Artdeco Mineral Fluid Foundation 25 Beige Rose
There was a period when I altogether gave up on foundation. I wasn’t really going for a natural look but make-up just stopped being something that added to my overall joy in life. That didn’t last very long so I felt inexplicably lost when I decided I’d like to …
L’Oreal Ombrelle Cream SPF 60 Sunscreen
I have recently graduated from SPF 30 sunscreen to ones with much higher SPF, because of the accumulated skin damage I have sustained over the years. I have a daily moisturizer that has SPF 40, and I like it a lot for just daily use. But I needed something …
Shea Shower Cream from The Body Shop
I’ll admit, when I received a small (mini) bottle of the Shea Shower Cream from The Body Shop as part of a Christmas present last year, I didn’t really give it much thought. I was more excited about products I had previously tried and knew I loved or products …

Bench Fix Clay Doh Lite Hair Clay
If your hair is thick and difficult to style, hair gel is not enough. Ever since the hairstyle mohawk came out, I really wanted to try it but the quality of my hair strand makes it not feasible. I discovered hair clay from Bench, a well-known clothing brand here in …
Nivea Pure and Natural Moisturizing Body Lotion
For the most part, I am a fan of Nivea products. I loved their strawberry lip balm and so when I saw this lotion in Wal-Mart for $3 for a for a 250ml (8.4 ounce) bottle with the usual flip cap as opposed to the pump dispenser. After buying …

B Bounty bath foam

Even at the age of 32 I still get blackheads from time to time. I hate when my face isn’t clear and I hate when bumps arrive on my skin. I’ve tried tons of different things for my skin and one of the things that I have tried is …
Smashbox High Definition Healthy FX Foundation
I have been a staunch advocate for ” against animal testing” and “organic” substance for various make ups, creams, body wash, or cosmetics in general. My dermatologist told me that the best products are those which contain the best ingredients, they are natural, and those which have formulas that …
Premium Cotton Balls by Dollarama
I never thought I would ever get back to using cotton balls again, until I realized that paper towels just don’t cut it when I really want to clean my face before hopping to bed at night. I just don’t like using water to wash my face, since …
Loreal Dermo-Expertise UV Protect SPF 50

Oil of Olay Oil Minimizing Toner

Avon Anew Alternative Night Cream
I use Anew Alternative Intensive Age Treatment by Avon. The regime has a night and day cream. The night cream comes in a little jar and it is much heavier than the day cream, in fact it is very very thick. The day cream tingles a little bit …

Kiehl’s Panthenol Protein Hair Conditioner and Softener
I think what brought my interest to buy this product was the fact that it contained no silicon. I used to dig on silicon-free products before when my hair was straight. I still go by the same principle now that I’ve permanently permed my hair into curls. …

Dove summer glow beauty summer lotion
First of all I must admit that my skin colour is not medium and it is certainly not dark. I am not fair but like light medium maybe. I like Dove body lotions because they make your skin soft and silky.

Aussie Moist Conditioner
I am in love with this conditioner! I’ve heard so many raves reviews about it, but I always figured that it couldn’t be anything that good, because if it was, it would be all over the place in terms of internet, magazines, tv, hair salons, etc! Well I was …
Zest Soap
I love the cologne scent that this soap has, because it’s not too harsh on the nostrils. It’s just gentle enough for sensitive noses, but strong enough to last all day long. And also, it helps keep the body odor level down to at least 3 on a really …

Nu Skin Enhancer Skin Conditioning Gel

Celeteque Facial Moisturizer with Triple Moisturizing System

Marks & Spencer Magnolia Anti-Perspirant Deodorant
This anti-perspirant deodorant from Marks & Spencer’s Floral Collection costs about £1.75. I had never tried it before, but at the time it was the only spray-on deodorant I could find in the particular branch I was in.
The scent of the spray is lovely —“ sweet magnolia flowers …

Dove Beauty Bar Moisturizing Bath Soap
This came together with a month’s worth of grocery items. I am not fond of dove soaps because of the runny melt away texture. I was accustomed to lathering with Jergens’ mild soaps. I tend to stick to one product regularly as I’m prone to reactions. …
Sally Hansen HD Hi-Definition Nail Color
