Eye Shadow -MAC - C-Shock - Wondergrass
EmbalmerBabe 6/16/2007 9:21:00 PM
This color is gorgeous! It's such a bright kelly green. A bright,bold St.Patrick's Day green. It has tiny silver micro sparkles. You have to pack it on to get it to show up decent. The color payoff and pigmentation are so so....I was expected it to be way better. The color is unique though. Better than Big T and Bang on Blue in the color pay off and pigmentation department....but still lacking.

Eye Shadow -MAC - C-shock - Big T
EmbalmerBabe 6/16/2007 9:18:00 PM
This is gorgeous in the pot, a lovely dark shimmery teal. Once swatched it hardly shows up, its dusty,chalky, has poor color payoff and pigmentation is lousy. The quality is pretty bad.,I was disappointed.....=/

Lip Gloss -MAC - Plushglass - Angel Cream
EmbalmerBabe 3/30/2007 9:11:00 PM
This is one of the new Plushglasses and is LE. This should have been in the Barbie collection! This is such a "Barbie" shade! There is NO shimmer or sparkle from what I can see. It's a mod, light pink that goes on very true to how it looks in the tube. It's a milky light pink that coats the lips nicely. At first I thought it looked like Underage but they are actually quite different.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Plushglass - Hot Stuff
EmbalmerBabe 3/30/2007 9:08:00 PM
I marked I won't buy again because this shade is LE,along with AngelCream and Bingo!, Oh-Oh!. When I saw these new plushglasses I pretty much liked them all. I choose Hot Stuff because it was LE. It's an ultra pretty sheer plummy,pinky,berry with a ton of micro sparkles twinkling in blue,purple,pinks,fuschias. Very hot shade. Would look great with a smokey eye and a red dress!

Lipstick -MAC - Frost - Festivity
EmbalmerBabe 3/28/2007 3:13:00 PM
Got this back2mac. This is the perfect summer lipstick. Pair it with Silly Girl and you will have smoking hot summer lips. It's a pale pinky coral that has a nice shimmer to it. It does'nt look overpowering. I love this shade, I also like Up Note from the Balloonacy collection. I think those two are the stunners from Balloonacy.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Silly Girl
EmbalmerBabe 3/27/2007 5:15:00 PM
As the previous reviewer stated its an orange dreamsicle color.I would say it is more on the orangey side than peachy as described on the site. It is quite shimmery and all most looked like a Lustreglass in the tube to me. It has a lot of micro sparkles. PURRRFECT Summer gloss.

Eyeliner -Urban Decay - 24-7 Liner in Gunmetal
EmbalmerBabe 3/14/2007 4:06:00 PM
Swatched on the hand this color is beautiful(a shimmery industrial grey) I did not buy it or 1999 I just got Bourbon and Dime which are great. I passed on Gunmetal+1999 because the reviews were not as great as I expected. Also I do not need Gunmetal because I have MAC LITHOGRAPH fluidline which is pretty much the same thing except no micro sparkles.

Mascara -Bourjois - Yes to Volume No to Clumps
EmbalmerBabe 3/14/2007 3:45:00 PM
Just got this for 15.00 at Ulta.I like that it is sealed in shrink wrap so you know it is sterile. This is now in my top 3 favorite mascaras, along with Lancome Hypnose,and Benefit Bad Gal. Gives the lashes a nice lush glossy look. Does not crumble all over and flake off..gahh. The brush is unique and just requires a little patience and practice until you get the hang of it. Applies nicely, and the packaging is very adorable and you seem to get a lot for your $. I will repurchase. :)

Lip Gloss -DuWop - Lip Venom 2nd Sin
EmbalmerBabe 3/12/2007 4:57:00 PM
I like this better than regular Lip Venom. I think it cost about 5.00 more. It does not sting my lips as much has a thicker texture and really does make your lips look plump. Regular venom has a slick thin texture which feels like oil on my lips. I like this better.The scent and taste are good too.

Eyeliner -Urban Decay - 24-7 Glide on eyeliner in bourbon
EmbalmerBabe 3/6/2007 6:46:00 PM
24/7's are my favorite eyeliners.I just got Bourbon at Ulta today and it is the epitomy of hotness. It's a rich Hershey's chocolate brown with mini micro sparkles of gold and silver. I love this and my Mac Graphic Brown Fluid Line. The top two chocolate liners IMO. I passed on Gunmetal and 1999 until I can see the testers. Dime and Bouron are awesome though out of the new 24/7's I have tried. Thumbs up UD!

Fragrances -Victoria's Secret - Beauty Rush body double mist - Grapefruit Blast
EmbalmerBabe 2/19/2007 9:07:00 PM
UPDATE: I love this scent but the lasting power is WEAK,WEAK,WEAK! I generously sprayed all over and the scent disappeared within an hour.:( Yes!This stuff smells so freakin' GOOOOOOD. It's a bright,clean, crisp,energetic grapefruit with a touch of sweetness and tartness. Comes in a big chunky clear plastic bottle with Beauty Rush written across the front in bold silver metallic lettering,just like the Beauty Rush lipglosses.There are two layers to it,one is an oil layer and the other a clear layer. One is for moisture the other for the fragrance I believe,it is sort of like a dry oil spray,perfect for after your bath or shower.

Blush -MAC - Don't Be Shy from Barbie 2007
EmbalmerBabe 2/16/2007 12:44:00 AM
This is the perfect little girl, dolly cheeked,airy,angelic,innocent look. Slight on the shimmer and blends in wonderfully with Mac's Kabuki (forgot the #). As another reviewer stated this looks like Bazooka gum!! This is my new favorite pink besides Dollymix. BTW Dollymix looks awesome with the other Barbie eyeshadows+lipsticks/lipglasses too.

Bath Treatments -Bath and Body Works - Red Hot Love Story 3 in 1
EmbalmerBabe 2/16/2007 12:24:00 AM
Ditto EVERYTHING the previous reviewer said! I thought Twisted Peppermint was my HG Temptations too now this is right next to it! This stuff rocks! I got two bottles on sale for 8.00 each,they are LE for Valentine'd Day. It's the perfect Red Hots cinnamon hearts candy fragrance with a touch of sugary-ness so it's not too spicy. This goes great with my Urban Decay Red Hot body powder. So original and cute!

Lip Gloss -MAC - Barbie-Fashion Pack
EmbalmerBabe 2/15/2007 2:08:00 PM
This is such a pretty pale peach-nude shimmer.It is quite sheer on my lips. I am going to top this over Style it Up,I think they will pair quite well. It does not remind me too much of Prrr,which is more pink and frosty. Prrr is also less sheer.The Barbie collection ROCKS.
