Avon Ultra Colour Rich Lipstick - Shimmer
This is one of the best Avon lipstics. I saw this peach colour in one catalog and I just had to have it.
I usually buy avon only because I feel sorry for the ladies that sell it and then I just want to help me. I don’t care for …
Mac Blue My Mind Mineralize Eye Shadow Trio
Blue and violet are my favorite hues when it comes to eyeshadows, and even during daytime I find it tempting to wear just the slightest shades of both colours even though some people may think it’s inappropriate, but applied lightly they can look great and it can look appropriate, …
Neutrogena Body Clear Body Scrub
This scrub is very good to keep my skin clear! Since I’ve started using this product, my chest and my back are blemish free! I find this body scrub so useful for the gym, I just use my hands to wash myself so I let the beads do the …
The Body Shop Baked to Last eyeshadows (shade 02 Moonstone)
TheBodyShop Baked to Last eyeshadows claim that they are pigments that have been baked on a disc for up to 8 hours, ensuring highly pigmented and long-lasting wear.
The shade that this review concerns is Moonstone-a rather attractive shimmery white beige duo-Ed with a shimmery steel shadow that has swirls …
St. Ives Extra Relief Collagen Elastin Lotion
I have always had great luck with any St. Ives product I’ve tried. I find that they usually cost a little bit more than other like products, BUT it works better than any of the cheaper products, especially now in winter, I’m using this product like crazy. I was …
Naturistics Wild Berries Moisturizing Body Wash
I really love this body wash, it comes in Wild Berries and the scent is just heavenly! The wild berries are a mix of grapes, strawberries, and blueberries as shown in the front picture of the tube. The mix of the berries altogether isn’t really wild as in they’re …
Bath and Bodyworks Sensual Aroma Therapy
I’m the kind of person who loves to make my environment as comfortable for me as I possibly can. That’s why I love going to places like Bath and Body works to find fragrances that add to my over all environment and feeling of comfort. Up against one of …
Chanel 12 Embrase Extreme Lip Colour
Chanel is known for its glamorous and elegant cosmetic products and I will not argue with that. I have used so many brands, shades and types of lipsticks but Chanel 12 Embrase Extreme Lip Colour is my all time favorite! Let me first describe to you the external appearance …
Jane Be Pure Mineral Lip Balm
I wasn’t sure what I was buying when I bought this, but I have liked many of Jane’s product (not all of them) and this looked interesting. I had just bought some mineral foundation and blush that I loved, so I wanted to see what other mineral-based products were …
Clean&Clear Blackhead Clearing Scrub
I wasnt the first to try this product out in my family, but I had the honor to watch my brother try it out.
He has a more oily type of skin, resulting in higher chances of blackheads.
So I bought it for him as a present.
He started using it according to …
Gillette Fusion Razors
Gillette Fusion razors are great razors to use. They are easy to hold, smooth on your skin, and get rid of all of your unwanted hair. I really like the handle of these Gillette Fusion razors; it makes them so easy to hold and to use. I am going …
Maybelline SuperStay 24 2-Step Lipcolor Lipstick
I do not wear a whole lot of lipstick, but when I do, I prefer the type that will stay put throughout the day because I do want cracked or faded lips, nor do I have the time to constantly re-apply lipstick. I have seen the Maybelline SuperStay …
NuFountain Vitamin C Serum
I had been hearing so much about vitamin C serums lately, so I decided to give it a try for myself. I am in my upper 30’s and my face is starting to show the effects of my past sins such as tanning and smoking. My skin …
White Rain Hair Spray
I was shopping in Walmart and needed some hairspray. White Rain was on sale for 99 cents. I bought the Maximum hold, pearberry boost, non-aerosol and am very pleased with it. It was first time I’d used a non-aerosol and it is so much easier to …
Earth Henna Body Tattooing Kit
My teen daughter has been begging for an ink tattoo. One problem is that in my state, you can’t get inked until you are 18, even with permission from the parents. The other problem is I do not think she is old enough to get a permanent tattoo yet. …
Aveda Confixor
At $17 for 8 oz this is one of the more expensive hair products I own. I believe it to be worth the price and each bottle lasts me long enough that I get more for my money than with a drug store brand. I have never …
Murad Exfoliating Acne Treatment Gel
Acne has been appearing on my face lately. I am sure nobody would be pleased having this experience. Not only does it make you feel uncomfortable, it also affects your self esteem a lot. I tried a couple of products but none of them seem to work as well …
