Maybelline Dream Smooth Mousse Foundation Makeup
The texture of the Maybelline Dream Matte Mouse foundation makeup isn’t quite what I was hoping for. It’s soft and in between solid, power and liquid. I’m use to another brand of Maybelline foundation and wanted to try this one to see if it would be a worthy switch. …
Avon’s Replenishing Body lotion
Lotion is a must at my house. With winter fast approaching, I need to have a good quality lotion at all times. With the bonus size Skin So Soft Soft and Sensual Replenishing Body Lotion, I can do that.
I purchased the Bonus sized bottle for an intro …
Avon Eyeliner
I love making my eyes beautiful and the center of attraction in my face. I like using eyeliner to make my eyes pop. The first eyeliner that I tried was Avon eyeliner (brown). I liked putting it on cause it’s easy to use, it lines well in my …
Photo Ready Airbrush Mousse Foundation in Beige by Revlon
I purchased this product not too long ago from Walgreens for about seven dollars ($7.00). I had tried the previous version of Revlon’s Photo Ready foundation and received pretty good results from using it. I was not aware that they made a mousse version of the foundation …
Clearasil Daily Deep Cleansing Foaming Wash
When I working at one of my first jobs the environment was an extremely dusty one and I began to “suffer” from something I never had to deal with in my life (luckily!) and this was acne or pimples. I started to freak out at the way my face …
Philosophy Amazing Grace Perfumed Buffing Wash
Philosophy’s amazing grace buffing wash is my favorite scrub. I bumped into this body wash a few months ago with a friend while browsing through discounted products at a beauty sale. I certainly wouldn’t bother buying if it wasn’t for sale because of its original price, but …
Pantene Split-End Prevention Cream
My friend decided to grow her short hair long, and I was shocked how fast her hair grew and how healthy it looked. I finally asked her how she was managing this, and she told me that she had found this amazing product that was working like magic. It …
Garnier Belle Color
I wanted to touch up the color in my hair, but didn’t want to pay to have it done professionally. I chose Garnier’s Belle Color due to the price. At $9.99CDN, the cost was low enough that if I didn’t like it, I wouldn’t have wasted a …
Almay Lipstick
This product comes in a nice variety of shades and I found when I applied it that it was somewhat sheer which was quite nice. Intially it does have a bit of a scent, but it does not leave a burning sensation on your lips which is a …
Aveda Rosemary Mint Shampoo
I am generally not extremely picky about cosmetics or the type of shampoo I use, but after trying out many different brands, one stands out to me as outstanding. I received a sample of Aveda’s Rosemary Mint shampoo in the mail, and I absolutely loved it, so I bought …
Monistat Chafing Relief Powder-Gel as Face Primer
When I first heard that women were using Monistat as a dupe for face primer, my immediate response was, “People are putting what on their where?!” Failing to acknowledge that Monistat is a brand, not a specific product, I was picturing the brand’s vaginal cream for treating symptoms of …
Anew Revitalizing 2 in 1 Facial Cleanser by Avon
I like to feel pampered when I show even if I am only taking a quick one. I also like using a lot of Avon products because they give me that pampered feeling while also being easily affordable. Recently I purchased Avon’s Anew Revitalizing 2 in 1 …
St. Dalfour Cream
I first learned about this creme via Multiply. The seller claims it will solve all facial problems from age spots to wrinkles to pimples. It even showed “before” and “after” close-up pictures ot the cream’s users. There were also fifty-plus feedbacks, all of them raving about the …
Pop Beauty Eye Magnet Primer
I tried this eye primer because it was cheaper then the one that I had been using. Pop Beauty Eye Magnet Primer is not the best primer out there. The main thing is, its drys too fast and doesn’t leave enough time to blend it and that causes it …
Bliss Fabulous Foaming Face Wash
At only $22 for an 8 oz bottle, the Fabulous Face Wash is really fabulous! I like that it’s superior to other products in terms of cleaning properties and moisturizing effect. This product also doubles as a makeup remover and helps to combat acne. It lasts a long time …
Nichido Juicy Lips Lipstick in Apple Cider
Most people actually think that the cheaper the cosmetic is, the poorer it functions. I find this very unfair because I have had my share of bad and good products, and not every bad product is a cheap one. Take this for an example. I have bought me a …
Max Factor False Lash Effect Mascara
I’ve just discovered this Max Factor False Lash Effect Mascara. I bought this sometime last month at Rustan’s Supermarket. It costs me PHP695.
