Blush -MAC - Style
lauralikes 12/26/2010 8:38:00 PM
One of MAC's best blushes. it's a frost so it's pigmented and soft. once applied it gives a subtle sheen and shimmer (frost blush quality), which makes it look so natural and glowy once on the cheeks. im nc25 olive toned and this color is PERFECT for me. im sure its suitable for most people to be honest.

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - The Black Palette
lauralikes 12/25/2010 2:48:00 PM
this palette is far, far, far from a must have. black dog is a matte black and, hell, it isnt even that great of a matte black. barracuda is good, a gunmetal, shimmery color. jet is pretty in the pan but once applied it looks like a gross, matte, muddy purple. sabbath is decent. cobra is cool. the gold reflex does pop. i was suprised, i thought i wouldnt be able to notice is. libertine sucks. it's black...not close to green. it comes with a mini eden potion and a mini zero eyeliner. 2 products that are good, too bad they're mini. the packaging is whatever. closes magnetically which i always find irritating.

Lipstick -Wet 'n' Wild - Mega Matte 903C Just Peachy
lauralikes 11/13/2010 9:30:00 PM
OMFG. i am so, so, so, so, so impressed with a) formula. b)color. c)pigmentation. wet n wild...i see you're really trying hard lately. a)creamy. opaque and thick enough to not let your lip color show. long lasting. b) peachy-nude. very similar to MAC's peachstock (my freaking FAVE nude ever) jsut a bit peachier. still... very, very similar. c) Again, SUPER opaque. it's pure pale peachiness. I got this for $3 dollars. I'll be buying MANY more of these... new staple.

Eye Shadow -NARS - Cordura Duo
lauralikes 11/4/2010 8:51:00 AM
This is absolutely amazing. I was scared the lighter shade was going to pull very warm and red but it didn't happen on my NC25 skin. Its more tan than bronze. The pigmentation in this color is great, and the texture is extra smooth and buttery. Now the dark shade (my fave) is the star of the duo IME. I absolutely love off-black eyeshadows and this is one. A brown-black with sparkles. When packed on (esp over a dark base) the sparkles show up, and when blended out, they don't appear. Its fine by me..the sparkles weren't really interesting to me. What appealed to me was how pigmented these shades are and how well they cimpliment each other making the SEXIEST kim k smokey eye ever.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Honesty Eyeshadow
lauralikes 9/4/2010 6:47:00 PM
Like most MAC lustres, Honesty sucks. horrible pigmentation, lots of fallout. If it had a better formula it would be a great color. i used my brush wet, and it made absolutely NO difference. i dont even know how that's possible.

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Woodstock
lauralikes 7/24/2010 7:20:00 PM
This eyeshadow is part of the sephora exclusive 5 shadows. Gorgeous shimmery pinky-red (fuchsia). Blends like a good Urban Decay eyeshadow should. over UDPP it looks amazing, over udpp+matte pink eyeshadow it looks INCREDIBLE. so anyway you use it...it's gonna look good. Haha. worth the money. no cons.

Eye Shadow -Make Up For Ever - Neon Pink 75
lauralikes 7/24/2010 7:07:00 PM
MATTE. SUPER PIGMENTED. blendable. bright. $19 dollars. easy to depot. once depotted, no need for magnet. You can use this as a blush (a very funky one), or as an eyeshadow, how I prefer. I once owned Magent Madness (neon, PRO pigment from MAC) and it was absolutely horrible. I lost hope and thought i'd never encounter a bright, matte, neon color... well MUFE of course proved me wrong. I dont understand why it took me so long to get this, but I am so glad I have it now. how you can use bright pink eyeshadow suggestions: with purple. with yellow and/or orange. with blue. with lime green.

Lipstick -MAC - Call My Bluff
lauralikes 7/13/2010 7:55:00 PM
i like this lipstick because it's exactly the same to mac's permanent l/s in FRESH BREW. EXACTLY. even the so called "cream sheen" formula is not exactly a creamy one, but more like a Lustre (just like FRESH BREW). Dont get this if you have Fresh Brew. DO get this if you dont have fresh brew and you're looking for a lipstick to tone down the red in your lips without making your lips "nude" looking.

Eye Shadow -Wet 'n' Wild - Color Icon Palette - Greed [DISCONTINUED]
lauralikes 6/26/2010 9:52:00 AM
Great idea since the color combinations would have been super nice all together but the quality of these eyeshadows were disappointing. the three mattes were nice, very pigments and blendable (the black had fallout but oh well, i'll live). now the shimmery grey and shimmery peach (which was one of the main reasons why I got the palette) S.U.C.K.E.D. no pigmentation even after I packed, and packed and packed! UGH NO pigmentation, nada. the shimmery black was nice, but had tons of fallout as well. Again, i'll live with fallout as long as there's pigment. I'll give this 3 lippies because the mattes were pretty impressive, while the shimmer shadows were not impressive at all.
