Nars Lipgloss in Turkish Delight
I am on the hunt for the perfect lipgloss, and unfortunately I haven’t found it yet. I want a lipgloss that is long lasting and has the perfect amount of shine, while still being pretty pigmented. I am definitely opposed to sheer glosses. I decided to try the Nars …
Nivea Deodorant Sensitive Balm for Extra Sensitive Skin
I’m not really a deodorant fan but whenever I feel like using one, I use Nivea deodorants mainly because they don’t stain my clothes like most deodorants do. I notice with other brands like rexona that my shirt turn disgustingly yellowish on the area beneath the armpits.
Right now …

Olive Oil Shower Gel by Yves Rocher

Blistex Medicated Berry Balm SPF 15

Maybelline Forever Strong Pro Nail Varnish in Silver Plum

Olay Regenerist Anti-Aging Eye Roller (Cosmetics)
I have tried two different eye roller products that claim to make your under-eye area look less puffy, dark and tired. I have found that they have a limited effect on my tired, swollen eyes; they certainly have a cooling effect, but that only lasts briefly. It is a …
Loreal Color Rays Fuschia
I have a very thick and very good hair and I love to color my hair. But I don’t apply any normal or ordinary kind of hair colors, which may cause my hair damage. The only product, which I trust with closed eyes, is the Loreal Color …

Revlon Colorstay Ultimate Liquid Lipstick

Neutrogena Oil-Free Anti-Acne Moisturizer
Almost each time I would get acne, I would use a moisturizer because it can help soften the skin and hydrate it, when I was using a tough Benzoyl Peroxide treatment. One of the moisturizers I used was Neutrogena Oil-Free Anti-Acne Moisturizer which cost only $12 and weighed 1.7 …

Aussie Catch The Wave Conditioner
Having curly hair can sometimes be a pain. I can’t do anything really to keep it from getting frizzy (brushing, coming, etc.). This makes it difficult at times to control and keep looking alright. Most conditioners are often aimed at straight hair or those who want volume, which is …

Avon Skin So Soft Summersoft Refreshing Body Wash

Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm
Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm was one of several cosmetic items given to me by my Aunt. I look up its price online and its quite expensive for a lip balm. It costs around US$4. I heard a lot of positive feedback about this item from some friends who …
Lancome Blush Papier Nacre Blushing Sheets

Rimmel Super wear 10 day wear topcoat
When I first discovered Rimmel cosmetic brand I was in love. I especially loved their mascara and 60 second drying lycra nail polishes. Years later I found out that they tested on animals and I stopped buying their products. I can almost understand testing on animals for medicine purposes …
Fruit of the Earth Aloe Vera Gel
When it comes to hair products, gel is usually something that I do not use. The reason I don’t usually use it is because I don’t like the way it makes my hair so stiff and how it is hard to remove after I put it in. I am …

Philosophy Amazing Grace 3 in 1

Mac Embark Matte Eyeshadow
This eyeshadow is quite expensive for my tastes, it costs around $14.50 or P610 and for one colour, it can be expensive but it has a really nice shade and it is highly-pigmented, so it stays on for hours and you won’t have to apply this and actually save …

Olay Regenerist Micro-sculpting Cream
My mom swears by Olay, and I trust her, because her skin is so dewy and glowy, even when mine is flaking off in the winter winds (I’m kidding! But it’s a scary thought). In order to make my wallet happy, I usually end up prowling the aisles of …
John Freida Blondest Blonde Go Blonder Conditioner

Baby Bench Cologne
My kids are both overly playful and so they come home sweaty most of the time. But you’ll be surprised that they never came home smelly. That is because they’ve been wearing Baby Bench Cologne. The smell really lasts on skin and on clothes. I’ve been using this product …
