Lotions/ Creams -Nivea - Skin Firming Lotion
rated 4 of 5
pupiq 12/15/2008 12:43:00 PM

This stuff is really good as a basic moisturizer. It isn't too greasy, makes my skin so soft and just feeling really healthy, in addition, i really like the scent, which is kinda powdery but light and does not interfere with the perfume. I don't know, maybe it wont give you a miraculously firm body (it's just a lotion after all) but it leaves skin feeling well and looking so too. Worth to try, imo.

Fragrances -Kenzo - Flower

I could describe this scent being innocent, clean, powdery but not boring at all... it is quite sexy and cute... To me it's somewhat unique and i like it alot. it really works on me, and i'm not a fan of flowery scents.

Fragrances -The Body Shop - Perfume Oil- Neroli Jasmin
rated 3 of 5
pupiq 11/24/2008 3:00:00 PM

after using it for a while, i came up that it is just too generous/boring and perfumey for me. In addition i don't detect any jasmine. However i can see others using and loving it, it has good staying power too.

Mascara -Maybelline - Volum' Express The Colossal

This is amazing! I never expected such good prouct from this brand, and i would never buy it if it wasn't all those ads! It does all those things every mascara should do: thickens, lenghtens, separates, is layerable from natural to quite dramatic, is true in color (i have black), stays put ( i forgot to remove it before sunbeding, however it melt just a little, despite there being really hot), doesnt make eyelashes too stiff! I would give it a five but i wish it came in waterfproof ( maybe later it would), and be a little bit more dramatic. Its really worth to try.

Hair -L'Oreal - Elnett Hairspray
rated 3 of 5
pupiq 11/13/2008 1:28:00 PM

It's a quite good basic hairspray. I have elnett satin extra stong hold. it can get 'crispy' if not used carefully, also it make my hair oilier and does not provide lots of volume. However, i like it because it's great for finishing touch, dosn't dry out my hair at all, is easy to comb out and after i comb it out my hair is softer and shinier than before i put it on! it has a powdery scent which would not appeal to everyone, not really bothering to me though. Just an ordinary hairspray.

Foundations -Make Up For Ever - HD High Definition Foundation
rated 5 of 5
pupiq 10/31/2008 3:33:00 PM

I purchased it after my beloved F&B foundation had broken me. This is the best foundation i ever used and i cannot look to ds foundations anymore. Actually now peope who is wearing false looking foundation look so ridiculous to me! Yes, this can look like you wearing foundation, but still very natural, soft and good looking, not cheap or too obvious at all. Photos are great with this on. Also, it last on me until i take it off, i only set it with some ds loose powder. I use shade 125, and couldn't be happier, as it bleds effortlessly into my skin, concealing all the flaws without the mask look. It also improved my previously broken skin, but it isnt too moisturising ( i don't really need it to be, as i have oily skin). It is oil free, and i havent noticed any clogged pores. It is a wonderful product i'm definately going to buy it again despite such high price.

Lipstick -Rimmel - Lasting Finish - Birthday Suit
rated 4 of 5

It's really lovely, cheap and lasts quite a while nor is extremely drying. The color looks pretty neutral on me, really pretty with slight peach undertones. For the price it's a good product.

Treatments -Dove - Therapy Repairing Treatment for Severly Dry or Damaged Hair
rated 5 of 5
pupiq 10/28/2008 2:57:00 PM

This product beats all my high end salon hair products for the effect it provides! Recently, my hair became drier, thinner, coarser, just overall in worse condition and needed a deep conditioning. I'm so glad that i tried this. Made my hair smoother, softer, split ends not so prominent! It also gave it shine. I'm verry happy, maybe i even try shampoo and conditioner.

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Spirit Antonio Banderas Eau De Toilette Natural Spray for Women
rated 3 of 5
pupiq 10/28/2008 2:44:00 PM

It is a quite sensual, sweet and warm scent. Warm in an oriental way, not in the carribean way (in my personal terms) Surprisingly, i kinda like it. It says it has notes of red fruits, fresia, white iris, sandalwood, incense, oriental aromas. Yes, can feel those, howerer, the fragrance itself is not ovehelming or heavy, its sweet but quite fresh actually, i even sense a citrus note in it. At first, it seemed to me a really mature perfume and i was about to giving it to my mother but after a while it dried down and became youthful, light without losing it's sensuality. It's not the favorite of mine because it lacks some individuality, definition, i love really outstanding fragrances, but i see myself using it from time to time. It's pretty lovely scent, worth to try, it lasts also.

