Eye Shadow -Make Up For Ever - #152 Light Pink
CaliBello 7/31/2009 1:27:00 PM
This shadow didn't work for me. I liked the pearly light pink color but it showed up on me almost white. It's very powdery and doesn't last. 90% of the pan fell out after about 2 weeks of use.

Lip Treatments -Revlon - Beyond Natural Liptint SPF 15 ] [DISCONTINUED]
CaliBello 7/31/2009 1:20:00 PM
I have this in every color. I like the small tube (although not crazy about the copper color) and think the flat head is perfect because that's how most of my lippies end up. This stuff moisturizes and gives good color. I use it by itself, under and over other products. My only issue is none of the colors are a perfect match for me. I use Nude the most to tone down other bright lipsticks.

Lotions/ Creams -Bodycology - Lotion/Cream in Cherry Blossom
CaliBello 7/31/2009 1:08:00 PM
The bad economy sent me searching for a cheaper alternative to pricey scented products and perfume. I found Bodycology at Walmart. This is a great brand with a bunch of fabulous Body Mists and Lotions and Creams all for $4. I'm loving Cherry Blossom and get lots of compliments on this sweet cherry scent but will try other scents too. There is a 12oz lotion in a bottle and 8oz cream in a tube. They are both $4 so obviously the lotion is the better buy. Although, I do find the cream to be more moisturizing and the tube is more convenient.

Sometimes the spray clogs or the tube separates but otherwise these really do the job on a budget!

Lotions/ Creams -Hawaiian Tropic - Coconut After Sun Body Butter
CaliBello 5/20/2009 5:52:00 PM
I was looking for a new body lotion and thought this would be great. I love coconut and body butter and tubs. Unfortunately, the smell doesn't last and the moisture is just meh. I'll probably pour something better in the tub.

Mascara -Cover Girl - Lash Blast Luxe
CaliBello 5/20/2009 5:49:00 PM
I tried the Luxe in Black Platinum. Didn't notice a difference from the regular formula but prefer the pink tube. Lash Blast is a very good mascara. It separated and lengthened my lashes very well with no flaking. I prefer my Maybelline Full 'N Soft though. I tried the LB on one eye and FNS on the other and then switched eyes the next day. There was a noticeable difference. Both times I noticed the FNS eye was better for me. It was fuller, darker and created that sexy fringe.

Lip Liners -Lancome - Le Lipstique Fraîchelle
CaliBello 5/20/2009 5:43:00 PM
I checked out Le Lipstique Lipliners and Fraichelle was the only wearable color for me. It's a little darker than I like but I use a light touch and really like this. It glides on very smooth. It's creamy but stays put and lasts. I love how you can wear it on it's own or with lipstick or gloss or lipbalm etc. UPDATE: Found a better color match in a product of equal quality (MUFE AquaLiner).

Treatments (Eye) -Kiehls - Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado
CaliBello 5/20/2009 5:36:00 PM
I wanted this cream for the longest time but am disappointed. It just really didn't do much at all. It's not creamy and doesn't migrate which is a huge plus but it didn't seem to provide enough moisture to give fine lines a little help. I'm sure there is better out there so I will not re-purchase.

Lotions/ Creams -Suave - Skin Therapy Exhale Juicy Tangerine 
CaliBello 3/24/2009 5:29:00 PM
My first Suave product ever and probably my last. This felt watered down and did not moisturize at all. And my skin is not even dry! Also, I could barely smell any tangerine.

Top/Base Coats -Seche Vite - Dry Fast Top Coat
CaliBello 3/24/2009 5:19:00 PM
I had a Sally's coupon and saw all the raves on the nail board so I picked this up and am pleased. It dries polish very quickly and adds shine. I don't think it contributes to chipping or shrinkage.

Lipstick -MAC - Cremesheen Creme Cup
CaliBello 3/24/2009 5:17:00 PM
This was not the color I wanted it to be (I thought it would be better than Angel). On me, it made my lips looks dry and thin. I was very disappointed.

Lipstick -MAC - Crosswires Cremesheen
CaliBello 3/24/2009 5:14:00 PM
I never reach for this type of color but there was something so beautiful about it, I couldn't put it down. It is very bright and in the end I didn't have the guts to wear it often enough to justify buying the tube. It was drying on me as all MACs are-they just don't work for me.

Lipstick -Bobbi Brown - Creamy Lip Color - Crystal Pink
CaliBello 3/24/2009 5:10:00 PM
I have tan skin with somewhat pigmented lips. This is a matte soft pink/nude on me. Baby is similar with more brown and Uber Pink is nice too with more shine. Thick formula but don't let the "creamy" fool you, this doesn't slip off your lips. It goes on smooth and stays well. Formula is a bit drying on me, color balls up a bit but otherwise one of my favorite lipsticks.

Mascara -L'Oreal - Voluminous in Carbon Black
CaliBello 3/24/2009 5:02:00 PM
This is my favorite of all the Voluminous formulas although I don't find it to be such an intense black. It is however the best at creating long, dramatic lashes. Really truly holds a curl! Unfortunately, like all L'Oreal mascaras it flakes on me. I like it so much, I may try it with a primer. Hopefully that will work, I really want to keep using it!

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Simply Basic Vanilla Sugar Body Mist
CaliBello 3/24/2009 4:50:00 PM
I picked this up- 2oz for $1.77 and it's great! I carry it with me and spritz whenever I want. It smells great and feels refreshing. Update: I prefer the Bodycology mist for $2.00.
