Primer/ Corrector -Laura Mercier - Foundation Primer
lucyc 6/30/2003 12:31:00 PM
This is my second LM purchase - my first was the Lip Silk that bought me out in blisters! As a result of the Lip Silk incident, LM sent me lots of products and sent me to see their MUA in London - he recommended this and I love it. It leaves my skin flawless and foundation is applied easily and it stays in place!!! my skins looks fresher. Originally I tried this with with my LM foundation sample but recently I've used it with my regular one and it works just as well!!!!

Eye Shadow -MAC - Pigment in Tan
lucyc 6/13/2003 11:24:00 AM
I've actually got a sample of this and was inspired by MUA Productville to get this! The colour is very fine, very dense and doesn't fall on to the cheeks whilst applying. I've only seen tan so don't know the others but am dying to try more!!!!

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lipglass in Oyster Girl
lucyc 6/13/2003 11:22:00 AM
I love the tube and wand style of these - so easy to apply and store. This colour is a very shimmery and sheer pink. On its own I didn't like it - my teeth looked yellow and it came out a bit white. However, applying with MAC Chai turns it into a glowing neutral colour - it is very versatile!

Eyeliner -MAC - Teddy eye kohl
lucyc 5/19/2003 7:57:00 AM
This is a really easy to use product. The colour is a medium to dark brown with sparkles. I don't think the sparkles show up on my lids but it is a very good colour as it is very natural and enhances my green eyes without making them look overdone

Eye Shadow -Stila - Banana Daquiri Trio
lucyc 5/15/2003 5:55:00 AM
This is such a cool, versatile product. The lightest shade is a champagne colour (think All About Eve), the middle colour is sort of matte (hardly any shimmer) and is a taupe colour and the darkest colour is like the colour a banana skins goes when it is off. Again, it has very little shimmer. I just love this colour set as it is so easy to use and apply and it lasts for ages

Shampoo -ARTec - PureHair by The Pure Shop
lucyc 5/2/2003 8:31:00 AM
I love this range and use the Patchouli Shampoo and the Chamomile conditioner. I also have the Geranium leave in conditioning spray and use it as a blow dry spray. This range is great, lasts ages and it very affordable. The results are instant too and everyone comments about how shiny and manageable my hair seems. I buy this over and over again and even using different water types (I've moved house), it doesn't make a difference

Conditioner -ARTec - PureHair Chamomile Aloe Moisturizing Balm

I love this and come back to it every time - its thick and creamy, it smells great and everyone always comments on my hair when I use it - what more can I ask of a conditioner?!?

Liquid -Christian Dior - Diorskin Fluid
lucyc 4/28/2003 6:58:00 AM
I got a sample of this and was impressed as to how long it stayed in place - the texture is slightly thicker than other 'light coverage' foundations but once blended, its fab. The bottle is great too and I really like the finish. My friend commented on the smell but I don't notice it - will have to smell it properly next time!!!

Lips -Lancome - Sans Tabou
lucyc 4/28/2003 6:55:00 AM
I thought the colour was beautifully shimmery in the tube and was impressed that the colour is as scarily purple - its lovely. I do have to apply it thinly though to avoid looking to washed out. The scent is fabulous too!

Lip Gloss -Lancome - Juicy tubes in Chilled
lucyc 4/28/2003 6:53:00 AM
I was lemming this for ages and so pleased that I got it - its fabulous - for those who thought Sun Bronze was too plummy and too dark, this is probably the best one for you - its tan in the tube but it has gorgeous gold shimmers and looks great. The taste is delicious too!!

Treatments -Estee Lauder - Perfectionist Correcting Serum
lucyc 4/14/2003 12:38:00 PM
Ok, I'm 22 and I don't have wrinkles (yet!) but I don't care - I will try anything thats an improvement on Idealist (which by the way, wasn't that great). Perfectionist makes my skin smooth and its now 5.37pm on a Monday and my make up is still in place - this stuff is fab. And this is only the second day I've tried it. You can't see how much is left in the bottle and that bugs me but its a small price to pay for my new wonder product (for now anyway!)

Palettes -NARS - Skin Deep Palette
lucyc 4/3/2003 4:49:00 AM
I give this a yes on buying again but I don't think I really would because of the cost. £52 is far too much for a palette - yes it is less than the cost of the individual products but i still think its too much. Now onto the products - the lipsticks are smooth and sheer. There are three colours, the bigger one (can't remember the names) is my favourite but the others are browns and just too flat - they are real nude colours. The blushes are nice, flattering and can suit any skintone - they last for ages as well. The eyeshadows are long-lasting, All About Eve makes a good base and I use Blondie as a no-e/s look. A good palette to have for every day colours and looks

Lip Gloss -Lancome - Lancome Juicy Tubes - Cerise

I love the flavour but the colour is too red and not subtle enough for me.

Lip Gloss -Lancome - Juicy Tubes - Framboise
lucyc 3/31/2003 5:11:00 AM
I love juicy tubes and have 6 of them now. However, the flavour of this one is very sickly and it barely shows up on my lips. I will continue buying JTs but not this flavour
