One of my favorite sunscreen lip balms to use in the summertime to help protect my lips while I am in the sunshine is Hawaiian Tropic Aloe Vera Sunblock Lip Balm. This lip balm is super moisturizing and contains ingredients in it that make this lip balm waterproof so …

I am lucky enough to have a friend who is an Avon Lady for she always gives me free Avon products whenever we see each other. The recent Avon product I got from her is the Avon Natural Olive Oil and Bamboo Extract Hair Conditioner. There is only …

I’ve always been been prone to dark underarm areas so I decided to try Nivea’s extra whitening deodorant. There wasn’t much difference in the first few days but after a week I could see slight decrease in the discoloration under my arms.
The deodorant doesn’t contain any alcohol so it …

Caudalie is one of those fancy shmancy “natural” skincare brands that makes you believe in all those natural ingredients that will make you look effortlessly beautiful, like all the women that promote this brand. However, the pricing of this brand is usually somewhat higher than the costs of other natural …

The Sunday Newspaper ran a coupon for these razors with a money back rebate. I figured, “What the heck.”
I’ve been shaving my legs with one of these razors now for over 2 weeks with needing to shave every three days. The razor is still sharp and I …

I admit it, I splurged, I splurged bad. The MAC Spring Color Forecast Collection was just too tempting. I got a blush, an eyeshadow quad, and a lip gloss from them, and I’m ashamed to write the price. So I won’t, now, The Blush Ombre was in Vintage Grape, …

Most of the time I prefer to use powdered foundation. However, there are still rare occasions in which I will use a liquid foundation. I like powdered foundations better because the liquid ones tend to be thin and runny and they often just don’t apply easily. I really loved …

For face powders, I choose MAC because I trust the brand. I bought the MAC Studio Finish SPF 25 in NC30 because that was the powder that best matched my skin color. I am of Asian descent and my skin is more yellowish than pinkish. I chose this too …

Organix Anti-Breakage Serum
Even though it had been about six months since i’d accidentally fried my hair, the ends were still breaking at a dramatic rate. My ends were thinning and my hair just couldn’t get over this little hump and grow past the length it was at. So everytime …

I am not a great fan of make-up, I basically like the minimalists look, preferring to just put on powder, a smattering of foundation and lip gloss. However, a friend recommended this eyeliner because she said it completely altered her look, without compromising her minimalist style. She suggested that …

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 …

Urban Decay is perhaps one of the funkiest and grooviest makeup brands out there. My eye shadow palette showcases a wild range of colors labeled with equally wild names (e.g. half-baked, Y2K). This is definitely make-up for those who aren’t afraid to wear make up.
The colors are bright and glittery, …

My hair sometimes needs a “pick me up”! My hair will naturally get oily a day after I shower so it is important to me to try and get rid of that oily feeling.
I remember at my friends house one day I saw her using the TRESemme Dry …

Chanel Pro Lumiere Liquid Foundation comes in a pump bottle. One or two pumps is enough to apply the foundation to my whole face depending on how much coverage I want. I like the fact that this foundation is in a pump bottle because I think that …

I used to have stretch marks on my butt and thighs, which was pretty annoying. They turned white over the years after not curing them, but I wanted to solve this problems by buying a stretch mark cream. I did not know of any good stretch mark cream that …

We women like to nitpick about our bodies and over-all appearance. I think it’s just something genetically wired into our make-up that causes us to do this. No matter how beautiful and seemingly perfect a woman is, she’s going to complain that there’s something she doesn’t like about herself. …

It has always been very difficult for me to find fingernail polish that is long-lasting, which is why the majority of the time I forego using it altogether or I exclusively go to nail salons. After talking to one of my friends about my frustration about using nail polishes, …

Hello girls, do u feel it comfortable to manage those days, I mean the monthly periods. It was not very easy and comfortable for me to manage the periods before because the pads, which I used, were not very good and I used be very dull all the …

Though I am now in my early thirties, my skin is just as blemish ridden as it was in my teens and nothing I seem to eat, drink or cleanse my face with seems to make any real difference. This doesn’t stop me from trying out various treatments …

Most of the time I do not choose to paint my fingernails because I tend to have difficulty find a great nail polish that is long lasting. Most of the products on the market which are designed for extended wear cost more than what I would prefer to …

Sometimes my hair can get really dry, frizzy, rough feeling especially when I’ve dyed or bleached my hair and also when my hair has a lot of heat on heat and it builds up over time. I use my blow dryer and flat iron a lot, at least 4 …

I am generally a fan of Bare Escentuals products. I think that some of them are rather overpriced and others are kind of pointless for me to use (like self-tanner since I already have a darker skin tone), but I generally like their products. However, I recently encountered a …

Product: Maybelline expertwear Eye Shadow Trio
Color: Chocolate Mousse
I’m really not a fan of brown eyeshadow. Brown is probably my least favorite color of all time; I don’t own any brown shoes, clothing, or accessories. However, when I purchased the Chocolate Mousse palette for a friend, I was intrigued …

I love my body sprays and lotions and bath products, in general, no doubt about it, and I blame it all on my very best friend in the world who dresses like a tom boy but wouldn’t be caught dead without at least a dozen Bath and Body products …

