Eye Shadow -Cover Girl - EyeSlicks Gel Eye Color [DISCONTINUED]
rated 3 of 5
Miss_J 10/6/2003 12:25:00 AM

I like this stuff alot. Its pretty cheap and I have it in Pewter and my all time Holy Grail of eyeliner... Cats eye, a pretty olive color with tiny gold flecks in it. It really makes my brown eyes pop. I kinda wish it were in a fatter crayon form, ie: L'Oreal Eye Smokers ( which has a sim8ilar color that I love also) and i guess it could glide on a little smoother. A fair warning: this stuff can really irritate my eyes if I get it in them.

Lip Gloss -Revlon - Sheer Lipglide - Sheerly Bronze

This stuff is pretty sheer. Have to go over my naturally red lips many times before I see a change in color. This stuff is alright, but I would rather have the Moisturous Lipstick in Glistening Nude.

A really versatile nude, and I love it. It moisturizes alot too. I carry it everywhere with me because its good for any occasion. Not too obvious at all, just a pretty shimmering nude.

Lip Gloss -Maybelline - Wet Shine Diamonds Liquid in Pink Diamonds

I bought this on a whim and I wore it later that night, all of my friends kept complimenting me on how pretty and glossy my lips looked. This color is good for me because I have alot of pigment in my lips and it really tones down the red in them. And if your worried about it looking too "Barbie" don't, unless you plan to layer it on thick.

Lip Gloss -Neutrogena - Moisture Shine Gloss in Whisper
rated 4 of 5
Miss_J 10/6/2003 12:07:00 AM

I was won over by the consistency of this gloss...no stickiness and just what the package promises, moisture and shine. I was very much surprised by how moisturizing this lip gloss was. The color is a good color for my light skin tone, but it looks cheesy if you layer it on too thick.

Lip Gloss -L'Oreal - Glam Shine -Prima Donna
rated 3 of 5

Usually I am drawn away from glittery lip colors because I have fuller lips, but I bought this out of jealousy and I like it when I go out to clubs, but in opinion, it may be too glittery to wear as your everyday kind of lip color.

Lip Gloss -L'Oreal - Colour Juice -Caramel Creme
rated 3 of 5
Miss_J 10/5/2003 11:59:00 PM

Love the color of this. And it smells so good! The only thing I don't like is the somewhat sticky consistency of it. Colour Juice is one of the best lipglosses I have tried, they are comparable to Juicy Tubes. This shade seems like it would be flattering on almost anyone. Just don't put too much on or your lips will stick together!

Lip Gloss -Cover Girl - LipSlicks in Cutie
rated 5 of 5
Miss_J 10/5/2003 11:54:00 PM

This stuff is awesome. It is pretty neutral with a little shimmer and looks good on any occasion. It also doesn't make a spectacle of my fuller lips like alot of shimmery lip colors do.

This blush is soooo good for my light, olive toned complexion. It stays on all day and goes on silky smooth. I love this stuff.

Skincare - Face -Pro Activ - 3-Step System
rated 4 of 5
Miss_J 10/2/2003 1:47:00 PM

I really started to breakout, as I usually do in hte summer, and I was sick of it! I decided to try the Proactiv Solution and it really does work well to get rid of blemishes. I had to throw in a really good oil free moisturizer, though, because the Proactiv actually dried areas of my skin, and I have super oily skin, so this was kinda weird for me. If you choose to use the Proactiv system, I would suggest starting out using it once a day and then gradually adding it into your routine or else it might be overly drying at first. I use MB Control Moisturizer over the Repairing Lotion to balance the drying effects. It is a good system though. You gotta stick to it.

I love this mask soooo much. I have been using it for a few months, and it really helps my skin when it breaks out. Its really cheap too, so I can always afford it.

Skincare - Face -Mario Badescu - Control Moisturizer for Oily Skin
rated 5 of 5
Miss_J 9/24/2003 9:42:00 PM

I LOVE this stuff! I have been using the Proactiv skin care kit and even though I have oily skin, it has made my face dry and flaky in some areas. I started to use this moisturizer all over my face (except chin and T-zone, like the directions say) and I have silky smooth, pretty, glowing skin now! I think this is the best moisturizer for oily skin, especially if you break out. It has soothing botanicals in it and the consistency is great. A little bit goes a long way. I would buy this again... I think Mario Badescu products are awesome :)

Highlighters -Neutrogena - Sheer Shimmers
rated 3 of 5
Miss_J 9/24/2003 9:26:00 PM

I bought this because it was on sale for 3.99 with a coupon- thank god! Because I would never spend 8-9 dollars on it. It makes a pretty shimmer, but I would never use it on my lips- its way too gunky with lipgloss, too shiny, and too dry to use on lips. I would buy again, especially if it were cheaper, and I would buy it in a different shade, because the pink one I got makes me look too "barbie" and i favor nude and taupe shades better anyways. Plus it really doesn't show up pink on my medium/fair skin.

Blush -BeneFit Cosmetics - Dandelion
rated 4 of 5
Miss_J 9/23/2003 4:42:00 PM

I felt kinda weird about spending twenty six dollars on a fairly small box, but then realized that this would probably last me awhile :) I think that it looks great on my skin though. I can lightly ( I mean lightly) dust it all over my face for a pretty, natural glow, and I can layer it for a blush or eyeshadow effect. Dandelion really simplifies my makeup bag too... perfect!

Lip Gloss -Sally Hansen - Eye and Lip Gloss
rated 4 of 5

At first I had my doubt, but my friend tried this and told me how great it was. I got it in Nude and its shimmery, but looks absolutely gorgeous on my eyes! It adds a nice glow without me looking overly made up. And the consistency is good, it glides on smooth and doesnt crease... Perfect! It looks good on lips if you dont put on too much.
