I received this product Nutriganics Smoothing Serum by Body Shop for free to review and I must say I am impressed with it. This serum is 99% natural wich I love because I m always trying to be more envronmental conscious.It comes in a pump bottle which makes for and easier application. I love the kind of citrusy scent that it is not too strong. I have used this for about 2 weeks now and I have to say that I did started to see some improvemennts. I have some fine lines around my eyes and my mouth and they started to fade. Also the texure is very nice very creamy, light and not too greasy and it absorbs into the skin very quick leaving my skin very soft and smooth. I also liked the fact that it didnt make my skin breakout like other products do. I would definetly buy this when I will finish this bottle since the price it is very affordable. I would recomend this for people who want to smooth out those fine lines and even out their skin texture. -

I used the original formula of this but when i saw that they have a plumping version i was so excited and i got it.
I currently have plumped rose. This is a bright medium pink with multicolored shimmer. What i love about these glosses:
-First the applicator which is totally different than the others: a sponge applicator with a keyhole in the middle which makes a great application
-i love the smell like candy
-the texture it is very creamy not too glossy and pigmented; it is not sticky nor drying
-for the staying power i actually tested and it stayed on my lips for 6hours
-now for the plumping part: it doesn’t tingle or sting like other plumpers (at least i didn’t feel any of these) and it slightly plumps the lips by smoothing the lines and making the lips look fuller.
Overall i love this plumper and I am on my third one right now.

I received a $2 coupon from a grocery store and I decided that i need to try this new invention.
I went i bought the deep facial cleanser which is the green bottle. I love the packaging because the “scrublet” is sealed to the bottle so people won’t touch it and the colors are captivating.
The scrublet is very soft and gentle with my skin. The cleanser has a nice soapy smell with a minty hint and it is a gel like formula. What i can say is that i love this product I don’t know if it is the scrublet or the formula but it actually worked. I have medium pores on the sides of my nose that extend on to the cheeks and i always looked for something that will minimize their appearance. I tried this twice a day and i must say that i saw result after using this for about 3 days. My pores look a lot smaller and some of them have disappeared. It didn’t irritate my eyes at all and gives you a fresh feel. I have combination skin and it can be a little be drying but I didn’t have any problems with that because I moisturize every time after i cleanse (have to keep away those wrinkles). But there is also a sensitive formula for those people who have those problems, so they can try this amazing product. I will try the other formulas i the future. Great discovery.

After i heard a lot of people raving about this lipstick I decided to try it on. It took me approximately half an hour to decide which color to buy because of the verity of color available. So from the pink collection i got:
005 Pink sand: this is a light and bright pink with shimmer and on my lips looks a little bit frosted
015 Born with it: this is a a pale pink with a little bit of shimmer
025 Pink please: this a pale nude pink
From the Nude collection i got: 205 Nearly there: this color is advertised on the Maybelline website but i must say that on my lips it looked totally different. This is a golden brown with a lot of shimmer.
Now what i liked about these lipsticks. First of all I liked all the colors that I got and the packaging. Looks very expensive and I love that the lipsticks goes all the way in the tube so when you put the cap on you are not going to ruin the lipstick.
I loved the smell and the texture is divine very moisturizing creamy and soft. I have dry lips and usually i don’t wear lipsticks because they dry out more but these kept my lips moist. It didn’t crease or bled and it stayed on my lips for about 2-3 hours. I have nothing bad to say about these lipsticks. I am looking forward to try new colors.

I got a $2 coupon for any Maybelline lip product so I decided to go find one at my local grocery store. I got there and I saw a new display for the Color Sensational line- "The Shine sensational Lip gloss".
These lip-glosses come in 14 different color and they are only around $5. It took me a while to decide which color to buy because all colors looked great and I went with the Glamorous Guava. The color is a medium pink with a very fine gold shimmer. This smelled exactly like the fruit-guava so if you don’t like the smell of guava you are not going to like this lip-gloss. The lip-gloss goes on very smooth on the lips and what i liked the most is that it is not sticky at all. It gave my lips a lot of shine with a tint of color. What i liked about this particular color is that you can actually see color on your lips. I hate when i buy a colored lip-gloss and when i apply it goes on clear. It made my lips feel very luscious and it felt very moisturizing. It stays on the lips for more than an hour without losing the shine or color. Overall I am very excited about this product and i will definitely buy this in different colors.

I got this mascara as a sample with a gift with purchase. I was very excited to try this one because I saw this advertised in so many magazines.
So let me start by describing the brush which is a slim and long fiber brush that narrows at the end great for those hard to reach corners. The formula is not to wet, very dark and it didn’t irritate my eyes at all.
I have fairly long lashes that lack some volume so after I applied this I was amazed. The mascara elongated my eyelashes with a lot with a lot of definition. I applied 3 coats to get some volume and i didn’t experience any clumping at all. The formula stayed on my lashes all day and i didn’t get and flaking or smudging all day which would have been really bad for my eyes as I wear contact lenses.
Overall this is great mascara and now I see why so many people rave about it. So those people who crave for length should definitely try this mascara.
