Eyeliner -MAC - Fluidline Eyeliner Gel Blue Peep [DISCONTINUED]
jkpetite 2/25/2008 11:11:00 PM
i just got this from CCO this weekend and i love it!!!! i have really oily eyelids and everything i try smudges. i had read the raves on MUA and other boards about this so i decided to give it a try. totally worth it! it's stayed for over 11 hours and counting with no smudging or running. the color is amazing against my fair skin and hazel eyes. i used a light peachy gold shadow as a base from lid to brow and then used an angle liner brush to line my eyes and the color was just enough. i want to get more in Blacktrack, Rich Ground, Shade, and Dipdown.

Mascara -Maybelline - XXL Curl Power
jkpetite 1/13/2008 12:05:00 AM
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this mascara. i actually prefer this over my higher end brands. the product makes my lashes ridiculously long, full, voluminous, colorful, and thanks to the curved brushes on both ends, i don't need my lash curler when i use this mascara. i always loved the Intense XXL and this doesn't disappoint either..................

Mascara -Maybelline - Full 'N Soft Mascara

so after continuing to use this, i've changed my mind. it's become one of my favs. IMO, it's better than Bad Gal Lash by Benefit. I get more volume and length. it's a keeper, for sure.

Scrubs -Olay - Regenerist Microdermabrasion and Peel Kit
jkpetite 12/21/2007 5:45:00 PM
i bought this b/c one of my best girlfriends recommended it to me when i complained that philosophy's version is too expensive ($60 is pricey). so i when i saw 2 of these kits for $20 @ costco i had to get it. LOVE LOVE LOVE. i use it twice a week, religiously. i have seen some very noticeable improvements in my skin. my acne scars are fading and i see less and less fine lines. my skin always looks and feels so polished after i use this product. i'm a HUGE olay girl - my mom used oil of olay her whole life and is 67 but doesnt look a day over 55 so i'm sold. i highly recommend this. IMO, it's just as good as philosophy for more than half the price.....

Fragrances -Clean - Warm Cotton
jkpetite 12/12/2007 12:33:00 AM
this has now become my HG fragrance. it is what it says it is - CLEAN. its so fresh and refreshing. i brought this on a trip to vegas recently and everyone kept saying how good i smelled and kept asking what i was wearing. given how much i like this scent, i am going to have to see how the others in this line smell. if you like smelling clean, like you just stepped out of the shower, give this a try....

Blush -BeneFit Cosmetics - Dallas
jkpetite 12/12/2007 12:31:00 AM
this has become a HG product for me. i've been reading all the rave reviews on it and decided to give it a try. OMG i'm so glad i did. the shade is perfect whether you're fair or have some color to your skin. it's a perfect shade of bronzer and blush. i stopped using all my other blushes and now only use Dallas. i'm so in love!

Mascara -BeneFit Cosmetics - BADgal Lash

i got this with the best of benefit kit b/c i've been wanting to try it as well as dallas. it's ok, not sure what all the rage is about, tho. i guess i was expecting more for the $$. honestly, i can get more volume and length from my $6 maybelline intense xxl mascara. $19 seems a bit much to pay for a mascara that doesn't outperform a $6 one. i won't purchase again.

Bronzers -Physicians Formula - Shimmer Strips - Custom Bronzer Blush and Eye Shadow
jkpetite 8/30/2007 2:00:00 PM
i have this in vegas strip and tried is a bronzer and an eye shadow. i don't foresee myself using it again as a bronzer as it's too shimmery for my face and i really didn't see any bronzing effect. i already have oily skin and the shimmer really magnifies it. HOWEVER, i have used it as an eyeshadow and WOW. the shimmer and intensity of the gold really stands out with a dark liner. i found it great for a highlighter and to put in the inner eye area. i may give it one more try as a bronzer, but i haven't really decided. i'm not really convinced. i'd like to try sunset strip to see if the color payoff is better.

love the effect. will definitely buy again. it really does brighten up the eye area. i used it right above my cheek bone as well and it brightened up my entire face. another staple for the collection. it is a tad pricey but i have a feeling it is so worth it.

Eyes -BeneFit Cosmetics - Big Beautiful Eyes
jkpetite 7/30/2007 6:51:00 PM
so i got this today and i must say, i love the results. the concealer worked out really well. at first glance, it looked dark, but once i put it on, it was perfect. i loved how big my eyes looked just after applying the contour shade. the brushes are fantastic and, true to BeneFit, the packaging is soo cute and convenient. this is going to be a staple in my collection.

Bronzers -New York Color - Bronzing Face Gel
jkpetite 7/25/2007 6:51:00 PM
they need to have something higher than 5 :-) after getting a recommendation for this on another board, i went out and got it. it's less than $3 and it is amazing. i am fair but i like having a bit of a bronze glow and this gives me that hint of color i like. it's very light and blends very easily. there's no shimmer, which i love, and my skin has been accepting to it (not easy, i was waiting for a breakout from it). i will stay stocked up on this.

Blush -Everyday Minerals - Sunday Brunch
jkpetite 7/25/2007 6:44:00 PM
this blush is HIGHLY pigmented so a little goes a very long way. once i figured out the amount to use, i immediately fell in love. it gives a nice, rosy glow and it stays all day. just remember, HIGHLY PIGMENTED - so be careful not to overdo it.
