Makeup Brushes -Ecotools - Bamboo 6 Piece Brush Set

Love these brushes! I find myself reaching for them every day! They are extremely soft and do not shed one bit. The travel bag it came with is completely useless (mine already had a small rip in a seam when I purchased it), and all the brushes wouldn't even fit.......Great quality brushes for a great price!

This is my go to mascara, I have repurchased a countless amount of times. It makes my lashes super long,holds curl,and most of all does not flake or look all clumpy. I have tried all types of mascaras, from Maybelline to Dior,and this is by far my favorite.

Horrible color,looks like dried up mud on my nails....very very dull. I couldn't even stand it on my nails before finishing up the pedicure, so I took it off. I love OPI You Don't Know Jacques though

So glad I bought this! I randomly saw the reviews on this and decided to try it! This goes on extremely smooth and sets makeup perfectly. It does not make my face look chalky,cakey,etc....just looks super natural/fresh and the color is just right for me. I bought the hydrating version. Will def repurchase!

Misc Beauty Tools -Shu Uemura - Eyelash Curler

hawaiian_tropic 8/30/2009 2:34:00 PM

Finally purchased this, I have contemplated on getting this for what seems like forever. I have naturally pretty curled lashes so I would tell myself I didn't need it due to that fact and the price.Well the night after I purchased this I got a compliment from my coworker about how pretty my lashes where.I think that confirmed my answer right there!!!! It did make them noticeably curled,fuller, and I felt that the curler was gentle to my lashes too

Crème -Laura Mercier - Silk Creme Foundation
rated 3 of 5
hawaiian_tropic 8/29/2009 1:47:00 PM

I think this in general IS a good foundation, however it wasn't for me and I ended up returning it...The foundation is very easy to blend, does not give a mask like appearance,did not irritate my skin what so ever. BUT by the end of the day my skin seemed kind of greasy (which I never have that problem), and it did not give my skin the look that I have achieved with ds products,etc

I have wanted to get this for a really long time because I am a sucker for cute products, lip products,well a lot of things.Finally got it and I am so glad I did!!! This lip treatment is the creamiest thickest formula I have ever tried, I applied at night and woke up in the morning with it still on and my lips with a noteable softer feeling =). Love it

Love it!!! Bought it on a whim, and so glad I did! It is a great makeup remover, leaving skin soft and not tight/irritated,etc. Will repurchase again,and a little goes a long way.

Never thought I would love a cold cream but I find everything about this product perfect. I was recommended by my family doctor to use a cold cream with a white wash cloth when washing my face, so I randomly picked this one up. I love the scent, the way it makes my face feel,etc.

Conditioner -TiGi - Catwalk - Fashionista Conditioner

LOVE this conditioner! Makes my hair feel baby soft and super shiny. My mom even complimented me on how soft my hair looked right after I started using this. The scent of this conditioner is grape, YUM, and lingers!!! It also reminds me of BS midnight fantasy perfume. All in all this is my favorite conditioner by far, this and the HSH pumpkin mask are my HG's

Styling Products -Jonathan - Silky Dirt

LOVE! I resisted trying Jonathon products for forever(the guy just bugs me), but I finally caved in and got Dirt. And two days later I *had* to get silky dirt! Love the smell, vanilla-ish and for some strange reason reminds me of a cabbage patch kid scent! I put in towel dried hair and also a tiny after I'm done stying. My hair looks smooth and soft and for some reason this and Dirt bring out the blonde highlight color in my hair.

Finally caved in and bought this! I was so proud, I restrained myself for so long, but yeah, of course it didn't last! Bought this last night, used for the first time this morning, and I LOVE it! Love the smell, love the look it gives my hair, love it all, and can see it lasting for a very very long time so the price isn't *as* bad now! Now I want to try Jonathon Silky Dirt.
