Lipstick -Prescriptives - Lavish Lipstick
kaisarchabor 1/23/2004 11:51:00 AM
I purchased Lavish in Mystery shade since the colour looked nice ie mauvey-brown on the tube. Unfortunately it didn't turn out on my pigmented lips. My lips looked blue/purplish instead. The Incredible lipsticks are much better IMO. Definitely will not purchase it again.

Moisturizers -Murad - Energizing Pomegranate Moisturizer SPF 15
kaisarchabor 10/28/2003 8:03:00 AM
After reading the reviews, I thought of trying this moisturizer. The first thing that turns me off is the scent, which I find too strong. The texture is light and I like the fact that it has antioxidant plus SPF15 broad spectrum. Update: Now I'm into my 3rd tube and it's definitely the best moisturizer for me, not greasy as I live in humid tropical climate and does not break me out. The packaging has improved as I prefer it without the pump. Thumbs up!

Treatments (Eye) -Dermalogica - Total Eye Care

This eye cream/emulsion did not do much to hydrate my eye area, in fact it still feels dry even with my oily skin. The only thing I like about it is the SPF15 which I would use daytime. Not worth the $$.

Concealers -MAC - Studio Finish Concealer

Great concealer...I was looking for something that will cover up my zits for a formal dinner function and it really works. Now I am using it daily and it doesn't aggravate the skin.

Lip Gloss -Origins - lipgloss

The color I got is Fire Sign, an pinkish-peach neutral color. The color is not bad but I had some allergic reactions on my lips when use directly. Don't think I'll be re-purchasing Origins lip products after this experience.

Treatments -Estee Lauder - Idealist
kaisarchabor 4/19/2003 3:53:00 AM
This treatment product indeed lives up to its name. I use it only at night and the next morning my skin feels and looks better. It also helps to calm irritation or minor spots. Has a nice natural scent.

Moisturizers -Prescriptives - Insulation Moisturizer

What would I do if I had not discover this product. Love the smell, and the fact that it has SPF15 and anti-oxidant vitamins. My skin is oily/dehydrated and I find this moisturiser to be ideal. If only the packaging would come in a pump bottle to prevent spillage and contamination. I will definitely buy it again.

Blush -MAC - Sheertone blush in Tenderling
kaisarchabor 4/19/2003 3:34:00 AM
I am not a blush user as I used to have oily skin and minor breakouts. I thought of giving a try after reading the reviews on MAC blushes. This sheertone blush lives up to its name - very sheer, barely there unless I build it up on my NC30 complexion. It turns up brownish pink, does not really give the glow that I wanted.

Loose Powders -Bobbi Brown - Face Powder
kaisarchabor 12/30/2002 8:29:00 PM
It's the best face powder for me IMO, especially to wear it alone without foundation. It has been my staple since I discovered BB face powder. Soft-sand is natural and yellow-based, has good coverage. Slightly expensive but worth every penny. Only thing is the packaging cover cracks easily.

Powder -T. LeClerc - Powder Compact Foundation
kaisarchabor 12/27/2002 9:01:00 AM
This is the best compact foundation IMO. The shade - Miel- is simply perfect for my medium tanned complexion (NC30). Great texture and coverage yet natural looking and not cakey. I have tried some others like MAC Studio Fix, Lancome, etc but I've never found one that would not clog up my pores and cause acne. With this product I have no problem using it everyday. It's so natural. Also works as a concealer which covers up minor blemishes. Although pricey, I'll definitely re-purchase it.
