The Body Shop Vitamin C MicroRefiner
I have very big pores, therefore, my skin is also very prone to blackheads and whiteheads. My dermatologist then prescribed that I undergo intense exfoliation twice a month called microdermabrasion. She blasts tiny particles of exfoliants to my skin using a machine. This procedure really made my pores smaller …

Sainsbury’s Passion Body Spray

Burt’s Bees Lemon Poppy Seed Facial Cleanser
I have tried a couple of products from the Burt’s Bees brand of skincare items, and always really loved them. In Canada, this brand might as well be a department store brand, because they are very expensive. However, as a Christmas gift, I was excited to receive a jar …

Insette Ocean deodorant
Insette Ocean is a type of inexpensive anti-perspirant deodorant that I had always rather steered clear of up until now, because I was a bit worried that its cheapness would be reflected in a lack of effectiveness, which is obviously not something that you want to happen with a …
Burt’s Bees Lip Shimmers

Neutrogena Body Clear Body Wash
I’ve used Neutrogena products religiously for the past 10 years, and one of my favorite is their on-the-spot acne treatment. Even in my thirties, I still get blemishes, and it always reminds me of those horrible days as a teenage girl when I couldn’t seem to control my blemish …

Nexcare by 3M Acne Patches
Almost all products I know for spot-treating acne are generally similar in formulation. Aren’t they? I’ve ranted about spot treatment gels that were not as good, if not worse, than putting toothpaste to a pimple. Naturally, a pimple will heal by itself. The main point …
Coppertone Sunscreen Lotion
Coppertone Sunscreen Lotion is PABA free. A lot of people don’t even know what PABA is or what it does. It’s not even necessary for a sunscreen to be PABA free. PABA is actually good for our bodies, but that’s a different review.
This sunscreen also advertises to be waterproof. …

Boots Sanctuary Bath Relaxer
I’ll admit it… I’m a total sucker for bath products. My husband jokes about how I never take showers, only baths and, if I had the time and it were up to me, I’d probably take two baths a day, because that’s always been my quiet time away from …
Jessica Simpson Dessert Treats in Cotton Candy
This Jessica Simpson Dessert Treats Deliciously Kissable Whipped Cream in Cotton Candy was the second product that I tried in the Jessica Simpson desert line. Like the first product that I’ve tried in the Jessica Simpson Dessert line, I also took a chance on this because I never used …
