Soft Sheen Breakthru Hair Lotion
I bought this hair lotion because I have very dry, rather brittle hair (due to chemical processing). Soft Sheen Breakthru is a moisturizing hair lotion which promises to reduce the amount of breakage that occurs due to heat styling, and chemical processing. While many product claim to …
Blue 65 cm Puncture Resistant Exercise Ball With Hand Pump
I actually bought a few fitness balls in the past, including Blue 65 cm Puncture Resistant Exercise Ball which was bought online worth $20. It was made by Blue but because they lasted only for a little while, and so I need to buy another one which would last …
Mac Studio Fix Foundation
I have been using this foundation for a few months already and I love it. I have heard so many bad things about this foundation, saying that it makes them break-out and that its way too cakey or doesn’t provide enough coverage. Well this did not happen to me. …
Aveeno Daily Moisturizer Ultra Calming SPF 15
I recently tried Aveeno Daily Moisturizer Ultra Calming SPF 15 and I must say I wasn’t very impressed with it at all. I found it made my skin really oily and it cause a lot of acne spot breakouts. When I washed my face and applied the facial cream …
Nizoral Shampoo 2 %
Nizoral is the ideal solution for dandruff sufferers. It is a shampoo which fights dandruff but also helps to remove other unpleasant skin infections, caused by fungi. Its active ingredient is ketoconazole. When I started using Nizoral I treated my hair twice a week in the course of 4 …
Super Sweet Makeover Kit
Super Sweet makeover kit is a kit from e.l.f cosmetics for young girls. Overall I wouldn’t recommend this gift. I say save your money and buy another gift that someone will actually use. The only products in this gift that someone would use are the mascara, eyeliner, eye shadow, …
Benefit Get Bent Mascara
This has to be the most unusual mascara that I have ever come across ! Benefit Get Bent mascara describes the product perfectly, the angled brush is definitely different from any other mascara that I have used lately.
I love Benefit cosmetics, you may pay a bit more for them …
Dry Mouth Care Mouthwash Biotene Brand 250ml
Biotene Dry Mouth Care Mouthwash is the mouthwash to go if you cannot stand the extremely strong menthol of most brands, and the scathing alcohol content. I have often wondered if there was an alcohol-free mouthwash, because the alcohol content was really bothering me.
Although I find Scope Outlast …
Dr Hauschka Inner Glow Lipstick (Shade: Red Quartz)
My favourite cosmetic item has always been lipstick, so I was very excited when a friend gave me a set of Dr Hauschka lipsticks that were only released a few weeks ago as part of their Spring 2012 collection. The shade I am reviewing today is Red Quartz, a …
L’Oreal Men Expert Hydra Sensitive 24 Hour Moisturizer
If you are looking for total moisturizing feel that really lives up to its promise, I would surely recommend L’Oreal Men Expert Hydra Sensitive 24 Hour Moisturizer. Skin care comes with variety of things that you can do and what kind of skin type you have. Oftentimes dry skin …
Eucerin White Solution Gentle Cleansing Foam
I use a host of cleansers to keep my skin clear of acne. A bulk of these products probably consists of acids, and the general effect of having to use them everyday could be summed up by parched, dry skin. There’s nothing wrong about that if you …
Dior show Marscara
The mascara, which I am using at present, is good and I am feeling it nice. But once I had been to the parlour and there I met my friend who had come for party makeup and the beautician used the Diorshow mascara on her eyelashes. Before she …
M.A.C. Penultimate Eyeliner
I have officially found the only liquid eyeliner that has ever worked for me! The M.A.C. Penultimate eyeliner is the the all time best liquid eyeliner, primarily because it is easy to use and leaves a beautiful, polished line. What I love most about this eyeliner is …
Mederma Stretch Marks Therapy
I bought Mederma Stretch Marks Therapy online. I used to have stretch marks because of sudden weight gain and because of this I wanted to get rid of them. They cost $39, weighing 5.29 oz.