Liquid -Make Up For Ever - Face & Body Foundation
rated 3 of 5
pupiq 10/21/2008 11:03:00 AM

This is superior to all other foundation i ever tried! Definately, the best i have used. Usually, i was quite happy with drugstore foundations, probably because my skin doesn't look extremely bad, and i the foundation wasnt the most important makeup item for me. However, one day, i looked in photos, and decided that i need better/more expensive foundation,because Ithought that I have only one skin, so it deserves the best treatment i can provide. If you must to choose, then choose more expensive foundation than, for example, mascara (and I just love mascara, but that's another story) This foundation, compared to all others, is really superb. It has light, but fabulous coverage, gives skin healthy,silky appearance and sheen. It doesn't feel on the skin (which is really important to me), doesn't look too obvious! In addition, it stays put all day, however gets shiny on my oily skin. I really hate the package and smell, still it's minor disadvantantages. Doesn't transfer. Looks just wonderful in photos, not obvious but flawless ( and i don't use concealer at all) ! Yay, now i like my photos :D Definately will buy again and i'm looking forward to purchase anothe MUFE items. EDIT: It broke me out on chin and jaw :( so i purchased another mufe foundation, which is even better than this and doesn't break me at all, HD foundation. F and B is a really good foundation and u might like it, but you should test it out before purchasing.

Fragrances -Moschino - I Love Love
rated 3 of 5
pupiq 10/18/2008 8:02:00 AM

I was given it as a gift. Yup, I'm on the fence with this one. At first it really smelled cheap to me, but not in a very bad way, cuz the smell reminded me of sour candies, which i really love. Very sour, lemony, orangey with a hint of powder and.. soap? Notes, which really arent my favorite. On the other hand, it really made me feel energized, more awake, and the smell wasn't really bothersome as i thought it would be ... As the day went on, i found myself sniffing my hand! Actually, after a while it does evolve to something sexier than a bunch of citrusy fruits,it becomes warmer, musky, i even smell a hint of cinnamon,(which I really love). Other people have found this fragrance nice too. I don't know, it's quite neutral i think, however I wouldnt purchase it.

Eye Primer -Artdeco - Eyeshadow Base
rated 5 of 5
pupiq 10/13/2008 11:59:00 AM

I just love it, cause it keeps my eye makeup looking fresh, until it's time to take it off. In addition, it makes all eyeshadows more dewy, improving overall makeup effect. It's cheap too and it keeps my cheap golden maybelline eyeshadow in place, that's almost miraculous :D I really don't have to say anything negative about this product, it's worth to try. However now I'm keen to try other eyeshadow bases, like too faced., maybe more expensive would be even better.

Misc Beauty Tools -Unlisted Brand - Microfiber cloths

pupiq 10/9/2008 12:54:00 PM

Well, I never thought of using this on my face until i found this site, so big thanks ^___^ I really love this, it's so cheap yet provides a wonderful effect on the skin; makes it clean, soft and radiant. Flakes are gone without using some expensive exfoliator, without drying my skin out! I'm really surprised but it does work. My skin felt better from the first day I tried it. Definately worth to try.

Hair Color -Garnier - 100% Color [DISCONTINUED]
rated 4 of 5
pupiq 9/13/2008 9:47:00 AM

I love this product. Gave almost exact shade i wanted, a dark, cool ash blonde (701). Some people could hardly call me blonde but i like it, cause i don't stand light hair/bronzed skin look; to me, hair must be darker than skin. Ok, so the product is quite good, especially for such cheap price. The color is true to the box, it haven't dried my hair or worsen their condition, the conditioner left them smooth and lovely. Also, the smell is bearable and consistency is quite thin, but not too drippy. Sadly, it haven't given more shine to my hair... Still, i would buy it again.

Mascara -Chanel - Extracils Mascara
rated 3 of 5
pupiq 8/25/2008 7:10:00 AM

Well, this mascara isn't very remarkable, yet nothing too bad about it. ou'll like it if want dark, glossy but natural looking lashes as it does not deliver infinite lenght, volume or curl. Texture is very nice, goes on smoothly but for such price it definately should! However, if you looking for a dramatic results, you should skip this. To me, it wasn't impressive enough to be repurchased.
