Here are all my reviews:
  • Goody Ouchless Cushion Brush - Medium-Thick Hair

    This brush goes through my coarse hair very easily, detangles and removes loose hair without pulling. Also, it is easy to clean. It is not the prettiest brush, but definitely adequate to use at a gym.

  • L'Oreal Paris Infallible Never Fail Lipcolour Compact

    This Infallible Lip Colour Duo was on sale at Target, and I wanted to try this one ever since I saw their TV ad featuring Beyonce. They had a nice selection of shades. I like the convenient packaging, and since it is not a double ended stick, it is easier to find in my cluttered purse. lol. But I am not completely happy with the product itself. The combination of the liquid lipcolor part and the top coat resulted in dryness on my lips. Oh yes, the color did not come off when I drank, so I agree that this is longer lasting than a standard long-wearing lipstick. However, soon my lips became very crusty and flaky even with the topcoat. Maybe I was not doing it right, I followed the direction though....anyway. I removed some of these flakes with a tissue, and of course some color came off. Then, I had to re-apply them again. So in the end, it did not make good sense to me. Even though the color lasts long, I just did not like how my lips felt after using this duo.

  • Tweezerman Styling Shears

    Tweezerman Styling Shears

    Sharp and precise

    I have not been dissapointed with any of Tweezerman products that I own. And this is no exception. I just needed a pair of scissors or shears, and I did not want to buy a whole set because I just want to use it to cut my front hair. I did not know that Tweezerman sells different size shears individually, and I ordered one pair of model 2000 shears and one pair of thinning shears. The shears are light, comfortable and durable, and they give precision cuts. Very good quality hair scissors.

  • Nars The Multiple
    9.0

    Nars The Multiple

    Truly multi-purpose

    My friend, a huge fan of NARS, highly recommended this one. She uses her Multiples everywhere on her face. I got South Beach, which is shimmery peach/soft orange color. I have tried them as a cheek stain, a bronzer, an eye shadow base, and a lipstick. I like this as an eye shadow base and a bronzer because it is very blendable with both mineral powder-based foundation and liquid foundation. It gives my cheek and eyelids healthy glow. But it feels a bit dry on my lips. Also, when I used too much, their shimmery color made my cheek look a bit shiny and glittery. It takes some practice to get the application right. Anyway, it is smooth and creamy, but I have not experienced any major breakout.

  • Jo Malone Lime Basil & Mandarin Cologne

    I got this as a souvenir from UK. I don't mean to be ungrateful to the person who gave this to me, but I don't know what gave him the idea that I would like the Lime Basil Mandarin scent for perfume. I thought it was a men's cologne or smelled a bit like a room deodorizer spray. The basil overpowered any other scents. But I must admit, it smelled quite nice on my husband, like he just applied a clean crisp scent aftershave. So naturally I gave it to him. I love the simple and timeless bottle design, but their scent, not too much.

  • The Body Shop Concealer

    The Body Shop Concealer

    Convenient but does not conceal completely

    I like mess-free pencil concealers, but the coverage of this concealer was not enough. It did not cover my ugly and very visible blemishes and acne scars completely. Also, it took forever to blend with mineral powder foundation. While I liked their non-oily and not-too-dry texture, due to the poor coverage I would not re-purchase.

  • Sally Hansen No More Mistakes Manicure Clean-Up Pen

    The first time it worked nicely, and then, went down the hill from there. Although it came with two replacement tips, the tip became dirty and dried very quick. I wanted to use the tip a few more times, but then it became harder to correct mistakes. This pen may be more convenient, but Q-tip dipped in a nail polish remover can do a similar or even better job.

  • Bare Escentuals Refillable Mirror Compact

    I was tired of carrying the full size powder, and a BE sales lady recommended this one. When I saw the compact, I thought it was a wonderful idea and liked the design of the product. I filled it out with my bareMinerals SPF 15 Medium Beige foundation. The next day I regretted my decision. Each time I opened or closed it, some powder spilled. One time the powder was all over including inside of the carrying case that came with the mirror. A half-moon flat brush was good for touch-ups, but I still wish I read reviews here before I purchased it. If you are looking for a stocking stuffer for this holiday season, this may not be the best choice.

  • Lancome Color Design Sensational Effects Lipcolor

    I have this in shade Natural Beauty. It is so creamy that it goes on smoothly and applied evenly, which feels so much like Maybelline New York Color Sensational Lipcolor. The nude color gives a healthy brown pink look on my lips. I got this lipstick as one of the gift with purchase items, but if I had to pay full price, I would pick Maybelline New York Color Sensational Lipcolor.

  • Burt's Bees Therapeutic Bath Crystals

    These crystals dissolve quickly and create a minty aroma and vapor. The scent is quite strong, and if you don't like the vicks vapor rub smell, you may not like this scent. A nice warm bath with this product is very soothing, and brings relief to my muscle sore. Since this is bath salt, my skin needs to be nourished with a good body butter or cream after soaking with it. So I generally prefer to use this in spring/summer, but this bath soak is also good when I have cold and stuffy nose. The tin package is cool, but the lid is hard to open.
