Maybelline Express Finish 60 Second Nail Color

Tigi Bed Head After-Party Smoothing Cream
I am a big fan of Bed Head hair care products, and I have been using this line of shampoos and conditioners for many years, and they are consistently well-worth the price. The last time I purchased a large shampoo and conditioner set, I received a free gift with …
Citre Shine Multi-reflective Glossing Gelle
Hair styling products have greatly evolved the last couple of years from the typical hair pomades, waxes and, don’t you forget, gels. Given those choices, I’m quite sure the last thing I want to put on my hair is gel! I believe I have tried enough Citre …

Clear Men Anti-Dandruff Shampoo With Activated Carbon + Menthol
Dandruff has been my constant problem. I have developed this since high school. I always complain about other dandruff shampoos because they fail to lessen the problem. For how many years, I tried Head and Shoulders. It minimized the problem however not really stopped it. I tried lately Clear Men …

The Product
Vanilla lights is a pale purple color with lots of micro shimmers.
The container is a pale purple tube with a dome-shaped transparent cap.
This has a sweet and sort of waxy scent but I did not detect any particular taste, however.
This has a hard and sticky consistency.

Wetnwild Megalast Nail Color, #205A Sugar Coat
Apparently this nail color from Wetnwild is new. I don’t usually choose such light polishes normally. However, in the bottle this looked like it might be a nice classic pink. I thought it might be an understated and lady like pink that I could wear for daytime.
Sadly, I don’t …
Kleenex Facial Oil Blotter
I picked the Kleenex Facial Oil Blotter at the drugstore just because it was something new and I was quite tired of using the usual oil blotting films that all seemed to be the same no matter what brand. I didn’t expect the Kleenex Oil Blotter to be much …

I don’t …
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Cream Compact

Beauty Touch Cosmetics Eyelash Curler

Caruso Steam Hair Setters

BFTE Cosmetic Glitter

NYX Round lipstick
If you’re looking for a makeup brand that offers a wide selection of colors, quality products for affordable prices you should check out NYX cosmetics. That’s NYX like “niks” not N.Y.X. The downside is that NYX can only be found online at CherryCulture.com and NYX.com or in person at …
