Highlighters -MAC - Mineralize Skinfinish in Shimpagne (Rococo) [DISCONTINUED]
Libellule1985 8/31/2005 8:01:00 AM
Shimpagne is a frosty beige. This highlighter is awesome! It goes great with my skintone (Yellow/olive undertones). Too bad it's LE, anyway you only need a tiny amount!

Primer/ Corrector -MAC - Prep + Prime Skin
Libellule1985 8/30/2005 3:33:00 PM
I love love love this primer! It's white, but goes on clear on the skin, with tiny shimmers. I can't see them under my foundation. You only need a small amount, and it's so smooth and soft, like silk. Not greasy though. I have oily skin, and it's not more oily with this product. You can blend any foundations with this primer, it doesn't cake, even if your foundation dry too quickly. Awesome product!

Awesome idea! I love the concept, even better than gifts with purchase. (At least, you can choose which shade you want!)

Eyeliner -MAC - All Eye Kohls
Libellule1985 8/28/2005 11:36:00 PM
I love MAC eye khol! They are soft and I can smudge them easily for a sexy smokey look. They are not made to be used as an eyeliner, it's a khol, so it's for waterline or to smudge it around the eyes.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Damzel Lipglass
Libellule1985 8/25/2005 10:16:00 PM
Damzel is a true light-medium pink with pearl. Not glittery like Flash of Flesh or Pink Clash! It's not a warm pink (I can't see peach or coral in this color), it's neutral with some cool undertones. I can wear it even if my skin is yellow/olive.

Lotions/ Creams -Clinique - Happy Heart Body Cream
Libellule1985 8/24/2005 10:30:00 PM
Happy Heart body cream is a nice moisturizer, it's silky and not greasy. But it's too perfumed for a body cream, I can't wear it! The smell is too strong. Too bad because I love the silky finish on my skin.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Little Minx
Libellule1985 8/23/2005 9:48:00 PM
Little Minx is a purple with blue/grey undertones, I can't really see the pink shimmers when I use it on my lids. I returned it because this shade wasn't enough pigmented and too powdery (Chalky, doesn't stick on the skin, even with a Paint). I tried it with Mixing Medium, but it was too thick, I wasn't able to blend it. Yuck!

Lip Gloss -MAC - Mad Cap
Libellule1985 8/23/2005 9:16:00 PM
Mad Cap is a Lipglass from Naturally Eccentric. It's a caramel-beige color. It's darker and warmer than what I expected. Too warm and too orangey for me, even with a tan.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Inventive Eyes Quad
Libellule1985 8/23/2005 9:12:00 PM
Inventive Eyes is a quad from Naturally Eccentric collection. There is 4 shades in this quad: White Wheat (Frost), Velour (Satin), Twillery (Veluxe Pearl) and Inventive (Velvet). White Wheat is a creamy yellow white with a gold sheen. Nothing is similar to this shade, except Toronto (From Cargo), but it's more translucid. Velours is the rotten apple in this quad, I don't really like it. It's a neutral taupe and it's matte. Twillery is so nice, it's a must-have! It's so smooth (A Veluxe Pearl!! Yay!!), and the color is awesome. It's like a warm Coco pigment, but not orangey. Think about Coco without the mauve undertones. Inventive is a dark purple with gold/green tiny shimmers. I use it in the crease or as a liner (With Mixing Medium) or over a purple eye khol. Even if Velours is not pretty, the others shades are so pretty that you still need this quad. I'm in love, I would buy it again if it wasn't limited edition.

Highlighters -MAC - Skinfinish-Stereo Rose
Libellule1985 8/23/2005 11:48:00 AM
Stereo Rose is a coral pink with pinky iridescence. I'm in love with the glowy finish, like Mandy Moore used to have on her cheeks! I only give 4 lippies because if I apply too much, it looks orangey, even when I am tan! Awesome color though, if you have pale skin, you'll need the #187 brush to apply Stereo Rose.

Treatments (Eye) -Biotherm - Aquasource Yeux Non Stop Gel
Libellule1985 8/22/2005 1:51:00 PM
Aquasource Eyes is made to hydrate the skin around the eyes. Buy it if you only need more hydratation, it does nothing for fine lines, undereyes circles and puffiness. It's light and not greasy. I will not buy this product again because I need something for my underyes circles. Hydra-Detox is better for this purpose. But I give 4 lippies because it do what it's supposed to do, moisturize.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Living Pink - RebelRock 2005
Libellule1985 8/17/2005 9:40:00 AM
Living Pink is a shimmery bright pink with gold sparkles. The sparkles are not glittery and the texture is soft. It's well pigmented. In my opinion, nothing compares to Living Pink, even Sushi Flower is less bright (and not shimmery).

Lipstick -MAC - Naturally Eccentric
Libellule1985 8/16/2005 8:29:00 PM
Naturally Eccentric lipstick is from Naturally Eccentric collection. It's a very pale pink shade, almost white, without any shimmers. It's a Lustre formula, but it's more opaque than regular Lustre. It's way too pale to be worn alone, but I use it to tone down darker shades. Even Expensivo and Brew are darker than Naturally Eccentric. I would not buy this product again and I only give 3 lippies because I can only wear it if I mix it with others shades.

Lipstick -MAC - Birds Of a Feather
Libellule1985 8/14/2005 11:12:00 PM
Birds Of a Feather is a medium/dark pink with subtle purple undertones, without any shimmers. It's an Amplified finish, so it's smooth and creamy. It's darker than what I usually wear, and it's too purple/cool tones for my olive complexion.

Blush -MAC - Blushcreme - Uncommon
Libellule1985 8/14/2005 11:06:00 PM
Uncommon is from Naturally Eccentric collection. It's a muted rosy/peachy nude color. It's a great neutral blush for pale or medium skintones. It's not enough pigmented for dark skintones. (If you try to apply more product, it will feel and look too greasy) I can't see shimmers in this shade, but it's not a matte finish, it's dewy. I give only 4 lippies because it's sticky on my skin, but it's okay after 1-2 hours.
