Dermal Therapy Alpha Hydroxy Lotion

The Maybelline Falsies Mascara in Waterproof

L’Oreal Telescopic mascara
Well, what can i say about this…it was truly awful and did not do anything good except making a big mess. I bought this mascara only because I thought at first the brush would be working well and because of the advertising, but definitely, it was just another big …
Hourglass Pulse Lipgloss
I have never heard of this Hourglass brand before I stepped into Sephora, so I was so interested in this new packaging design. I picked up one of my makeup staples, lip gloss, just to be on the safe side, and I feel that I got completely ripped off …
Burt’s Bees Lip Balm
I love Burt’s Bees lip balm, especially the peppermint flavor. If I never try another kind of lip balm again, I shall be satisfied, because Burt’s Bees is the best there is out there, in my opinion. Bland, old Chapstick brand just doesn’t compare. I love …
Avon Kids 2 in 1 Shampoo Apple
I find that the Avon Kids range is ok for adults too. The bottles are ok, but it is mainly the smell of this Shampoo that I like. I’ve tried all of the Kids range.
This comes in a 250ml bottle and the right price of this is £2.50. Being …
Clarins Instant Sun Light lip balm with SPF 6 in Sunset Coral

Jet Set Hair Styling Gel
I don’t use a lot of different products in my hair because I know or have heard and read about incidents where you mix certain products together (not on purpose) But maybe you put a little of this and a little of that because one product may do one …
The Natural Source Bubble Bath in Passion Fruit
I always look forward to a warm relaxing bath at the end of each day. Just any simple bubbling bath will do, but a wonderful bath soap that’s easier to prepare is preferably a better choice. I use the natural source bubble bath that has made a …
Pond’s Age Solution Early Defense Night Cream
If you had just seen me months ago, you would probably say that I must have almost all the skin imperfections that a person could have. Stressful work and pollution made my skin dull and stressed out all over. I didn’t even have …
Maybelline Dram Mousse Blush

Laura Mercier thickening and building mascara

Aero Minerale Foundation Hydrating Makeup Mist, Ivory

Lush 9 to 5 Cleanser

Cover Gray Dark Brown Lipstick

Sally Hansen Diamond Lip Treatment- Antique Bronze

Almay Smart Shade Perfect & Correct Skin Primer
The Almay Smart Shade Perfect and Correct Skin Primer gets a rating of only 1 out of 10 in my opinion. I had been very curious to see if the “Smart Shade” technology that Almay touts was actually effective but unfortunately, I absolutely hated this product. I paid about …
E.L.F (Eyes Lips Face) Waterproof Eyeliner Pen, 7303 Black

Maybelline Line Stiletto Liquid Eye Liner

Who wouldn’t be tempted to buy a 946 ml. gigantic bottle of shampoo for only $4.99? That’s how Tresseme Natural Shampoo costs. Aside from the cheap price it is offered for, the bottle said it is a Professional Formula shampoo with Vitamins C & E which will suit all …
Sally Hansen Age Correct Hand Lift Firming Serum

Kate Somerville Oil Free Moisturizer
I recently purchased the Kate Somerville Oil Free Moisturizer. It was $65 and I truly believe that I wasted my money. I seriously wish that I could still return this to get that money back. For that price, this should have been liquid gold. Instead, it is a terribly …
