Mary Kay Ultimate Mascara in Black
I tried many different brands of mascara. Some were great and others were not. Some were just okay. I really like Mary Kay Ultimate Mascara in Black because it really thickens my eyelashes without making them look clumpy. Another thing that I really love about …
Mistral Travel Soap, Melon Pear
Do not purchase this soap thinking that it will smell like melon or pears! There is a faint trace of a smell that could be considered a blend of melon pear, but it is a lot weaker than I expected it to be. Another thing that I did not …
Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush Honey Do body double mist
I have always loved Victoria’s Secret fragrances whenever I happened to be in the store. I used to go browsing through all the shelves of beauty products and trying them all, but I finally got my chance to buy some when the semi-annual sale came around. The first year …
Sunsilk Soft Touch Shampoo
I have used several shampoos and I can review almost all of them but let me start with the one dearest to me, Sunsilk Soft Touch Shampoo. I personally love it because it is the same brand my family uses and my mom always buy it.

Dermablend Smooth Indulgence with Matte Finish
I first got introduced to Dermablend through my mom. At that time, she worked in cosmetics. I told her I wanted to try something new to hide my old puberty acne scars. What I was using at that time wasn’t working. After nagging on and on about …
Bath & Body Works Goodness Grapeness Glitter Lotion
This is my first bottle of glitter lotion and I’m really satisfied with it. It doesn’t only serve as a glitter lotion but also as a moisturizer as well. It has aloe vera which moisturizes and conditions your skin, and Vitamin E and Vitamin C to nourish your skin, …
Sally Hansen Hi-Definition Nail color Cyber 01
I have recently been experimenting with the Sally Hansen Hi-Definition line. I spotted it in the store last week and fell in love with it instantly. I purchased one and since then went back to the store to purchase two more bottles. One color that I purchased on my …
Aveeno Bath treatment
There is much to say about this messy crap here. I don’t want to start my review off by talking bad about this stuff but I do want to say that it is such a hassle to use this stuff. The only person who uses it is my daughter …
100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Lip Butters
I have been noticing the huge wave of lip butters in the cosmetics industry recently. And, girls, I am just loving these 100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Lip Butters! They are made entirely of organic ingredients which consist of fruit and vegetable extracts. So you can feel good that you …
Aussie volumizing hair conditioner

Tresemme Flawless Curls Curl Enhancing Mousee

Heel To Toe Peppermint Sloughing Foot Lotion
This product left me with mixed feelings. I live in the desert, and I’m on my feet all the time, so my heels are dry and sometimes they crack. A friend recommended this product to me for those reasons.
This product is supposed to remove the dead skin …
Tea Tree Skin Clearing Facial Wash
Tea Tree Skin Clearing Facial Wash, is one of the best facial washes out there for problem skin. I get break outs every so often,especially in the summer time. I use this wash for a few days, and my skin clears right up. I also don’t worry about getting …
Ardent-Hype Gluta-C Glutathione Soap
Glutathione injections are expensive, plus they can leave marks that can scar your skin and they can be prominent forever, leaving marks that no soap nor lotion can erase. They are usually injected directly in your veins on your arms, thus having pin-pricked marks that would have people guessing …
Oral-B Prof Care 2000 Dental Care
I had to get a new toothbrush a few weeks back and decided to get one of those electric ones I’d seen people in adverts using but had never bothered to get myself. I had a look around on the internet and eventually settled on the Oral-B Prof Care …
Caress Exotic Oil Infusions Brazilian Cream Oil Body Wash
Body wash is one of my favorite things. Especially because I used to use bar soap, and our water is so hard that it was difficult to get a lather. Ever since I discovered the wonderful thing called body wash, I have loved to try all the …
Suave Kids 2-in-1 Shampoo

Mary Kay Waterproof Mascara
As I had stated on some of my reviews, I like the eyes of some Korean Artists. Their eyes are well defined and it is the first thing that you will get noticed once you look at their faces. However, these dramatic eyes will not lead to success if …
Rubiglo - The Original Mineral Make-Up
In recent years we’ve all heard great things about natural mineral based cosmetics, and many of these brands are hailed as if they are something entirely new. Wonderful though they are, their prices can be pretty outlandish. Which got me thinking. Many years ago I worked as a make-up …
Biore Warming Anti-Blackhead Cream Cleanser
I bought Biore Warming Anti-Blackhead Cream Cleanser for a price of $15 off Amazon last March. It cost me a total of $20 to have this product because of the shipping. Since I wanted a product which will effectively get rid of blackheads, I decided to try it.

