Blush -Bloom - Rosie Sheer Colour Cream
Marils 1/7/2004 11:35:00 AM
Very nice cream blush. Lovely, natural colour for my skin tone. Gives the skin a natural glow/flush. It's easy to apply - I just use my fingers to dab the creamy texture. Smells great too.

Eyeliner -Rimmel - Exaggerate Full Colour Eye Definer (all colours)
Marils 1/7/2004 11:25:00 AM
Have this in Sable but will definitely other colours. Smooth application, retractable and great sharpener at the end. Staying power - does not last too well, but for the price, it is a very good purchase.

Lotions/ Creams -The Body Shop - Mango Body Butter
Marils 1/7/2004 11:17:00 AM
I love the smell of this. Very delicious. The smell lasts for hours, it's still there in the morning if I put in on at night. Very moisturising and thick. Would use only at night and generally in the colder months when skin is more dry. Slightly greasy and doesn't absorb too well.

Misc Beauty Tools -Shiseido - Eyelash Curler
Marils 1/7/2004 11:08:00 AM
Eyelash curler that does a VERY good, natural curl. Good size and shape. However, the curler feels a tad loose and I find that the curl doesn't last very long.

Very nice eyelash curler. Gives a nice, natural curl. Sturdy, firm, doesn't pinch and I find that the curl lasts forever with the right mascara. However, it is a tad big/chunky for my small eyes. But still a fabulous tool!

Scrubs -Clinique - 7 Day Scrub Cream
Marils 1/7/2004 10:58:00 AM
It's a so-so scrub. No adverse affects, but doubtful of any positive ones either. The grains aren't too coarse, so it's not harsh on the skin. It left me with a funny after feeling/layer on my skin though (a not clean feeling).

Mascara -Clinique - Naturally Glossy Mascara
Marils 1/7/2004 10:50:00 AM
The first mascara I have used that looks as though you don't really have anything on. Nice, non-clumpy and very natural. Staying power is pretty good too. No idea about the glossiness bit though.

Mascara -Max Factor - More lashes multiplying mascara
Marils 10/29/2003 12:29:00 AM
I like this mascara a lot, probably one of the best I've used so far. It thickens a bit without being clumpy and yucky. Stays rather well too. Worth the money IMO and would repurchase. But I'm sure there are better ones out there since there are so many mascaras to choose from.

Lip Gloss -Bloom - Lip Gloss in Melon
Marils 10/29/2003 12:23:00 AM
Looks a bit eewy in the tube/bottle but it's a rather nice peachy colour that comes out nude on me. Nice smell, nice taste, long lasting and not overly sticky. Probably wouldn't buy this colour again but would definitely try other Bloom lip gloss colours.

Eyeliner -L'Oreal - Line Intensifique
Marils 9/29/2003 5:38:00 AM
Have liquid in Black Mica and Earthern Rock. This was too runny. Kept going everywhere. Don't particularly like the weird tip for application either. Uneven application, flaky and didn't last very long.

Mascara -Max Factor - 2000 Calorie Mascara
Marils 9/1/2003 3:02:00 AM
Got this one in Rich Black Noir. It did make my lashes slightly more dramatic and thicker. However, it also made them stick together, clumpy and really stiff. Was going to give it a 2 rating but the curled wand made it a 1 - it did nothing and was more of a hindrance than an aid to better looking lashes.

Mascara -L'Oreal - Lash Architect Mascara [DISCONTINUED]
Marils 9/1/2003 2:54:00 AM
I bought this in black. Don't care for it much. It was clumpy straight away, even after tissue-ing the excess off and made my lashes stick together. It does kind of leave the lashes still soft after use, not all hard and stiff like some others. I think it has alright staying power as well, as I find it extremely hard to get off my skin if there are any mishaps ie I have to try to scratch it off my eye if it ever wanders during application! Would never repurchase.

Lip Gloss -Lancome - Juicy Tubes in Miracle
Marils 8/18/2003 5:30:00 AM
A clear pink in the tube but goes on nearly clear. Super shiny/glossy and has a great smell - a bit like some sort of tea. It is much less glittery/shimmery than the Lychee one. As with the other JTs it's a tad sticky and sticks to nearly everything!!

Lip Gloss -Clinique - glosswear for lips
Marils 8/12/2003 1:09:00 AM
Have this in sunshine. It is a great apricot/peachy colour. Creates nice, natural, glossy lips. There wasn't any strong scent maybe a bit plastic-smelling. A little sticky but then most glosses are...however, I would say it's less sticky than many others out there. Might go and try out some of the other colours if these still exist.

Lip Gloss -Hard Candy - Super shine lip gloss
Marils 8/9/2003 5:26:00 AM
I have pop and pixie. They both smell and taste fab, like caramel!! Provide a pretty sheer gloss/shine with maybe just a hint of colour. The staying power is also good, which would explain why it's a tad sticky, but not overly so - nothing you can't handle.
