If you are a regular follower of my blog then you would know that Listerine is my go to product for oral hygiene and that too preferably in the original flavor. There's just something about that classic Listerine tingle that makes me feel like my mouth is truly clean.

Gillette's Skin Soothing Shave Foam has been my go-to for a while now, offering a smooth shave without irritation. It really helps making the shaving process a lot easier. 

I have had couple of experiences in the past which have put me off from chemical or commercial bug repellant products. One was a kid's mosquito repellant from Boots UK which leaked in the luggage on the way from London to Lahore. I placed the bottle on my vanity and within a day it stripped off the wooden surface. 

Then another time when I used to apply Mospel on my body, my skin started turning dark. Its not only the case with Mospel but with other commercial repellants too. I am glad that we now have the option of organic bug repellents for kids, a form of luxury which we did not have back in our times. Skin Deep has this cute mosquito repellent which I used amply on my baby. In my opinion, its an average product that is effective for a short span of time. I won't be spending my money buying it again as there are better options available in the market. 

So these hair masks or hair treatment products are widely available in the market. They are decent products but nothing outstanding. I used this hair mask as a hair conditioner for my hair. I prefer to buy large jars as I use conditioners in greater quantity due to my chemically treated hair which require me to use extra product for maintenance. 

Provate is a medical, oral solution for skin itchiness and redness. Its also helps with my seborrheic dermatitis. I apply it when the scalp itching and irritation gets too much, it helps in calming my scalp. 

 

I am regular user of micellar water and toners so cotton pads are a must have product for me. I keep one bag in use and stock up on one as a back up. In my experience, Flormar cotton pads have been great. 

Its a sample sized product that I got with some purchase. I got 3 uses out of this product. Interestingly, I am using a deluxe size of the product these days. Its a decent moisturizer once you are able to get past the banana fragrance. 

Another sample size I got to try. Since it lasted me a single use only, I can not talk about the efficacy or performance of this product. 

A great pencil gel liner. 

I did something silly. In order to dye my hair instead of using the emulsion developer, I used the powder one which is used to color cut the hair. I wasted my 40 minutes in this cold weather to dye my hair, only to find out, I used the wrong product. Since I had only consumed half the tube, I will use it next time. 

This is such an under rated product for people with frizzy hair. The shampoo along with the conditioner really helps in toning down the frizz and making them a lot more manageable. This is most likely my third bottle of shampoo. I absolutely love the results of this shampoo when paired with its conditioner. 

I bought this moisturizing lotion as part of a set. I do like its mild lavender fragrance. Lavender is always very soothing. However the lotion is really very thick in consistency which makes it super hard to quickly absorb into the skin. You really do need a pea sized amount for application but due to its thick texture and greasy nature, it can only be used in Winter seasons. 

Jolen is an age old trusted brand when it comes to depilation and hair lightening. I remember using their skin bleach for the first time when I stepped into college. It was known to be the most gentle bleach available in Pakistani market back then compared to others. 

My go to anti-dandruff shampoo brand is Selsun. This yellow one is amazing coz it perfectly meets my requirements. However it is not always available at stores and has selective availability options. 

I had a love and hate relationship with this product. The powder did not work well for me during the humid season of Summers. Once the Summers got better, so did the performance of this powder. It set my makeup really well. 

This is my favorite product of the year. This loose powder blush is perfection. Its finely milled, is buildable and the shade compliments my skin tone very well. A little goes a long way and the product can easily last you a year or so. Sadly the product has been discontinued since its no longer available on their website. 

These perfumes were launched a couple of years back by The Body Shop and I was amongst the few people who got them at the launch event. The one I received was in the fragrance - Nigritella which is a sweet fusion of musky and floral fragrances. This range I believe has been discontinued by The Body Shop. 

I try to clean the black heads and white heads from my nose at least once a month, if not twice. The easiest and quickest way to do it is by using nose pore strips. Lately I have been feeling that my black heads have gotten stubborn and don't get pulled easily by pore strips either.
