Proactiv Dark Spot Corrector
I used to have acne scars from treating acne. The product I used back then to treat my acne was Neutrogena On-the-Spot Acne Treatment as far as I remember. While it was effective in treating my acne, it was not able to leave a scarless complexion. At the end …

Organic products seem to be all the rage these days. Going green and trying to be eco-friendly seems to be very trendy all of a sudden and this has even extended into the makeup and beauty world. I have seen so many organic makeup products in the beauty aisle …
John Frieda Collection Luxurious Volume Full Splendour Shampoo
I have been blessed with long and straight, wispy hair that doesn’t seem to tangle and frizz. However, the down-side of this is that my hair tends to be thin and lifeless looking. I have always wanted full hair that bounces with volume and shines as it is blown by …
Neutrogena Triple Moisture Conditioning Treatment
I bought this Neutrogena Moisture Conditioning Treatment because I have dry and damaged hair from a lot of hair dying and bleaching and plus using my blow dryer and flat iron a lot. I’ve used some of the Triple Moisture products by Neutrogena and they worked really well for …
Milcu Underarm and Foot Deodorant Powder
My best friend swears by this Milcu Underarm and Foot Deodorant Powder. She says that she does not like the sticky feeling of an anti-perspirant or deodorant. I was curious and so I tried it. I actually love it more for my feet than my underarm. I usually put …
MAC Eyeshadow: CLUB
This is one of my favorite MAC eyeshadows. It’s a deep green with a hint of gold shimmer. The best part about it is when I blend it. After applying to the lid, when I blend it outwards it fades to a soft brown. It’s almost like I’m wearing …

Anyone who has long hair, or has a little girl with long hair, knows how difficult it can be to get a comb or a brush though it when it is tangled. Suave is the maker of many, many hair care products, including shampoos, conditioners, hair sprays, gels, …
Inoco Express Nail Strips in French Manicure
I like doing my nails a lot. I think that clean polished finger nails are very feminine and classy. The downside is that I am not very good at applying typical liquid polish. It was this issue that led me to look at nail color stickers. One brand that …
Nair Ultra Hair Removal Sachet for Dry & Sensitive Skin
I have never had any problems with the regular Nair hair removal cream, but this one for dry and sensitive skin just does not seem to be effective enough. I bought a double sachet for 99p which is the usual price for just one sachet so I thought …
The Body Shop Vitamin C Daily Moisturiser SPF30
Regarding the company, as what I have known and based on my research is proud that they have the natural product. I have learned that it is owned by L’Oreal and that it is a British company. And because of these facts that I was motivated to buy a product …

Agoglogie Eye Contour Cream
Most women start using eye cream when they hit their middle twenties to middle thirties, mostly because this is the time when the signs of ageing start appearing. I am twenty seven years old, and lines around my eyes have started showing, so I started looking for a good …
Tom’s of Maine Natural Apricot Deodorant Stick
I love the Tom’s of Maine natural products and buy them often. This is the first time I purchased Tom’s of Maine natural apricot deodorant stick and I wasn’t disappointed too much.

Infallible Lipgloss (L’Oreal Paris)
Pros: Long lasting color, pretty shade and good price and comes with a nice wand for application.
Cons: Too sticky, stains, lipgloss but more like a combo of lipstick and gloss, would stain your teeth if applied to much.
Well, I have had bad experience with this product. I did not …
Etude House Precious Minerals BB Cream in Sheer Glowing Skin
A common fault in many BB creams is that they never try (as in never!) to diversify their selection of shades. My problem with all the BB creams is none of them, thus far, matches my skin. I didn’t choose this shade myself, as it was given …
L’Occitane Relaxing Pillow Mist
L’Occitane’s Relaxing Pillow Mist is a product that I always keep close at hand…it’s literally one of my favorite products ever.

John Frieda Frizz Ease Serum
I recently got a hair trim and decided to start taking care of my hair really well. I bought a lot of hair products to protect my hair. I used to use this serum a long time ago, but stopped using it because it was too expensive. However, I …
Clarins Energizing Morning Cream
Clarins Energizing Morning Cream is one of the best moisturisers that I’ve ever used!
The first thing that made me go ‘hmm’ in approval is its scent. For me, the scent of a moisturiser is very important. Afterall, I’m going to have to smell it for several hours at least! …
Pond’s White Beauty Pinkish-White Glow Lightening Cream
A few years ago, I tried using this lightening cream from Pond’s which my dad bought me. I was satisfied with its results on my skin that I want to buy one again. I just don’t know why I forgot to purchase another sachet of it again. Last month, …

