Lips -Bare Escentuals - Lip Gloss in Baby
rated 4 of 5

This is a very pretty pink gloss, that goes on well, and stays for a little longer than most non shiny/sticky glosses. And is also more pigmented. I wear this with my BE Shell lipliner, and I'm ready for spring.

Lips -Clinique - Moisture Sheer lipstick SPF 15
rated 5 of 5
pdlsprite 3/15/2003 4:24:00 AM

I have this in Sheer Natural, and am very impressed. Color is a toned down, very natural looking rose, and it almost looks like I have nothing on, except that it plumps and makes my lips shine subtlely. Very moisterizing, and I'll try the other colors now, too.

Eyeliner -Bare Escentuals - in coffee bean
rated 3 of 5
pdlsprite 3/15/2003 4:14:00 AM

This isn't a bad product, just not the greatest. Packaging is horrible. Application of this is so-so, it's hard to get an accurate measure as to how much gets mixed w/water each time. Also, it tends to smudge. I think I'll swap this.

Eyeliner -Prestige - Liquid Eyeliner

This is a fantastic cheap liner, with great packaging, and a great applicator. I have this in black-brown, which gives me a very pretty natural look if smudged, and also creates a nice fine line.

Mascara -Max Factor - 2000 Calorie Mascara
rated 4 of 5
pdlsprite 3/15/2003 4:09:00 AM

I'm only giving this four lipsticks because I've found a better mascara (maybelline volum express waterproof), and I won't be repurchasing. However, I used this for years, and it was the only mascara that didn't clump on me, and the brush it comes with is the most perfectly constructed mascara wand I've come across yet. Seperates, creates volume, no picking at your lashes afterwards. I've had this product in Deep Auburn, and it creates such a pretty, natural look. I reccomend this product to anyone.

Eye Shadow -Cover Girl - Eye Enhancers
rated 4 of 5
pdlsprite 3/15/2003 3:54:00 AM

While I'm deeply in love with higher end shadows right now, I also like my old CG eye trio in Shades of Suede. Perfect for just about any occasion, especially nights out. This comes in an cream, brown, and dark brown. Not as highly pigmented as I'd like, but still a great product for the money.

Styling Products -Clinique - Light Control Gel
rated 5 of 5
pdlsprite 3/15/2003 3:45:00 AM

I love this gel! I see a def improvement in shine, control, and less frizzies. I got this as a sample, and I'll go back for more. Even my b/f, who really doesn't notice these things, commented on how gorgeous my hair has been looking.

Eye Shadow -Bare Escentuals - Glimmer- Cultured Pearl
rated 2 of 5
pdlsprite 3/15/2003 3:38:00 AM

I just don't know what to do with this color. It clashes with everything I have. The only thing I can "kind of" use it for, is to highlight right under my brows. It's a pure white shimmer, and I just have no need for that in my e/s collection. I won't be repurchasing.

Eye Shadow -Bare Escentuals - Glimmer- Bare Skin
rated 5 of 5
pdlsprite 3/15/2003 3:35:00 AM

This is one of two BE eyeshadows that I really like. The other one is Desire. I find these two colors to be great for that spring/summer "barely there" look. It highlights and makes my eyes beautiful. You can barely see it, but it makes such a difference. I will be buying this again.

Eye Shadow -Bare Escentuals - Glimmer of Purrfect
rated 2 of 5
pdlsprite 3/15/2003 3:33:00 AM

I'm not very impressed with this brownish/black shimmery color. It's too dark to wear all over the lid, but not pigmented enough to use as a shader, or next to the liner. I won't be buying this again. (also, didn't care for the gold sheen)

Eye Shadow -Bare Escentuals - Glimmer of Desire
rated 5 of 5
pdlsprite 3/15/2003 3:31:00 AM

This is one of only two BE shadows I care for. The color is gorgeous, and perfect for that natural look. This shadow doesn't last as long as I'd like, but is still alot of product for your money. I will be buying this shade again. (also, it's not too shimmery. It doesn't JUMP out at you)

Lip Treatments -Blistex - Herbal Answer Lip Balm
rated 3 of 5
pdlsprite 3/6/2003 11:06:00 PM

This had a lemon smell to it, and is very thick. However, I had no problem applying it, and it makes my lips look nice. This doesn't last as long as other lip balms on the market, though.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Cultured
rated 2 of 5
pdlsprite 3/6/2003 10:59:00 PM

This lipglass was a little too "cotton candy" pink for me. Good for clubbing, though. The staying power of these lipglasses aren't that hot either, and I have difficulty putting on a second and third coat without it looking and feeling grainy (on bare lips, not on l/s). So, I think I'll stick to my Lancome Juicy Tubes till something better comes along.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Squirt Lipglass
rated 2 of 5

This didn't turn caramel on my lips, just kept on with the eeiry green shade. The staying power of these lipglasses aren't that hot, either, and I have difficulty putting on a second and third coat without it looking and feeling grainy (on bare lips, not on l/s). So, I think I'll stick to my Lancome Juicy Tubes till something better comes along.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lipglass in Prrr
rated 4 of 5
pdlsprite 3/6/2003 10:55:00 PM

This is a very nice, shiney gloss, that goes fairly well over my lipsticks. The color is gorgeous and tasteful, a mauvey pink. The staying power of these lipglasses aren't that hot, however, and I have difficulty putting on a second and third coat without it looking and feeling grainy (on bare lips, not on l/s). So, I think I'll stick to my Lancome Juicy Tubes till something better comes along.