Ms. Pedicure Foot File
Now that summer is here, my shoes are history and I am wearing a LOT of sandles. I have ugly feet, and I really wanted my feet to look like I have just had a pedicure. Not wanting to spend the money (and time) actually getting one, …
St. Ives Blemish and Blackhead Control Apricot Scrub
I’m fond of reading magazines and beauty articles and almost every one of them advised its readers against using a facial scrub—¦ the nitty-gritty kind. I even read an article from Glamour once written by a dermatologist about this whole don’t-scrub-your-face thingy. I was fond of using face scrubs …
San San 2 Way Cake Foundation
I’m not a fan of HBC. However, I find this product a must-have inside my cosmetics kit. I do not apply make-up so often but for special occasions, I carry this all along to add glamour and style. It’s not the visible make-up though but it builds up excellent …
Anew Clincial Retexturizing Peel
I really recommend anyone who is troubled by aging skin to try Avon’s Anew Clinical Advanced Retexturizing Peel. This peel is truly amazing. You can get it by going to www.avon.com or by calling your local Avon representative. Regular price for the peel is $25.00 for 30 …
Revlon Brow Fantasy Pencil & Gel Crayon Brown
I have really pathetic brows. There’s no other way to say it. I used to tweeze like crazy when I was a teenager, and I was never really taught the proper way to do it, which means that I now have virtually invisible eyebrows. I guess if you tweeze …
St. Ives Blemish & Blackhead Control Apricot Scrub
I’ve been using this product for years, and I still love it! I first bought this product because it was cheap. It was like $3 at the time. Plus it was a scrub and it had blemish and blackhead control. So I figured why not …
Philosophy Purity Made Simple Cleanser
My skin is combination-oily which is one of the worst types of skin to have in my opinion! I usually wake up in the morning at 5:45-6:00 am and wash my face, and by 9-10 am, my t-zone area (forehead, nose, and sometimes a little around my cheeks) will …
Eistein Lip Therapy Hydrating Lip Cream
Are your lips feeling generally dry? Do you get dried skin peeling on your lips? Then you should really try Eistein Lip Therapy Hydrating Lip Cream. I use this with their Cooling Lip Relief balm, and my lips are always so very soft and smooth. I …
Eos Lip Balm Sphere in Lemon Drop
I saw this egg shaped lip balm called Eos Lip Balm Sphere in Lemon Drop. I actually picked some up and gave it a try. I actually like the lemon flavor and scent it had and the way it lightly moisturized my lips. The lip balm container is a …
Almay Pure Blends Eye Shadow
In the summertime, all makeup, except waterproof types, seems to rub off or just disappear in the heat. I have the most trouble with eye shadow; it just seems to end up in the crease of my eye and make me look tired and clownish. I went to the …
Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Eyeliner
This is one of the coolest and most noticeable eye liners that you can buy. It really makes your eyes look daring and bold. I love most Maybelline products and this Eye Studio Gel Eyeliner is no exception. If you want an expensive look to your eye makeup for …
Block & White Intensive Whitening Lotion SPF 16 PA +
Lotions with SPF have certainly been around for a long time. But I was surprised to see that most body lotions nowadays have cranked up their SPF to a higher level. Notably, Block & White intensive whitening lotion now boasts an SPF of 16. My borderline …
Hortaleza Hair Cuticle Coat Leave-on
Having thick hair proves to be challenging in terms of keeping it straight and tangle-free. My shampoo plus conditioning treatments aren’t enough to keep it manageable. I’m not exactly a hair fiend and don’t like to spend much for some extra hair care but I deemed it …
Covergirl’s Lash Exact
It is an amazing mascara product. You assume it will turn out like other beauty products and leave clumps after promising long lases and no mess. Well this product keeps their promises! The end result is lashes which look just like Queen Latifah’s! Your lashes are left plump, long …
Chantecaille Brilliant Gloss in Mirth
Chantecaille’s Brilliant Gloss in Mirth is a very pink-peach color. It has very minimal, fine gold glitter. When wearing this, the glitter is not clearly visible under most circumstances. The pigmentation of this specific color is very sheer and lightweight. It evens out in color exceptionally. It doesn’t set …
ELF Eyelash Curler
I just needed a cheap eyelash curler, something that could just simply curl my lashes in a way that will not hurt my eyelids. I first looked for good reviews on which cheap eyelash curler to purchase and it led me to the ELF brand of cosmetics and tools.
