Eye Shadow -MAC - Lavender Sky
rated 4 of 5

This goes on your lids way different looking than the in the pot color. It ends up a pastel easter bunny pale toned brightly pigmented pink. Not blue like a lavendar, just easter bunny pink with a sheen. It's wonderful. A pleasant surprise, I wasn't expecting much from the in the pan look of a muted pinky grey laveder. Great sheen and a great pink eyeshadow!

Eye Shadow -NYX - Ultra Pearl Mania

These are fabulous, a super incredibly finely milled powder. Irridencent bordering on chromatic in it's reflection. An excellent pigment powder, nice variation of shades and inexpensive but with high end quality. Definetly recommended.

Great mettalic blue/green. Very pigmented... a total change from the old maybelline eyeshadows that were pale chalky junk. This is as vibrant as my MAC shadows. Fits into my collection of bright wonderful things well.

Eye Shadow -Sally Girl - Sally Girl Eye Shadow Connecting Compacts

Wow these are incredible for such an inexpensive product! I love these as much as my MAC and old jane eyeshadows. They have great colors, mattes, shimmers and frosts. These are equal to MACs quality and only about 6% of the price of one MAC shadow. Go out and collect them all you won't regret it or be out much money at only .99 cents a shot.

Polishes -Sally Girl - Sally Girl - Nail Color - general
rated 1 of 5
ScullyNess 2/29/2008 10:38:00 PM

I have to agree with a few other past reviewers. I expect my nail polish to be at least somewhat shiny! These dried slightly streaky but completely dull finished! I didn't think that was possible with nail polishes. It really did look like I'd drawn on my nail with a magic marker, or a pink highlighter. Egads!, a complete waste of my money, the little that I did spend, thank god. Sally eyeshadows and lipsticks are great, but stay away from their dreadful nail polishes.

Lipstick -Max Factor - Pink/Rose Meringue
rated 4 of 5
ScullyNess 2/29/2008 10:32:00 PM

A very barbie opaque pink. Excellent coverage, a summer time color because of being a bright rose pink.Not a dusty rose, like a pastel pink one, very pretty if your in the pink craze. The creamy thick texture of this and the other original now discontinued maxfactor long lasting lipsticks can't be beat. Estee lauder's don't have as much staying power and MAC's aren't as creamy and smooth. If you can find the originals on ebay, I suggest you snag them up! They are getting difficult to find. The new gel based ones aren't nearly as nice.

Lipstick -NYX - B52
rated 5 of 5
ScullyNess 2/29/2008 7:32:00 PM

A mid toned mauve, a great my lips but better look if you have somewhat pigmented lips to begin with like I have. This is a great at work, or going to an interview color. Makes you look very sharp and presentable without being overdone. A nude that isn't pale or sickly thank god! This is a borderline matte but definetly more like a satin. It's opaque, not the least bit sheer. Best of all it completely retracts in it's case, doesn't half hang out like a lot of cheaply priced brands. So no accidents can befall and snap your lipstick in half as easily. What a great deal all around. A+ product

Eye Shadow -NYX - Ultra Pearl Mania - Space Pearl
rated 5 of 5
ScullyNess 2/29/2008 7:18:00 PM

Super finely milled, ULTIMATE beautiful chrome blue finish when applied with a mixing agent, such as a touch of mac Fix+ on your brush. Pure pigment in a bottle and only cost me .99 cents instead of $20.00 dollars! You can't beat it, Also wanted to note, I don't mind the shape of the bottle, my favorite brush actually fits in it just fine. Hooray for NYX!

Eye Shadow -Rimmel - Colour Rush Quad in Smoky Purple
rated 1 of 5
ScullyNess 2/26/2008 9:27:00 PM

Stay far far farrrrr away from Rimmel's eyeshadows. They are so pale and chalky muted grey looking. Terrible quality, if you want decent drug store shadow, stick to Jane, or even maybelline's new formula. Don't waste any cash on these!

Eye Shadow -Rimmel - eyeshadows
rated 1 of 5
ScullyNess 2/26/2008 9:23:00 PM

Terrible product, even with a good base and fix+ as a mixing agent it was still pale looking and next to impossible to blend, I put on so many layers just to get it to show up. Unfortunatly a pathetic useless product. I love rimmel nail polish, but stay away from the eyeshadows!!!

Lipstick -Wet 'n' Wild - 513 - Wizard
rated 5 of 5
ScullyNess 2/26/2008 11:52:00 AM

Wet and Wild did what MAC didn't even manage to do completely well with their Blue Streak line they had out last year in 2007. MAC's blue was far far to sheer, this is a true dark straight up deep blue. Not sheer, it's not completely matte in color, it has a slightly silverish sheen very vaguely against the light. If you want to collect colors out of the normal mold of nudes, mauves, and pinks, Get this to add to your collection. You won't regret it.

ScullyNess 10/21/2007 8:24:00 PM

This is fabulous! It really does last all day and all night. I don't have a problem applying it at all. I just use my finger tip and blend. You have to try this foundation if you don't have tons of time to play fix my face in the mirror during the day! Excellent even coverage!

Polishes -Rimmel - Lycra Wear 10 +Minerals #403 Hypnotise
rated 4 of 5
ScullyNess 10/21/2007 8:19:00 PM

Two coats makes the color in the bottle.. nice smooth applying. It's the exact color that shows in the bottle... not brown as another review stated. Good color for people who can't pull off red, or straight black. An excellent inbetween. A great fall and winter shade!

Polishes -Estee Lauder - Pure Color Nail Lacquer
rated 5 of 5
ScullyNess 10/16/2007 7:20:00 PM

Personally I don't know how this product is getting so many bad reviews. I own several brands of nail polish and this is the brand I reach for the most. It always goes on streak free and perfect for it's shade in one coat. White petal is the absolute perfect make your nails look clean and manicured in one coat. It's a good polish and pretty fast drying. Thank god for one coat polishes such as Estee Lauder! I can put on a different color in the morning and still make it to work on time! Would definetly repurchase even more on top of what I already own!

Polishes -Wet 'n' Wild - 424 Black Creme
rated 5 of 5
ScullyNess 10/16/2007 6:22:00 PM

A black polish that delivers just that, black. It's good consistency, it's not too runny and it goes on smoothly. It's not shimmery, thank the lord. It's a nice shiney cream black. The brush it comes with does me just as well as my estee lauder nail polish brushes that I like also. Only 1 or 2 coats at the most is needed. Who needs 8-18 dollar a bottle for a great black polish when this exsists.... Nobody... that's who. You have to run out and buy this for fall and winter! No time like the present to try out something new and bold!