I received the 4 tubes each weighing around 5.29 oz through local delivery service. It …
Dermablend professional cover creme,light
The dermablend professional cover creme,light is a great foundation tool used to cover my face’s blemishes like dark ring circles under the eyes or even pimples or scars on my face. The reason I chose dermablend professional cover creme,light over other set of professional cover creme was because …
Nivea Kiss of Sunshine Lip Gloss
I am very particular about lip gloss because everything that I have gotten up to this point has been such a hit or miss, mostly miss unfortunately. I do not like there to be a whole lot of color in my lip gloss as I do not wear make-up …
Max Factor Silk Gloss
I decided to try Max Factor Silk Gloss spontaneously, when I was in a store looking for my usual lip gloss which I didn’t found that day. As I was in a hurry I didn’t think much what to choose instead and because Silk Gloss seemed really similar to …
Chance from Chanel
I am an old school Chanel wearer, so I have never tried one of their newer scents till I had the chance to try Chance. I think they are trying really hard to stay true to the original Chanel scents and just trying to change up the original …
Gatsby Styling Gel
It’s a era of fashion and everyone would like to look good from head to toe. We use plenty of cosmetics on and other fashion ware just for that extra bit of attraction, everyone from a child to a grown up is mad about fashion these days and I …
The Judith August Everything Pencil Covers Dark Circles and More
I have had dark circles under my eyes since I was a child. Over the years I experimented with most of the cover up products on the market, but could never find one I could live with.
About two years ago I found the Judith August website. The Everything Pencil …
Avon Tropics Shower Gel
I certainly have a thing for Shower Gels, and this is one of my favourites out there. I have been using this one for years and although I keep trying new ones, I always end up back to my old favourite.
The 1 thing i’m not all that keen on …
Not Soap, Radio -The Phoenix Bubbles for Bath or Shower
I love bathing products and I have been swimming in a pool full of bathing products for a while now. I love to pamper myself and find bathing products a little addictive. I usually frequent beauty salon and spa once a week or at least twice a month. Thus …
ELF Brightening Eyeliner (Gilded)
I used to wear a lot of dark makeup around my eyes. Because my eyeliner was already very smudged and thick, it didn’t really matter how nice the brad was, because it was very smudged already, and there really wasn’t going to be any other possible way that it …
MiCabella Cosmetics
I wouldn’t say I am a big makeup fan, but the makeup that I do own is some of the best. Working in restaurants all day where you are running around, in the heat of the kitchen etc your face tends to melt off. Makeup doesn’t last long, yet …
Purist Naturals Oil Control Citrus Moisturizer
I have tried more cosmetics and facial skin care products than I care to count over the years, and I’ve been disappointed with some and mildly surprised by some to down right ecstatic by others. But, even when I’m happy with a product, that doesn’t stop me from trying …
Aveda Smooth Infusion Style Prep Smoother
I have fine hair that gets droopy at times. I color my hair too, so I like to use hair products that moisturize, but don’t weigh down my hair due to its fine texture.
Enter Aveda Smooth Infusion Style Prep Smoother. After I’ve shampooed and conditioned, I begin …
L’Oreal Color Riche Lipstick Glam Rose Collection Baby Rose 632
I was looking for something new this year that I happened to know about this new lipstick collection from L’Oreal. I am not sure if this collection is very new, but I honestly can say that I have not seen this collection before. There are five types of …
Dermalogica Sheer Tint Moisturizer SPF1
I am big of lotions. Several years ago someone gave me this lotion. When it was first given to me I just stashed it into a drawer. I guess because I wasn’t sure what it was or what it could do. I’ve dealt with dry skin for as long …
L’Oreal The One Sweep Eye Shadow 819 Natural for All Eyes
I am a huge fan of L’Oreal cosmetics and their skin care line. I love doing my eyes in neutral eye shadow’s; wearing just enough color to give them a glow and leave people wondering whether or not I am actually wearing eye shadow at all. I had …
Wet ‘n’ Wild Color Icon Blush in ‘Pearlescent Pink’
Wet ‘n’ Wild is not a widely available brand in my country, so you can imagine my joy when I found a stand of this brand at a random local store. I’d heard a lot about many of their products, but the one that kept coming up was the …
Physicians Formula Talc-Free Mineral Wear
What attracted me to this product is that word “mineral”. You hear and see a lot of infomercials about how well mineral makeup blends with your skin to produce a flawless look. And although liquid foundation works well and claims not to clog your pores, my common …
Redken All Soft Shampoo
I have natural or chemical free African American hair that has a tendency to be very dry. Based on my personal experience, it does not matter whether I use a volumizing shampoo or a moisturizing one, my hair ends up becoming tangled and dehydrated. I have tried …
C.O. Bigelow Mentha Cinnamint Lip Shine
One of my favorite conditioning lip glosses to use is C.O. Bigelow Mentha Cinnamint Lip Shine. It has a really yummy cinnamon and mint flavor and aroma to it and contains several moisturizing ingredients that help hydrate and soften my lips. I even like the easy to squeeze tube …
Napoleon Perdis Swept Away collection
This review is for Napoleon Perdis Swept Away collection. I have a few items from this collection and I will go through them telling you my impression in this review.
