Review: Almay Moisturizing Eye Makeup Pads

Having a good eye makeup remover is just as important as owning a great black mascara. Some eye makeup removers sting your eyes. Others leave traces of makeup behind. In the eye makeup remover world, there is plenty of room for improvement.

Almay Eye Makeup Remover Pads, $7.00, are pretty much perfect. The cute little screw-top container makes it easy to travel with them, and most importantly, they do exactly what they are meant to do. Sweep one pad over a closed eye and your waterproof mascara, winged purple liner, or whatever else you wore will be gone. They are also very moisturizing, which is incredibly important. Keeping the eye area moisturized, as well as protected from the sun, helps fight off wrinkles.

There's no need to rinse afterwards, but dabbing the area with a tissue will get rid of the oily effect.

Hard Candy Perfume Review

Today I'm reviewing Hard Candy perfume, only around $25 for a 50ml bottle. Type: Floral Fruity Gourmand.

Typically, (this is not a rule, just a preference,) I like to wear sweet, comforting perfumes in the winter, such as Midnight Fantasy or Pink Sugar, and fruity, summery fragrances in the summer. In autumn I prefer to wear something spicy, and spring... well, thats where it gets difficult. I hate 98% of the floral perfumes on the market- they all seem to either smell like cleaner, or make me smell like I have bathed in a sea of rose petals. Hard Candy perfume, however, is one floral fragrance I can handle.

Hard Candy perfume is a great spring fragrance. It has a great fresh scent that isn't too overpowering. It is not as long-lasting as my other perfumes, however, so I find myself having to reapply it throughout the day.
