Lipstick -MAC - Viva Glam Gaga
xxchinadoll 2/10/2010 9:57:00 PM
I LOVE this colour!!! My boyfriend bought this lipstick for me today when we went to the mall and the instant i saw this colour, I knew it was perfect! I was kind of iffy at first as to whether or not the colour payoff would be nice on me because Lustre's don't usually show up on my lips but this was gave me a nice baby pink colour which is amazing!! I will definitely be buying another one tomorrow when I go in for their new spring forecast line!! I recommend everyone who is a fan of pink to go out and get this before it's gone!!

Lip Treatments -Jack Black - Intense Therapy Lip Balm spf 25
xxchinadoll 2/9/2010 2:08:00 PM
I never thought about getting this since I figured Jack Black was a line for men but the people who worked at Sephora recommended this to me and I'm impressed. The intense therapy part is right because as soon as I put it on my dry winter lips, it instantly felt smoother. It has a nice minty smell and a bit of shine which I love! Add SPF in there and you almost have a perfect product. I say almost because the tube is pretty small and gets lost very easily in my bag. My bf seems to like this product too so I will be buying one for him too!

Lip Treatments -Smith's Rosebud Salve - Smith's Rosebud Salve
xxchinadoll 2/9/2010 2:03:00 PM
I heard a lot of good things about this multi-purpose product. It claims to help chapped lips, cuticles, and even blemishes. I used to use vaseline every night before bed so I wake up with soft mositurized lips, however, I felt vaseline was a little too oily feeling at times so I switched to this. This gives my lips a nice rosy colour and my lips feel moisturized just after a few minutes of putting it on. I don't know if I'd use it on my blemishes though because its oily. The smell isn't that great when you put it on but overall this is a great product.

Palettes -Urban Decay - Book of Shadows - Alice in Wonderland [DISCONTINUED]
xxchinadoll 2/9/2010 1:56:00 PM
I had been waiting for this for months! As soon as I heard about this palette I called my local sephora every week and I would always ask about it when I went into sephora. I couldn't order this product on urban decays website since I live in canada and they do not deliver here :( as soon as I saw it on sephora's website my bf ordered it for me. I got it in the mail a week later (the same day it came into canadian stores) and I was in loveee. I was so happy because this was my first book of shadows. I have tried a few colours already and it was my first time using the primer potion. The colour payoff for the shadows are just as great as my MAC shadows. For the price, I think it's pricey but well worth it because you get their top selling eyeshadows (just renamed to suit the characters in alice in wonderland), two of their eyeliners (the black which is a best seller) and a small tube of their well known primer. I loved the primer so much that I purchased the bigger tube as well since its usually sold out.

Lip Treatments -Guerlain - Guerlain Lip Lift
xxchinadoll 2/9/2010 1:47:00 PM
I had been eyeing this product for a while but I thought I'd finish my M.A.C. Prep+prime lip first. My bf got me a sephora giftcard so I decided why wait and got it. I love this product! It is quite expensive but I believe it is worth the price. My lips are very pigmented so when I use this alone, it lightens my lip colour and gives it a nude look. When I use lipstick over it, my lips look very smooth and full which I love! It has a sort of waxy feel to it but I will definitely use this as my lip primer from now on.

Eyeliner -Bare Escentuals - Buxom Lashliner -- Leatherette
xxchinadoll 2/9/2010 1:37:00 PM
I have never used a gel liner before so I bought this with the lash liner brush. The brush liner applied the gel onto my eyes very smoothly but the one thing I didn't like about the eyeliner is the staying power. I would have preferred it to be waterproof but it's okay I just bring a pencil liner with me when I'm out. As for the lash growth part, it has definitely strengthened my lashes because when I go to remove my eye make-up, no lashes fall out unlike before. It has helped my bottom lashes grow a bit longer and my upper lashes appear a bit longer too! I have been using it for nearly a month now and it looks like I barely touched the product. I wish the Canadian sephora's carried more colours but this is something I would definitely repurchase again.

Bronzers -NARS - Laguna
xxchinadoll 2/9/2010 1:24:00 PM
I have light skin and I had never tried a bronzer before because I always thought it'd make my face darker then the rest of my body. I heard a lot of great things about this bronzer so I decided to give it a try. I love it! I have been using thing for almost a week now and it gives my face a nice even glow. It also adds more colour to my pale complexion which is great! This is definitely a product that can work for anyone.

Blush -MAC - Satin Blush - Well Dressed
xxchinadoll 2/1/2010 12:49:00 AM
This was one of the first colours I got started off with when I bought my blush palette. I got this as well as Pinch O' Peach and Pink Swoon and I have to say that this is my favourite out of the three!! This is one of M.A.C.'s staple colours and I think it would work well on everyone!

Blush -NARS - Deep Throat
xxchinadoll 2/1/2010 12:47:00 AM
I love this colour!! It is the perfect pink for my cheeks. I have Orgasm but I find this shows up better on my fair skin and it is very buildable. The only thing I dislike about NARS packaging is how it can look dirty after a short period of time but that's not a very big deal.

Brows -Rimmel - Professional Eyebrow Pencil
xxchinadoll 1/26/2010 12:53:00 PM
I have this in black and dark brown. I find that the black works pretty well on me (I have black hair and light skin). I find that the dark brown one comes off a little red but if you smooth it out well enough then it looks fine. I love how it has a brush at the end. Definitely something to have in your make-up bag

Lipstick -Maybelline - Color Sensational - Pink Please ] ] [DISCONTINUED]
xxchinadoll 1/26/2010 12:28:00 PM
This is one of my favourite pinks! The colour comes off as a nice pale pink on my high pigmented lips. The only reason why I didn't give this a 5 is because after a while of wear, it tends to get very icky on your lips. The packaging is nice because its a dark red so its easy to locate in your makeup bag

Lip Treatments -Korres - Lip Butter - Jasmine
xxchinadoll 1/26/2010 12:20:00 PM
It took me forever to find this product because the Sephora near my house is always sold out! The great thing about this product is it's paraben-free and it glides on soo smoothly! It just melts on your lips and its a great gloss over lipstick. I'm not sure if I'd buy this product again because it doesn't really make a difference on my lips and the annoying thing is the packaging. It comes in a small jar and it just seems unsanitary when you keep dipping your finger into it.