I am basically a person with scanty hair not only on my head but also on my eye brows and eye lashes too. Though I try covering up this scantiness by using an eye brow pencil on my eye brows and using fake lashed for my lashes- I have …
O.P.I. Tickle My France-y France Collection Nail Lacquer
I almost always love O.P.I shades but this one is another one of those shades that I’m not really sure whether like it or not. This shade is called Tickle My France-y and it’s a neutral beige shade that looks very natural but in my tastes, too simple …
e.l.f Essential Shine Eraser (Blotting Sheets)
Because my skin tends to be a little on the oily side, especially from May-September when the warm weather arrives or when I am traveling, blotting sheets are one of my must-have beauty products. But even though they help, most of the time, I feel like I’m being ripped …
Ponds Dry Skin Face Cream

Revlon Lip Butters
Everybody has been raving about the new Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters recently. I have heard every YouTube beauty guru and beauty blogger talking not only about how amazing these products are but also about how difficult it is to actually find them in stores because of their popularity. I …
Smooth E Baby Face Scrub
I really liked the Baby Face Foam so I decided to try the Baby Face Scrub. I had to ask my friend in Thailand again to get this for me because I’m that stingy that I don’t want to pay ebay’s price for it. For those who …
M.Asam Aqua Intense Hyaluron Serum
The makers of this product claim that as we age, we produce less hyaluron acid. They state that their product has hyaluron acid in it that is in a form that is more readily absorbed than other products containing the same ingredient. I was excited to try this …
Benefit’s The Youth As We Know It
Benefit’s newest anti-aging product, “The Youth as We Know It” is one of the few products on the market that actually makes my skin feel and look younger. So many anti-aging products claim to make the skin appear more youthful yet fail to deliver any results at all. This …
Revlon Beyond Natural Cream Lipgloss
I’m this kind of women who have been looking for a perfect lipstick-lip gloss all our lives. What we want is very hard to find, in fact. We want a very natural, but not invisible look. We want a stable, but not sticky texture. We want moisturized relief lips, …
Clinique compact powder
I have already tried different brands of compact pressed powder. I have tried Avon, Max Factor, Ever Bilena, Pond’s, etc. But so far the best compact powder I used is “Clinique” compact powder.Before I was not aware that such brand exist, I only came across this brand when …
Cargo BeachBlush
I went looking for some sort of face powder, brush or bronzer recently when I was at the mall because my face was becoming so pale that it was embarrassing. I always find makeup and cosmetics that I need at Sephora, so I took a look there. I found …
Bath and Body Works Black Raspberry Vanilla bubble bath
Bath and Body Works is a well known store, at least in the US, that sells bath and body products. I don’t typically shop at Bath and Body Works unless it’s to buy a gift because I’m not really that kind of person. There are people who like to …
Exuviance Blemish Treatment Gel
Exuviance Blemish Treatment Gel is the only acne spot treatment that works and works fast. The price I paid for this was 13.50, surely more expensive then over the counter spot treatments, but it worked like no other.
Just a dab of this on the affected area is all that …
Shik Quatro
As a woman, I confess, men’s razors are better than ours. My husband uses Gillette’s Mach 3 to keep his face baby soft. For years I have been using Gillette’s Venus razor for women to keep my legs and underarms not so baby soft.
I never had much …
E.L.F.’s Kabuki Brush
If you are looking for a kabuki brush that does not shed all over your face, then this is the product for you. If you are looking for the perfect finish to go with your mineral make-up, then you should seriously consider getting this product. I have …
Mac Mineralize Skinfinish Natural Powder in Light
Mac products are highly efficient, they last long and their powders and foundations can keep you partying for hours without ever retouching, if you do it would only be minimal retouching and slight dabs, and this product is no different from the other ones. I bought this compact for …
Dee-lish! Bath Therapy
Dee-lish! Bath Therapy is a product that I have only seen just recently, and is a shampoo, body wash, and bubble bath all in one. I found this product one day by wandering through Wal-Mart and looking at the sale displays. Not expecting anything extraordinary, I picked …

St. Ives Hypo-Allergenic Oil Free Moisturizer comes in a 4oz or 113g plastic tube. The moisturizer is color white, fragrance free and oil free cream. Before I started using the moisturizer, my skin on face was very dry especially on the T- zone area. I use St. Ives moisturizer …
POP Beauty Cassie’s Makeup Cabinet- Blush Palette
The Product
The blush shade names (based on the Pop Beauty website) are salmon pink, peachy-pink, bronze glow, and sugar baby pink. They did not specify which shade name belongs to, but I believe it goes from top to bottom, from left to right.
The container is a baby pink solid …
Makeup Forever Foundation
I have only been using this foundation for a few weeks now but I am very impressed with it. The foundation I was using got discontinued and I needed a new brand. Sadly the shade I used is kind of rare and hard to find. What impressed me with …
Gluta Derm Green Peeling Oil
During the hot summer season I had a lot of mosquito bites and it really irked me to see some blemishes that were still here on my legs; I don’t really want to use the strong TCA home peel as they say you can’t soap it for a week …
Liquid Color Ultra Wet Lip Gloss
Okay, these ones were on sale in Wal-mart, so I decided to try one out. Hate it a lot! Definitely, the king of gloss you buy only if you’re very short on money and if you need desperately a gloss. To qualify this crappy product I would say it …
Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium Straightening Iron
I recently purchased the Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium Straightening Iron. I already owned a straightening iron that I loved but it broke while in my suitcase after my last vacation. I straighten my hair almost daily so I needed a quick replacement. I chose to go with the Babyliss …
Rosacea skin care

Sally Hansen Effect Real Nail Polish Strips

The Body Shop Strawberry Lip Balm
I was gifted with this Body Shop lip balm one Christmas by an officemate. She was close to me and so I had no choice but to use because she kept asking about it. I was not disappointed though. It was also that time that I spent some time …
