What drew my attention is how earth friendly they are, with their raw materials - bamboo, natural loofah ( which is actually a vegetable ), and recycled plastic.

Bliss Poetic Brow Shaping Sugar Wax Kit

I’ve seen really good brow grooming kits like Tarte ( this, I really really love ), Anastasia ( of course, the best there is ), Tweezerman ( zee authority! ) Too Faced, and a whole lot more. What I haven’t really seen is a brow grooming kit that makes you wax your brows. Yes, wax. […]

The “It” Eyelash Curler , Now in Mini!

It’s always been an eternal battle between the two greatest eyelash curlers -Shu Uemura, and Shiseido.
This is just a great, travel-friendly mini-size of the famed Shiseido eyelash curler that just fits perfectly on your purse or travel makeup kit to save on space. Just in perfect timing, I was complaining on how “full” my overnite […]

Do You Use Complexion/Comedone Extractors?

I saw this over at Sephora, and it reminded me of a tool that I’ve been using.

It’s an comedone extractor. This one’s pretty sharper, for it has a lancet!
For those who have usual problems of open pores just like me, this tool is very useful for those pesky whiteheads that are on the surface. This […]
