Eye Primer -Fyrinnae - Pixie Epoxy

By far one of the best purchases I've made. This product is amazing! Makes my pigments look fabulous. I just put a dab on each lid and blend it out. I pat on the colors and it makes them look foiled. I use it with my MAC mineralize shadows and all my loose pigments. It's seriously amazing. I don't have to wet my brushes anymore and applies much better than if I had. If you're on the fence, I say buy it!

OMG! I LOVE IT! My favorite brush to date! I used to live by the 239, and then the 242. Well, I just swapped for this and its PERFECT. Makes applying shadows quick and easy. Picks up the perfect amount of color. BUY IT!

Highlighters -MAC - Marine Life [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5

The colors are pretty. I have to be careful not to apply to much because it is extremely pigmented. I'm glad the gold is only an overspray bc it looked awful on my skin. You get two colors and alot of product so the price doesnt bother me. Overall, a nice produt

Liquid -Neutrogena - Healthy Skin Liquid Makeup SPF 20 (2009 formulation)
rated 3 of 5

OMG, I LOVE THIS. I had been using NARS Sheer glow but as an NC40, found Barcelona a tad to light and Syracuse was to orange. I loved the finish but as I tanned, I just couldn't use it anymore. So I saw the reviews for this and saw people compared it to NARS. I ran out and purchased the darkest shade (tan). It's perfect! It provides perfect coverage and lasts all day. A perfect example, I moved yesterday in blistering heat. I was sweating all day and I still had a perfect face at the end of the night! Def recommend. Only gripe....no pump. Shouldn't cosmetics companies know better by now? EDIT: Ok, so i loved this stuff.. loved it. but by the time i got halfway thru the bottle, it started to suck. My skin was like an oil spill and hr after applying it. Even with a blot pwder and primer. It would slide right off. I LOVED the finish but had to give it up. I ended up w/ estee lauder double wear light. much better =)

Liquid -Revlon - PhotoReady Makeup
rated 2 of 5
minni4bebe 5/19/2010 3:42:00 PM

I purchased this out of curiousity. My sister loved it so I gave it a shot. I'm nc40 and both medium beige and golden beige were too light. The next color was to dark. I tried applying golden beige and it accentuated the dry spots on my face. I didn't like the application. The pump was nice and the shimmery finish was good but overall, not a good product for me : /

Clothes -Unlisted Brand - Old Navy Flip-Flops

I live in these in the summer. They are cheap and have tons of colors. Yes, you have to buy a new pair each summer but at 2 for $5, it wont break the bank.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Gazette Grey
rated 5 of 5
minni4bebe 5/2/2010 10:49:00 AM

I wasn't sure that I would like this shadow bc when I swatched it, the color was sort of sheer. I decided to give it a go yesterday and it's gorgeous!! I just used painterly and UDPP as a base bc I didn't want a dramatic effect during the day. I applied Gazette Grey all over my lid with showstopper lighter in the outer V. I then used solar white as a highlight and tear duct color. It looked great! The sparkles showed up well and I received many compliments. I would def. buy again if it weren't LE.

Eyeliner -MAC - Pearlglide Intense Eye Liner in Undercurrent
rated 5 of 5
minni4bebe 4/5/2010 7:29:00 PM

This, like all pearlglides, is so smooth and intense. The color is a beautiful darker teal with gold sparkle. I've had it on for about 8 hours and it hasn't smudged at all. I am in love with it! I suggest getting one asap. I just wish MAC would make pearlglides perm already.

Styling Products -Carol's Daughter - Hair Milk

I have the curliest hair ever. Super curls. I got this as a deluxe sample of this from Sephora. At first, I loved it. It kept my hair tame, no frizz or poof. The smell was alright. Kinda off but it faded. I used it every other day for a few weeks and then that was when I figured out why this stuff has a 50% rating. I got the WORST dandruff ever. I mean depressing dandruff. My hair would flake at every turn. It was awful! I am still dealing with it. It has decreased a lot since the disaster of this crap. I will NEVER use this again.

Polishes -MAC - Light Affair
rated 5 of 5
minni4bebe 12/23/2009 6:56:00 PM

I just got this polish today and I am loving it! It seems to have a cream finish. No shimmer or anything. The color is like a grayish beige. Looks great on my tan skin. Cant say much for lasting power yet but the color is def. a winner. Applies well with minimal streaking. I would def. recommend.

Love it! It makes ur lips look luscious with this alone. I also love it over Brave new bronze. If you missed out on its relaunch, it will be back out in May I think.

I tried this out about a year ago. It was my first "nude" and I thought it looked good. Until everyone told me I looked dead. For reference I am nc40. Back it went. I might try it again with a gloss but only at the store. I doubt I will buy again =/

Misc Beauty Tools -Shu Uemura - Eyelash Curler
rated 5 of 5
minni4bebe 12/8/2009 10:48:00 PM

I LOVE this thing! I started curling my lashes 3 years ago. I tried a few other curlers but they were always to big for me. I bought one of these at sephora and I never regretted it! It gives me a long lasting, beautiful curl. I actually feel like I am missing something if I don't use it. My mascara goes on better as well! I think the price is ok. I actually thought it was more expensive before I bought it. It sucks you only get one replacement but I have been using the same pad for two years and it works the same as day one! Def HG!
