Lotions/ Creams -The Body Shop - Spiced Vanilla Body Butter

I love the body shop and their body butters. So moisturizing! This one is good for normal to dry skin in my opinion, so not as oily as the other ones. It smells great, but as I used it more and more you know I got a bit tired of it for everyday!

This smells great, it is a very summer/coconut sweet smell. I find it perfect for summer or when you feel the blues! Great gal made it as well, and reasonable price! No cons in my book.

Bath Treatments -LUSH - Melting Marshmallow Moment

GREAT smell, works pretty well. In my opinion gives the perfect amount of moisture on the skin without making hair greasy, after all, it is being used in a bath which might get some on long hair like mine. It is very good but you need to use lot's more than I thought! A good half is sufficient for me personally, I found any less to be not enough!

Masks -LUSH - Cupcake Mask

This mask, is very drying. I have oily skin(not overly so, but still blackheads and redness and pimples in t-zone), but I used this and it made my skin veryyyy dry, it started to flake all over and I think irritated my forehead with tiny bumps all over. I probably overused this? I would recommend for very oily skins and I would probably just get brazened honey next time.. or even catastrophe cosmetic! :)Cupcake smells like chocolate on the other hand.. which is always "sweet" !

These bra's are well made, they don't look flimsy because are well made. They make the best bra's and panties on the market in my opinion. I will always love their scents lotion and makeup as well :)

Eye Shadow -MAC - Dazzlelight

I have officially bought my second one.. I used up the first. I LOVE THIS, it's my perfect highlight NC15 skin.. works soooo well, perfect shimmers/pearl sheen and not actual sparkles which doesn't work at all. Great in tear duct over cheekbones under brow anywhere to highlight!! The veluxe pearl formula is soooo good for soft almost creamy eye shadows that glide so well... it is just perfect for me! :) I definitely recommend it, it's not stark white but still good on fair skin! RAVE review!

Lipstick -MAC - Lustre Lipstick - Pretty Please
rated 4 of 5
gabriellavascocastro 10/28/2010 2:36:00 PM

I kept using up my lipglasses, I needed something for the lips that would last longer than lip gloss and not run outttt!.. so I decided to invest into a lipstick! I bought this color because after trying it on, it was sheer-ish like a lipgloss.. it was the perfect nude on me because I have very non-pigmented lips and it was overall a great pale lip look! I love it! The shimmers are super subtle and pretty! I will re purchase when running out :) it is going to be my nude chapstick that won't run out like my lipglasses do!haha Lasts a decent amount of time and never settles or looks funny after a while like shifting lipsticks or lipsticks that settle into corners/lines/inside of lips! You can apply without looking because it's a lustre and you can just smack lips together to fix up!

I was looking for a blush that they would use on victoria's secret fashion show makeup look lol and posted a picture showing the cheeks! The response was this blush! THEY WERE RIGHT! So perfect with a bronze look! :) Great pigmentation, you don't need to waste and great color! Love it will re-purchase always!

Lip Gloss -MAC - Dazzleglass - Baby Sparks
rated 5 of 5
gabriellavascocastro 10/28/2010 2:23:00 PM

GREAT COLOR.. baby pink with purple blue shimmers that just pop.. PERFECT consistency because it is thick enough to last without worrying about re-applying every time you say a few words and just so utterly unique. It is expensive for the amount of product you receive but if used only when you want a nude lip that is perfect (weekends not weekdays eg.) then it is worthwhile to spend on it!!! :) I love it! Smells awesome like MAC too!

Lip Gloss -MAC - Cremesheen Glass-Fashion Scoop
rated 4 of 5
gabriellavascocastro 10/28/2010 2:20:00 PM

Not too opaque.. great lip gloss.. non sticky! I love the baby pink color and find it very nice when I apply it but it doesn't last very long because for me the fact that it is non sticky means it is going to disappear soon..Expect to re-apply! But the color is great :)! Would repurchase and find it smells amazing like my other MAC lip glosses.

Powder -Cover Girl - TruBlend Microminerals

gabriellavascocastro 10/17/2010 2:00:00 PM

I use this as a bronzer mixed with some darker chocolate eyeshadow pigment.. it sucks as a foundation because it's way too dark (maybe I picked the wrong shade) but for days when i don't want to waste my usual benefit hoola bronzer i use this stuff .. it works out pretty well for a glow if it's picked in a shade or two darker than actual skin tone! ... just a tip for those who find no use and find it orange-y or too dark! :( .. not good though! there is shimmers as well .. but i love glow-pearly shimmers.. i'm crazy :P

Lip Treatments -LUSH - Bubblegum Lip Scrub
rated 5 of 5
gabriellavascocastro 10/11/2010 2:15:00 PM

The point is, you could make any food known to man but we still love takeout. Somebody else makes it, it's yummier, easier, a luxury. This in my opinion, is a great luxury! Sugary treat for the lips, yummy taste, and the oils to moisturize. Winters in Canada can be quite drying on the lips getting at sometimes -40 degree's Celsius... it's freezing.. a lip scrub is a must! You could make this yourself but treats are also nice! Reasonable price.. great smell/taste! :) Happy customer, thank you LUSH.

gabriellavascocastro 10/5/2010 2:02:00 PM

I love how it feels on the skin, and the smell is nice and lemony-not too sickly! Definitely LOVE the gold glitter.. I just keep it in my room before using it as a decoration :P! It is one of those staples that I keep re-purchasing and hope never gets discontinued.. because it's an amazing treat to feel like royalty.. a bath of liquid gold.. yay! :)
