Masks -Queen Helene - Mint Julep Masque
SierraMascara 7/6/2008 2:31:00 PM
I use this mask once or twice a week and my face always feels so squeaky clean and fresh afterwards. My skin is usually normal/dry but whenever it gets oily, I slather this stuff on, and bam! no more oil. When I break out, I slather it on some more, and bam! the redness is reduced by quite a bit. It doesn't get rid of my pimples, but it definitely helps with the process. This mask is very cool and tingly. The first time I put it on it kind of burned, but it went away. I do have pretty sensitive skin. It's a little hard to get the product out of the tube but it gets easier with practice. A little goes a long way. Will continue to buy :)

Polishes -OPI - Pompeii Purple
SierraMascara 7/6/2008 2:09:00 PM
This is my favorite nail polish! It's super-hot pink with a bluish-purple sheen. I always get compliments on it. I'm super pale but this would look great on all skintones. It's perfect for summer and makes the winter months more bearable.

Lip Gloss -Sephora - Ultra-Shine Lip Gloss 16
SierraMascara 6/26/2008 6:52:00 PM
Looooove this lip gloss. The color is a nice natural-rosy color that has a slight golden shimmer to it. It enhances my natural lip color without looking like too much. It's not too sticky, it's shiny, and it smells kind of like bubblegum. The staying power is good. The tube is big and durable. I think it's pretty much perfect. *UPDATE* Blehh, this stuff went rancid! It no longer smells like bubblegum, now it is a sour smell that makes me feel sick. It was nice while it lasted but I will not be repurchasing anymore.. :(

Mascara -Cover Girl - Lash Exact
SierraMascara 2/28/2007 8:27:00 PM
I have this mascara in waterproof black. It never smudges. It only clumps occasionally, but that's usually my fault. It does a good job of separating my lashes. I get more of a natural look with this. The wand is great, you can tell it will work well just by looking at it. The reason I took two lippies is because I know that there are better mascaras out there. Plus, the black color isn't really a true black, and it actually looks blue in certain lighting (??).

Hair Styling Tools -Remington - Wet 2 Straight
SierraMascara 2/28/2007 8:19:00 PM
pros: straightens quickly & nicely. cons: fries wet hair, beeps, catches hair. This is one of the best cheap-o straighteners I have used. I would recommend this if you're looking for straight hair for a low price, but I would not recommend this if you have frizzy hair or if you are expecting a miracle. The noise it makes when you change the temperature or turn it on/off can get on your nerves! On the plus side, though, it beeps when it's ready to be used. Overall, this straightener is alright. It works. I probably wouldn't buy it again, though. *EDIT*: So I purchased a professional flat iron soon after this review and I have to say that the Remington is crap compared to it. I look at my hair then and now and there is a huge difference in the health and frizziness of my hair. Taking off a lippie!
