Same here! I signed up because of the prizes, but none of my reviews have been posted, so I'm pretty irritated. Also because they have control to post your review or not, I wonder if they actually will post negetive reviews. For honest reviews on products I'm still coming to MUA.

Powder -Bare Escentuals - Bare Minerals ALL
Ms_Ma 9/16/2008 5:43:00 PM
I've been using this for a year and I'm still on the fence about it. On one hand I really like the texture - no make up feel and i love the coverage and how easy it is to apply. The downsides are the limited color range, I have this in Light but it's still too dark for me. It oxidizes easily and my face is orange while my neck is white. It's really disappointing. Oh btw, don't let the make up artistes choose a shade for you, they recommended me medium beige - which is way too dark. I'm definately look for a new mineral make up

Skincare - Body -Jurlique - Lavender Body Oil
Ms_Ma 12/20/2007 11:14:00 AM
This is a brilliant before-bed body moisturizer. It's super moisturizing and sinks in fast. The lavender scent isn't too strong. It leaves my skin soft and smooth.

Lip Liners -Laura Mercier - Chestnut lipliner
Ms_Ma 11/27/2007 1:06:00 PM
Got this as a sample. It's too dark for my NC25 skin. Layered with lipstick it seems more "night" than I'm used to. The texture is too hard for my liking.

Moisturizers -Boscia - Recharging Night Moisture
Ms_Ma 10/16/2007 1:36:00 PM
I got this as a sample at Sephora. Spent the week in SoCal and my usually oily skin got flaky and really dry. This is the only thing that saved it yet didn't break me out.

Highlighters -Sephora - LIGHT TOUCH
Ms_Ma 3/23/2007 1:27:00 AM
Just ran out of this! Going to buy more today! I loved using this. I used the yellow shade for my NC20 skin to counteract the blue shadows under my eyes then i pat a little foundation (clinique superfit in bare) over it. I love the look, very natural looking. Doesn't react with my sensitive skin. I love the handy packaging and it's super cheap. Many others I've tried, MAC, maybelline and benefit were too heavy and looked obvious.

I bought this for my mum. She wore this on several occaisons and realized it was giving her rash. She doesn't have sensitive skin and has never had rash due to a beauty product.

Eyeliner -Prestige - Water-Proof Automatic Liner in Midnight Blue
Ms_Ma 9/11/2006 11:46:00 AM
Ugh. This sucks. Smears all over the place. Looks very unflattering when it smears. Also if you're yellow-toned it turns green.

Blush -Sonia Kashuk - Cheek Sheer - Supersheer Beach Bum 04
Ms_Ma 8/30/2006 8:40:00 AM
Really wanted to like this, but i don't. Although application looks natural and it feels sticky on skin. I live in a tropical country. Also it smells waxy which is a big turn off for me. I also have this in sunsplashed and prefer that color.

Concealers -Neutrogena - Skin Soothing Undereye Corrector
Ms_Ma 8/24/2006 9:14:00 AM
I've been using this for about 2 months now and with everyday use i have about 20% left. I got this in Natural Light but after careful analysis realized that it was too pink for my asian NC 30 skin tone. Also i noticed that the 'cooling' aspect was increasingly irritating my eyes. Which surprised me. I won't be buying this again. I have switched to Sephora's lightening touch in No 2 which is way more yellow and thus i find better for correcting my dark undereye circles.

Mascara -Stila - Major Lash Mascara
Ms_Ma 8/6/2006 1:54:00 PM
I got this as a sample at sephora so it came in a teeny tube with a fat brush. I usually only wear waterproof formulas and its steamy in singapore, but this one didn't streak which was pretty surprising. I've worn it 3 times out without any problems. It separates nicely and darkens but i didn't notice any discernable lengthening or plumping effect. Its seems okay. The only reasons why i wouldn't purchase it is that I've been using Fasio's lengthening formula which is much cheaper and is bad-ass lengthening plus super waterproof.

Blush -MAC - See Thru Cheek Colour-Stain
Ms_Ma 7/27/2006 1:07:00 AM
I got this in Subtle Hint and Awash in Pink, of which i have only tried the former so far. I'm an NC30 and it turns really good. A subtle glow. You can layer for a more intense blush. I switched to this after running low on my sephora aquatints. But conparing this to the aquatints, i think aquatints take the cake based on pigmentation, shade variety and price. Wish sephora would bring them back. *sigh* EDITED: Taking this down from 4 lippies to 1 lippie, after a while I realized this was giving me the WORST ever allergic reaction all over my cheeks! Has made me totally scared of MAC products now

Lipstick -Sephora - Lip Marker - 02 Strawberry/Fraise
Ms_Ma 7/27/2006 1:00:00 AM
I've used this 5 times so far and its worked great on me. Its a cool red. The color does fade a little after a while especially if you've eaten something oily (french fries). I find it really easy to apply. This is not a sheer wash, its a bold stain. I've found its best to put on after lips have been exfoliated with a washcloth and lips are dry without any balm.

Treatments -Neutrogena - Instant Nail Enhancer [DISCONTINUED]
Ms_Ma 7/18/2006 1:55:00 AM
No complaints here. It delivers just want it says on the tube to enhance nails. I can't tell if its strengthen my nails because i've never had a problem with this. I really like how there's no smell and it dries super quick.