ELF …
Bath & Body Works Sweet Pea Body Cream
My hands usually get extremely dry in the winter months. As I tend to wash them quite often, the dryness increases and worsens at work. Obviously I needed a small bottle of lotion to keep handy just for such occasions. I picked up Bath & Body Works Pleasures Sweat …
Bench Fix Clay Doh Molding Clay
I hate hair products. I do not like to weigh my hair down any further because I have very limp, lifeless hair. My only consolation is that I am using a hair dye by Loreal to make it a little lively. However when I had to style my hair …
Luster’s Pink Hair Lotion
Because my hair has been dry, brittle, and completely over processed, I’m always looking for products to bring moisture to my hair. My favorite is B n B moisturizer, but I tend to try other moisturizers between using B n B. One popular moisturizer that I’ve heard lot’s about …
Schwarzkopf Gliss Kur Hair Repair Shimmer Brown Shampoo
Recently I ran out of shampoo suddenly, and discovered it too late to run to the drugstore to buy my own Brand. Therefore, I had to choose among my sister’s selection, and in the end, decided on trying her Schwarzkopf Gliss Kur Shimmer Brown Shampoo. Since my hair …
Nichido Juicy Lips in Hawaiian Punch
This is the second best find I have made in the local makeup counters. So far I have reviewed Nichido Juicy Lips in Apple Cider and how it made my lip color become even and natural looking with its nude (but not washed out) look. This time I will …
Maybelline Lip Smooth Color & Care
I’m practically new to applying any furnish on my lips and I’m very glad that I found Maybelline Lip Smooth Color & Care. The packaging was pretty attractive and it encouraged me to give it a try even though there were a lot of lip products that sounds convincing …
Tousle Me Softly Mousse
I’ve always loved to twist, curl, and scrunch my long hair into a slightly wavy hairdo that looks both effortless and fun. Usually, I use a strong mousse and braid overnight to wake up with fresh curls. However, when I saw a commercial for the Tousle Me Softly collection …
Garnier Light Brightening Eye Roll-on
It took a routine inspection of myself in front of the mirror to realize that my bags are yet again on the loose - that goes to say, my eyes are drooping. I’ve just managed to endure long nights of hellish sleep deprivation, spending late hours in front …
Revlon Colorstay Eyeliner
I really do not like wearing eyeliners because I have very sensitive eyes and it usually does not stay long at my lash line. I do not have a steady hand and I get nervous when I apply eyeliner on my lash line. My eyes would end up watering …
MAC Eyeshadow
I have purchased several eyeshadow and I always try to experiment with the newest colors, styles, and trends. My favorite eyeshadow is MAC Eyeshadow which is only $14.50 in most stores and comes in more shades than I can count. I’ve tried several shades from their bright and daring …
Panrosa Makeup Removal Cleansing Foam
Panrosa Makeup Removal Cleansing Foam is something that I recently discovered during a trip to the Dollar Depot. This five ounce tube is one dollar to purchase so I figured why not and placed it in the cart to take home and give a shot. After all I’ve …
Avon Footworks Cherry Ice Cooling Foot Spray
The Footworks range from Avon was just available in the same scent for a good while. I like the products but the odd sort of Minty scent from the original range is a bit strange. There is a couple of different scents now in the range and this scent …
Boots No. 7 Stay Perfect Foundation
I recently purchased the Boots No. 7 Stay Perfect Foundation. I had never owned any foundation products from the Boots No. 7 line of makeup products so I decided to go out on a limb just to see if their foundation was good enough to perhaps replace my old …
Pond’s Flawless White Deep Whitening Facial Foam
I have some freckles on my face, and it really irks me when I have to put on concealer when my skin is already really pale, so sometimes my freckles just stand out as I don’t really put that much powder and concealer during daytime as my face would …
Clarins Instant Eye Make-up Remover
Waterproof mascara can be a real problem to remove. It is important to get a good brand. I would recommend Clarins (one of my favorite skincare brands besides Juvena and RoC) Instant Eye Make-up Remover.
This remover has oily consistency which some might find not very pleasant (particularly when it …
Dior Rinse off Cleanser
I have been working in the cosmetic industry for nearly five years now so I have tried virtually all of the skin care products on the market. I consider Dior’s Rinse off Cleanser to be one of the best due to the way it makes my skin feel after …
