skin
I absolutely despise that oily feeling that most effective lotions leave on the skin for hours after application. This is why I really like Lubriderm Daily Moisture Lotion. I live in a very dry, windy, cold area, so I have a huge problem with dry skin on my arms, …

Imperial Leather Freshen Up Bergamot & Thyme Shower Gel

Lakme Nail Color Remover
