Makeup Brushes -Essence of Beauty - Kabuki Brush

Why did I wait so long to grab this? This is a really wonderful and soft brush. It gives fantastic coverage on my face. I did have some shedding initially, but that has stopped, I think it was just because it was new. I would suggest picking this up and giving it a shot, it's only 10 dollars. Love it!

shortygal201 3/19/2007 8:41:00 PM
Wow, what a great blush! This is exactly what I was looking for...a very buildable but subtle/natural/nude type blush. I am NC20 and would definitely repurchase.

Blush -NARS - Torrid
shortygal201 3/17/2007 1:39:00 PM
Torrid is a great coral/peach color. This blush seems to wake up my face when I wear it, I absolutely love it. Great pigmentation and staying power...I would repurchase this in a heartbeat.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Subtle Pigment
shortygal201 12/12/2006 8:21:00 AM
This is my first pigment purchase and I think I picked a good one. This is a really gorgeous taupey silver w/some plum color as others have described. I don't think I will ever run out of this, but it's a great enough color for a repurchase. I like that it's kind of neutral, but yet can be a little smokey too.

Blush -Tarte - Cheek Stain in Tipsy
shortygal201 12/12/2006 8:17:00 AM
I had been wanting this for a while and finally bought it. Tipsy shows up on me as a very pretty peachy-pink flush. I think the name Tipsy is somewhat fitting, it gives that just flushed glow. It smells delicious too, I love this! I apply with my fingers and blend it in, I don't find it too difficult to apply. If I ever ran out, I would repurchase.

Eye Shadow -Wet 'n' Wild - Mega Eyes Trio - Sapphires
shortygal201 11/29/2006 9:21:00 PM
Wow! I LOVE this trio so much. I was in a CVS that I don't normally go to and happened to see one of these left in the display. The pigmentation is very good with these and the colors are great. The darkest blue/sapphire shade makes a beautiful liner, then there is a slatey/smokey blue shade which is very pretty, and a lighter blue shade which is pretty. They all work well together and look great! If you can find one of these, grab it!!

Blush -Flirt - Peek-a-Blush Sheer Powder Cheek Color in Caramel Belle
shortygal201 11/18/2006 11:54:00 PM
Wow, I am very impressed with this blush. It is very pigmented, so I needed to use a light hand. I found the staying power to be good, and it gives a very pretty rosy/bronze flush. I would buy this again. I plan to purchase some other shades too, great product at a decent price.

Eye Shadow -Flirt - Black Ivy
shortygal201 11/18/2006 11:51:00 PM
This is a really great eyeshadow. It has great pigmentation. Even though it is named Black Ivy, on me I find it to be more of a slate/gray blue shade. This makes for a nice smokey eye. I am impressed with the quality of this. I would repurchase.

Blush -Laura Geller - Blush n Brighten Pink Grapefruit
shortygal201 10/18/2006 6:47:00 PM
I had been lemming this for a while and finally bought it. It is exactly what I wanted it to be, a beautiful glowy pink flush. It has some soft shimmer, but nothing over the top in my opinion....just gives that "glow". I would buy this again if I run out, and definitely want to look into the other colors! Love this!

Lipstick -L'Oreal - Color Riche Star Secret Aishwarya Beige
shortygal201 10/6/2006 8:22:00 PM
After a long and hard search for this, I finally found a tube. This is a MLBB shade, it is simple but so pretty. On me, it shows up as a light mauve/nude shade. It gives a nice touch of color and does not wash me out, love this! EDIT: I am not reaching for this as much as when I first bought it. I think the problem is that it's too close to my natural lip color, so it doesn't really stand out enough to make a huge difference.

Styling Products -Pantene - Pantene Restoratives Frizz Control Anti-Humidity Hairspray [DISCONTINUED]
shortygal201 9/4/2006 2:54:00 AM
I picked this up on a whim when I was shopping. This smells so great and does a pretty good job of keeping my hair from getting frizzy and poofy. My hair also feels a little softer after I use it too, which I found surprising. Good product. EDIT: I've noticed my frizz is not as under control as I originally thought with this. It's still a decent hairspray, but doesn't always keep frizzies away.

Loose Powders -Tarte - Glistening Powder in Sugar Daddy
shortygal201 8/6/2006 12:44:00 AM
I got a mini version of this with a kit from QVC. I wasn't sure how I was going to use this. I decided to try it as an eyeshadow and it's beautiful. I paired this with some chocolate colored shadow that I put in the crease and as a liner. Simple but pretty look. It has enough sparkle to stand out, but not too much. I have not used it on my body, but love this for an eyeshadow.

Lipstick -Tarte - 24.7 Lip Sheer in Friday
shortygal201 8/6/2006 12:38:00 AM
I got a mini version of this in a kit from QVC this week. At first glance I thought this may be too dark for me. I was completely wrong, this is a really pretty color. It comes in the chapstick type container, and applies smoothly. It gives my lips a nice berry stain, darker or lighter depending on how much I put on. It has a little bit of shine, not glossy but not matte either. Love this!
