Blush -MAC - Gel Stain in Subtropical
jamiefox 9/30/2003 8:12:00 AM
Fabulous! I love this blush!!! My HG blush! The best cheek stain that I have ever used. Everytime I look in the mirror I love how this blush looks. Pretty, like a natural flush. It stays on ALL day until I wash it off. Never fades All I can say is that MAC should make this a permanent part of their line and not a LE. I called MAC's corporate office and also emailed them to let them know that I think they should make this a permanent part of their makeup line. What will I do when I cannot get this any longer?

Treatments -Redken - All Soft HEAVY CREAM
jamiefox 9/30/2003 7:56:00 AM
Fabulous! HG grail material here! It works wonders for my dry, hi-lighted (with bleach), thick, coarse, curly hair. It untangles my mop beautifully and leaves it like silk ready to be blow dried straight.

I really like the fragrance, but the lasting power is not very good at all. Not worth the price. I won't repurchase.

Fragrances -Child Perfume - Child
jamiefox 9/28/2003 5:18:00 AM
If heaven could be bottled, than this is it! MY HG perfume! I will never be without it. I have bought it since it first came on the market and was bottled in a drugstore type atomizer. I continually get compliments when I wear this. I love that it's an oil. Adds a nice sheen to my forearms, neck and chest. Expensive yes, but a little goes a long way and the staying power is terrific. The woman who makes this oil better never stop.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Pink Poodle Lipglass
jamiefox 9/16/2003 4:12:00 AM
Fabulous! My favorite pink lip gloss. Don't be fooled just by looking at the bright pink in the tube. Simply apply it sheerly ( one thin coat) on the lips and Pink Poodle can be a lovely, subtle shiny pink. (That's how I prefer it) Or apply it thicker if you like it bright. HG material here!

Lip Gloss -Lancome - Colour Dose Lips and Cheeks
jamiefox 9/2/2003 2:53:00 AM
I LOVE this! I have been looking for the perfect red lip stain for years and this is it. You name all the other red stains out there and I have tried them. It is a great creamy gel lip stain that has a wonderful silky feel and delicious smell. The color is called 'Shocking Mai'. A lovely red that is buildable from sheer to semi-opaque depending on how much you apply to lips. This product is nice as it gives you time to blend before it drys. I prefer to use my finger to apply it rather than the slanted tip as too much product may come out if you squeeze too hard while the tip is on your lips. Can also be used nicely on the cheeks.

Fragrances -Stila - Creme Bouquet 
jamiefox 8/1/2003 4:21:00 AM
I actually thought that I liked this fragrance when it was first released. I had only smelled it from the bottle then and put a teeny bit on my wrist. I actually entertained buying it or trying to get it in a swap at some point. Not gonna happen! I do not like this at all now. I sprayed it on too liberally at the Stila counter today and boy was I sorry. This smells inexpensive and old ladyish to me. A sort of powdery, cloying, too sweet vanilla scent that I couldn't wait to shower off!

Lotions/ Creams -Bath and Body Works - Coconut Lime Verbena
jamiefox 7/22/2003 5:36:00 AM
No thanks. I find myself way in the minorty on this one. I went to Bath and Body works after seeing the raves here at MUA and tried the body lotion layered with the splash. Smelled o.k. at first, but dried down to smelling cheap like it is. Might be o.k. if you are a teenager or don't mind smelling like a K-mart special. But, don't take my word for it. I am a fragrance snob.

Lip Gloss -MAC - GHETTO limited edition Australian exclusive lipglass
jamiefox 7/22/2003 5:21:00 AM
'Ghetto', a pretty shade for all of you. I called MAC in Sydney to get this shipped to me here in Los Angeles. I HAD to have it given all the raves it's gotten here at MUA. You know how you must have that unobtainable item?! I was going crazy with all of the Aussie gals raving and my not being able to snag this here in the USA. I thought that it was going to be a more 'egdy' color since it's name is 'Ghetto' and Tsubi is known to be an eccentric designer. It's quite tame, though. It's a very wearable everyday creamy colored rose with a hint of red. I like it more after it's been on my lips for a while and looks more 'YLBB'. I would have given it 5 lippies if I didnt have such a hard time trying to get this and enduring the anticipation waiting for it to arrive. It didn't knock me off my feet when it arrived. Gals in the U.S. take note: Ghetto is very nice, but not 'all that'. Not quite worth all the hype. But, I am still glad to own it. :-)

Fragrances -Comptoir Sud Pacifique - Vanille Banane
jamiefox 7/18/2003 7:15:00 AM
I have come to a conclusion about all of the CSP fragrances that have vanilla in them. They stink! I have tried them all and CSP's vanilla smells cheap. CSP is extremely overpriced as well. Their fragrances often times smell inexpensive and don't last on the skin. I had the CSP Vanilla Banana on my wishlist but I took it off after trying the fragrance again at a nearby shop. I wanted to like it. The idea of banana scent is intriquing to me, but once again CSP's cheap vanilla has to ruin a good thing.

Eye Shadow -Chanel - Shadowlights- Vega
jamiefox 7/18/2003 6:54:00 AM
Holy grail for sure! I swear I am tempted to swap away all of my other eyeshadows after using Chanel Vega Eyeshadow! This is a gorgeous smoky shade that I think would work on everyone. Thanks again to MUA members for their reviews and helping me to find the perfect eye shadow! I use it day and night.

Polishes -Estee Lauder - Pure Color Ridge Filler
jamiefox 7/10/2003 6:13:00 AM
I REALLY like this. I have used it since it was first released. I do like the smoothness that it gives to my nails. It eliminates the ridges nicely. I use it mostly by itself or as a base coat with other polishes. It's a treatment base coat and makes my natural nails stronger. I love the pearly blue iridescense. I would repurchase this.
