Today I thought I would do a review about a great all purpose kind of product - the Lucas Paw Paw Ointment. I picked up this product at the beginning of winter earlier this year after my sister recommended it to help mend my dry lips.

Today I thought I would do a review about an great product I have discovered. It all started a couple of weeks ago when I woke up in the morning to find my face all red and bumpy. It was such an uncomfortable and not to mention unsightly allergic reaction to a new face cream I was using. The QV Face Rescue Gel was a welcome addition to my daily face routine and I feel that it helped me though these very uncomfortable couple of weeks.

When Priceline had a L'Oreal sale on recently, I decided to pick up a new mascara that I have not tried before. It isn't exactly the newest product on the market but it is pretty new to me so I thought I would do a quick review on it.

This product was an impulse and I regret not having read a few reviews on it before making a purchase because it is probably the worst L'Oreal mascara that I have ever used.

You ladies probably already have noticed a new brand that has reached our shores earlier this year - Essence. Even though it is pretty new to Australia, this brand has been available in Europe for many years. I remember when I was in high school and every time we used to travel to Germany to visit family, I would always stock up on Essence goodies. 

Ever since I discovered this brand, I have always been impressed with the quality of their products and their value for money.

Proactiv is a company that we have all probably heard of because they are always on TV and usually have celebrities like Katy Parry endorsing their products. As you guys know, I don't suffer from acne so Proactiv product's never appealed to me. It wasn't until I received some of their products in my Glossybox subscription that I realised that some of their products are suited for all skin types.

During the summer months I like to use a lot of fake tan products so for that reason I am always on the lookout for an effective exfoliator.

If you are a beauty fanatic like myself, then you have probably already heard about the latest beauty craze to hit Australia - magnetic nail polish. I was always curious about how it would actually work and I must admit I have been very impressed with the results. This product is perfect for a busy girl like me because it makes creating nail art a breeze.

The Nivea Q10 plus anti wrinkle tinted day cream is the latest product I have been trying out.The reason that I was attracted to this product was because of its anti-agening properties and UVA and UVB filters.
According to the product packaging, it is a "tinted pigment moisturiser with a sheer finish to suit all skin tones."

The Urban Decay Melt Down makeup remover is a gel based makeup remover that is very different form my conventional Nivea liquid makeup remover that I am used to.

According to Urban Decay, this product "can take off Urban Decay's longest-lasting products, and it's good for your skin too. Sea Fan Extract combats inflammation, while beta carotene (a source of Vitamin A) and Gatuline In-Tense (harvested from the South African Rain Forest Peekabo plant) revitalize collagen production. Cranberry and raspberry seed oils, along with kukui nut and oat oil, moisturize and replenish.

Given that I am a beauty lover and all that fancy talk sounded very promising, I thought I would give this product a go. This product retails at $24 from Sephora and is probably the most expensive makeup remover I have ever purchased!

I recently was given the opportunity to trial Nailene so natural everyday French nails and I must admit that I was impressed with their quality.

To be honest I did not expect much from this product as I have always had bad experiences with stick-on nails but I was pleasantly surprised at how long these lasted and how natural they looked.

As you guys know from my previous post on this topic, for years I have been searching for a product that will neutralize the golden tones in my hair. Well, I am happy to announce that my search has finally come to an end! Several months ago my hairdresser recommended for me to try the Matrix Solutionist So Silver shampoo and I have never looked back.

Earlier this year I discovered a product that has solved all my skin issues and I have never looked back! Now you might be expecting for it to be a high end, expensive product but lucky for me, it is actually very affordable. This truly amazing product is simply Rose Hip Oil which you can purchase from your local Priceline or pharmacy.