I bought this for occasional use actually. I am no the type who wears make-up everyday because I am already contented with lipstick and light pressed …
Mario Badescu Enzyme Cleansing Gel
I do a lot of online shopping on Ebay. The main reason why I love the website is that it enables me to try high quality products at really affordable prices. About two weeks ago I saw a listing for a brand new container of this product …
Avon naturals vanilla moisturizing shower gel
I am not a big fan of vanilla scented products as they tend to make me feel hungry. When a friend gave me a small bottle of Avon naturals vanilla moisturizing shower gel I didn’t think I would actually use it. I decided to give it a try, and …
Beauty Rush Lip Gloss by Victoria’s Secret
Victoria is the Queen of lingerie. It could almost be said that racy lingerie is synonomous with Victoria’s Secret. We’ve all walked past a VS store and slightly blushed at the provocative plastic beauties in the window wearing their unmentionables with sex and no shame. So when I noticed …
Mary Kay Eyeliner
I have always worn eyeliner, be it in pencil form or liquid. I believe it opens up your eye and gives it a more alluring appeal. I have tried quite a number of pencil eyeliners although I do prefer the liquid ones as I personally find they stay on …
Garnier Light Complete Multi-Action Whitening Cream
Garnier had manufactured a three-in-one face cream that would address common skin care problems. I had lots of skin concerns in my face. Sometimes I complain about dullness that is brought about by skin tone discoloration. When you are overly exposed to the sun your skin will really look …
MAC Slimshine
Price : SGD30
Colour : Funshine
Price : 1/5
I can’t understand why a middle-range makeup brand is selling at luxury prices in Singapore. Note also that the volume of this lipstick is much smaller than any other normal full sized lipstick.
Packaging : 4/5
Packaging is sexy sleek. Love it.
Texture : 4/5
Applies quite sheer …
Avon Solutions Vibes Wake Up Eye Roller
I have had 1 of these for about 2 months and although I go through spells of using it every day, often I forget. I therefore can’t be too hard and say that it doesn’t work, as I suppose you are meant to use this every day.
This was a …
Clinique Sun SPF 30 Face Cream
I love going to the beach especially during the weekends. I cannot completely define it but it makes me feel refreshed whenever I would feel and smell the sea breeze. I also love getting myself a natural tan as I read my favorite book along the shores of my …
Kelo-cote Advanced Formula Scar Gel
I bought Kelo-cote Advanced Formula Scar Gel, a scar treatment which cost around $10 online. It weighed 1.7 oz and was actually a pretty good scar treatment, I should say, because it helped heal the acne scars I used to have. In fact, I like it because it did …
Sinful Colors Professional Nail Polish
This is a pretty interesting fingernail polish to try. They have many color choices to choose from. My favorite is , Dream On. It is a very pretty purplish color. This nail polish is different from most others that I have tried. There are both pros and cons to …
Secret Scent Expressions Fabulously Floral Deodorant Gel
What it claims: Secret Scent Expressions Fabulously Floral Clear Gel Deodorant is said to provide invisible protection and advanced odor protection. It comes in a crystal clear gel with a fruity floral scent.
