The Product
I bought this in a 25 mL bottle. The bottle itself has a round white screw cap and a glass bottle with roll-on ball on top.
The scent is like oranges but dries down to a powdery scent.
The texture is creamy white and quite sticky, but dries quite …

This is my first review of a Victoria Jackson product here, but it’s not because I don’t love it. In fact, I absolutely adore just about every item Victoria Jackson has produced. I’m not really a big makeup wearer anymore, but back in the day, I turned …

Whenever you get a breakout you want something that works effectively and fast. Well, one day I decided to try Clearasil Ultra Acne Treatment Cream.
It claims to work quite well, but for me it did not do so. What it did do was dry out my skin. This …

Every once in awhile, I really splurge on a makeup item. The most recent of these splurges was the Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat, which is basically a makeup pen that is designed to brighten the skin. Most people use it in the under eye area to make the …

I tried many shampoos in the past 5 years, switching from one shampoo to another. I tried Pantene, Head And Shoulders, Rejoice and so many other brand names that I can’t remember anymore, but somehow something was still missing. My scalp is actually on the sensitive side so it …

Recently I was shopping and needed to pick up some more hairspray since I was running low on my regular brand. The store I went to was all out of my regular hair spray, so I decided to just pick up the cheapest hair spray I could find …

I got this mini tube of Estee Lauder lip gloss as part of a bonus that came with a purchase. I believe it was at Nordstrom. I think this shade of gloss (Honey) was put in the gift, because the intention was that it should be paired up with …

There are only few anti-aging serums that I have tried but I have never experienced something from an exclusive line for men. Zirh is not a new brand to me, I have experience their bar soap and some other stuff. The only thing I was really curious about is …

Bourjois Chocolate Bronzing Powder is one of my favourite bronzers. I love the fact that it actually looks like a bar of chocolate which makes it unique and different to other bronzers. I thik it’s great that it has this beautiful scent of chocolate too. I normally prefer cosmetics …

Equate: Acne Medication Blackhead Clearing Scrub did not work for me. I used an entire bottle of this stuff and I pretty much witnessed precisely no change at all in the blackheads that I do have. I also noticed that after using this scrub for a little while, my …

I confess… I’m a skincare junkie and always up for trying something new to enhance my 50-something appearance. I love primers so I was happy to try a sample tube of the Nars primer. I’ve heard a lot of good things about Nars.
I’ve tried …

This brush claims to brush hair causing as little damage as possible while also massaging your scalp. It can be purchased in a variety of different and fun colours.
The product brushes through my hair very easily, my hair gets extremely tangled after washing and it seems to detangle …

I don’t curl my hair that often but I have quite a few curl hair products for when I do, some of which I even use on my straight hair and they work just as great. I bought this Tresemme Flawless Curls Mousse when my local HEB was having …

I bought Avon Naturals Whitening UV SPF 15 Day Cream last year from an Avon dealer when it was on sale. Its regular price is PhP155 (Philippine Peso) or around US$3.6. I was able to purchase this item at a much lesser price. I bought it at only PhP99 …

I just tried something new and different. Guess what? I got more than what I bargained for. Thanks to a tube of Vickery and Clarke Facial Scrub, cleaning my face is more than just getting rid of dry skin. It is cleaning from deep within.
Vickery and Clarke has one …

While I had been eyeing the Neutrogena Intense Repair Body Balm for a long while, it was out of my range due to its rather high price. Eventually, I received a big tube of the Body Balm as a gift.
 
On the whole, I am quite satisfied with this product. …

A few months ago, while I was looking for a special nail polish I noticed Rimmel London Lasting Finish Nail Polish. I took a look at the available colors and I saw one that captivated me. It was exactly what I was looking for. I bought it as soon …

“O-m-g! You’re glowing!” “Your skin looks awesome!” “Did you get a facial?” “What are you using on your face?”
I’m usually fairly grumpy when returning to work after one week off. But who could be grumpy when receiving compliments like these? I lost …

I enjoy marine scents, so when I found High Seas Body Wash on sale for only $1.99CDN I bought it due to the great scent. I could actually smell the ocean in this body wash and I couldn’t wait to suds up with it. Little did I know I …

I decided to buy this conditioner after I noticed the effects of swimming in the pool all the time. My hair had become dryer than usual, and the ends were so fried that they were crunchy. This was from swimming day after day and not always taking …

Now that the holiday season is fast-approaching, I was looking for a few beauty products that would add a bit of sparkle for the holiday parties and festivities, and get me out of a rut of neutral colours. I decided to ask my friend, who is the biggest fashionista …

Sainsbury’s Sweet Clementine Bath & Shower Gel is part of the major supermarket chain’s increasingly large selection of own label bathroom cosmetics. Not all of the range has proved to be particularly successful, but in the event I found this specific product to be very good indeed, perhaps among …

I am a Body Shop user. I love the products. Especially the deodorant that I’m reviewing now, White Musk Anti Perspirant Deodorant. Before I didn’t use deodorant so often, well, I tried a couple of brands, but then I decided not to use it anymore. Why? because it’s sticky …

This is the first time I have ever tried to use a perfumed deodorant stick from a designer brand line. I often use the traditional sprays and sticks which are available in the supermarkets which are adequate but do not make me feel pampered and special.
I always love the …

