Mascara -Maybelline - Volum' Express The Colossal
rated 5 of 5

This mascara I picked up a few weeks ago and I have to say that it has become my new favorite. gave thickness, length and a nice black finish without making the lashes overly stiff and seperates them nicely.. easy to remove, but stays put during the day... Over all a really good product for the price.... the wand is similiar to te Diorshow or Badgal lash... definately recommended...

Mascara -BeneFit Cosmetics - BADgal Lash
rated 3 of 5

At first I loved this mascara, gave thickness, length and volume. I have to say that the wand is one of the best ones I had on a mascara. Unfortunately after not more than 5 weeks it started to flake horribly and got thicker and thicker... Would probably still use it, but for the Eur 22 it costs here 5 weeks is just not enough, at leat for me... Will not buy again..

Blush -BeneFit Cosmetics - Dandelion

My favorite blush, gives a softish glow to the cheeks, without being to much. easy to apply... lasts a long time on the skin and with 10g or 0.35oz. you get a good amount of product, for the price, which is slightly higher (in Europe) but its totally worth it... would definately buy again...

Top/Base Coats -Seche Vite - Dry Fast Top Coat
rated 5 of 5

Totally impressed by the seche vite. I am always a bit skeptical when theres so much hype about a product but it definately works. The nails dry super fast, they are really shiny and it makes my natural nails feel a bit thicker and more resitant to shocks. I haven't noticed any exaggerated chipping. The only thing thats bothering me is, that I always have to order from the us since this is not available in Europe as far as I know. I will definately buy it again.

Mascara -Max Factor - False lash effect

Suprisingly awesome Mascara... I always thought that Mascaras from Drugstores were not as good as High End Brand ones... I used to use the PlushLash by MAC but I find this one even better plus its a lot cheaper... Definately recommend it...

One my favorite pale polishes ever. The perfect everyday work appropriate color. gives the nails a clean look with a subtle flash of gold. Goes on without streaks. I have already got the third bottle since this came out with the gardenparty collection in 07. Will definately buy it again!

Tinted Moisturizer -Clinique - Moisture Sheer Tint [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5
Paulchen 7/14/2009 3:50:00 PM

Got this because the city block was out, and I actually like this even more. It adds just a hint of color to correct the skintone without looking like you have got foundation on. I apply it with a duo fiber brush, like the MAC 187 and I barely need much for my face. It has a Sunscreen of 15, which is essential I think to protect your skin and it does not clogg pores or made my break out. Will definately buy it again.

Polishes -OPI - Lincoln Park After Dark
rated 5 of 5
Paulchen 7/14/2009 3:30:00 PM

One of my favorite nail lacquers!! amazing coverage, classic, still a bit edgy but not as hard as a black polish... My manicurist talked my in to this color when it came out with the Deliciously Dark Collection. I used to wear sheers or nudes only until I had a mani with this and now I already got the second bottle and will definately buy it again if its empty...

Total waste of money... drinks up remover... from which you need an awful lot and keeps it. They almost stick to the nail when the get dry... will not use or buy them ever again...

Ideal for on the go... spillproof, doesn't leak, easy to use. I actually like the gel consistency better than the non-travel-oil.. would definately recommend it.

Mascara -Clinique - Lash Power
rated 3 of 5
Paulchen 7/8/2009 1:58:00 PM

I tried the Lash Power because I was a big fan of the High Impact one but looked for something more waterproof. It really is... hard to remove... So I only use it when from time to time, when I really need something absolutely waterproof. Good Mascara, unfortunately not on a daily basis... wouldn't buy it again

Treatments -Creative Nail Design - Solar Manicure One Minute Manicure
rated 2 of 5
Paulchen 7/8/2009 1:50:00 PM

I really wanted to like this, because I love the smell of the original SolarOil BUT after I used it few times it quickly started so smell sort of rancid. I also dries your hands and doesn't work without a handcream afterwards. Would not buy it again.

Didn't do much for me. My lashes were clumpy. After a few hours I looked like I had dark circles under the eyes. Wouldn't buy it again.
