Sally Hansen Nail Polish in Champagne Toast
I absolutely adore this nail polish in the color Champagne Toast! I usually don’t buy really light nail polishes because they never show up on my nails, but somehow I guess I wanted to try a lighter pink color out, so I decided to buy the Sally Hansen Diamond …
Scotch Lint Roller
I have always heard of lint rollers but I had never owned one till recently/ What really made me buy one was the fact that the job I work at is a very dusty environment and it would annoy me greatly when my lovely clothing would have all these …

L’Occitane Eau Des Baux Stick Deodorant
Commercial deodorant are too synthetic for me. If you go with some brands particularly those which are prominent, it is too expensive sometimes.
The main reason why I tried this is because of the amazing smell. It smells green because of cypress and it has incense giving it this masculine …
DG Deep Cleansing Astringent
I have mild acne with a few breakouts throughout the week. Since I am on a budget I am not able to purchase the expensive brand of acne management systems I opted to try a less expensive acne management brand called DG Deep Cleansing Astrigent.
I bought DG Deep …
Super Stretch Soft and Springy Rubber Bands
I don’t use rubber bands often, but sometimes need them to style my and my daughter’s hair. I recently purchased some rubber bands. They were the Super Stretch brand soft and springy rubber bands. I liked that there was a bag of 500 for under 2 dollars. This is …
Palmer’s Even Tone Fade Cream
I don’t usually believe that beauty creams will really do what the package indicates they will. Acne medicine simply cleans the affected area and opens pores. But the zit isn’t going anywhere until it’s good and ready. However, Palmer’s Even Tone Fade Cream really does improve …
Blistex Medicated Lip Ointment
I picked this up while on a camping trip at the lake at the only store nearby which happened to be a gas station, so it was between this and only one other lip product. My lips were pretty dry and sunburned so I was looking for a product …
Purederm Acne Wash cleansing tissues
I was back at Watson’s a couple of nights ago to replenish my already depleted stock of makeup removal wipes. Because they had none of my brand of cleansers, I decided to try the Purederm Acne wash cleansing tissues.

UBU (Urban Beauty United) Tweeze Louise Combination Tip Tweezers

Prior to that I would tweeze my …
Vavoom Freezing spray

Nivea Cleansing Milk makeup Remover
I started using makeup removers about a year ago when I discovered that going to sleep with traces of makeup on my face gave me lots of pimples. Of course, my bedtime ritual consisted of washing my face with a cleanser and then applying an eye cream. It was …
Dove Body Wash - Beauty Moisture with 1/4 moisturizing milk
Because of my oily skin type I never dared to get the Dove Body Washes until they introduced their Go Fresh series.
The claim of 1/4 of the body wash being moisturizing milk never sounded right for me. I admit that several times I was tempted when it was …
Shea Butter Body Lotion by Crema
Overall I think it is a good product that I will be purchasing again, however, it will never make it to my top 10 body lotion list. I have been using it for almost 2 years now and I consider it to be a very dependable product. Sometimes I …
Loreal Men Skin Caring Shave Gel
My dermatologist told me that when shaving, do it downwards so as not to traumatize your skin because when you do it upwards it goes against the skins pores, it will cause blemishes to your skin. I have been doing this practice for years now but nonetheless there are …
Nyx Eye shadow Bases (White)

Defining System Relaxing Fluid

Dove Energy Glow brightening eye cream
I have always loved Dove products, and when I began noticing dark circles under my eyes I quickly bought Dove Energy Glow brightening eye cream at my local pharmacy. While Dove has never been a luxury brand, I have to say this eye cream looked appealing as it …

I tried it in the morning two weeks ago, and nothing!! There was absolutely no traces of bronzing powder where I put this stuff on. So, I made a lot of efforts trying to layer it and hoping by the same way I would be able to see a …
Country Chic Body Lotion by BBW
So do any of you guys know what’s good about having a sister? Haha! You actually have more resources while you fix yourselves since you get to use your sister’s own stuff as well! And, that is so the case for my sister and I. I have written about …

Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Oil Slick (black w/ rainbow glitter)
This unusual twist on basic black eyeshadow is a great way to make a dramatic statement with your makeup. When I first picked it up, I thought it was simply a basic black, but upon closer inspection, the shimmer is actually multi-colored glitter which gives your eyes a dazzling, …
Sunmark moisturizing Sunscreen Lotion
This tiny little bottle of sunscreen lotion worked very well for me and my family while on vacation. It says on the bottle that it can be compared to Coppertone lotion, and after using it, I can see why. The texture, and fragrance, as well as the …
Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Special Conditioner
I am a bug fan of Paul Mitchell’s Tea Tree Special Shampoo, however I do have mixed feelings about the conditioner. It is pretty good at getting the job done without leaving any residue in the hair but it also has a smell unlike the shampoo which is …
Deep Moisturizer Cream by CeraVe

Tend Skin Lotion
Ever since my first wax a few years ago, I started to develope ingrowing hairs (mainly on my legs). It was just the odd one or two to begin with but as I continued to wax, the condition worsened as more hairs started to grow inwards rather than out. …
Maybelline Twinkle 705 Color Sensational Pearls Lipcolor

He-Shi Express Liquid Tan Fake Tanning Lotion

Pond’s Anti-Bacterial Facial Scrub
This facial scrub from Pond’s was created to prevent acne problems. The common theory is that dirt and dead skin cells can cause skin problems and this what this facial scrub is trying to wipe out. It contains soft and small beads with combination of salicylic acid to clean the …
La Roche Posay Toleriane Fond de Ten Fluide
Years ago when I first started to wear make-up I have tried a great number of foundation types but most of them let me down terribly. So I have decided to try and use derma-cosmetic products instead of classical make up products.
The derma-cosmetic products, opposite from the regular make …
Tresemme Waterless Foam Shampoo
The Tresemme Waterless Foam Shampoo gets a rating of 4 out of 10 in my opinion. This is the only foam based dry shampoo that I have ever tried. It is way more typical to see either a spray or a powder formulation of dry shampoo so I picked …

Dr Hauschka Rose Day Cream (regular)
This well-known skin care product is produced by a very respected cosmetics company, Dr Hauschka, and has been a favourite with many celebrities (I admit, I became intrigued by this well-known cream, and eventually bought it, precisely because I read many film stars are reported to use it.)
And so, a …
Maybelline waterproof eyeliner
I’ve been a user of Maybelline for years but I had a serious problem with their waterproof eyeliner. I bought it for $4.79 and you better believe that is alot of money for a small eye liner pencil. I thought I was getting a good buy because it was …
Aquafina 2x whitening
I really like this toothpaste. It left a really clean fresh taste in my mouth. I didn’t really see all that much of a difference with the whitening of my teeth. The best thing that I have found like that is baking soda. It doesn’t foam up too much …
Bath and Body Works Winter Candy Apple Anti-bacterial Hand Gel

Suave Max-Hold Volumizing Hair Mousse

The Velvet Apricot Lip Balm by The Body Shop
