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, …

Perfect Formula Pink Gel Coat for nails

Clinique Different Lipstick in Raspberry Glace

Gillette Simply Venus Razors

Neutrogena Blackhead Eliminating Daily Scrub

Natural Collection Colour Foundation

L’Oreal Hydrafresh Anti-Shine Icy Gel
Before using this moisturizer, I had been a faithful user of L’Oreal Hydrafresh All Day Hydration Aqua Essence.

Maja Blush On Almudena color

Make Up For Ever Face & Body Liquid Makeup

St. Ives Elements Microderm-abrasion Facial Exfoliant

Avon Colour Trend orange squash (lolly pop lip balm)
My mum bought this for me and I have to say it works really well. There are so many lip balms out there at the shops but half of them are utterly useless. Some have nice colours but don’t moisturise your lips and others dry out 10 minutes after …
Sally Hansen Maximum Strength Moisturizing Polish Remover
Hello,
This polish remover is not exactly the maximum strength remover that it claims to be as if you have more than 2 coats of polish on your finger nails, it becomes a little hard to remove your polish all in one go. I have to dunk my cotton ball …
Neutrogena oil-free eye makeup remover
Makeup is easy to put on, but the real trick is taking it off. I useually wear more mascara and eyeliner than anything else. And of course, after the night is over I have to drag myself to take it off.
I purchased Neutrogena oil-free eye makeup remover, hoping …
Sephora Super Shimmer Lip Gloss- Hot Coral
The only reason I rated this so low was because it’s a case of “buyer beware”. From the picture they showed on their website, this appeared to be more of a red color, or at least a dark burgundy. Since I have dark hair with pale skin, I like …
Clear Men Activsport antidandruff shampoo
I have tried using different kinds of anti-dandruff shampoos and I guess most of them are quite effective though most of them usually leave my hair too dry.

Watson’s Oil Control Roll
It is really embarrassing when you’re in the mall enjoying your shopping and when at the end of the day, you decide to pay the comfort room a visit, and you would see your face shining. You could only imagine how many people have seen that face, that oily …
Neutrogena On the Spot Acne Treatment Vanishing Formula
This acne treatment formula does seem to work in reducing the number of pimples that pop up in trouble spots for me, like the nose, but while it effectively reduces the number of pimples that develop, it unfortunately deals me a new problem that’s almost as unsightly and embarrassing: …
Old Spice Odor Blocker Body Wash in Deo Fresh
I always loved smelling this on my brother. It has that kind of fresh cucumber-musk accord, every time I smell it on him. The smell just wafts out of the shower room, tickling my penchant for fragrances. Old Spice Odor Blocker is a macho body wash, …
L’Occitane Gel Douche Lavender (Organic Shower Gel)
I received a small bottle of L’Occitane Gel Douche Lavender (Bath Gel) from a friend. My first impression was, “Wow, this looks expensive..” Yup, if you can’t pronounce it, it’s probably expensive. I have read wonderful reviews about the L’Occitane brand but have never tried any of their products …
Clear - Anti Dandruff Scalp Oil Control Shampoo
This shampoo is probably one of my best buys! I only discovered it late last year. Being a loyal Pantene and Dove user, I never really cared about other products. Not until I had dandruff problem, which never happened to me before.
Mind you, my dandruff was quite severe …
IN2IT Light Reflecting Liquid Eyeliner (Turquoise)
I haven’t had much experience with the IN2IT products. A long while back I had bought their felt tip liquid eyeliner and didn’t like it that much because although it said water and smudge proof it did smudge.
The prices of their products however are very affordable and I …
Maybelline Clear Smooth Shine Free Face Powder

MD Formulations Adult Anti-Blemish Kit

Biore Pore Perfect Pore Unclogging Scrub

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Nail Polish
I have a good deal of expectation when I spend money on a nail polish. Everything has to be just right, the nail polish must be easy to apply, refrain from chipping for a reasonable amount of time, and have a solid color that looks as good on …
