Liquid -Vapour Organic Beauty - Atmosphere Soft Focus Foundation
rated 5 of 5

I have finally found the perfect foundation! I am a fair olive and the s120 shade is perfect on me. the 115 shade works very well too, but makes me a tiny bit more pale than the 120. The minerals blend and melt into the skin and almost match my skin so that no one can tell I am wearing any makeup when I wear either the 115 or 120. I love the way this product leaves the skin looking radiant and somehow controls shine all day, yet isn't drying at all. I have FINALLY found the foundation that I have been waiting for! LOVE LOVE this product and look forward to trying more from this line. If you call Vapour they can send samples...they don't advertise this, but I called and they sent me samples and charged $10 for shipping.

Treatments (Eye) -MyChelle - Fabulous Eye Cream
rated 2 of 5
dawnykcnkj 2/7/2009 6:12:00 PM

I used to love this eye cream and Mychchelle's Supreme Polypeptide cream. I have dry sensitive skin and this eye cream INSTANTLY made my eyes look brighter and less lined. It was amazing. Honestly, now the cream does nothing for me. It is a decent moisturizer, nothing special. If I put on two layers, the second one just sits on top of my skin and looks greasy. Why did Mychele reformulate?!!!!!!

Lipstick -Christian Dior - Dior Addict Ultra-Shine Sheer Lipcolor in 142- Shiniest Meringue
rated 5 of 5

Wow! What a beautiful color that really brightens up my face! I thought I could never wear sheer lippies becuase they never show up on my pigmented lips, but this one is a winner. It's a beautiful light pink that looks like a very pale peachy pink in the tube, but when on my mauvey/redish lips, it turns into the perfect light natural pink. This is how I wanted Shiniest coral to work, becuase the color is so beautiful, but shiniest coral didn't show up at all.

Lipstick -Christian Dior - Dior Rouge in Carefree Pink #132
rated 3 of 5

Well, I do love this color. It is the perfect pale nude pink for the smoky eye look on me. I am a bit disappointed that Dior can't get a better texture for this lipstick, especially for the price. This lipstick emphasizes every line in my lips, it's definitely not the smooth voluptuous look that I get when I use my Bobbi Brown Pale Pink l/s (which is a slightly darker shade than carefee pink). I will keep this for the great color, but I hope Dior comes out with a better texture for this lipstick soon :)

Lipstick -Bobbi Brown - lip color in beige
rated 3 of 5
dawnykcnkj 4/6/2006 9:52:00 PM

While I looove the texture Of BB matte lipsticks (they are so moisturizing!!), this color just doesn't do the trick for me. I wish BB would make some other colors b/c so far the only l/s color from her line that works for me is Pale Pink. I love beige lipsticks, but this color has too much yellow in it for my yellow undertoned skin. I read somewhere that this is Brooke Shield's favorite lipstick shade. If this color didn't work out for you, but you like beiges, I reccomend trying Laura Mercier Discretion l/s and Burjois Beige Eternel #44. Both of these beiges work great for me. If you want to try a similar )and slightly more pale) and less expensive color try Loreal Fairest Nude lipstick.

Lip Gloss -Christian Dior - Dior Addict Plastic Gloss- Capricious Pink 002
rated 5 of 5
dawnykcnkj 4/6/2006 9:40:00 PM

I really love this color. The texture is incredible. It makes lips look fuller and voluptuous without looking too made up. The light pink color lights up my face. If you like this gloss, you might like Bobbi Brown's Pale Pink lipstick. The two colors are very similar, but the BB l/s is a creamy matte, and super moisturizing too!

Fragrances -Cynthia Rowley - Cynthia Rowley perfume

This is a beautiful light floral fragrance. I think it smells incredible when I just spritz it once on my wrist and then dab on my other wrist and elbow crooks. It makes for such a light a beautiful fragrance and smells lovely and like fresh floral air. I also like that it is a complex fragrance, I smell something new every time and the bottle is beautiful.

This bottle is incredible, it is so beautiful it deserves a prize in itself, and the fragrance is very unique. It is a light, beachy scent, on me at least. The two elements that I LOVE about this fragrance are the light trace of coconut milk and the fresh smell of ocean water and flowers. Maybe that sounds silly :) This fragrance also has a soft floral smell that smells like fresh ocean air, maybe that's what I think smells like ocean water :)

Self Tanners -Au Courant - Instant SunlessTanning Mousse
rated 5 of 5

This looks 100% natural on me. No one, not even my family can even tell that I have put it on it looks so real. It just adds the perfect amount of color (with 1 application--with two I look pretty tan). My husband always tells me I look really prety whenever I use this. I also use the face gel for my face and it is awesome. I always put moisturizer on my entire face first and let it soak in. This prevents the driest parts of my face from soaking up more tanner.

Lip Gloss -Clinique - Glosswear for lips Cream Shines- Angel Pink
rated 5 of 5
dawnykcnkj 8/28/2005 11:30:00 PM

I love this product. I only wear it when I have a little bit of a tan, without a tan it's too pink for me because I like to downplay my red lips. Anyway, this color is just gorgeous. I always get compliments when I wear it. It just brightens my face without drawing attention to my lips. (NW25 for reference)

although it looked so pretty in the tube, this color was blah on me. However, I love chanel gloss in pin up.

Lipstick -Bobbi Brown - Lip Color - Sandwash Pink #22

dawnykcnkj 8/28/2005 12:15:00 AM

This is too bright for me. I prefer "pale pink" by bobbi Brown to tone down my lips a little bit and still brighten my face while still looking really natural. I have fair skin, yellow undertones, dark hair, blue/green eyes and very pigmented lips.

I just bought this and I really like it. It looks awesome over Bourjois Beige Eternelle lipstick. It is a really good light beige with lots of shimmer and so moisturizing! If you like this you should try LM champagne glace. It is a tad bit brighter and it lasts longer

Eye Shadow -Stila - Puck eye shadow [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5
dawnykcnkj 8/27/2005 1:57:00 AM

this is a grat color for blue green eyes. I bought it b/c Gwynneth Paltrow wore it in some movie. See makeup411.com for details. I use Puck as a wash over my lid and line with black liner and it looks splendid. This is such a natural color but something about it really brings out my eye color. It also has fabulous staying power.

I really love this color. It really makes blue eyes pop when used as a liner on the top lid. This color was used on Rebecca Romijn Stamos on her wedding day as a think liner on the top lash line. My husband always says how pretty blue my eyes look when I wear this.
