Lip Gloss -Rimmel - Vinyl Max
christinarose 9/16/2012 11:27:00 PM
I bought this product in a few different colours. A beautiful red,mauve, nude, and a shimmery bright pink. Absolutely IN LOVE. The price is great, and the colour pay-off is amazing. I was so surprised when the red actually was red on my lips, and the pink made my lips nice and bright! The nude is definitely the best nude lipgloss I probably have ever tried. It is just nude enough and lets just the right amount of your natural lip colour shine through, so it doesn't wash you out. The mauve is gorgeous and natural looking. They arent sticky, nor do they have a weird smell. Minus one lippie because they don't last too long on the lips! But I would definitely repurchase! Oh and btw, I dont mind the bulky brush!

My most favourite coral blush! And for $3, you cant beat it! I love how it has little flecks of shimmery gold in it and it goes on perfectly. I love the packaging, too. Just love everything about it!

Moisturizers -Yes To Carrots - Yes To Tomatoes Daily Balancing Moisturizer

I bought the acne kit, and this was the moisturizer that came in the three-step system. The price was great, 19.99USD for the set. I love the packaging and how it comes in a pump. Really hygenic and super easy to apply. I LOVE the scent! Can't get enough of it! It goes on super smooth and I noticed my skin is way softer than it used to be. However, after a while I do notice my skin gets oily again. I would definitely repurchase though!

Lip Treatments -Maybelline - Baby Lips lip balm
christinarose 12/14/2011 3:59:00 PM
I bought this in the shade Pink Punch. The SMELL is lovely, however when applied to the lips it gets extremely obnoxious and gives me a headache. It tints the lips a nice hot pink colour which is really nice, but the colour sticks to any dry patches and makes your lips look worse! It is however very nice and slick on the lips and i enjoy the texture of it. The packaging was also very cheap looking AND feeling. I would perhaps get a clear one next time.

Beautiful colour. However, I HATE THE GLITTER! It falls out all over your face. Wouldnt purchase again as long as there is glitter still in it!

Eye Shadow -NYX - Jumbo Eye Shadow Pencil - French Fries
christinarose 11/17/2011 2:47:00 PM
Not my favorite, but I like it. I feel like it looks a little too "muddy" on me. Perhaps it's just not my colour! But it is nice smudged along the lash line!

Love this colour as a brow/inner eye highlight. However, very creasy, even with a primer underneath if worn on the eyelid.

Eyeliner -NYX - Liquid Eye Liner
christinarose 11/17/2011 2:44:00 PM
Not bad.. not great. The only upside is the colour is gorgeous. I have this in the colour "Gold". It looks amazing with hazel eyes with flecks of gold/yellow in them. However it is TOO liquidy, and you have to use many strokes just to get a good opaque look to it. Just feels really cheap IMO. Wouldnt repurchase. Only upside was that it was $2 CAD.

Lip Liners -NYX - Jumbo Lip Pencil - Plush Red 712
christinarose 11/17/2011 2:41:00 PM
Love this lip pencil. 4/5 because it is very drying. It is almost like a stain, however when first applied it is very creamy and has a nice feel on the lips. Once it dries, it gets into every crack on your lips and transfers easily. But i love the colour and it does last a while if you arent drinking or eating! I would repurchase.

Eye Shadow -NYX - Jumbo Eye Shadow Pencil in Bronze
christinarose 11/17/2011 2:37:00 PM
An amaaaazing bronze colour! Perfect as a base under powder eyeshadows, however on it's own it does crease. Which is the only reason i gave 4/5. Other than that, it's gorgeous! Love it.

Absolutely love this foundation. LOVE the packaging and how it is a pump. Makes it very sanitary and easy to use. Very reasonable price at $12 CAD, and I love the finish. Just wish it had a tad bit more coverage! I would definitely repurchase.

Loose Powders -NYX - NYX Loose Powder
christinarose 11/17/2011 2:34:00 PM
Definitely my go-to powder! Bought it at IMATS in Toronto and have been using it for a while now. The smell is lovely, it doesn't smell gross like some other loose powders. It also comes in very nice packaging and a cute puff. I use it to keep the powder from coming loose inside of the cap. Very matte which is great for my oily skin, and has a nice colour to it! Also was very good price at $11 CAD. I would definitely repurchase.

Treatments -Burt's Bees - Herbal Blemish Stick
christinarose 10/16/2011 2:55:00 PM
Im totally on the fence with this product. I used it a few times, then i stopped because i honestly couldnt take the horribly STRONG scent. Now, I have tried using it again and realized how unhygenic this product really is. Pieces of dead skin are floating in the liquid, I'm guessing because of the roller ball. So, I popped the rollerball out, and Im dipping a q-tip in it and using it as a spot treatment that way. It does dry out the pimples, however it doesn't minimize them in anyway. Infact, it burned terribly and made my pimples red and inflamed. No thanks!

Lip Gloss -New York Color - Kiss Gloss
christinarose 10/16/2011 2:49:00 PM
I bought three: Park Ave Punch, Muarry Hill Melon, and B'way Berry. They all smell wonderful, and they aren't sticky at all. Not to mention theyre SO cheap and you do get a good amount of product. Only reason I rated it 4 instead of 5 is because it does not last long at all. However, it is very nice ontop of a lipstick or stain!

Mascara -BeneFit Cosmetics - They're Real
christinarose 9/14/2011 12:51:00 PM
LOVE this mascara. I don't understand that last picture posted, of the clumpy eyelashes. I don't know how this mascara could make someone's eyelashes look that terrible.. anyway.. This mascara made my lashes extremely long and volumous. It also seperated nicely, and was veryyyy black. The only downside is the price - $29 CAD.. ouch. UPATE: Starting to stay from this mascara. It's making my lashes clumped in bundles, and it's also making them crunchy and dry. Boo. Moved my rating down to a 3. Not purchasing again.
