This lavender color lotion actually does not smell like lavender flower to me, but definitely a mixture of several flowers including chamomile. On the bottle, it says "Aromasoothe", and it claims to relax our senses. Indeed, I notice that this lotion leaves lingering fragrance on my skin, not too strong but surely noticeable. Also, it is non-greasy and fast-absorbing. If you love the flowery scent, you will love this lotion. But if you don't like the flowery scent, I think this is a wrong pick for you.

I tried Milani Buzz Worthy Lip Gloss - Bee Have, which was colorless. I bought it to give my regular lipstick additional shine. Yes, the clear gloss gave me shine, but, wow, this one was even stickier than Victoria's Secret Rush. I remember that I looked like I just kissed honey or something. I have not used ever since, well at least it was very inexpensive (I think I got it at Walgreens).

When I saw this scissors featured on a magazine a few years ago, I ordered it online for my husband. He has bushy and wild eyebrows, and he had been trimming with a pair of scissors which came with a sewing kit until I gave him this scissors. It looks cute, but it works even better. It is lightweight and very sharp, which allows him to trim his eyebrows precisely. Another great tool by Tweezerman!!

This is one of the lightweight moisturizing foot creams that I have tried. I feel that the texture is not too thick. This is scented, but at least the fragrance is not too overpowering. Although it is not as healing or intensive as balm or ointment, it leaves my feet feeling hydrated and soft. Good value too. I would recommend this for those who don't like greasy and heavy balm or ointment.

I had not been convinced about all the hype about foundation primer. But this one changed my mind. It makes a difference, and it works for both liquid and powder foundation. This primer feels a bit watery at first, but it goes on smooth on my facial skin. So why not giving the perfect score? I have not tried this primer during hot and humid summer yet. If it works in summer, I'll know for sure that this would work all year long. Also, it smells funky. I may be exaggerating, but it has a hint of the smell of burning plastic.

I use these bobby pins to hold the sides of my hair in place while working, or to secure ponytail or bun. Their "Espresso" is perfect for my hair. This collection is smaller than their "ouchless" collection, but for more concealed looks, these pins do better job.

This set was $1.99 at a pharmacy! So I cannot complain too much. First of all, they are not the best looking one, but not the worst either. They stayed all night long, but yeah, unfortunately, lost their shape so I did not reuse them. I think an important fact to use false eyelashes is a eyelash glue. You have to invest money on a good quality eyelash glue. And don't forget to use tweezers to bring this fake eyelashes close to natural lash line. BTW, I find that NYC's another eyelashes "Double Cross Eyelashes" is slightly better.

Light pink "Bunny" is more sheer than they look from the package. I apply it evenly twice but it still looks sheer and shimmery as well as a bit chalky. I think this color does not have enough pigment for my skin tone. I went back to a VS store to see if there was any other color I would like, but their color selection was quite limited. I will stick with MAC for eyeshadows.

I am pleasantly surprised that this Sally Hansen's polish remover works faster and more thoroughly than my nail polish remover from a dollar store. This "Extra Strength" may be more concentrated formula than another Sally Hansen polish remover (one for Sensitive Nails) that I use sometimes. Removing nail polish can be messy and stinky, but at least this helps to do it quicker. When I travel, I use Cutex nail polish remover pads because of the convenience but these pads are too expensive for everyday use. This one is very affordable and effective, and it seems to be sold at almost any grocery store or pharmacy.

A few winters ago after skiing my feet got cracked and became itchy. Someone gave me this medicated power. I remember that it smelled a bit strong and odd at first, but I got to used to it later. The consistency was very fine and silky. It immediately gave me a soothing relief. A few days, the chafing was gone. Since the incident, we always have one bottle at home. My husband uses for his occasional athlete's foot, and this powder gave his itchy feet an instant cool sensation. Believe it or not, my friend uses this powder to help to relieve her baby's diaper rash. This is all purpose, versatile medicated powder.
