Revlon ColorBurst Lipstick in Soft Nude
The common misconception with nude lipsticks is that they’re hard to pull off or that they make you look dead. True, if you wear an extremely light, concealer-esque color, you will look dead, so you need to make sure you’re using the right nude color. A great tip to …

Lancome Le Lipstique Lipcoloring Stick with Brush
I’m usually not a fan of lipcolor, in the past I have always stuck to nudes and glosses. I’m not exactly sure what changed my mind but I now prefer a nice color, so I went to macy’s because of the fact that I had a gift card to …
Clinique High Impact Mascara
It’s hard to find a good mascara product out in this cosmetic jungle. From experience and after spending hundreds of dollars, I can attest that price and brand are not indicators of quality when it comes to mascara. I’ve tried numerous drugstore brands, most of which are …
Clinique almost powder make-up in light color
I got this make up early this year from Selfridges store in London for the price of £18. In my own personal opinion I would always go for a powdered make-up rather than the liquid ones because I don’t like the feel of the oily texture of my …
Avon Be Kissable collection
I have tried many of the different Avon perfume collections, and I have found Be Kissable to be my second favorite kind that they have for women. Avon introduced this collection during the Valentine’s Day time in 2006. It comes in a pink bottle with a darker …
MAC & Marcel Wanders Sheer Mystery Powder in Light Medium
I always buy Mac products because I think it’s best to buy an expensive brand that will take care of your skin rather than buying cheap brands that can just harm your skin in the long run. I gave myself this Mac powder as a Christmas gift and have …
Eyeshadow by Makeup Forever Diamond Night Blue

Dove Cream Bar
I used to love whitening/clarifying soaps but since these whitening/clarifying soaps that I have used are drying, I’ve opted to shift to dove.

Neutrogena Men Skin Clearing Shaving Cream
Warning, if you like rich, thick, foamy shaving lather, then Neutrogena Men’s Shaving Cream is definitely not for you! This product is thin, watery, and more like a cheap moisturizer than a shave cream. Simply stated, it just doesn’t lather at all! A few seconds after …
Finesse Conditioner
The commercial for Finesse’s Conditioner advertises “extra moisturizing conditioner”. I have a few things to say about this product. First, I am only giving them a rating of four because it does alright for a conditioner.
My complaint is that it doesn’t live up to its expectations. …
Avon Naturals Strawberry and Guava Shower Gel
This is another one from the Avon Naturals range. Probably 1 of my favourite ranges as it is all nice Fruity scents which is what I like. I have my favourite scents in the range and although this isn’t a favourite it is still a nice enough scent.
This comes …

Bloom Liquid Foundation
During the summertime, I usually prefer to wear liquid foundation since I like the way that it looks on my skin. I usually have to be somewhat careful about the liquid foundations that I purchase since I do tend to sweat during the summertime which makes me more …
OPI eyeshadows
Try out new products and play with colors, so over the years I’ve developed a good collection of makeup from different brands. One brand of cosmetic that I’m not too familiar with is OPI. I’ve heard they’re known for their nail polishes and I do love them for that, …

Estee Lauder’s Cool Pure Color Gloss

I really love using this lotion. The main reason why I decided to use it is because it was recommended to me by someone. I was told that it works perfect for removing marks from the skin and it does just that. I purchased it from …
Almay truly lasting color lip color
This comes on a silver cardboard paper. The lip color is an applicator.
I love this lip color. It stays on all day without fading. Even if I eat food or drink water, it does not come off. It’s really convenient that I don’t have to reapply it like I …
Elizabeth Arden Prevage Anti-Aging Night Creme
I adore Elizabeth Arden products and in my opinion, Elizabeth Arden products as a whole are very high quality products and offer wonderful results. I have seen a lot of advertisements for Prevage and I really wanted to give it a shot but its price discouraged me. At £98 …

Clarins Energizing Leg Emulsion
This product was the first leg lotion that got me started with the whole tired-legs therapy. I once visited a Clarins Spa which was then newly launched in a nearby mall and didn’t understand why it was recommended for pregnant women. Well my main point of going …
Nivea For Men Active3 Shower Gel

Victoria’s Secret Spa Smoothing Body Scrub
I thought this body scrub during the semi-annual sale at Victoria’s Secret for about $6. I mainly bought it because it was so cheap. Well, it was the cheapest thing I could find there. Usually, I am not very picky about body scrubs as long as they just do …

Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Natural Bronze Firming Butter
As a woman who’se skin tone ranges from pale to pasty at any given time of the year, a gorgeous golden tan is something of a pipe dream for me. Ive always been scared off from fake tans by the hoards of orange oompa-loompa-like women roaming the streets who …
Avon MagiX Face Perfector Primer

Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Blow Dry Perfector

First off, the cream or serum that you put on your …
Body Shop Seaweed Ionic Clay Mask
First of all, I loved the smell of this product. It was pretty overpriced, $27 AU for a 100mL little tub. The effects of this mask weren’t too strong, which I liked, since my skin is sensitive but tends to be blemished and reddish. If you do have …
John Frieda Collection Frizz Ease Leave-in conditioning spray
