Lip Gloss -Estee Lauder - Pure Color Crystal Lipgloss with Liquid Prisms - Psychedelic 314
martini2000 1/21/2004 3:05:00 AM
sorry, worst lipgloss I ever tried. It was thin, didn't stay in place, had an aweful smell and thus went straight back to the store. Don't buy it!

Beautiful rose colored lipstick. One of my alltime favorites. It really suits a PPP complexion and brightens up your face.

Lip Gloss -Chanel - Twinkle Glossimer
martini2000 1/16/2004 3:57:00 AM
Not bad. THe quality and opaqueness of this glossimer is great. It lasts for hours. The color in the wand is misleading however. It looks a nice pink in the tube, but comes out very golden on the lips. I find that I can't used it alone, but on top o a lipstick it's definately a great find

Lip Gloss -Chanel - Force Glossimer
martini2000 1/16/2004 3:53:00 AM
What a beautiful shade. For at least one year, I didn't dare to even try out this color, because it looks so dark in teh tube, but then I read your raving reviews for this color, and I'm glad I finally tried it. Right after applying it for the first time, I bought it...beautiful berry shade that suits my PPP complexion. Paired with only mascara this is still a sophiticated find!

Blush -Clarins - multi-blush
martini2000 1/16/2004 3:50:00 AM
Oh, I love this stuff! I don't wear blush too often, but whenever I do, I use cream blush. Up til now, I've always relied on Clinique's Blushwear, because of the stout packaging and the little mirror, but I wasn't too happy with the colors. So I decided to give Clarins a try, because I also love their skincare products. Wow, the blush is great. I also chose 01-Lychee. It looks as if I flushed naturally. It also gives that glow another reviewer talked about. The only little complaint I have is the case it comes in. The plastic is rather thin, and I know it will break in no time...

Lip Gloss -Christian Dior - Addict Lip Gloss- A Lick of Taffy-151
martini2000 12/31/2003 7:04:00 AM
I'm very sorry to say, but I thought that this is a really bad gloss. It's very thin and thus doesn't stay put at all. The second complain I have is the color. It looks a beautiful metallic pink in te tube, but turns silver on the lips. very unattractive.

Lip Gloss -Estee Lauder - Pure Color Gloss- Ginger Fizz
martini2000 12/14/2003 1:44:00 PM
While the packaging si really adorable, the color isn't. It looks like a beige nude gloss in the wand, almsot similar to Chanel's pin-up glossimer, but goes on clear on the lips. I was disappointed and exchanged it for a glossimer...

Treatments (Eye) -Chanel - Precision Age Delay Eye [DISCONTINUED]
martini2000 12/14/2003 1:42:00 PM
This is really my favorite eye cream. A gel-cream formula, which really lasts a long time and has an instant soothing effect on the skin around the eyes. It dries quickly, so there are never problems with applying any eye make up afterwards. Really good, especially when the skin is reddened due to sensitivity!

Moisturizers -Biotherm - Hydra Detox Daily Moisturizing Lotion
martini2000 12/14/2003 1:32:00 PM
Wow, another great product from Biotherm. All of my skincare products suddenly seem to come from this company. This is a great and very light moisturizer, which is oilfree. Unfortunately it doesn'th ave SPF, but apart from that, it feels great on the skin, and I haven't experienced any reactions to it. The only thing I don't particularly like about this is the strange smell it comes with - somewhat sterile and clinic-like.

Lip Gloss -Chanel - Blizzard Glossimer
martini2000 12/14/2003 1:28:00 PM
Blizzard is one of my fave glossimers. Together with Praline. I just couldn't live without those. Blizzard is a hard to describe color. something of a shimmery rose-bronze. I guess it suits almost everyone, especially paired with smocky eyes!

Eyeliner -Chanel - LE CRAYON KHOL
martini2000 12/14/2003 1:26:00 PM
My alltime favorite eyeliner. It lasts the whole day, and doesn't give me racoon eyes. The pencil is soft, and it's easy to draw a thing straight line with it

Cleansers -Biotherm - Acnopur Cleanser
martini2000 12/14/2003 1:24:00 PM
I don't have acnerpone skin or something, so I can't really tell, whether this cleanser reduces the amount of breakouts, but I love it. My skin is really smooth and it feels fresh and clean. Even though my skin is on the drier side, I can use this without problem, because it's a really creamy, and not gel-like formula. It hasn't agravated any redness in my senstitive skin, and has no overpowering scent. The only minor drawback might be that it stings, when it gets into your eyes!

Mascara -Chanel - extreme cils waterproof mascara [DISCONTINUED]
martini2000 11/30/2003 2:42:00 PM
My new fave. I have the non-waterproof version, though. Before I tried this Chanel mascara, I was a faithful believer in Lancome's definicil mascara, a staple of mine for almost 10 years. This has all the good things of definicils, but gives a bit more volume. It never smears, an can be easily removed with any remover. I have it for about 8 weeks now, and shows no signs of drying up. Great stuff, as everything by Chanel

Lip Gloss -Lancome - Juicy tubes in Peche
martini2000 11/30/2003 2:36:00 PM
I totally love this. It's my first JT, and I ask myself, why I haven't tried them any sooner. Great shiny gloss, which also feels conditioning. Nice subtle color working great with smockey eyes.
