Lips -Perfumeria Gal - Apple Fragranced Balm
Ms_Ma 12/1/2005 9:45:00 PM
I really like the art nouveau tin it's so cute. However the lipbalm isn't really that great. It's a little thin and i find it doesn't moisturize my lips as much as i would like. It disappears quickly. Cute but i wouldn't repurchase.

Lipstick -Sephora - Glitter Lipstick

I got this in 10 - the clear with silver glitter. Very moisturizing and glitter is so fine it doesn't feel gritty. Very pretty. I'm going to get more!

Treatments -Juice Beauty - Blemish Clearing Serum
Ms_Ma 11/14/2005 9:51:00 PM
I got this as a sample from sephora and have been using it for a week at night over my entire face. I was quite shocked that it didn't sting and i didn't get rash or anything. I didn't have any pimples to begin with but it does say it evens skin tone - after a week i can't see any difference. The fact that it is brown and runny isn't very appealing but it does smell good although i agree it does leave your skin a little sticky. It really didn't do anything for me, good or bad.

Lip Gloss -LORAC - Lip Polish in Luv
Ms_Ma 10/22/2005 6:44:00 AM
Like many people off the bat i didn't like this one. But then i figured out how to apply it - put a little dot on your lips and spread with finger - then it looks quite pretty. I got this in the Sephora mixed pinks set so i don't think it was too expensive in the set but at individual retail i probably wouldn not have bought this. I think the applicator is weird - the nail polish like brush doesn't help a smooth application. Overall crappy packaging and messy application but okay product. ho-hum nothing special.

Masks -Astara - Green Flame Papaya Nutrient Mask
Ms_Ma 10/16/2005 7:50:00 AM
I got this as a sample from sephora and i was significantly impressed to bother writing a review. It smells heavenly and it doesn't sting which really really impressed me. I usually get some irritation around the sensitive areas of my nose but after washing it off my skin looked calm, clear and smooth. Planning on purchasing.

Bronzers -The Body Shop - Twist and Bronze
Ms_Ma 9/21/2005 12:59:00 PM
Given this as a gift. I'm surprised at how much i like it. Initially i thought it was a bit gimmicky but it's really nice. I'm a NC30/35. I appreciate this bronzer because it doesn't have shimmer particles in it and has the right amount of pink so that it blends nicely into my skin tone. I'm very please with the shade. While i like the packaging because it is handy for travel i took one point off because the brush looks difficult to clean it may turn out to be rather unhygienic.

Palettes -Pop Beauty - Naturally Popette
Ms_Ma 9/8/2005 5:20:00 AM
I received this as a gift and i'm very happy with it. The colours are blendable and natural on my NC30 skin. Very convenient to tote around for touch ups. The colours are idiot proof and great if you don't like the heavily made up look. However the blush does not turn out on my skin in anycase i use it as a highlighter over liquid blush.

Cleansers -Burt's Bees - Lemon Poppy Seed Facial Cleanser
Ms_Ma 8/14/2005 1:23:00 PM
Got this in the pack as a gift. I really like the packaging as it's cute but this product feels terrible. I washed my face according to the directions and it left this thick greasy feeling on my skin which made me scared it would clog pores and make me break out. however i do like the smell of this product. But i would not purchase this.

Lip Treatments -Burt's Bees - Beeswax Lip Balm
Ms_Ma 8/14/2005 1:15:00 PM
Luckily i got this lipbalm as a present because it would have been a waste of money if i bought it. It sucked so bad. At first i liked the fresh mintiness but it's so drying. Also it's a pain to put on my lips don't even feel moisturized when i apply it. I never had a problem with peeling lips but after 2 weeks of using this i noticed my lips were starting to peel. i think the peppermint oil can be too harsh for some people. terrible.

Mascara -Maybelline - Lash Discovery Mascara
Ms_Ma 8/13/2005 1:50:00 AM
Really good for getting the small lashes on the inner corners of the eye and i find no need to wipe the wand before applying. It goes on smooth and no clumps and it's easy to build length. Also it doesn't sting my eyes. For the price it's worth it. I really like the small brush. Will repurchase again.

Rubbish. A waste of time and money. Got #217 a dark navy blue which didn't go on dark navy blue and applied on clumpy. Just $4 but i still feel cheated.

Lip Gloss -Baby Pink - Lipgloss in Pink (opaque tube)
Ms_Ma 8/22/2004 4:37:00 AM
I just received this as a gift. While I like the staying power of the gloss and the small travel friendly size i do realize that it turns pinker in the cracks and lines in my lips and so requires lots of mirror checks. The colour also bleeds a little, while not extremely obvious, is annoying.

Eyeliner -MAC - Glitter Eye liner ("sparkalize")
Ms_Ma 7/24/2004 1:04:00 AM
I really like it because it's so versatile it goes over anything and even looks great on it's own. It says for ages and ages even in humid tropical weather or steamy clubbing sessions.

Eyeliner -MAC - Glitter Liner- Oxidate
Ms_Ma 6/23/2004 2:24:00 AM
I was quite shocked at how long it stayed on. Living in a hot humid climate i had expectations of this disappearing by midday but it was still smudge free. I will definately be getting more colours if they come to singapore. I've been looking for a good glitter eyeliner for quite long and this is a pretty good product. It is perfect apart from the fact that several layers are required.
