Lipstick -L'Oreal - Colour Riche Crystal Shine - 328 Shimmering Amethyst
cosmic_flash 12/13/2003 3:39:00 PM
This is a sheer formula of the original Colour Riche lipstick. Its a sheer berry color with A LOT of shimmers. *not frosty at all* but very shimmery. Its kinda like L'Oreal Glam Shine Lipgloss in a lipstick, thats how i would describe it. However this color is a tad too cool for my very warm asian complexion. Nice texture though, doesnt dry out lips.

Palettes -Sue Devitt - Starbrights - Capella
cosmic_flash 12/9/2003 7:55:00 PM
This is my favorite palette out of my whole collection. I got Capella (The purple one) It has lovely colors:
A medium purple gloss
A light pink gloss
A medium purple cream blush
And again, Sue Devitt's quality never ceases to amaze me, the glossed are great, the pink one adds a subtle hue, the purple one looks a bit inimidating in the pan, but goes on fairly sheer and still added a purple kicked pink tint to my pigmented lips. The cream brush looks VERY scary in the pan, and still a bit scary on your cheeks, but once blended with my finger tips, it looks more than lovely. The colors are great and would look good with any complexions.
The palette itself it packaged black and slick with a fair sized mirror inside. Woud repurchase in new colors.

Lip Gloss -Stila - Orange Lipglaze
cosmic_flash 12/1/2003 12:24:00 AM
Looks like its guna eat you in the tube, a bright dark orangy red. But on its pretty. Not much orange, but more of a sheer red with a peachy oranged undertone. The only red that wouldnt clash with strong eyes. Not something i would wear everything though. I own 4 lipglazes, and at 24 a pop, its robbery.

Lip Gloss -Passport - Getaway Gloss To Go SCHILLING
cosmic_flash 12/1/2003 12:19:00 AM
This is an okay gloss. Milky opal pink with pink shimmers. It goes on basically clear with pink shimmer particles, that what give it the pink tint on lips. The shine is very subtle. Not a 'Hey, lipgloss!' shine, but a 'Your lips look pretty.' shine. Its an okay lipgloss. Average staying power.

Lip Gloss -Rocket City - Rocket City Gloss in Beam
cosmic_flash 11/30/2003 9:14:00 PM
This is very cute. Its a nice beigey purpley color, but it doesnt look retarded like how i described it. (And no, its not what Sephora described it either). It looks super frosty in the tube, but you only need to applie sheerly to get great shine (best if with lip brush). I love it (And im a frost-a-phobic!) It was sticky enough to last on lips, but not as sticky as MAC lipglasses, which is how sticky i prefer my glosses...
It actually makes your lips quite nude, its a great way to tone down a color, and i love it alone when i want to draw attantion to my eyes. Its a great variation nude to regular beige nude colors. I loved it so much i bought 2!!

Mascara -Jane - Hi-Fiber Mascara
cosmic_flash 11/24/2003 7:29:00 PM
HG mascara after i have tried Lancome, Clinique, L'Oreal.
This is the ONLY thing that would curl my short stubby asian lashes WITHOUT a curler. Does a great job lengthening also.
I havnt gotten any fibre in my eyes yet but im sure if i did it would hurt like a mother. Thats the only CON of this product.

I absolutely cannot stand the smell. Smells like toxic cat pee! I didnt even pay attantion to the color because of the smell. Untolerable.

Eyeliner -Bobbi Brown - Violet Ink Long-Wear Gel Liner
cosmic_flash 10/27/2003 9:36:00 PM
This is an okay product, stays like iron but im not real good at application. No clue on what brush to use. Great color also, black with a flash of purple. Dont know what else to do with this...
EDIT: Swapped it. I prefer my eyeliner in pencil and a little more smudgy.

Lip Gloss -Bonne Bell - Sweet Mocha - lip d'votion
cosmic_flash 10/27/2003 9:30:00 PM
This is seriously my HG lipgloss. Great for everyday. Its just about half a shade browner than Stila's Cinnamon Lip Glaze, without the golden shimmers, and it looks absolutly fab on me! And for this price you could get 6 of these for 1 Stila. Its crazy. I def rec. this. Great shade and stays on forever, texture tacky, but what can i say, i love sticky MAC lipglass also... SMELLS DIVINE!! like Starbuck's chocolate malt! :)

Lip Gloss -Stila - Cinnamon Lip Glaze
cosmic_flash 10/27/2003 9:26:00 PM
I recently rediscovered this after seeing it mentioned in a swap. Its a great color and all, and stays on nice and smells divine. But i was def. out of my mind when i spend freakin 24 buckaroos on this. Stupid Stila can go to hll with its lip glazes. On second thought, leave this lipglazes and go to hll.

Moisturizers -St. Ives - Cucumber & Elastin Eye & Face Stress Gel ] [DISCONTINUED]
cosmic_flash 10/27/2003 9:23:00 PM
This stuff is okay, i notice a slight difference after a few minutes within applying, it depuffs my eyes slightly. I mean, for 3 dollars i dont expect it to do miracles, but this is the only product that has ever gotten close to demolishing my puffy eyes, so i would def. buy this again.
The smell didnt bother me, nor was my skin irritated. I didnt get it in my eyes so i dont know if it stings or not. Overall its a great product.

Lip Gloss -Paula Dorf - Lip Slides
cosmic_flash 10/27/2003 8:33:00 PM
I like this a lot, i got this in shy and its a clearish pink tint color with gold shimmers, very pretty. No scent, but its goopy like MAC lipglass and stays on better than MAC, and doesnt 'feel' as sticky as MAC. Its kinda weird. Anyway, the packaging does ooze a little because the tube is so skinny and everytime you jam the wand in, it oozes.
