Lips -mark - Bee Pouty

I'm on the fence with this product. The pros...I never had a click pen l/g and it's so much fun, it smells exactly like honey, and it left my lips with a wet shiney look. Cons, it smells like honey(on the pro side) BUT it's sticky like one too! It DID NOT plump my lips, imo it gives an ILLUSION of plumps lips but I didn't feel a sting, nothing! The lasting power sucks, in less than 7 mintues I have to re-apply. If and only if this stuff was on sale I would purchase it, other than that I'll find something else.

This a a staple of mine, I have very oily skin. This product get rid of the shine and it actually does refine pores! I apply this before foundation or sometimes I go au-natural and take this tube everywhere I go for spot treatments. Love it, can't live without it, been using it for a little over 3 years now.

Lip Gloss -Urban Decay - XXX Slick Pot Gloss in Sin

Looove this! A staple and HG of mine. I bought this in a smaller version with two other pot glosses (Carney and Wicked) cheap at Marshalls. It has a smooth texture almost like vasaline but no nasty taste (coconuttish), the color complements my blonde hair and when I dust bronzer whoa! LOL. It's a beige, nude color, very shiney. When I run out I'm willing to slurge $$$ for the big one. What I hate about this is the cap, sometimes it's hard to screw in or screw out.

Very "smokey" I like it. I just wear this with black eyeliner and wing it out a bit, wa-la! Not too mention the price, very cheap. I think this is a universal color anyone of any shade can use. I'm PPP with blonde hair and brown eyes

Liquid -Maybelline - Wonder Finish

So far my HG for drugstore foundation. I like the way it leaves a "powder finish", it has SPF 15, won't clog pores, and it didn't cause me to breakout, oh and not too mention the price...what more can a gal want?

Liquid -Estee Lauder - Individualist Natural Finish Makeup [DISCONTINUED]

Been using a sample (Vanilla) and it's ok. It gives a smooth and "natural" look. Pretty pricey ($32) I can get almost the same result with Maybelline's Wonder Finish for half the price.

Fragrances -Elizabeth Arden - Fantasy Britney spears

Oops Britney did it again! Another great smelling perfume, this one even better! Fruity, sensual, warm I love this scent! Like a reviewer said it dries down to something warm, musky. It has a "flirty" theme to it. I use it everyday, to school, to work or on the night out. I love the bottle it's very cute, the box it came with was so adoreable I can't throw it away, and the scent awesome! I'm the kind of gal to change up my perfume, buy a bottle, rave about it, move onto the next best thing...but this one...I might stick with this one for another 3 bottles. I wished I bought the bigger one, I could of, should of but I didn't know I would like it so much. It has a stronge lasting power and the scent is not overwhelming. I can't wait to get to body lotion, and check out the makeup pallette (also the soild perfum compact...what's that about? lol).

Skincare - Face -Pro Activ - 3-Step System
rated 3 of 5
Sweet_and_Tarty 9/16/2005 6:16:00 PM

I had those little, tiny bumps, and before my monthly "friend" I would break out with a few nasty acne, thanks to ProActiv those bumps are gone, more pores are smaller and I don't break out as much as I use to. What I hate about this is I run out of cleanser and left with a lot of toner and some lotion. I don't get the same results as I do if I have no cleanser, lol.

Conditioner -John Frieda - Sheer Blonde Moisturizing Conditioner
rated 5 of 5
Sweet_and_Tarty 9/16/2005 6:04:00 PM

I'm the minority here but the Glistening Perfection Moisturizing conditioner is the best daily conditioner for my blonde locks. It smells like vanilla coconut, left my hair touchably soft and VERY shiney! I use in in conjuction with the Moisturizing shampoo highlight and I have never gotten so many questions about my hair,"Ouuu, your hair is so pretty and shiney...what are you using?"

I'm a "bottled blonde" & this is my HG so far. It smells good, leaves my hair shiny,super bright, & baby soft. I also like the bottle...upside down so every drop is used.
