Review: Makeup: The Body Shop Dune Pink Cheek Bloom Blush - Deadly Desires Autumn 2008
After all my excitement seeing the Deadly Desires collection at The Body Shop and picking up 2 products at the airport before my holiday, I seem to have forgotten to review them! Well, to make up for it, I’m reviewing The Body Shop Deadly Desires products back to back - woot! 
First up, the Deadly Desires Cheek Bloom Blush in Dune Pink. This relatively large rectangular blush pan is packaged in sturdy clear lucite plastic and looks impressively like a Shu Uemura Glow On blush.

Review: Skincare: Kao Biore Cleansing Oil
A while ago, I gave my tips on how to use cleansing oils effectively and one of the tips I mentioned was to use the oils straight on dry skin.

When I encountered the Estee Lauder Chocolate Decadence collection for Fall 2008, I was stunned at the uncanny resemblence to Guerlain Ombre Eclat eyeshadow quads. So, I went home and rooted around my collection and realised that I hadn’t reviewed them, so here it is.
If you have seen the new Estee Lauder eyeshadow quads, don’t you think the similarity is uncanny? The same golden square shaped quad with slightly domed shaped cover.
