Blush -Stila - Convertible Color Gerbera

I very much prefer this to Lillium. This shows up a nice fresh peachy glow on me without looking too orange or fake. I really like this CC. Blends well of course and doesn't break me out, which is a good thing. I bought the CC since I wanted a multi-use product. However I'm really disappointed in this. While it is delightful as a blush, as a lip colour, it's not only a NUDE, it's a DEAD ASHY NUDE! I won't get this again, there are other equally nice peach cream blushes that are much cheaper. Packaging is good, slim and compact and has a nicely sized mirror.

Blush -Stila - Convertible Color Lillium
rated 2 of 5

This is a pretty colour. Gives a very natural glow-from-within flush but this seems to blend a little too well into my skin...so it's natural alright but why am I paying so much for something that doesn't really show? I bought this because I was looking for a multi-use product. There is no way I'm using Lillium as a lip colour, it's too milky and chalky and accentuates every single flake that my naked eye can't see! Horrendous! I'm not getting this again, not when there are other much prettier pinks out there! Packaging's great, slim compact with a decently sized mirror that's great for touch-ups. FYI, I'm a Stila C, GA #LSF5

Blush -Stila - Cream Blush

Stila's powder blushes are so fine it feels also creamy! Obviously it blends like a dream. I love Cream, it's one of my faves. It's a great flattering pink with peach/brown undertones that makes me look naturally pretty.

Blush -Kesalan Patharan - Face colour

This is so densely pigmented, a little goes a long way! I've got #17 which is a bright bright cool pink and although it look scary in the pot, it gives a very pretty, fresh and vibrant look. Pretty good stuff KP! I'm getting more of these!

I was introduced to the world of KP e/s by the loveliest posters in another beauty forum. I was wowed by all the beautiful pics put up by the girls there wearing KP e/s! The KP trios are wonderfully pigmented, go on smoothly and doesn't crease on mye! The colours are awesome. I'm definitely going to get more!

Liquid -Giorgio Armani - Luminous Silk Foundation
rated 4 of 5

Pretty slick packaging for a foundation. Love the looks and the pump dispenser. I got this in LSF#5 which fits fine, although it may be a little too dark on extra pale days but otherwise, I think it fits me perfectly. Love the way it looks sheer yet it's buildable. Gives great coverage despite the sheerness and the glow and radiance is unbelievable! At my age, anything that gives great glow and radiance is a HUGE BONUS! However since it goes on so evenly and looks so un-cakey and natural despite layering, it's easy to go overboard and apply too much. I really like this foundation. Until now, I haven't really found a foundation that I actually ENJOY APPLYING! I do have oily skin though so I need to blot quite often. Funnily enough, because I have combo-oily skin, I prefer LUMINOUS finishes so that when my OILY areas shine, the Contrast isn't so great and noticeable to the DRIER and therefore MATTE areas of my face.

Highlighters -Becca - Loose Shimmer Powder
rated 4 of 5
blushed 6/20/2003 4:34:00 AM

After having used lots of shimmer sticks, creams and powders, I've hit the jackpot! I got this in Nymph, loose powder form. It is just a whitish-translucent shade that goes on really natural, adds no colour but imparts beautiful believable radiance. This non-shade is perfect since it can be used with any colours; helps to make my matte blushes look shimmery, or highlights my cheekbones, brows, collarbones, tops of my shoulders.

Loose Powders -Becca - Becca Sesame Powder

Loveliest finely milled powder. They have great colour selections and there's bound to be one that'll fit Perfectly! I'm not buying the TLC Banane again! This is the only powder that doesn't make flakey spots look terrible like all powders tend to do. I am so in love with this

Eye Shadow -Stila - Banana Daquiri Trio
rated 4 of 5

This trio looks dull but that's because it is supposed to give a neutral eye look. I can build it up for nights out or use it very sheer for the day.

Eye Shadow -Stila - Peach Daquiri Trio

This works really well on me. It brightens up my eye area without obvious shimmer and blends really well on my light-to-medium complexion. Doesn't look too orange on me, think this is great for girls with warm tones. I don't like the Cabana design though and the paper packaging is really cheap. Would've expected better packaging for the price.
