Brows -Make Up For Ever - Make Up For Ever Eyebrow Pencil

So far the ONLY pencil that gave me a true match color... The only one WITHOUT red undertones, looks totally natural! Would buy again and again.

Lotions/ Creams -L'Occitane - Almond - AMANDE Concentre De Lait Milk Concentrate Body Cream - Almond Line
miriamb 10/20/2009 9:22:00 AM
I LOVE the scent! It does moisturise really well and leave the skin SILKY smooth. But watever, they should stop advertise ''firming'', what is a firming cream exactly anyway, I've spend SO MUCH money on ''firming'' creams that didn't make ANY true difference that I am wondering... my conclusion is that they are there out to bring out our guilt of not been perfect which lead us to spend$$ in order to make us feel a bit better since we believe that we are actually doing something for (I mean against) it. But at the end, they are like placebo, they don't do much for the firming...! I will keep hiting the gym, eat well and stop spending my money on firming creams! As for this cream, I will buy again (not for the firming though... but the scent and effect!) but in the meantime, I am using it sparingly so it will last me a long time!!

Skincare - Face -Lise Watier - Solution Express
miriamb 10/19/2009 4:44:00 PM
Can't live without this. I used this everyday. Everytime after I clean my face (there is ALWAYS residues below my eyes, doesnt matter the face cleanser). I use it to perfect my makeup, sweeping the fallouts and defining my brows after applying and brushing the powder... and for any touch up. It is very gentle to my skin, smell good and very effective, what else do you want!?

Eyes -Lise Watier - Makeup Base for Eyes and Lips
miriamb 10/19/2009 4:36:00 PM
I used to buy this, until I discovered what a REAL base is (Too face & UD) and the HUGE difference it makes comparing to this one. This doesn't really do anything. Waste of money.

Lip Treatments -Lise Watier - Spa Fondant
miriamb 10/19/2009 4:33:00 PM
I keep buying this over and over. I love it. It soften my lips and gives a nice little boosting effect to the lips (it does plump a little)! A lot of people thinks that I am -mistakely- using an highlighter pen on my lips when I put it on!! LOL

This smells nice, works and not too expensive. However I am looking for something that will moisturise even more.

Brows -Christian Dior - Powder brow pencil
miriamb 10/19/2009 4:04:00 PM
Bought that 3 days ago and I am not sure about the color (brunette) that I've got... I believe it is too red... I don't understand why they will put ANY red undertones in an eyebrow pencil for Brunette. The blond is too pale and the black is way too dark... leaving me with the brown with redish undertone that makes the look not as natural as I would like it to be. And for the price... I am wondering if I should go back to the store and exchange it for the blonde one. Beside that the texture is awesome and the pencil is huge, will last a long time.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Vex
miriamb 10/19/2009 3:55:00 PM
This is a nice color. It is one of my first MAC shadows. It is very polyvalent and gives a nice "frosty" finish.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Sweet Lust
miriamb 10/19/2009 3:46:00 PM
This is a nice soft color, very pale, shimmery pink. That said... it is too neutral, barely noticeable. I use it as a highlight and that's about all I can do with it.

Eyeliner -Stila - Smudge Pot in Black
miriamb 10/15/2009 11:53:00 AM
I just LOVE this. Very easy to apply (with the proper brush), blend easily and stay put. You can use this for smoky eyes if you blend it with another -clean- brush after you apply it as a liner. Or use it simply as a liner over a neutral shadow simple but yet super slick. A must.

Pressed Powders -MAC - Select Sheer Pressed Powder
miriamb 10/15/2009 11:33:00 AM
This is just the best, would not buy any other foundation anymore. Skin looks PERFECT, flawless, blend perfectly, last all day, light coverage just enough to even out your skin color. Works as a primer for blush/bronzer. Mac has the best color selection, you'll sure find yours! (mine : NC40)

Mascara -BeneFit Cosmetics - BADgal Blue
miriamb 10/15/2009 11:20:00 AM
I like this mascara on top of my regular black mascara and I love it on my bottom lashes! Gives a pretty result! However, I got this as a sample. I would never wear that without my black mascara under and I don't think that I will ever spend money over for a second mascara when mine is good enough worn alone!

Eye Shadow -MAC - Pigment in Melon

LOVE this pigment. Will probably be the one and only pigment that I will ever finish! The color is just BEAUTIFUL and I believe it is not dopable. A MAC must!!

This is ok, but doesn't gives my lashes the best effect. Does smell great though! However, I won't buy again.

Lip Treatments -Unlisted Brand - Rubbing Alcohol
miriamb 10/14/2009 3:08:00 PM
Best treatment for cold sore. Beats all the -expensive- abreva and other useless treatments on effectiveness, price and proximity (who doesn’t have rubbing alcohol at home?!). Portability is not the best but you'll certainly find a way to carry it on after you'll test the magic! Apply with a tampon or a Q-tips when the first signs of tingling appears and until the signs disappears COMPLETELY OR constantly apply -to kill it as fast as possible- if it is after that it shows up. (Beware that if you keep the tampon on your lips for too long at a time -I mean if you sleep over night with an alcohol soaked tampon holding on your lips -like I do-- it will definitely dries up your lips badly. However, I sure prefer dry lips and no cold sore. Your choice!) (After this harsh and very effective treatment, use something like Blistex Medicated lip ointment to moisturise and heal your lips the fastest)