Napoleon Perdis brightens up the cold weather outside being made in Australia, and I have to say that it was …
Block & White Whitening Soap
I used this long enough about four months to know that it works to lighten the complexion. I recommend this to anybody who has normal skin; but not to those whose skin has the tendency to dry. Although it has moisturizer, it doesn’t help that much. And you will …
Neutrogena Pore Refining Cleanser
On its own, this is a great pore refining concoction. But you may want to invest in a good sunblock, as the active ingredient AHA or Alpha Hydroxyl Acid increases the skin’s sensitivity to the sun. I have had numerous sunburns because I failed to read the instructions carefully. …
VICHY Skin Care
Vichy is a cosmetics company with a well-established reputation all over Europe, but has only recently started its “conquest” of the USA and other overseas markets.
Its products can only be bought in pharmacies (which is probably a very good marketing ploy, conveying the impression of “medically endorsed efficacy”).
Their products are …
Cover Girl Lash Blast Volume Blasting Mascara
I have had trouble with mascara many times in the past because my eyelashes are numerous but thin, so it makes finding a good mascara that works on them very difficult. I have finally found the perfect mascara to make my thin eyelashes look full: Cover Girl Lash Blast …
Certain Dri Roll On Deodorant
One thing that I hate is how I have a major sweating problem. Ever since I was in high school I’ve been trying to think of ways to keep from ruining my shirts. There are countless times where I have ruined my favorite shirts because of unsightly sweat stains! …
NYX Smokey Look Lip Gloss
I am so happy that I purchased this lip gloss, it definitely was a great buy! This season, I’ve been looking for a lot of pale colors and neutral colors of lip gloss, lipsticks, blush, eyeshadow, etc! I try not to be too bold for the calmer seasons, like …
AcneFree Skin Routine
I have combination skin which means I usually get acne on my forehead. And as an added bonus, I have side bangs, which cause more acne because of my hair always covering my skin. I have tried numerous acne products like Neutrogena, Clean & Clear, and St. Ives Apricot …
Avon’s Shimmering Body Powder
I love to use different types of smell good products especially for the scent and the freshness it makes you feel after using certain body powders. I use to use the baby powder because of the fresh scent but often thought that I was using a baby product and …
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, …
Fresh High Noon Freshface Glow
This has just a hint of color in it. I apply self tanner on my body but I’m a little hesitant to apply to my face because I worry about streaking, looking orange, to dark etc so I just use a powder bronzer so I don’t look paler than …
Florrence Gunnerson Nars Orgasm Pinky Peach Blush
I received this as a birthday gift a few years back and since I thought that it was a pretty shade I decided to try it. I have to admit though that the word orgasm in the shade name did intrigue me a little as was a major driving …
Adidas Fruity Rhythm Body Spray
I got this as part of a set for my recent Birthday. I don’t tend to use Adidas scented products much thesedays. I know they are quite cheap and also the scent of most of the range is really nice, but I tend to associate the brand more for …
RDL Whitening Soap
Filipino skin is better told as drier than American people, perhaps because of the climate of the country near the equator. It is a struggle to keep the skin moist and tender and whiter in complex and since Filipina women are tanned in color, they wanted more shine through …
St. Ives Mineral Therapy Body Wash
Recently I came across an attractive looking body wash that I was very interested to try. It was St. Ives Mineral Therapy body wash. Although I did not know much about this product, I must admit I was seduced by the packaging and advertising. Mineral therapy sounds wonderful, and …
