Eye Shadow -Prestige - Eye Shadow - Glisten

First let me say that I love shadows that aren't dry and streaky.This definately isn't. Glisten is a gorgeous fluffy white color with gold flecks.It looked great on my pale skin!It blends easily and doesn't snow all over you cheeks.Definately a keeper!

Lipstick -Prestige - Lipstick (new packaging/formula)
rated 4 of 5
SparklyPinkCoconut 2/22/2004 11:24:00 PM

I have this in Madrid,which is a beautiful soft,medium pink.It goes perfectly with the Prestige lipliner in Baby.The only thing I didn't like about the lipsticks, was that it didn't too long. Other than that,these are great!

Eyeliner -Prestige - Liquid Eyeliner

SparklyPinkCoconut 2/22/2004 11:20:00 PM

I usually love anything Prestige, but this stuff was terrible.It was thick and clumpy and looked horribly blotchy on my lids.I don't know,maybe I got a bad one. It wasn't pretty.

Treatments -Burt's Bees - avocado hair treatment

I agree with the review below.My hair was drier after I used this. The consistency was horrible-an oily,thick,paste-like mess.Like many other Burts Bees products, this is a huge disappointment.

Polishes -Revlon - ColorStay Always On Nail Enamel [DISCONTINUED]
rated 3 of 5

These didn't stay on as long as advertised.The polish was chipping by day five.So it's pretty much an average polish,with an above average pricetag.

Lip Gloss -Prestige - Vinylwear
rated 5 of 5
SparklyPinkCoconut 2/22/2004 8:23:00 PM

These are my absolute favorite glosses!The formula is amazing. They're as thick as MAC lipglass, but don't dry out your lips.The staying power can't be beat.The taste doesn't bother me at all.I have pale skin and my favorite colors are Spark (shimmery raspberry with a slightly brown undertone),Mica (baby pink), Merengue (soft,shimmery red),and Cha Cha (the perfect nude for pale skin).They're only about $3.75 each,so you can go out and buy a handful!

Eye Shadow -L'Oreal - On the Loose Shimmering Powders [DISCONTINUED]
rated 4 of 5
SparklyPinkCoconut 2/22/2004 8:03:00 PM

I love these so much.There are many beautiful colors in the line and one pot will last forever. Unfortunately,they'll have to last forever as they've been discontinued.You can still get them,and in fact they're clearance priced so you can stock up (guilty).My favorite colors are Diva Down (aqua),Flash Light (light gold),Hyper Space (brown Gold),and Sugar Coated (white). Since these are loose powders they can be a bit messy,but applying them wet will cut down on that (it will also make the color more intense).I will miss these,but I plan to build a surplus :-)

Lipstick -L'Oreal - Shine Delice - All colors [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5
SparklyPinkCoconut 2/22/2004 5:32:00 PM

I loooooove these!I usually am not a fan of lipstick (I prefer gloss), but these are almost a lipstick/gloss hybird.They are sheer and very shiny.Perfect for a natural,juicy look.I am very sad they're being discontinued. :-(

Treatments -Burt's Bees - Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream
rated 1 of 5
SparklyPinkCoconut 2/22/2004 5:24:00 PM

This somehow managed to leave my cuticles drier than before I applied it.Go figure.It is also very greasy and the scent is overpowering.I don't really care for the tin it comes in either.It's a bit messy and doesn't seem hygenic.I don't think anything is more moisturing than the little yellow sticks of cocoa butter I get at Walgreens.Perfect for cuticles,and makes application a breeze.

The colors are absolutely beautiful.Unfortunately,they crease,smear,and last about an hour.The packaging is also very messy.

Loose Powders -Revlon - Skinlights Face Illuminator [DISCONTINUED]

I have very pale skin and bought this in the lightest shade (?). This gave my skin a lovely green glow.I don't know why it looked green,but it did.Unfortunately,I didn't realize this until after I had come home from a day at the library and my husband pointed out that I looked seasick.And I thought all the stares were because I was so astoundingly beautiful.

Lipstick -Max Factor - Lipfinity
rated 1 of 5
SparklyPinkCoconut 2/22/2004 4:51:00 PM

This is just as bad as CG Outlast. Horribly drying,takes paint thinner to get off (god forbid you make a mistake while applying),and gunks up in the corners of my mouth.I do not like this product. But that's not too surprising given that I dislike the entire Max Factor line.

Mascara -Jane - Hi-Fiber Mascara
rated 2 of 5
SparklyPinkCoconut 2/22/2004 4:44:00 PM

Eh.I bought this in Purplex (purple).This stuff is cheap (I'm talking about the quality).It's clumpy,flakey,just gross in general.The end.

Lipstick -Maybelline - Wet Shine lipstick
rated 4 of 5
SparklyPinkCoconut 2/22/2004 4:24:00 PM

These will give you very natural fairy-tale like glow.They're very shiny and the colors aren't overpowering,even the ones that look near black in the tube come out a lovely berry color.I have very pale skin and the majority of colors in this line look lovely on me.You might want to pass on these if you prefer a more dramatic look.
