Moisturizers -Aveeno - Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer spf15

I really like this moisturizer, especially for the price. The soy seems to 'calm down' my crazy, cystic-acne prone skin. no problems with breakouts, and I get a lot of compliments when I use it. Also like using it with foundations to make tinted moisturizers. Will continue to repurchase unless I stumble upon something better!

definitely comparable to the SK at twice the price, and since it would probably go bad before I finish even this small jar, I like the compact packaging. i use it over the pressed powder when i am feeling too 'matte'.

Eye Shadow -Black Radiance - Shadow Creme

I was a little bit skeptical of this product at first since it is a drugstore cream eyeshadow, and also because it comes in a wand-style tube instead of a squeeze-tube. But the reviews are right on, this stuff is great. The colors are also very fun (I have halo, a very warm golden-coppery color). If you love MAC paints, Lancome Color Dose, etc. you really should check these out.

Self Tanners -Banana Boat - Sunless Tanning Spray Soft Medium Blend

it's a middle-of the road self tanner. I like the color it gives, but the mousse with color guide is better for a flawless application. lasts a decent time, can be extended with use of lotion/cocoa butter.

Seems pretty substandard to me...very wet going on, didn't seem to volumize or lengthen very much. tossed it.

smells SO soapy when first applied, dries down to a nondescript grapefruit (reminds me of crabtree & evelyn's old grapefruit scent). Not that great.

very pretty and easy to use. A great bargain, the shimmer is noticeable but not over the top.

Eyeliner -Rimmel - Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil in Jet Black
rated 5 of 5

you can't beat the price of Rimmel products, especially for the quality you get. This is one of the only drugstore liners I can wear (prestige being the other). and sable brown is very pretty with my hazel eyes. It's more dramatic so I save this one for night time and going out. sharpens easily, and blends like a charm!

my all time favorite, desert island shadow. I think it works with most skintones and is just so flattering! a little bit dramatic but mostly just very pretty. I can't see why anybody doesn't need one :)

Lip Gloss -Bonne Bell - Lip Burst

I like these a lot, they are not like my other lipglosses because they are very slick, not sticky and seem to be moisturizing. they also taste quite nice!

Ok, it's sweet. Really sweet. So if you don't like that, you won't like Pink Sugar. I love it! As soon as I finish my Hanae Mori (my current "sweet scent" I'm buying this.

Eyeliner -L'Oreal - Line Intensifique in Black Mica
rated 5 of 5
epheme 2/26/2004 10:34:00 PM

Love this product, and this shade is no exception! not intensely metallic but with a bit of shimmer, so it's definitely not matte and boring. the greatest drugstore liquid liner by far. lasts superbly.
