Foundations -Revlon - Custom Creations Foundation [DISCONTINUED]
rated 4 of 5

I bought this because UT actually has winters and summers unlike Miami. I am starting to tan now and my colorstay is annoying because I tan all the time and I have to keep updating. I forgot I bought this and tried it this Sat and I found it matches a lot to my skin tone if I put it at the 5. I'm using the L/M. I am officially going to use it tomorrow and I don't think it will be dissapointing. The coverage is medium but you cna build on it. I'm liking so far more than colorstay because it weights less. I had moderate acne now I have very few breakouts. I'm also oily prone but I use oil blotters so at the end of the day my makeup usually comes off. I think this will be a good foundation for me.

Powder -MAC - Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Light Medium [DISCONTINUED]
rated 4 of 5
Christmaself55 7/4/2008 2:04:00 PM

I like this powder a lot. It doesn't create a too shiny feel, which is important because I am oil, but it makes a nice lil glow. Not to glowly. I can't stand glowly. If I don't put my liquid foundation on frist evenly I don't have to worry because this powder makes my whole face an een color. It's great. I am starting to get more tanned and so I will go for a medium color but this is a must buy. Check out my blog and yummymakeup.blogspot.com :P

Best and blackest eyeliner ever! I would not buy another eyeliner. I actaully recommend this eyeliner and when Wal mart sells the double pack I stock up. Totally love it and it's so black! It doesn't really run on my face either even though my face is an oil slick.. Check out my blog and yummymakeup.blogspot.com :P

Crème -Revlon - New Complexion One-Step Compact Makeup
rated 3 of 5
Christmaself55 7/4/2008 1:48:00 PM

This is okay. I do like the creme to powder idea but the colors don't really match. I use this really for a bronzer type deal since I thought I got a good color but it came out too dark. I put it on my cheeks and nose and forehead and it looks okay. I take medication for my acne but it doesn't cause breakouts. I think this color is a little too orange for me. I think maybe the other colors are better. It also smells kind of weird but nothing too bad. Check out my blog and yummymakeup.blogspot.com :P

Liquid -Revlon - ColorStay Makeup
rated 4 of 5
Christmaself55 7/4/2008 1:46:00 PM

I like this foundation but after a while it gets cakey. I'm taking medication and it's like my skin got used to it so I have to switch up my foundations all the time. When I switch back it works fine. I'm having a problem locatinga good color because my face doesn't really tan but the rest of my body does. I am usually a NW30 and I'm using nude 200 in revlon but I need something tanner. I use bronzder as well but not dark enough.

This conditioner is really good for being like a buck! I totally buy them and have them in reserve if I run out of conditioner you know. I like how soft m hair from conditioning with it. I also love the scent of this particular conditioner and I would recommend.

Liquid -Almay - Clear Complexion Blemish Healing Makeup
rated 2 of 5
Christmaself55 4/13/2008 9:44:00 PM

This foundation actually do anything for me. It didn't enough coverage for me and it didn't do anything to help me with my blemished even though it contains sylic acid. I like the colour but really nothing else. I thought it was helping me out with my skin problems but it didn't nothing. I guess I would use again if I had to but not really.

Lips -Unlisted Brand - Aquafina Hydrating Lip Oil
rated 4 of 5
Christmaself55 4/13/2008 9:40:00 PM

I liked these. If you don't use them they start to smell. I am now using Carmex but I would use these again. I liked the taste of the blue one. I would eat it kind of lo. I know it's not good for you. Oh well. Lol I liked these a lot but my lips were still kind of dry after I used it. I think I would use these more just for the nice shine, not too glossy but still glossy.

Lotions/ Creams -Eucerin - Dry Skin Therapy Calming Creme
rated 4 of 5
Christmaself55 4/12/2008 3:28:00 PM

This is really one of the top moisturizers that I have ever used. It's not oily and it helps out my dry skin instantly. I'm from Miami and now I live in Utah and there is definetly not any humidity here. I have this calming creme in my bag all the time. Not to mention I burned my hand and it helped a lot. I also got burned by waxing and it helped as well. My dermatologist recommends this and thats how I heard of it. Try it if you have burns or dry hands.

Christmaself55 4/12/2008 3:25:00 PM

I like this trio because the colours compliment each other very well. I have about two of them and they are very nice. I don't use them all the time since I have a billion eyeshadows. I would definetly recommend because the colours are very blendable and good colour choices.

Eye Shadow -Everyday Minerals - In the Garden
rated 4 of 5
Christmaself55 4/12/2008 3:20:00 PM

I love this eyeshadow. It's very true to colour and you can make it darker to your pleasing. I want to say that everyday minerals surprises me with how many products I like of theirs. I also like that the eyeshadow comes out a little bit because the foundation jars keeping spewing out too much powder. AH! Mess. I would definetely try it because it's such a pretty colour.

Eye Shadow -Milani - Wild Violets Quad
rated 4 of 5
Christmaself55 4/12/2008 3:17:00 PM

I use this product all the time. I use the darker purple to make a smokey eye look with purple. I really like the very bright purple inte quad too. I want to say that Milani is very comparable to Mac, well I mean drugstore to high end makeup. I think that they should put Milani in more stores!

Eye Shadow -Milani - Quad in Denim Blues
rated 4 of 5
Christmaself55 4/12/2008 3:14:00 PM

I like this quad a lot. I use the darker blue on the bottom right a lot and it lasts all day. I use it with my smudge brush and I have to say my blue smokey eye looks good. I like the nuetral blue next to the dark blue for my lid. I want to say that this is very vibrant and long lasting eye shawdow for the price. I think maybe they should change the silver but that's just me you know. I would buy this again if I ran out.

Hair -Jerome Russell - Punky Color
rated 5 of 5
Christmaself55 4/12/2008 3:11:00 PM

Well I finally bought this about raving reviews. I absolutely love it. The colour is very bright and very noticable. I have normally black hair and I make the bottom of my hair red which is where I put this. I don't think this poduct is very messy at all. My b/f put it on my hair with no problem and only stained his hands a little. I can see if you do you whole head, but if you're going to do that I would suggest getting someone to help you because that can get messy. It didn't stain the bathroom either. I love the price and it smells good. I didn't like the colour was a little too pink for me but I can always buy a daker shade of red and then you know do it again. I would definetely recommend this to any one who wants crazy colour hair.

Eye Shadow -Revlon - Colorstay 12-Hour Eyeshadow -General
rated 4 of 5
Christmaself55 3/30/2008 4:52:00 PM

I love all the color stay eyeshadows. I havre many colors but I can't remember what they are and I really want to get them all. I would have to say that the colours are really true to the packaging. Also they last a good while on me with out creasing. I think this is the best drugstore brand eyeshadow quads that I have used. I usually get them at walmart like two for one or something or get an eyeshadow quad and get a free eyeliner. Those are normally the best deals. I should check today to see if they have some deals. WOOT. I totally recommend any of these colours, I think I liked sandstorm the best even though it broke. :(
