Treatments (Eye) -L'Oreal - Lash Boosting Serum
rated 5 of 5

this is an amazing product! i have been religiously applying this to my upper lashes twice daily for the past 2 weeks and i can see results - lashes seem a little longer and fuller without having to use any eyelash curler or mascara and i can't wait to see what this product can do as it promises results after 28 days of continuous usage. the downside is the serum leaves a "silicone-like" coating on my lashes, making them look like there's "eyeshit" on them.

Shampoo -Kiehls - Tea Tree Shampoo

i like it for its unobstrusive smell but it doesn't really make my scalp less oiler.. my scalp is still oily at the end of the day even with daily washing. but 1 thing good about using this is i notice i've dropped less hair in the shower after using this.

the sales person sold this to me when i said i wanted a conditioner for my dry ends. this turns out to be a styling aid which has no effect whatsoever on my dry ends.my ends are still dry as hay and coarse after using it for sometime. and the smell is weird - can't quite put my finger to it...

good stuff but compared to Gatsby oil film sheets, this one loses out as the size of the films are smaller than Gatsby's.

Gels/Soaps -Philosophy - Strawberry Milkshake 3 in 1
rated 3 of 5

lovely scent - smells just like strawberry milkshake, albeit a watery strawberry milkshake. u'd want to eat urself or drink it while showering, i kid u not! the setback is - the scent does not last, even if i douse myself in it twice in the shower. it is incredibly creamy though; folks with oily skin should not use it too often becos of its creamy texture - gives u pimples on the back.

Lotions/ Creams -Philosophy - Pure Grace Perfumed Body Lotion
rated 5 of 5

I got Pure Grace perfumed body lotion as part of a gift pack. I have been using Amazing Grace all along and I thought that was Amazing Grace until I looked closely at the bottle. Now, I love Pure Grace to bits as it smells really clean and fresh and I need not wear any perfume while wearing this lotion. The scent lasted all day and made me smell like a baby. I love the smell of a clean fresh scent and will def buy this product again. Thumbs up!

Masks -DHC - Alpha-Arbutin White Mask

i like this sheet mask as it doesn't come drooping wet and it is also really easy to put on the face. it also has only a very mild fragrance which is not overpowering and doesn't make my eyes water. however, i think i will have to use more sheets before i can see results though.

the product was far too oily for my scalp and my hair ends were still very dry and hair was also difficult to comb. my hairdresser commented i had dandruff and it was due to this shampoo as i didn't have dandruff before this. it smelt really nice though of peaches.

i got this as part of a xmas set - it had a nice soothing lavender smell and a colleague was raving about how it helps her to relax and sleep but it didn't work for me. apart for the nice smell, it didn't help me much for my insomnia.

wonderful wonderful scent that lasts and lasts. buy it for the scent as the lotion is so-so for moisturising.

it comes in a tiny fragile glass bottle and i have to handle it gingerly for fear of breakage. it dries up all too quickly before i can blend properly. my face also developed zits after using it for a couple of days. it has a nice rose scent though.

Scrubs -Skinfood - Black Sugar Mask
rated 3 of 5
princessw 5/22/2008 7:15:00 AM

the price is cheap for this product in my opinion but i won't buy it again cos my face developed pimples just after 1 usage although my face felt squeaky clean after the scrub. def not for gals with sensitive skin. it also smells a little like lemon scented washing detergent.

this has a nice lemony smell which reminds me of lemon pie. the consistency is thick enough and moisturises my hands wonderfully.

it smells wonderful on me and the scent lasts quite some time. i smell like a newborn baby everytime i use this. my only grouse is it doesn't quite foam enough. if you like foamy shower gels, you may not like this.
