Aussie mega shampoo for everyday cleaning
I like the Aussie Mega shampoo. It has pleasant smell, isn’t too expensive and actually does exactly what the bottle indicates. It states that it doesn’t leave build up on your hair and I agree with them, it doesn’t. I also leaves your hair feeling really …

I have multiple palettes of L.A. Colors: Color Metallic Eyeshadow. My mother got them for my sister and me as Christmas gifts. Ironically I helped her pick them out for my sister who loves shiny bright eyeshadows. These eyeshadows are exactly that. These vibrant colors …

…
Avon Glimmersticks Lip Liner

I was pretty amazed with …
Skin Tone NYX Base
The skin tone was the clear winner of the three NYX bases I tried, because it matched my skin perfectly, and it had a perfect balance of long lasting power, and vibrancy for both matte and shimmery powders and eye shadows. It didn’t have the same pearl effect that …
NYX Pearl Eyeshadow Base
The pear base was very sheer on my eyelid, which was great for me because it didn’t show through the colors at all. And when I tried it out with NYX pearl cosmetics (their loose powder), this was the perfect adhesive. They stood out bright and shining with this …
Nyx Eye shadow Bases (White)
I bought all three of NYX Eye shadow bases the last time I bought from NYX cosmetics. I have to say that I am extremely pleased with what I got for the prices of these things. They are specifically formulated for use with NYX cosmetics, and because of …

Herbal Essences Dazzling Shine shampoo
I am getting through shampoos rather fast at the moment, which is a bit of a surprise seeing as how I have only recently had my hair cut! I suppose it would be more sensible of me, at least from the point of view of making them last, if …
Wella Herbal Creambath
I know Wella product so long already. And I normally asked my hairdresser to give me Wella products when I got hair treatment in the beauty salon.

Vital Radiance Line Smoothing Makeup
I don’t really wear foundation that often because I feel like my face doesn’t really need the coverage, and I can do just fine with a bit of concealer to cover up my problem areas. When I apply foundation, it seems to be a little cakey looking on my …
Bed Head After Party
I have had my eyes on the Bed Head After Party hair product for almost two years now, but I never wanted to spend $17-$18 to buy it. I finally bought it after I recieved a gift card from Target. Bed Head is a high end product but it …
Stila Lipglaze in “Ulta”mate Pink
I bought a Stila kit from Ulta last year and in it, it had four Stila eyeshadows, a mascara, a mini convertible color, and a Stila lipglaze in “Ulta”mate Pink. The lipglaze was in the classic Stila tube, where there is a brush applicator and you have to twist …

Rimmel London Lasting Finish Foundation
I am so pleased with this foundation from Rimmel London. It is called ‘Lasting Finish’ and claims to last for 16 hours. This was only about £5.99 as I remember which is extremely cheap considering its very good quality.
Firstly, it has a fine texture and is very …
Olay Double Action Day Cream
I am fond of the Olay brand of face creams - it was called ‘Ulay’ when I was young though, back in the seventies. Even though facial moisturizers have moved on through technical advances since those days, Olay is still an excellent facial moisturizer. It might not …
Simple Refreshing Facial Wash Gel

Vaseline Intensive Care Nightly Renewal Body Lotion

Anthony Logistics For Men After Shave Balm
I really did not understand the importance of using after shave cosmetics. I really thought that its just a waste of money and having an additional routine whenever you are cleaning your face. The need however was realized when I developed rashes one time after shaving my face. It …
Sainsbury’s Ultra Soft white tissues
Sainsbury’s supermarket seems to have been carving out something of a niche for itself in the cosmetics market in recent times, and they have done so in particular when it comes to things that are perhaps not considered very important but which are extremely useful and which I, at …
Hoof’s Spa LA LA LA LA
As a pick me up I received an at home spa kit by Hoof’s, SPA la la la la by hoof spa, mailed to me by my dearest friend out of state. I was pleasantly surprised to receive such a cute little kit. My friend always sends …
La Roche-Posay Posthelios After Sun Cream

Barry M Dazzle Dust
By far, Barry M’s best product is their dazzle dust, which wins with absolutely no contest. They have a little video on their website that sold me on the product, there was a girl wearing all the different shades, and they kept switching scenes to show off the quality …
Lip Lacquer Crayon by Barry M
Now Barry M really loves to make their crayon products. I know that I have said before that I prefer to have other kinds of products rather than in a crayon form, that still hold true, but this was such an interesting product that I just had to …
Beauty From the Earth mix and fix medium
Beauty From the Earth carried only loose mineral eye shadows, and so do most mineral makeup companies. I prefer to have pressed powders because they are much easier to use, but it is a lot harder to find pressed mineral eye shadows than the loose ones, and there is …
Barry M Nail Whitener
I have always loved the way that French Manicures looked because they look so clean on your hands. I have always wished though, that I didn’t have to g through all the trouble and upkeep of painting them over and over to get that look. Now, I don’t have …
John Frieda Collection Frizz Ease Moisture Barrier hairspray

Barry M Glitter eye crayon
Barry M has this obsession with crayons. But because they make everything in a crayon form, they have really perfected the art I will admit. I have bought quite a few products from them, some that I love, and some that I will never use. They are a bit …
Barry M Lip Gloss Set in Bronze
Even though I have never been a huge fan of lip glosses, when I was purchasing from Barry m, I decided that I would really like to try out their set of bronze glosses. I have only ever owned pink or clear glosses, and I had a feeling that …

Tresemme Tres Two Extra Hold professional hairspray

Barry M duo pencil sharpener with lid
This is just about the same as any other pencil sharpener, but it is pink, and matches a set of brushes I bought from Barry M. I do like a few of the features it comes with, and they make it worth the few extra dollars this sharpener costs. …
Glamour Doll Eye-lights
Glamour Doll is a mineral makeup company, but I have to admit that it is not my favorite, and it is by far not the cheapest that I have every bought. I found them through an online video that led to them, but it was a little disappointing to …