The only time my hair ever looks —˜super straight’ is when I leave the hair salon as I am not too brilliant at straightening my own hair. I do not have the patience. All I wanted from this product —“ Phil Smith Be Gorgeous Super Straight Leave …

I recently had a misconception about my hair’s porosity level. All the while I believed to my guts that my hair was highly porous and required plenty of care. I was sticking to a hair care regimen meant to balance the preconceived excessive moisture I thought I …

Lately my eyebrows have been looking horrendous because I’ve been neglecting them, not getting them waxed/threaded often and plucking out the extra hairs. Also, I’ve been using a regular 99 cent eyebrow pencil to darken them and shapen them up, but it hasn’t been doing my justice! I don’t …

The way I see it, there are 2 kinds of eyeshadows. Category A refers to flattering eyeshadows that we use routinely to look our best, sometimes out of necessity. There’s also category B which is purely for recreation…just like the Milani Paint eyeshadow palette.
Perhaps inspired from an …

The Creative Nail Design Solar Oil Conditioner is what I needed, or thought I needed, because it’s supposed to soften the cuticles but strength the nails, and that sumed up very nicely what problems I was having with my hands at the time. My cuticles have always, for as …

I heard about this eye liner from a friend of mine. It was shown on TV too and yes, it came with a catchy sounding jingle. I also heard that it was not a good product. I don’t judge that quickly so I went and bought one from the …

I have been using this moisturizer for a year now, and I absolutely love this product. My skin is so dry, and if I don’t use a moisturizer, my skin will crack. And during the winter months, moisture is a major plus. This product really does keep …

I have sensitive dryish skin already, and washing my face with our local water often gives my skin a scaly appearance, which is really noticeable when I go to apply my foundation.
I had tried these daily facial cloths years ago when travelling, and recently decided to start using …

My husband is very handsome and looks very attractive. He is my lovely darling, whom I love all the time. And I also like the things what he likes because, he has got very good choice. My husband uses the Yardly body powder which is very …

Lipstick is my weakness, and I love trying new varieties and colors. Sometimes it doesn’t always work out so well, especially with the cheaper brands. Every once in a while, I will give Jordana another try, although by now I should know better.
THE PRICE:
I bought this lipstick in the …

I’ve already reviewed 1 of the Avon Shower Smoothie products and that one would have to be my favourite one, but this is my 2nd favourite and I would say there probably isn’t that much in choosing between the both of these. There is 3 in the range and …

I am a sucker for lip gloss. I love a gloss that leaves my lips with a nice shine yet does not look unnatural or freaky. I really like L’Oreal Paris HIP Color Presso Lip Gloss. It is a pretty cool product because it has two different tubes and …

Bodycology Peach Mango Body Bar is an 8 oz bar of soap that is fused together with a sponge. Yes, that’s right: soap on one side and sponge on the other. All I can say is, *bad idea*. The wet bulky soap becomes slippery, and does not work like …

We don’t have history of Atopic Dermatitis (Skin Asthma) or Ketatosis Pilaris (chicken skin) and never been experienced any skin allergies or skin abnormalities. So I was so bothered when I noticed that my skin was having those kinds of disorder. As I remember, this was started when I …

I have so many lotions open at the same time, for different parts of my body. For some reason, people like to give me lotion for Christmas and I accept it with much gusto, like this body lotion from The Body Shop in Neroli Jasmin which I received from …

‘Foamingly Clean Facial Wash’ By Benefit in my opinion, is one of the best face cleansers out there if you need nothing more than to wash your face before bed or when you get up in the morning; It seems to be best for people with little to no …

My lips would certainly turn dry and flaky during cold weather. Of course this could lead to lip irritations or sores if not given due treatment. This is the reason why I always make sure that I have a lip protector during cold seasons. I noticed that …

Dove Intense moiture is just what it says on the bottle, intense moisture. I was really excited when they put ot this product fairly recently. i really have enjoyed using Dove soap throughout the years, and also really enjoy getting the same quality from my hair shampoo. The …

I recently bought makeup from NYX cosmetics and this is the first time that I have tried to use the NYX concealer in a jar. People have said that this is a dupe of the MAC studio finish concealer (which costs roughly $14, so when I saw that the …

I have always been a lip balm/lip gloss person rather than a lipstick one and when deciding to try out a product, I only have 2 requirements: effective moisturizer for dry & chapped lips and after taste that won’t interact badly with the taste of my food. So …

Essence cosmetics claims to be Europe’s most popular brand of makeup, and back in winter of 2009 they debuted their line in the United States for the first time, at ULTA stores across the country. I had never heard of this brand prior to coming across it in an …

The next day, she came to me and brought me this …

I have used a lot of Mascara’s from Avon and tend to just try new ones when they come out as they normally are a good price - usually £5. This Mascara came out a good while ago and it is 1 of my favourites. This normally costs £10 …

I don’t own that many products from Revlon, but honestly I’m going to start avoiding their eye products! Liquid eyeliner is not a cosmetic thing I use often, I like using my pencil better because I’m less likely to get smudging, and I feel that it’s much easier. I …

If your anything like me, coming to the realization that your hair is progressively thinning at the age of 24 can be hard to accept. Blame it on genetics or blame it on stress; whatever the case may be, you are going bald.
I quickly began to research hair …
