Need to fatten up your wimpy lashes? L’Oreal’s latest mascara Extra-Volume Collagen promises to do just that. According to L’Oreal, the mascara is infused with collagen and hyaluronic spheres that clings to and magnifies lashes for “12 times more impact”. (I guess that means your lashes are 12 times bigger – like the overall lash [...]

As you may be able to tell from my pics in the eyelash tinting post, I have some eye area issues, including dark circles and some undereye baggage. For my latest miracle cure, I decided to try Murad Eye Treatment Complex SPF 8.
This product comes in a small pump bottle; it’s only 0.5oz and costs [...]

Mineral makeup strikes again! I picked up Revlon’s ColorStay Mineral Eye Shadow in Sunlit Jade, which has shimmery creme, bronze and olive colors. Revlon’s ColorStay 12 Hour shadow is very popular and long-wearing, so I was hopeful about the talc-free version. Most of the shades are so neutral, they’d work for most skin tones, but [...]

Keeping on the tinted moisturizer theme, I tried Sugar’s Sugar Tint oil-free tinted moisturizer and I’m a bit confused. How exactly are cosmetics companies differentiating between tinted moisturizer and foundation now? This and You Rebel were both quite thick and offered a lot of coverage (not that I’m complaining).
This product applies a lot like BeneFit [...]

I love tinted moisturizers in general, so I decided to try BeneFit’s You Rebel Lite. I find the whole “tinted moisturizer” thing to be a bit of a misnomer, as this has the consistency and coverage of a light foundation. And don’t let the “Lite” get you, either – they released this version after complaints [...]

Since I liked Biore’s ice cleanser so much, I thought I’d give these little masks a shot. The packaging is very convenient; each mask comes in an individual tube that’s easy to get open and has a nicely sized opening to ensure it doesn’t explode out on your hand. The smell was nice, but not [...]

I added this category just for this mascara because it made me mad. Don’t get me wrong: the tube is pretty and high-fashionish, shiny black with silver accents and that name-in-lights Max Factor logo. The problem is, they did this thing companies are doing now where they pack the brush outside of the tube, [...]

Why do I constantly switch haircolor products? I’m perfectly happy with the color I got a couple of weeks ago. Well, I know why – because I’m obsessed with trying new things and reviewing them for you, that’s why. Revlon Colorist was the flavor of the day, and here’s the rundown:
I’ve tried a lot of [...]
