I’ve been on a mission since hitting my 40’s to really start taking care of my skin, not only on my face but my entire body. Having had 3 children I am extremely lucky to have not suffered any excess skin or stretch marks but I …

Aveda Foot Relief Cream is probably the best foot cream I’ve ever tried. I’ve tried products from Burt’s Bees and Bath and Body Works in the hopes that using a higher end cream will provide superior results. This does seem to generally be true. Burt’s Bees was the most …

Clinique has one of the most amazing exfoliation products out there with their Turnaround Instant Facial Masque product. The product promises to deliver exfoliation on par with a microdermabrasion session. I’ve had one microdermabrasion session before, and in my opinion using the Clinique mask actually provided me with more …

I’ve bought products from Avon for as long as I can remember now and being in my early 40’s that’s a fair few years. It’s safe to say that they are a reputable company having being trading for so long and whilst I am a fan generally it …

Since I started feeling my puberty age, I’ve been using several kinds of hair gel. This is to be in the trend of hair styling during my days. There were time that I almost forgot to take a bath before bedtime. With whole days in school and chatting with …

During one of my casual routine a few months back, I happened to set my eyes on this product called Johnsons baby oil with Aloe vera and vitamin c in the baby care section of the shopping mall. Although I had seen this oil quite a few times earlier, …

I love a nice bubble bath, with Soap and Glory’s Calm One Calm All bubbles being my absolute favourite at the moment. Everything about it is fantastic from the way the fabulous (and highly pink!) bottle looks on my bathroom shelf, to the gorgeous smell, to the effectiveness of …

The CO Bigelow Mentha Lip Buffer gets a rating of 8 out of 10 in my opinion. It is one of those products that I absolutely love using but that I do not think is worth the price. If I’m being completely honest about this product, it is one …

The Revlon PhotoReady Concealer stick gets a rating of 10 out of 10 in my opinion. It has become my new holy grail drugstore concealer. I bought it on a whim, not expecting it to be that extraordinary. After trying it the first time, I was blown away. Why …

Most people when they’re buying toiletries just buy the first thing they see, the cheapest, or the same brand they have been buying for several years before. I know from experience that if you decide to become a vegetarian, or especially a vegan, it’s a lot more difficult. Once …

I wish I knew about Clearasil Face Wash back when I was still in my teens because it would have saved me a lot of trouble and humiliation, but unfortunately I didn’t try it until I was an adult. After …

I enjoy Aveda’s patented Pure-fume fragrances in all their hair care products and needed a strong holding hair spray so I purchased their Control Force Firm Hold Hair Spray.

The idea of cowashing (washing one’s hair with a conditioner instead of a traditional shampoo) is not entirely new to me. I have done it several times in the past and for the most part I have had a positive experience with the hair cleansing method. Like …

I have never been a big fan of waxing as a hair removal method, but the sales associate at Sally’s Beauty Supply assured me that this was one the
store’s most popular items. I normally either shave or use an electric razor, but lately due to some hormonal issues …

Despite being a little bit obsessed by cosmetics and make up, I’ve never had much interest in eyeliners. I wear thick black mascara and that has the effect of adding definition to the shape of my eyes without the bother of actually lining my eyes. My cousin passed on …

My lips tend to become dry during extreme hot and cold conditions, thereby making it vital for me to use a lip care product every now and then. The fact that I have used several types of lip care products, I always try experimenting with a different one whenever …

Garnier’s Skin Renew Brusher Gel Cleanser is a unique product than does a superior job of cleaning my skin. This easily distinguishable product is neon green with a white cleansing brush attached at the top of the bottle. Because the bottle includes the brush the product more deeply cleanses …

Sally Hansen’s Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips are the next best thing to getting a professional Shellac manicure.

They are …

Since I had good experience with Loreal regular line conditioners I decided to go ahead and try the Loreal Professional line hair products. The Loreal Professional hair products are made for salon use and are not found in drugstores and marts. I bought the Absolut Repair Cellular …

I had a slight problem with my feet being dry. I have tried a number of products, and spend an enormous amount of money, trying to find the right product for my heels.
I decided to pick up a bottle of Bare Foot Peppermint and Plum Scrub.
It was cheap, less …

OPI has a gel nail polish that is very similar to the Shellac polish. It will last up to 2 weeks without chipping, cracking or breaking and it dries completely before you leave the nail salon. The price is the same at the salon I go to for both …

I used to use a tool way back around 1995 or so called the Topsy Tail. Some styles that the tool created would be considered dated now, but I recalled that I was able to create some styles that would still be appropriate for the times and so I …

The reason I purchased a product from BaByliss is purely because they meet my satisfying requirements and my requirements are simply that it should be worth the money. BaByliss has also won the InStyle awards – again, making them a professional competition to other hair and beauty companies. You …

I’ve been using the NYX lip liner in Auburn for around five years now, it’s very reasonably priced at around $3 and is honestly the best lip liner in it’s price bracket - and better than some that cost a lot more!
It’s a standard lip liner pencil which needs …

The Wet N Wild Color Icon Palette gets a rating of 8 out of 10 in my opinion. If it were not for the fragility of this eye shadow palette, I would give this a perfect rating. That is how much I love the product itself. Docking marks for …

The Pixi All Over Magic Radiance Power gets a 5 out of 10 in my opinion. This is one of those products that I ended up disliking because I did not do my research in advance. Unfortunately, I got suckered in by the cute packaging and ultimately ended up …

The Maybelline Fit Me Bronzer gets a 3 out of 10 in my opinion. It is one of the worst drugstore bronzers I have ever tried (and I have sampled many). I do not think that I am being at all harsh with the low rating because I have …

The Cover Girl Natureluxe Silk Foundation gets a rating of 8 out of 10 in my opinion. I spent 12 dollars for this foundation at Walgreen’s. My overall feeling about this product is that it is great if you are looking for a very light, natural foundation but that …

The Cover Girl Liquiline Blast in Blue Boom gets a rating of 9 out of 10 in my opinion. There are a total of six different shades available (black, brown, silver, purple, blue, and green), and I purchased the blue one for about eight dollars at my local Walgreen’s. …

The Revlon ColorStay Just Bitten Lip Stain in Crave gets a rating of 2 out of 10 for me. Why such a harsh rating? This lip stain was great the first two times I used it. However, the product dried up so quickly that I only got a few …

The Maybelline Shine Sensational lip gloss (in the flavor Peach Sorbet) gets a rating of a 7 out of 10 for me. It is pretty average as far as drug store lip gloss goes. It wins in terms of price and flavor/shade variety, but does not quite live up …

The Boots No. 7 Lash 360 Mascara gets a rating of 6 out of 10 in my opinion. What I do like about this mascara is the really unique brush but what I hate about it is its lack of versatility. In that sense, it’s one of those mascaras …

One of the foot creams I like to use not only for moisturizing my dry feet in the summer and wintertime, but also for keeping my legs super smooth, soft and glowing as well is the Udderly Smooth Foot Cream with Shea Butter. I like this cream because it …

My stylist used Moroccan argan oil on my hair the last time I went to get a trim since her salon had just started to offer it for sale. She told me that it helps to protect hair from heat and styling damage, helps it to dry faster and …

About a week ago, I got a new haircut that added bangs to my hair and much shorter layers for a look that created a lot more movement than the style I previously had. Of course, whenever you get that brand new haircut where a professional styles your hair, …
