Marc Daniels (MD), 60 Second Success Protein Treatment
When I saw this product on the shelf in the mall, I didn’t hesitate a moment to buy it. In fact, 150 ml/5.2 fl.oz. for $5 (on sale) seemed rather appropriate price. The bright pink package was so attracting, I just couldn’t resist. My purchase is called 60 Second …

With the advent of the numerous skin care products in the market, choosing the right one for my skin always left me in a state of bewilderment and confusion. So in order to be on the safe side and narrow down my choices of selecting a particular product, I …
Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Sun-Damage Moisture Lotion SPF 28
Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Sun-Damage Moisture Lotion SPF 28 is my favorite moisturizer and the only one I can use without getting acne. Even better, it has SPF 28!
The moisturizer itself is smooth and easy to spread, with a slight floral scent. The smell doesn’t bother me, and …
Olay Total Effects Moisturizer with SPF15
For years I used to use really, really expensive creams and lotions bought from the department store. They were by and large all very good, but cost a huge amount of money. I kept seeing adverts and articles for Olay products with claims that they were just …
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 …

I have been a fan of Alberto hair care products for years, so when I saw their new shampoo from the Herbal Escapes line with a free me fressia scent I just had to buy it. I love the scent of freesia flowers, and thought I would enjoy washing …
OPI In My Back Pocket Nail Polish
This nail polish is from the Paige Denims collection, and is just one of the fun, flirty colors of summer I used to sport on my nails. This is a bright orange that goes on opaque in one coat, but I used two in order to achieve full opacity, …
Safi Deodorant
I really love Safi Deodorant so much. I bought a lot of bottles just in case my set of deodorant runs out. The flavor that I always use would be the sunflower fragrance and this fragrance is thoroughly refreshing. The deodorant bottle is very small and all …
L’Oreal Infallible Plumping Lip Gloss
I recently fell for a bit of an advertising ploy when I bought a new product called L’Oreal Infallible Plumping Lip Gloss, which supposedly plumps lips without the nifty Botox injections and other invasive procedures. I bought it because I needed a new lip gloss, and I liked the …
Earth and water mascara duo
Earth and Water mascara duo is good mascara overall. While it is not my favorite mascara, I like the idea of it and it is good quality mascara. On one side of the mascara it is regular mascara and then on the other end there is waterproof mascara. It …

I begged my parents for a CHI Ceramic Flat Iron for Christmas when was in college. My dad found it for a much cheaper and very affordable price online at Folica and ended up ordering it for me. I ended up getting it two days after Christmas, but the …
Revlon Illuminance Creme Shadow in Khaki Suede
Crème eyeshadows are unfit for humid climes and oily eye lids. I learned that when I spent a great deal of time smudging creamy eye pencils, which work like —˜handheld’ versions of cream eyeshadows in pots. I guess it’s anatomy to be blamed for my hooded eyes …
Rimmel Magnifeyes Mascara
I love Mascara, an I am completely in love with the new flexible heads that many of the mascara companies have come up with. I purchased Rimmel’s new Magnif’eyes mascara because I loved the effectiveness of their ‘comb’ brushes which thickened and lengthened my lashes a lot) and …
Dare Neon Nail Polishes

Define and Sparkle by The Body Shop
Define and Sparkle by The Body Shop is a great buy! This I assure you and take it from someone like me who used to hate wearing mascara. I am not really fond of wearing mascara. I’ve had bad experiences with other brands which are messy, very unnatural, sticky, …
Conair 259 Infiniti Pro AC Motor Blow Dryer
I recently purchased the Conair 259 Infiniti Pro AC Motor Blow Dryer. To be honest, the thing that initially attracted me to this product was the color. It is bright orange in color and is hard to miss on the shelf. I did my research and decided that this …

L’Oreal Glam Shine Juice brilliance

CoverGirl LineExact Liquid Eyeliner

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick
I am not immune to advertising, but I have never before seen a product modeled by someone and then bought it immediately. I often get ideas, and eventually end up purchasing it, but I am smart enough to know that something that looks good on a model, whether it …

Maybelline Superstay 24 Hour Concealer
When I saw this I was quite ashamed of Shu Uemura and Mac as they didn’t have any 24 hour concealer like Maybelline! I am truly a Mac and Shu lover but I can’t just pass up something like this - it apparently lasts for up to 24 hours …
Celeteque Gentle Exfoliating Wash
I’ve always shied away from exfoliating products because I was scared of having visible flakes on my face from all the exfoliated skin. Still I tried Celeteque because it promises to be gentle on my skin and I am so glad I was not disappointed.
As instructed, I use it …
Nivea Good-bye Cellulite

A’pieu Pure Block Natural Sun Cream
Since I am conscious of the sun I tried a lot of sunscreens many more times than I can remember. In fact, I’d just grab whatever sunscreen I see in the market, and what’s so disappointing is they’re all the same. They’re really all the same because of texture (they’re …
Lush Solid Shampoo Bar in Seanik
I reckon the wackiest thing I ever did for my hair was dust powder on top of my head. I was told washing my hair daily could be omitted by using dry shampoos, which were warranted to work like, well, “wet” shampoos for that matter, and it’s true …
Victoria’s Secret Blackberry and Tonka Bean All-Over Moisture Salve

Juice Beauty Oil Free Moisturizer

Olay Regenerist Deep Hydrating Mousse Cleanser
Since the Regenerist Daily Regenerating Cleanser made my skin sting (only a little bit), I went and bought the Regenerist Deep Hydrating Mousse Cleanser. I paid almost $10 for it at my local grocery store. This cleanser also wasn’t locked up in a cabinet or plastic container. …
Lander 3 in 1 Cream Caramel Bath Gel

Korres Wild Rose Liquid Foundation

Garnier Skin Naturals Brightening Scrub Wash