Walgreens Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen SPF 55
I purchased this sunscreen because I was not completely happy with the Oil-Free Faces oil-free sunscreen I had purchased at CVS. It was a little bit more expensive but I knew I wouldn’t find out if it was any better or not unless I gave it a try. I’m …
Clinique Superbalanced Powder Makeup
I hate the brush that this product comes with. It is tiny and hard to maneuver so I do not use the brush that this makeup comes with. I switch to a fluffier Kabuki brush to apply this makeup. The makeup tin itself is like most other mineral makeups …
NARS Lip Gloss in Striptease
This is one of the daring names that you find so often in the NARS lipstick and lip gloss collections. Some of the other names are Promiscuous, Manhunt, and Sexual Healing - just to name a few. I got this lip gloss in Striptease as a bonus when I …
MAC StudioFix powder
Everyone thinks MAC is where it’s at when it comes to makeup. I think it’s mostly all hype. I tried their powder, which is supposed to be a powder and makeup base all in one. I hated it. It sat on top of my skin and didn’t blend in, …
L’Oreal’s Color Mineral Eyeshadows
I really didn’t get what they meant by ‘mineral’ on the label until my dermatologist told me that the product really contains minerals that can help take care of your skin. Now, that was surprising for me. The next day, I went to a beauty shop to check on …
Tresemme Touchable Curls Shaping Milk
Coming from a background of several mixed races, my hair has an odd texture to it to be frank not quite curly, not quite straight, with a tendency to be frizzy after it dries and I run a brush through it. There are times that I love …
Black Opal Cover and Clear Concealer
I bought this product in the fall to cover up dark under eye circles. I have these marks due to allergies. I do not use special topical products to correct the problem as the skin there is too sensitive to becoming thin and wrinkly. I also do not want …
Maybelline Watershine Lip Gloss
Glossy lips look good, they make you feel good and shiny lips seem to look far fuller too. If I am partying then lip gloss is always top of my list. My make up bag is crammed with lip gloss, all makes and all prices so this Maybelline Watershine …

I have …
Nice ‘n Easy Color Blend Foam hair color

Maybelline Define-A-Line Eyeliner
I swear by Maybelline’s Define-A-Lash eyeliner. This is my go to eyeliner and without it on my face every day I feel like I may as well not be wearing any makeup at all. It goes on smoothly, leaving rich color and no smudges. Just in case your own …
Herbal Essences Colour Me Happy Shampoo and Conditioner
I hate to admit that I ever buy a skin or hair care product solely for its scent, but I did just recently, and the product turned out to be very good as well. While at a friend’s house, I caught the scent of her hair, and I asked …
Phisoderm Anti-Blemish Cleansing Pads
A few months ago, I used to have some light pink acne across my forehead, which were still a little painful and itchy. I did not have money to spend so I just decided to use the cleansing pads I used before, which actually did well for me. I used …

LUSH Imperialis Moisturizer
I use moisturizer daily so I run out pretty quickly. This means that I try a lot of different brands of moisturizer. The most recent addition to my collection was the LUSH Imperialis Moisturizer. I am a huge fan of LUSH products, but this one was a slight disappointment …
Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum
This product has just become one of my favorite products as a hairstylist. It works best on natural hair but is very affective for chemically treated hair as well. It smoothes unruly hair and leaves it feeling soft, smooth and full of body. I have nothing to say but …
Aspirin Regular Strength as a Face Mask for Acne
Aspirin has a lot of purposes, most of them are medical related and orally taken. But in this review I will discuss about its use as a face mask. Aspirin is a brand of pure acetylsalicylic acid, which is one of the main ingredients are are used in acne …
Palmolive Milk Honey Liquid Handwash

Tarte 24/7 Natural Lip Sheer with SPF15
I am a big fan of Tarte’s product as they believe in using natural ingredients in their cosmetic products. However, they are also quite pricey and usually come in very small amount of product versus the money spent. However, I still buy them as they use natural ingredients. This lip …
The Instyler curling iron
Out of all the curling irons I have talked about in my time I finally have one worth screaming about. I can honestly say that this one is golden. I spent my whole entire life looking for a curling iron that did more than just curl. I wanted some …
Biogenic Isopropyl Alcohol
Last Thursday, I went to the grocery at my favorite mall and saw a new (at least for me) alcohol with a built in sprayer. I have been looking for something like this for months!!! Ever since I saw my officemate using her alcohol which came from the …
Dermedex Biotox Cleanser and refining cream
Unlike many 3-step cleansers that I’ve come across, this facial product(made in France) only requires two steps:the cleanser and the refining cream.
I was skeptical at first and bought the really small pack, which claimed that it was for “skeptical users”. And I liked it …
Conair 1″ Professional Ceramic Straightener
I never leave home without my Conair Professional Straightener! This is the third one of these I have purchase (the first one I left in a hotel, the second I used so much it broke). I have been straightening my hair for about 18 years now and this …
Aloe Vesta Body Wash & Shampoo
Though I’ve been known to spend some good money on shampoos and body washes in the past, I’m still a frugal shopper and like to find a single product that can do more than one function. I have very dry skin on my body, very oily skin on my …
Nivea deodorant double effect
Nivea deodorant double effect is the best! I bought the smaller bottle just to test it out for rm4.50 and that’s so cheap. I shaved my underarms and it gave me smoother underarms over a week now. Now that is impressive because with other deodorants, after 3 days I …
Sally Hansen Hard as Wraps
On a recent shopping trip, I was searching for a nail hardener to help with my brittle, flimsy nails. I found a product that caught my eye, Sally Hansen Hard as Wraps. This nail enamel claims to make you nails as strong as they are with nail …
