Fragrances -Demeter - Cappuccino Pick-Me-Up Spray
jesdmill 10/8/2001 10:35:00 AM
This just doesn't smell like cappucino to me at all. I don't know what it does smell like (my boyfriend says stale chocolate after its been in your coat pocket for a month... he's pretty close.)

Fragrances -Demeter - Gingerbread PMU Spray
jesdmill 10/8/2001 10:34:00 AM
Smells just like Gingerbread to me - really, really spicy. I liked it but I don't want to smell like it so I swapped it away :)

Fragrances -Comptoir Sud Pacifique - Vanille Abricot
jesdmill 10/8/2001 8:27:00 AM
This is a nice scent, although I don't wear it as often as Amour de Cacao. I agree with the person who said it smells like fruit loops - but hey, I like fruit loops :) It could be too sweet for some people but I like foody scents.

Fragrances -Comptoir Sud Pacifique - Amour de Cacao

I love this! It smells like bitter chocolate with vanilla to me. It lasts pretty well and gets me lots of compliments - that's good enough for it to be a keeper with me!

Lipstick -Club Monaco Beauty - Sheer Lipstick in Glaze

I love this color! It's a great sheer wine color on me. I don't care for the scent or the packaging though - it gets scratched up too easily!

Eye Shadow -Club Monaco Beauty - Eye Grease

These are really cute eye gloss like products. The main different is - they don't really crease! They stay where they should. They aren't as neat looking as in the container though - I had Pewter and it looked like a really neat silver but went on a sheer gray.

Fragrances -Christian Dior - Hypnotic Poison
jesdmill 10/8/2001 8:13:00 AM
I love this scent! It is strong, but to me more vanilla and less spicy than the original poison. It also has a dry down that is much different from the way it smells in the bottle.

Eye Shadow -Christian Dior - 5 Colour Eyeshadows
jesdmill 10/8/2001 8:12:00 AM
Christian dior's shadows are very pigmented and high quality. The color combinations can be a bit odd sometimes, but overall an excellent product. I highly recommend the flashing whites quint.

Eye Shadow -Calvin Klein - Eye Color Wash
jesdmill 10/8/2001 8:10:00 AM
I recommend these. They're similar to MAC Paints without the shimmer, so they're perfect for people who like the idea but hate the shimmer! They're very sheer and create a beautiful wash of color. They won't work as liners though.

Lip Gloss -Bourjois - Effet 3 D Lipgloss
jesdmill 10/8/2001 8:08:00 AM
I love these! The texture and smell are great, and the colors can't be beat! Also, the brush applicator is wonderful - highly superior to Bobbi Brown's. The colors are all very shimmery and nicely pigmented - can be sheer or opaque depending on useage. I also like to apply mine over a lipstick!

Eye Shadow -Bobbi Brown - Shimmer Wash Shadow - Lilac

I agree with the previous reviewer - this shadow didn't show up on me at all, although it looks so pretty in the pan!

Eye Shadow -Bobbi Brown - Shimmer Wash Eye Shadow (All)
jesdmill 10/8/2001 8:06:00 AM
I generally like these. Although Lilac shimmer didn't show up on me at all, I have and love Rose Gold, Gunmetal, and Chocolate. I use Gunmetal and chocolate as liners and rosegold as both a blush and a shadow. The textures are nice although a tiny but powdery, and they wear well. There may be better shadows for a bit cheaper though.

Lip Gloss -Bobbi Brown - Cream Lip gloss
jesdmill 10/8/2001 8:04:00 AM
These are nice glosses - really closer to a liquid lipstick because of their thick texture. I had Heather Rose (swapped it because it was the wrong color) and the texture was great - and I loved the scent! I recommend these over BB's other glosses, which in my opinion are not worth the price.

Lip Gloss -Bobbi Brown - Lip Gloss
jesdmill 10/8/2001 8:02:00 AM
I don't care for these, although BB's cream glosses are exceptional. These are simply too small for the price. The brush applicator is also not good - after a few uses it begins to splay and spread. I would recommend looking elsewhere for glosses.

Hair -Bloom - Shimmering Hair Gel
jesdmill 10/8/2001 7:53:00 AM
This stuff left no discernable shimmer in my hair, and didn't even perform well as a gel. I wouldn't recommend it.
