This product is confusing. It’s alcohol with lemon extracts that destroys bacterias and viruses and it’s an antiseptic and disinfectant as well. The lemon extract scents are really heavenly-smelling and it doesn’t smell like regular powerful-smelling isopropyl alcohol and that’s good. This is 70% solution with moisturizer, but I …

I have always had trouble with stubble growing back too quickly after shaving. It seemed as if I could never manage to make it till 3 o’clock before my 5 o’clock shadow would show up. I tried several different brands of razors, but none worked like the Schick Quattro Titanium.
The …

I haven’t always been a huge fan of Nivea skin care products. I find their face creams greasy and quite ineffective for the most part, so I was surprised at the results I got from using Nivea Visage Q10 Advanced Wrinkle Reducer Cleansing Lotion.
This product is a make-up remover, …

Haven’t I blabbered enough already that I’m fond of using Loreal’s hair care products? Let me do that again. For now, my eyes turned to Loreal’s total repair 5, a repairing conditioner of sorts. My local grocery store is well stocked of Loreal items, and …

It has seemed, over the years, that I just can’t catch a break. If I’m not dealing with acne in my youth, and occassional blemishes in my adulthood, then it’s also these awful dark circles under my eyes that make me, with my pale skin, look like a vampire, …