The product: It comes in a clear light blue 2.7 ounce bottle with flowers on the front. …
Stila Brow Duo
I have recently become very obsessed with my eye brows. I find that having perfectly shaped and shaded eyebrows help to frame the face. During the past two months, I have purchased various pencils, waxes, and powders in my quest to achieve perfectly done eyebrows. Although …
Veet Warm Wax
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve recommended this waxing kit to my friends and family, it’s that great! Now I’m a fairly private person, so the thought of getting a Brazilian wax with by stranger is kind of out of the question for me. But things like …
Cetaphil Facial Cleanser
I recently began using Cetaphil Facial Cleanser at the suggestion of my dermatologist. I had previously used cleansers that were designed for oily skin and acne, which my doctor told me were only drying out my skin causing my face to produce even more oil. So, even …
John Frieda Smooth Start Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner
I recently got my hands on a free sample of John Frieda’s Smooth Start Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner and decided to try it last night. I have been a loyal customer of John Frieda products, and already assumed it would be spectacular. Let me start by saying that I …
Listerine Whitening Pre-Brush Rinse Clean Mint
This Listerine product and the Crest 3D White Whitening Rinse Fresh Mint both proved to be bad news for me. Just like the Crest product, my gums did not react well to this Listerine product. Now my gums are healthy, and when I use other mouth rinses, like ACT …
Lasting Finish Intense Wear Lipstick by Rimmel
I love Lasting Finish Intense Wear Lipstick by Rimmel. I have some of their other lipstick products, including the 1000 Kisses Stay On Lip Liner and the Rich Moisture Cream Lipstick, but might be my favorite. Again, I like Rimmel cosmetics because they are not expensive, and …
Member’s Mark Antibacterial Anti-Drip Liquid Soap
We bought this at a Duty Free shop and seeing as it had an anti-drip formula, we just had to try and test it out if it really works as washing your hands and just shaking them off before you wipe them can be time-consuming and whoever wants wet …
MAC lipglass in C-Thru
I originally purchased MAC lipglass in C-Thru as part of a three lipglass combo set from a cosmetics outlet store. It was paired with MAC Prrr, my favorite MAC lipglass, and MAC Nico lipglass, another lipglass that I was fond of. MAC C-Thru lipglass is a milky, …
Bath & Body Works Black Amethyst Body Lotion
I bought this lotion to be added to my massage-lotion collection as I wanted more relaxing scents and not only fruity scents; I needed lavender and musky scents as they are most apprpriate when having massages and this Black Amethyst smell was really something else!
At first when I tested …
Body Essence Tea Tree Oil Body Wash
This gel is a fabulous body wash!! The label states it is ultra moisturizing and it is! The description does not lead one to believe the fragrance would be anything special, but that is so wrong. This body wash is one of the most attractive, invigorating scents I have …
Yoko Whitening Spa Salts Cucumber
This is the first spa or bath salt that I ever tried. I was curious to try it when I saw at its package that it whitens underarms, bikini area, and other dark areas on the body. I decided to try it because I have dark underarms, elbows, and …
The Body Shop Vitamin E Lip Balm
I am prone to cracked lips especially since I work in an airconditioned environment. I have tried a lot of lip balms but most of them made my lips feel oily and heavy. Then when I go out where it’s warm, my lips feel really war and sticky as …
Avon Dry End serum
About a year ago I decide to let my hair grow long because it was very popular back than and a lot of girls even put extensions in their hair. I didn’t want to do that because that just wouldn’t be my hair and I’d feel strange. Then my …
Ever Bilena Pro- Flawless Finish Foundation Gold
Ever Bilena Pro Flawless foundation is a long lasting foundation that dries faster than most foundations. But not too fast that you don’t get to blend it well. What I hate about other quick drying foundations I’ve used is that they dry even before I get the right blend, …
Intuition Razor
I bought an intuition razor at Sam’s Club with refills included. I have to admit it was expensive but I thought it might be worth it. I love the aloe vera and lotion that is all around the blade part of the razor. It really does condition …
Schwarzkopf Igora Color Toner
I have been working in the cosmetic industry for years so I am familiar with the company Schwarzkopf as a respectable company that produces effective hair products. I have used their shampoos and conditioners in the past with desirable results. Therefore, I decided to try their color toner product …
Juice Beauty Green Apple Cleansing Gel
Juice Beauty Green Apple Cleansing Gel - just the name sounds so appealing. That is why while browsing my local Sephora store I simply had to purchase it. I love the idea of natural products and the name of this company is a clear indicator that they are big …
The Bodyshop Sugaring wax (Hair Removal)
Before trying this product, I was used to either using the Hand warming strip variety or having all required waxing done in a salon. I must say I really loved this product.
First of all the wax itself has a luxury eco-friendly smell to it. It’s very sweet smelling. It …
L’Oreal One Sweep Eye Shadow
A friend of mine told me about an eye shadow she was using lately, and the way she talked about it, I thought it sounded great. So, I bought myself the kind she was raving about, L’Oreal One Sweep Eye Shadow. I bought # 50GD00 which is …
Liftactiv Retinol-A HA Total Anti-Wrinkle Daily Cream (Vichy)
Vichy has been a trusted name among women for a long time. I can certainly say it has been a favorite with me for some fifteen years now. (In fact, their products are the only ones I use apart from my own essential oil home-made concoctions.)
One of the many …