I am usually not a fan of strong scented lip wear unless the smell really good. Philosophy’s Coffee House lip set is one of my favorite. I am a big coffee fan for starters and I can safely say I can not leave without coffee. I usually have my …

I had a very good experience with my previous sunscreen until it started breaking me out. That enough was a credible cue for me to stop using the product. I didn’t have problems using it occasionally for beach trips since I don’t typically wear heavy-duty sunscreen every …

I had this weird spots on my face, actually they were blemishes from old pimples and other what nots that made my face look like it was polka dot. I just saw the ad on TV, and decided to try out the Detox Cleanser. I have high regard for …

I am always on the look out for a good mascara. I try most of the new mascaras that come out if I can afford it, and hence, drugstore brands like Maybelline, which always comes out with new mascara products, are something that I keep a keen eye out …

My dry frizzy hair bothers me a lot especially when humidity is high because it won’t stay in place and I would sometimes look like a poodle (I have thick long wavy hair). At times, especially in the summer, I had to cut my hair very short and dab …

Maybelline’s new 24HR Color Tattoos claim to be a “cream gel shadow” that will stay put all day without primer. While Maybelline claims these are eyshadows, I feel like this works a lot better as eye shadow bases, unless you like to wear one color of shadow, which most …

My friend gave me this Benefit Dear John Facial Cream for my birthday and I was really excited to get to use it. I had seen it before but I had never bought it for myself and I really loved Benefit cosmetics and most of the products that I’ve …

I love this stuff.. I have long thick curly hair, that gets frizzy. This stuff makes it all soft and gorgeous, makes you want to run your fingers through it all day. The smell is soo yummy, you’ll want to eat your hair,lol. …

Garnier has a great line of hair products, but I was a little sketchy to by this because I had never used any of their skin products before. It turns out that my skepticism was warranted. I’m a little disappointed in the product.
The product is made with Vitamin …

My wish to own a Givenchy eye shadow has finally been granted. It’s time to spill what I think about the le prisme eye shadows. I think the Givenchy team really deserves some merits (and that explicably shows in the price tag!) for their smart approach at …

One of my biggest issues with using a toner is that they really tend to dry out my face. Knowing this my sister recommend that I use Avalon Organics Lavender hydrating Toner. She bought me a small sample so I could try it. It has natural ingredients like …

This is what I use as loose powder to set my foundation and as a body deodorant.
Although these days there are so many body sprays and expensive loose powders I find that the Pond’s Sandal talc is most effective and economical. While body sprays are easy …

My husband bought me Avalon Organics Bath & Shower Gel in Lavender, knowing what a huge fan of anyting Lavender I am.
This product has to be the best natural cleansing product I have owned, and I was pleased to discover that Avalon is a Canadian company. I have never …

For a complexion plagued with bumpiness, you need to create the illusion of clarity by applying a creamy oil-free foundation all over our face. Then if its not enough, stipple another layer over broken-out areas. Normally you do this when your skin is rough, flawed or has uneven skin …

I’ve already reviewed 1 of the Avon Shower Smoothie products and that one would have to be my favourite one, but this is my 2nd favourite and I would say there probably isn’t that much in choosing between the both of these. There is 3 in the range and …

Make Up For Ever 12 Flash Color Case is known as a ‘must have’ of make up artists and I heard a lot of good things about this product. It seemed very expensive so I wasn’t too sure if it’s going to be worth the money but I’m happy …

This mascara sure has a long name, but it is worth remembering. It does curl your lashes, you will notice them go up as soon as you start applying the product. However, the consistency of this mascara is rather thin, you will need two applications if you want to …

Continuing on with the Avon Clearskin professional range I will review this product now. I have used all the products in the range and find that they work well. My skin isn’t all that great and in the past I have found that the ranges that are more aimed …

Personally I wash my hands during the day. Whether it be because I touched something dirty, sneezed, got something on my hands or whatever else my hands come up against. There are times when I have a good moisturizer and other days where I am stuck out and have …

I have been using Tea Tree Oil from The Body Shop since before I even knew what facial toner was. In the 10 years that I have been using Tea Tree Oil Daily Facial Toner, my skin has been clear and …

I have been working in the cosmetic industry for over five years now so I am always trying the latest cosmetics and skin care products. I am able to recognize immediately what works and what does not work. Fresh has always been a skin care company that I have …

I don’t own that many products from Revlon, but honestly I’m going to start avoiding their eye products! Liquid eyeliner is not a cosmetic thing I use often, I like using my pencil better because I’m less likely to get smudging, and I feel that it’s much easier. I …

I keep saying here that I am not into whitening my face but one time that I have no other choice; I was forced to by Pond’s White Glow Lightening Facial Foam. It has Pro Vitamin B 3 that is essential in removing dark skin. I use it every …

1. For the price and packaging: I have been using The Face Shop’s Dewy Flower Moist Loose Powder for months now, since I bought it last October 2010. Since the packaging is in quite a big powder container of 25 grams, I think this will last me for at …

My is always dry and very flaky. I recently picked up a seven fluid ounce bottle of the Vaseline Intensive Care Cocoa Butter Vitalizing Gel Body Oil that contains Brazilian Nut and almond oils, but I have to say this body oil was tricky to use because of the …

Simple cleansing lotion is in my exerience the best make up remover I have ever used. As a brand in general Simple outshines the rest. I as im sure many of you are am very used to arriving home after a night out and being far to tired to …
