Mascara -Kiss Me - Kiss Me Mascara

The jury is still out on this one. I have long lashes but not many of them so I do need a volumising mascara. It made my lashes longer but only seemed to clump together the ones I already had making me look like a dolly-bird from the 60's. Not the most amazing look. However, I shall be patient - maybe I need to apply thinner coats?

In my quest to find the perfect dark metallic brown colour, i have followed the advice of In Style and purchased a low-end product and I am sooooooo pleased! The brush picks up the right amount of colour, distributes it evenly and the colour is perfect. I would recommend this to anyone!

Lip Gloss -MAC - Chai lipglass

Wow, received this in a swap. Tried it and hated it. Determined to have another go, I love it!!! I apply to the bottom lip only and then rub together to create a subtle, shimmery nude lips look. I love the smell and the cute little bottle

Gels/Soaps -Olay - Daily Renewal Body Wash
lucyc 3/10/2003 6:55:00 AM
A huge bottle of this lasts ages - if used with the sponge then it goes even further. I haven't even needed a body lotion after using this! Its cheap, moisturising, smells decent and does what it says on the bottle - need I say more?

Cleansers -The Body Shop - Seaweed Deep Cleansing Facial Wash
lucyc 3/10/2003 6:54:00 AM
This is something I bought because I was in the airport and the most decent shop airside was TBS! And I'm so pleased I got it! It is not drying at all, foams up to a decent but not overwhelming amount and leaves my skin silky soft. The smell is natural and not at all overpowering - a new holy grail!

Lip Gloss -NARS - Hustler
lucyc 3/10/2003 6:52:00 AM
I love the sleek packaging in these glosses and loved the fact it didn't have a taste or a smell. However, the colour was thick like milk chocolate and was very opaque without any shimmer. I wouldn't buy this shade again but would buy the product

Lip Gloss -Stila - lipgloss-nude shine

This was a great product but the colour just was too opaque and didn't give any depth to my lips. I wouldn't buy it again but would try other shades.

Eye Shadow -NARS - Night Fever
lucyc 3/10/2003 5:48:00 AM
This was a disappointment but in the end, with some fiddling, i got it to work. The colour looks fabulous in the pan - dark brown with micro glitter. I was shocked then went it went on as black. Never mind, I blended and blended it and then got a shimmery dark brown shade and blended that on top for my desired look. It took some time but the end result was worth it. I wouldn't buy this again though

Lip Gloss -Lancome - Juicy Tubes - Lychee
lucyc 3/7/2003 6:28:00 AM
I bought this because I desperately wanted a new JT and this was the lightest shade in the airport. This is now my staple - I love the colour (medium pink) which goes on sheer but with lots of sparkle - unlike others which only have a few glittery bits on. The taste is subtle too and not chemically unlike others

Bronzers -MAC - Bronzing Powder
lucyc 2/25/2003 8:45:00 AM
After lemming this product for so long, I finally bit the bullet, finished off my other bronzer and sped down to MAC to buy this and i was not disappointed. It is perfect for MMM's and has a subtle shimmer and can be layered up easily. I am loving the compliments I'm receiving too about my healthy glow!

Highlighters -Guerlain - Les Meteorites balls powder

Fantastic product- the different colours give a halo effect finish which lasts ages (not quite long enough for my skin though!) - would buy again but it is expensive

Lip Treatments -Laura Mercier - lip silk
lucyc 10/29/2002 2:58:00 PM
If I could complain any more about this product I would. It made my lips blister and cost £12.50 for a tiny tube. There are not enough swear words that I can use in this review. Furthermore, I have complained FOUR TIMES to Laura Mercier and not heard anything back
