Masks -St. Ives - Peel-Off Hydroxy Masque [DISCONTINUED]
CarolynF 2/26/2004 8:09:00 PM
This could be great IF you don't have acne prone skin. This brought EVERYTHING to the surface of my skin. Things that may never even come to the surface came up. Serious zits!! YUCK! I rather take my chances and deal as they come. One or two zits to the surface is great, but MANY....no way!

Lipstick -Estee Lauder - Pure Color Lipstick- Rose Tea
CarolynF 2/5/2004 7:36:00 PM
This is a gorgeous rosy/pinky brown lipstick that smells like fig. The color is gorgeous on me and is definately MLBB. Looks great alone or with a lipgloss. My favorite is with Chanel blizzard. I only wish it would last longer on my lips.

Masks -Pro Activ - Refining Mask
CarolynF 1/31/2004 10:25:00 PM
This is a sulfur mask and if you skin is sensitive in any way shape or form....stay away! While I really love most ProActiv products the sulfur mask did not clear my skin at all and a dau pr two after application peeled like mad. My 12 year old tried this as well and it did not work for her either, although the other proactiv products do. Thumbs down!

Lipstick -Mary Kay - Luscious Color Lipsticks
CarolynF 1/23/2004 9:17:00 AM
A wonderful moisturizing formula from Mary Kay. I love their regular lipstiks but the luscious color are just plain better! Moisturizing with a nice sheen to them. I have juicy peach which is a light shimmery peach shade. Great alone or over a liner. Works great under lipglosses as well. I just ordered 2 more and cannot wait to try them!

Lips -Mary Kay - Signature Lip Outliner Pencil
CarolynF 1/17/2004 5:15:00 PM
This puts any clear lipliner I have used in the past to shame!! If you don't want to wear a lipliner and don't want your lipstick to run off your lips, this product is for you. It is like a clear lipstick that you outline your mouth in. Works great! You cannot see it and it works sooooo much better than anything I have used before. Thumbs up Mary Kay!!

Lotions/ Creams -Bath and Body Works - Gardenia Lily Body Lotion
CarolynF 1/11/2004 7:39:00 PM
Gardenia, lily, jasmine and muguet. I am not a big fan of white flowers alone. If you like gardenia, I would think this would definately be for you. I received this as a Christmas gift and while I will use it up, it is not something I would have chose for myself.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Coco Framboise
CarolynF 1/10/2004 9:28:00 AM
This smells great but is VERY dark in the tube and I had high hopes when applying it, but I looked like a hooker. If you are fair or light skinned, this may not work for you. I could only wear this if it is night time and I am going to be somewhere where it is DARK and that is wearing a light lippie under it.

Lipstick -MAC - Mac for Playboy Bunny Pink
CarolynF 1/10/2004 9:24:00 AM
I finally caved and ordered this when a wonderful MUA'er said her MAC still had them. It is a cool toned pink. Not too over the top pink. Very flattering to most I would assume. I ordered 2 and I am sooo glad I did!

CarolynF 1/9/2004 9:23:00 AM
This is described as beautiful and mysterious, jasmine blooms only during the full moon, filling the air with intoxicating fragrance. This is a nice jasmine scent that smells pretty and girly. It is moisturizing as well. Thumbs up!

Gels/Soaps -Bath and Body Works - Red Currant & Thyme Creamy Shower Gel
CarolynF 1/9/2004 9:20:00 AM
Black tea, sweet red currants, and zest thyme. That is the notes in the red currant and thyme tea. It smells fresh and invigorating to me. Great for putting me in an "awake" mood or just generally lifting my spirits. I will be returning to this scent!

Palettes -Cat Cosmetics - Six Kitten Palette
CarolynF 1/7/2004 6:22:00 PM
Woo-hoo!! This is one of those purchases I have been contemplating for a while and could not be more thrilled with the outcome. This is the best palette I could ever hope for!! I never thought I would like roar lipgloss since I normally cannot wear reds....WRONG! It is gorgeous! The cat and mouse glosses are fabulous! Whiskers blush has an awesome color payoff in a fabulous peachy pink shade. The bronzer is wonderful too! The eyeshadows are superb quality and the neutral shades can really dress my eyes up or keep them casual. LOOOOOVE this!

Lotions/ Creams -Bath and Body Works - Moonlit Path Body Cream
CarolynF 1/7/2004 12:04:00 PM
Lavender, roses, violets, and musk is the scent. Sounds nice but the musk was sooooo overpowering and in a masculine way. I got this for Christmas from my Mom so I will "try" to use it up, but I don't enjoy the scent at all. No headache from it and if you like unisex smelling scents, you will like this.

Lip Gloss -Revlon - Super Lustrous Pearl Plum
CarolynF 1/5/2004 5:27:00 PM
This is a very pretty shade of plum with a hint of violet/red tone to it. Very close to Lancome Beach Plum JT. Has some shimmer and I don't detect any scent. Very pretty and shiney!! Does not last very long since it is a thinner, not sticky gloss but the texture and color is great!

Polishes -OPI - Movin' Out
CarolynF 1/4/2004 6:00:00 PM
Appears much darker in the bottle than on the nails, which is normally not the case for most OPI nailpolishes. I applied 3 coats of this but the ending result was a light to medium lavender shade that was beautiful and flattering to my pale hands. This is my favorite OPI collection yet!
