Flirt!'s Rock N Rebel is not your typical feminine fragrance. I've tried this scent firsthand and let me tell you this, Flirt!'s Rock N Rebel fragrance has a bit of an edge to it. So if you're into feminine, floral scents, this isn't for you! Infused with luscious blackberry, apple nectar and pink grapefruit, Rock N Rebel will unleash you inner rock star! The only drawback I found that the staying power was lacking.

I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised with this nail color. Wild Card is a beautiful metallic purple with pink undertones. I only needed two coats of polish and it left my nails with a super shiny finish. Another surprising fact is that it’s formaldehyde, toulene, and phthalate free. For $1.99, it's a steal!

The metallic purple packaging of Rimmel Sexy Curves Mascara is eye-catching and for some reason reminds me of Urban Decay’s packaging (it’s the purple!). Sorry to say, but its packaging is the only great thing about this mascara. The Bottom Line? Rimmel’s Sexy Curves Mascara is a pretty mediocre mascara. I expected my lashes to look fuller and longer. Sadly, it didn’t. While it did lengthen my lashes, it did nothing to the volume. However, I do have to give credit that there was no clumping or flaking.

This concealer has a creamy and thin consistency, which allows for buildable coverage. Ideally, a synthetic brush is optimal for application. You can use your fingers, but that would not be hygienic. The concealer is highly pigmented and a small amount will give you full coverage. If you use too much, it will cake up. It provides excellent coverage for scars and redness. Surprisingly, I did not break out from this concealer.

This is a great foundation. What I love about MAC Cosmetics is that they have a vast color selection. For reference, I have slightly tanned and sensitve Asian skin with strong yellow undertones. MAC Studio Fix Fluid in NC37 is a perfect match for me. This foundation provides my skin the coverage it needs. You only need a pea-sized amount for excellent coverage. After one application, my skin looks flawless and more even toned. For that flawless look, I recommend using a stippling brush for applying the foundation - It will eliminate cakiness and you will not pick up too much product. In the past, I have used MAC Studio Fix Foundation in powder form and it broke me out in whiteheads. Amazingly, this liquid version of the foundation did not break me out.

L'Oreal Paris Telescopic Explosion Carbon Black Mascara
L’Oreal Paris Telescopic Explosion Mascara Lengthens, but no volume
I have to admit that this is the first L’Oreal mascara that I actually like. L’Oreal Paris’s Telescopic Explosion mascara definitely lengthened my lashes. However, there was no volume. The innovative spherical brush reaches each lash individually for easy precise and complete coverage. There was no clumping or flaking. It is also super easy to reach the inner lashes. What’s cool about this brush is that it can be applied vertically, horizontally or any way you like due to its round shape. The possibilities are pretty endless. Because of its compact size, this mascara may take a bit longer to apply than the traditional wand mascara. If you’re looking for a decent lengthening mascara, check out L’Oreal Paris Telescopic Explosion Mascara.

The sleek black patent packaging reminds me of Maybelline Lash Stiletto Mascara. The result? The mascara brush is pretty massive, a bit too large to reach the inner lashes. Compared to CoverGirl Lashblast, the brush is about the same size, but Lashblast is easier to manage. After one coat of mascara, my lashes clumped like no other. Yes, I was left with volumized lashes as the label claims to do so. But, I was also left with unattractive tarantula eyes and a smudged lower lashline. For some reason, I have never been a fan of L’Oreal mascaras. And honestly, I don’t know if I ever would be. Would I recommend this mascara? No.

I tried this Chapstick in Peppermint Rush and I have to agree with my girlfriends. The smell is light and fades away quickly. As for the shimmer factor, it is not very noticeable. And its moisturizing properties? Sadly, it does not deliver. Would I purchase these chapsticks again? Probably not.

This waterproof formula deodorant has surpassed the sweltering Los Angeles heat, chlorinated pool water and my extensive workout. My main gripe with most deodorants, is that I always have re-apply and they often do not hold up. Designed with a special two-click applicator to ensure the right amount of product, one application of Secret Clinical Strength is all that is needed for all-day protection. The deodorant may be white, but goes on clear. Definitely safe for the little black dress.

Don't let the unattractive burnt orange coloring of the body wash fool you. Yes, the color may look repulsive on your bath sponge, but in fact this body wash works wonderfully. The body wash gently exfoliates and leaves a slight brown sugar scent. In two weeks, my dry summer skin was left moisturized and soft. Overall, Caress Evenly Gorgeous is a great summer body wash that won't break break the bank!
