Have you ever tried a self tanner that left you streaky, orange or nut brown? Are you ordinarily so pale that you reflect light if it is shined on you, but are afraid to get any kind of “sun” since the damaging effects outweigh the tan look you desire?
If …

This L’Oreal Colour Riche Lip gloss was on sale at my local Walgreen’s awhile ago for $3.00 and although I’ve never tried the Colour Riche Lip Gloss Line before, I really liked the shade and was worth taking a chance on.
I really love the packaging to this …

There are just some times when blaring alarms and copious amounts of coffee aren’t enough to get you pumped for the day ahead. It’s times like these when I reach for my Neutrogena Men Invigorating Face Wash. Although I originally purchased it for someone else, I ended up discovering …

I really wanted this product to work, and it kind of did except it IMMEDIATELY caused me to break out!
I don’t mean the next day, or in a few hours, I mean immediately. The worse part is the coverage is amazing. I’ve had great success with their other products, …

I recently purchased Almay’s Bright Eyes Color Cream Shadow and I love it! I have seen ads for this product in many magazines and I have seen it tons of times at my local department store. For some reason, I never picked it up. Then one day, I walked …

My lips go through phases where they get very dry and chapped. It can get so bad that my lips start to peel and bleed. The only way to prevent this is to keep them hydrated and healthy so I recently purchased a container of the Bite Vitamin Gel …

I found this Smoothing Cream from L’Oreal to be average at best. I used the product according to factory directions and it left my hair feeling greasy. True, it did calm the frizz and added shine, but the greasy feel left this product below par for this company. I …

It had been a super hectic week at my workplace and by Friday I was on the verge of exhaustion. I was so looking forward to the weekend to rewind and relax at home.

Normally these days you cannot deny the importance of consciously taking care of your skin. The daily exposure to the sun is very harmful to our skin. The threat of skin cancer is imminent. I even read that fluorescent lights or even radiation caused by computers are found out …

Before using this moisturizer, I had been a faithful user of L’Oreal Hydrafresh All Day Hydration Aqua Essence.

The mascara in this makeup kit, which as vitamins and rice bran in it, really didn’t do anything for my lashes except add color, give them a little volume and make a little full. It didn’t do mush for length though. I definitely would wear this mascara if I …

I began using Urban Decay products about a year ago. I absolutely adore Urban Decay, excluding the high prices for small products. One of my first encounters with the Urban Decay company was with the Naked 3 eyeshadow palette. There are 2 other palettes, each with a different set …

I’ve never been much of a fan of Oil of Olay products. They always seem more designated in their design for older woman, and I’m only in my mid-thirties and I’m not quite ready yet to give in to the possibility that I’m just flat-out getting older and might …

When Bottega Verde offers testers I am the first one to try them out, the main reason for that is that I like Bottega Verde products and the other one is that I really like trying out new stuff. My sister has been a Bottega Verde member for years …

I was a loyal Shiseido customer before I switched to Lancome last year. Among all the Shiseido skin care product that I’ve used all over the years, I’d say Shiseido White Lucent brought out the best result on my face complexion.
Shiseido White Lucent is very popular in Asia due …

I know someone who wears Avon cosmetics and is possibly a hardcore fan: my mom. And apart from her, right now, that person could be me. I got this eyeshadow quad from mom, and while the packaging might look like a copycat from the elaborate Dior dentelle …

I hated those sticky lip glosses that would glue my hair to my lips with just the smallest gust of wind. Normal sticky lip glosses would also dry out my lips after the shine wore away. They didn’t make my lips kissable at all. And I love how …

I bought it …

I tried this Too Faced Magic Wand Illuminating Foundation when I was on my quest to find the perfect liquid foundation. This one looked really promising and I really hoped that when I tried it that it would work.

I personally am not impressed with Pantene as shampoo for my hair. i do not know if it is just me or the product just is not compatible with my body chemistry. Pantene gives me flakes and makes my scalp itch. Pantene boasts of making your hair beautiful than …

I love shopping for clothes except makeup. Like most women, I trifle with appearances. The possibilities between what can be applied and to what results are so vast. Take for instance the many things that can be applied between your skin and foundation, BB cremes, primers, …

I love Bath & Body works products and the store is so kawaii/cute! I mostly just go in there when I need a gift, but whenever I do, I stock up on my own bath and body products for myself as well. There are so many delicious …

Freeman Beauty is a name that I always see at Wal-Mart. And therefore, have never really thought that it was the best idea to want to buy something to do with my skin from there unless it had a bigger name like Olay or Clean & Clear. Until I …

I bought this product at 50% off, which is the reason I decided to give it a go. I don’t really have saggy skin in general. But I tried to lose a lot of weight the past months for a very big event, which I guess I was successful …

Packaging 3/5
Conventional white pump bottle. One pump is more than enough to dispense the product for a single shower.
Texture, consistency, appearance 4/5
Very thick and milky! Shower cream is smooth and luxurious and is not liquid-runny. The cream lathered up pretty well despite its thick consistency. The milky texture …

I remember, when I was a little girl, how my mother used to put vaseline on her feet at night, and then put socks on over it, and she would tell me how this would keep her from getting callouses all over her feet, and would keep them soft …

I’ve been a loyal consumer of dove’s beauty bars in a long time. Every once in a while, I get tempted to try something else. But I always revert back to dove. Sometimes, adverting can be hard to beat. I don’t remember how many times …

The Head & Shoulders Ocean Lift shampoo is just like the original Head & Shoulders formulation, it has pyrithione zinc, which is the shampoo maker’s signature way of dealing with the dandruff problem. To tell you the truth, I have been on and off Head & Shoulders shampoo. …
