Polishes -Sinful - Fiji
rated 3 of 5
candyrivera 10/19/2009 6:55:00 PM

It is a pretty violet polish... I found though, that you need at least 3 coats for it not to be too sheer. It seemed too runny too, if that makes sense. I do like the color when applied but I was just a little disappointed with it because the color in the bottle is much more pretty than the color that comes out. It is a good polish color and is shimmery, but I have better purples polishes I like better and end up rarely using this one. I don't think I'll repurchase just on the fact that I have and can find better quality and purple/violet polishes.

Polishes -Essie - Need A Vacation
rated 3 of 5
candyrivera 10/19/2009 6:49:00 PM

I really like this color. It's a pretty, light pale pink but, you don't get the same look on your nails as the color in the bottle. You need at least 2 to 3 coats for it not to be too sheer. It has tiny light pink shimmer in it but it's not distracting or overdone. It is streaky and can be frustrating. If you willing to take about an hour or so to focus on painting your nails then I'd say get it but I feel I can find a pink polish with better consistency so I won't repurchase.

Liquid -L'Oreal - True Match Super-Blendable Makeup SPF 17
rated 4 of 5

I'm really liking this foundation. I don't have bad skin (thankfully) or too many freckles etc. so this foundation is great for me. It's a light to light/medium coverage and really does match my skin tone which is wonderful. It covers the redness I sometimes get around my nose and third eye. It also covered my light freckles on my nose and some mild scars. It didn't feel heavy or have a bad oder. It lasted me the whole day so that was surprising and nice. I did set it with powder so that might of helped the staying power. I'm not much of a fan of heavy foundations unless being photographed so this is my new foundation. I hasn't made me break out yet which is great! Over all I think this is a really good foundation as long as your not looking for full coverage. This is a great casual foundation! I will be repurchasing .

Mascara -Cover Girl - Lash Exact
rated 3 of 5
candyrivera 10/12/2009 3:39:00 PM

Eh, it's alright I guess. It reminds me of Define-A-Lash. I like the full dramatic lash look so if you're the same this mascara isn't for you. It's good for natural looks though, I don't think anyone knew I was wearing mascara when I wore this. All it did for me was darken my lashes and define them a bit, nothing much though.

Cleansers -Neutrogena - Neutrogena Deep Clean Cleanser Cream
rated 3 of 5
candyrivera 10/12/2009 3:51:00 AM

This was ok, it did clean makeup off my face, but I noticed in the first week IT actually broke me out (I don't usually break out) and it got worst within the week, but started to clear up after a week and a half. It was strange. I get nervous when I use this because I'm afraid it will break me out. It may have been a first time reaction or something because it hasn't happened again. I don't see any ral improvement in my skin either though.

rated 4 of 5
candyrivera 10/12/2009 2:11:00 AM

I have normal skin and this stuff really helps keep my skin clear after certain makeups and meds. It does a great job of unclogging and it makes my face feel really cool afterwards, which feel nice to me... Great stuff. Get hard to get off makeup off.

Mascara -Max Factor - 2000 Calorie Extreme Lash Plumper [DISCONTINUED]
rated 3 of 5
candyrivera 10/12/2009 2:07:00 AM

This mascara is pretty much the same as Lash Blast which doesn't do anything for me and neither does this stuff. It didn't lengthen or thicken or anything. I just didn't work out for me, I like big dramatic lashes. The original 2000 calorie was much better than this.

Mascara -Rimmel - Magnif'Eyes Eye Magnifier Eye Opening
rated 2 of 5
candyrivera 10/12/2009 2:05:00 AM

This stuff was horrible on me. I flaked pretty bad on me and turned into a soft grey black at the end of the day. This made my lashes look to spider like, made them stick together and clump.

I didn't like this at all. It was clumpy and did nothing for my lashes. It also flaked on me. Yuck.

Eyeliner -Rimmel - Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil in Pure White
rated 3 of 5
candyrivera 10/12/2009 2:02:00 AM

It's ok, that's about it. I use this for my waterline and have used other liners that lasted longer than this, but it does in a pinch. It soft and glides pretty easily. I'd repurchase just because it's affordable.

Lipstick -Victoria's Secret - Wish
rated 4 of 5
candyrivera 10/12/2009 1:57:00 AM

Such a lovely color! It's beautiful baby pink color. I looks amazing with my skin tone and brightens up my face. I love this lipstick! It's beautiful, I plan on trying more VS lipsticks because of this one. It goes on kind of slick and glossy but turns into a lipstick formula after about a minute.

Gels/Soaps -Bath and Body Works - Banana smoothie three in one
rated 3 of 5
candyrivera 10/12/2009 1:50:00 AM

This was an ok scent for me, I wasn't thrilled but it does smell like bananas but artificial bananas. I don't really consider it a 3-in-1, it's just a body wash. Over all I suppose the smell was good but it didn't wow me enough to buy again.
