Foundations -Maybelline - New Instant Age Rewind
jatkins 9/15/2011 7:40:00 PM
Really good stuff. The packaging is ok. To get the first application, I had to turn the dial a couple dozen times. This stuff is really pigmented, so a little goes a long way. There's tons of product too! Be sure to buy a shade lighter than your natural color.

Hair Styling Tools -Conair - Wave Clips
jatkins 9/15/2011 11:36:00 AM
Love them. They make the perfect waves without having to use a heat tool. If you want, you can use your blow dryer, but you can always just let your hair air dry with these. You get 12 clips. So, if your hair is medium to long length, you might want to purchase 2 packs. I have medium length hair, and it takes the length of 2 clips to do each section of hair. Here's the info about them from Ulta.com •Easy to use •Clip & style •Quick drying. Directions: 1. Apply setting lotion or gel to damp hair. Depending on thickness of the hair, part into one inch sections or less. If the hair is thin, part into approximately one and a half inch sections. 2. Open the wave clips by gently releasing the two small tabs at the base of the clips. Slide the open clip over hair, release handle and press gently to lock the tabs, Be sure to leave a small space, about 1/2 inch between each clip to create continuous looking waves. Leave the Wave Clip on until hair is completely dry. Air dry, or use a blow dryer to speed up the process. 3. Remove clip once hair is dry. Finish by finger combing and mist with hair spray.

Polishes -Rimmel - 330 Posh Pink
jatkins 9/11/2011 5:04:00 PM
This is a very bright pink (not neon but close). These Rimmel polishes have really thick brushes that hold a lot of product. So, it is easy to pick up too much product. However, once you get the hang of it, this brush makes it really easy and smooth to apply nail polish. I highly recommend Rimmel Lasting Finish PRO nail polishes....especially this color.

Love this matte barbie pink!!!!! You can these for $2.00 at Ulta right now. One coat does the trick! With a top coat, it lasts a week and a half without any chipping.

Polishes -Rimmel - 60 Second Nail Polish - Pulsating
jatkins 9/10/2011 1:28:00 PM
Fuschia with a purplish blue sheen. You need 2-3 coats for full coverage. Otherwise, it's kind of a dark sheer color (if that makes sense). Too bright for my hands, but I love it on my toes.

This is a pale pink with a lot of sheen. I love it. One coat gives you the full color. I am loving Ulta nail polishes. With a top coat it lasts for a week without chipping.

Polishes -OPI - Crown me already!
jatkins 9/10/2011 1:15:00 PM
Best glitter polish ever. I want the whole line now. I love the different sized glitters. One coat is a lot of glitter. Two coats gives an awesome foil affect. I put this on over Ulta's Fresh Water Pearl and it gave it a slightly pinkish tint. Love, love, love it!

Polishes -OPI - Silver Shatter
jatkins 9/10/2011 1:12:00 PM
I like it, but it's a little too metalic for me. It only looks good over dark bold colors. I tried it over a bright pink at first and it looked really muddy. Then I tried it over a sky blue and it looked like a total mess. Over dark red, it look cool, but it's just not my tastes. I will use it again, but I don't see my self reaching for it very often. However, I really want the gold one now!

Polishes -OPI - Turquoise Shatter
jatkins 9/10/2011 1:09:00 PM
I absolutely love this polish. The color is gorgeous. I recommend putting it on over white polish if you want the crackle affect to really stand out. Over white, the color is a bit brighter too. I just wish it were a bit easier to apply. The consistency is kind of clumpy at times. Make sure you shake it up well and apply quickly.

Palettes -Too Faced - Romantic Eye
jatkins 9/2/2011 8:31:00 PM
I absolutely love this. This is the perfect selection of colors for green eyes. Maybe that's why they have one on the cover. I have all of the two faced pallets and this one is by far my favorite. If you have anything but extremely fair skin, this should work great for you.

Mascara -Physicians Formula - custom eye enhancing mascara duo- green eyes
jatkins 1/5/2011 3:38:00 PM
Love it! One end is an awesome thickening black mascara. The other is a light kelly green. The duo truly enhances my green eyes without my mascara looking like green halloween makeup. Both colors can be used together or separately. Love it.

Eyeliner -Physicians Formula - custom eye enhancing gel creamliner- green eyes
jatkins 1/5/2011 3:29:00 PM
I love this. Can't believe I am the first to review this! This is a three set of gel eyeliner colors: black, purple and green. The colors are highly pigmented, gorgeous and extremely long wearing. I almost didn't get this set because I am obsessed with the black and brown loreal HIP cream eyeliners. These ones are even better and just as long if not longer wearing. Loreal's egg plant color does not have a leg to stand on next to this beautiful purple. Love these!

Lip Gloss -NYX - NYX 129 Beige
jatkins 1/5/2011 3:17:00 PM
I bought this based on the color through the packaging. Good thing I didn't go by the name. This is definitely not a beige. The pink is so pretty. It just might replace all my nude lipsticks.

Treatments -It's a 10 - Miracle Leave in Product
jatkins 10/18/2010 7:35:00 PM
Love it! It's $36 for the large bottle. That seems crazy until you try this amazing stuff! This is the best hair stuff ever. It makes my hair extra shinny, extra soft, and it even feels a bit thicker and has a tiny bit of hold. This is probably my favorite hair product ever and I've tried a lot! Even if your hair is not damaged, it will make it even better.
