Reviews and info on girly stuff I’ve been buying lately. Get your mind out of the gutter … not THAT kind of girly stuff.
Dr Lewinn’s Skin Perfect primer & foundation
A couple of foil sample sachets of this product arrived with my May Goodiebox subscription, and because there was so little else’s in the box to review I thought I had better give this stuff a try. The primer delivered on…
Ecostore shampoo and conditioner
