Polishes -China Glaze - Recycle
Utopia22 11/8/2010 9:41:00 AM
LOVE this polish! Perfect for fall/winter. I got a lot of compliments wearing this. It's sexy and sophisticated, not boring and suits everybody. Also great price. I normally only buy OPI because of the quality but this polish has also great quality. Must start using more China Glaze :)

Eye Shadow -MAC - Pigment in Bright Fuchsia

It a very attention grabbing color. I like it! Especially for summer. I don't think it would compliment everybody though.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Pigment in Kitschmas
Utopia22 11/8/2010 9:31:00 AM
This color works great on my eyelids. It's a lavender pinkish color with silvery glitters. The application is not very easy but the results are worth the effort. I can imagine that this color is not for everyone. It probably looks best on cool toned people. It's nice but not my favourite color.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Pigment in Vanilla
Utopia22 11/8/2010 9:24:00 AM
Beautiful pigment! I use it when I go out under my brows, in the corner of my eyes, as a cheekbone highlighter and in the middle of my lips. It has too much shimmer in it to use during daytime.

Hardly gives any color and the classic version is much more moisturizing.

Lip Gloss -The Body Shop - Cranberry Lip Balm
Utopia22 11/8/2010 9:09:00 AM
I was persuaded by the smell of this lip balm but shouldn't have bought this; I'll never finish the can... It's not super moisturizing on my (problematic) lips but it does feels supersoft and smooth. The golden glitters do not show up on the lips, it's more a neutral dark reddish (but sheer) color. A real christmas color :) I prefer my lip products in a stick.

Blush -Jane - Blushing Petal [DISCONTINUED]
Utopia22 11/8/2010 9:05:00 AM
I got this in a swap and am so happy with it! It compliment my fair, cool toned skin very well! It's subtle and very cute, a nice pale matt pink and a great everyday blush. But don't think the lasting power is good... needs a lot of touch ups.Think it will last me forever!

Lotions/ Creams -Nivea - Nivea Creme
Utopia22 11/8/2010 8:58:00 AM
Here in Belgium, this has been a hype for years. Everyone uses it. And it does its job pretty well! I prefer to use it on very dry areas since the formula is really very thick. NEVER on my superoily face! (unless on superdry skin) It's also nice to put in the fridge and use it icecold on wounds, burns or itches. It the best low cost basic moisturizer on our market!

Eyeliner -MAC - Pearlglide Eye Liner in Wolf
Utopia22 11/8/2010 8:42:00 AM
This is my first MAC eyeliner and I love it! It's a bit hard to make a fine line with it, because it 'melts' like butter, especially with the glitter in it, but besides that, amazing eyeliner! The glitter in it is also the reason why I only use it at night. But the color... loving!!! The copper undertones give my light blue eyes some character. The color looks sexy and elegant at the same time. Only don't think it will last long.

Lipstick -NYX - Diamond Sparkle in Sparkling Salmon
Utopia22 11/8/2010 8:37:00 AM
Nice consistency, not drying. Nice color, but not for me. Too glittery and just wrong color. Think this will compliment warm toned people! Like the packaging.

Shampoo -Redken - Hair Cleansing Cream
Utopia22 11/8/2010 8:31:00 AM
Another hair product that is amazing for a lot of girls, but not for me. Guess my hair is just too thin and flat to notice any difference. For me, this was a lot of money for no results. Think I really don't need products like this. Have it up for swap.

Blush -Cover Girl - Instant Cheekbones Blush
Utopia22 11/8/2010 8:24:00 AM
I got this in redefined rose. Thinking it would give me a great 'contoured' face, I'm can't pull this off. After trying several times to make a good look, i gave up. The colors do not compliment my cool toned, very fair skin. I look overdone, clownish. It's too much color and too sparkly for me. Think I have to keep it very simple and basic with blush and use just one color instead of 3. This is just not for me. I'll leave the contouring to professionals... Packaging is crap, worst brush i've ever tried. Quality of product is ok.

Polishes -Eyeko - Petite Polish
Utopia22 11/8/2010 8:11:00 AM
Got this in a swap. While this is for making french nails, I use it as a regular nail polish. Gives my nails a very nice pinkish color. It is opaque enough for a baby rose color and the application is smooth and fast. Was my first Eyeko product and am now curious for more! I love that this brand seems to have great online selling offers!

Polishes -OPI - You Don't Know Jacques!
Utopia22 11/3/2010 6:17:00 PM
This is another great OPI shade. Such a lovely color for fall/winter and I can imagine that it suits almost all skintones. I'm very fair and cool toned and can get away with this. It's my first brown/greyish polish and at first I tought it was a bit of a boring color but it's not! It's very elegant, 'sophisticated'. Reminds me of the fall look from Chanel. It's dark but it's subtle at the same time, the color doesn't scream for attention. It compliments warm clothes:) Quality is OPI worthy; it lasted 3 weeks on me :) (I did do touch ups).

Lip Treatments -The Body Shop - Colourings Lip Scuff
Utopia22 11/1/2010 2:48:00 PM
This product does not do much for me... I know it's supposed to exfoliate, and I rubb it in but it only makes my chapped lips look more chapped. It does not help in curing my troubled lips. I think sugar with oil or honey will do the same for your lips, and much cheaper.
