Eyeliner -Clarins - Waterproof Eye Pencil
Xxkonixx 1/24/2007 5:41:00 PM
best waterproof eye liner i've used...........i know it's a little bit on the dry side......but hey if u want something to stay on ur face......it just can't be all creamy and smooth at the same time.......you can't have everything......for people with greasy eye lid........you have to try this........tthis works better than the one from dior........

Loose Powders -Chanel - Poudre Universal Libre
Xxkonixx 12/21/2006 11:32:00 PM
i've been always using physician's formular mineral loose powder, but it's oil controlling power was very poor.....so i give chanel a try because i 've been using their foundation and the double matte powder for touch up and liked them very much.......i'm pretty happy with their loose powder....it keeps my face shine free for several hours......and great finish.....no heaviness or fine lines after reapplying...it gives a natural glowy finish...i don't even need to use oil blotting papers anymore.......happy happy happy........i'm between NC 30 and NC 35 and i bought natural....prefect match........

Concealers -Make Up For Ever - Extreme Camouflage Cream
Xxkonixx 9/18/2006 6:14:00 PM
this is an okay concealer for me over all......but i found my old mac concealer still covers better on my acne spots......and this concealer takes me too long to blend.....i have to add an least 5 mins to my daily make up routine to use this....and with this price i can buy twice of the mac ones that will last me for liked two years......but i gotta say the staying power is really good.....however, it's going back to sears and i think i will just stick with my mac one for a long long time..........

Blush -Anna Sui - Face Color in 302
Xxkonixx 7/12/2006 1:33:00 AM
i'm usually extremely easy in blushes......but for this one i dun really like it that much........i personaly only want a blush to give me a healthy glow.....but i gota say the color is kinda awkward for me maybe coz i'm a bit on the tan side....and also the sparkles are way too big for everyday use...........they need to make their powder finer for the face..........just by looking at it i can see the size of the each powder............but love the package........probably gonna put it aside or give it someone else.............

Powder -Physicians Formula - Mineral Wear Talc-Free Mineral Loose Powder
Xxkonixx 7/5/2006 8:17:00 PM
after reading all these great reviews i decide to give it a try.........thankx to people who put their color as referencing that i am able to pick the right color for myself........i'm NC30-35 and using buff beige in this........i just bought it today and i tried it on rite after getting home.....and i'm very impressed with the way it makes me look.......my skin tone is definately more even and it feels great......and i agree with some of you that say you can dab this on problem areas as a concealer.......love ittttt......i'll have to say it even makes me look better than using chanel's double perfection powder foundation which cost three four times as much....i'm really glad that i tried it............thanx to makeup alley.....This is also great for touch up if you have oily skin liked me and any make up will slide off your t-zone.....with a light dust with this you will look liked you just freshly apply ur makeup.......i've always brought it with me to weddings while being the bridesmaid and have to have stable makeup through out the day for pictures.......

Mascara -Fasio - Power-Stay Mascara 3D Curl Long in Black
Xxkonixx 6/8/2006 2:06:00 AM
i try this because a lot of people are sayin that it's good.......but i'm kinda disappointed because it clumps alot and the extensions keep falling off on my face throughout the day............and it actually smudge a little bit after several hours.....so i have gone back to my super mascara from anna sui..............

Eye Makeup Remover -Lancome - Bi-Facil Double Action Eye Make-up Remover
Xxkonixx 5/16/2006 3:41:00 PM
i bought this when i was deperately in need of a good waterproof macara remover......it works great for doing this until i found out that i can use something much cheaper with better result......which is the Pond s makeup removal cold cream.......when you work the cream on your eyes it doesn t burn at all.....and because it s in cream form, it is so much more gentle when you work it on your lashes.........when i was using the lancome makeup remover i still lost one or two lashes once in a while.......but for the cream i haven t had that problem at all........can t afford losing lashes coz they take a long long time to grow backkk...........

Makeup Brushes -MAC - 194 concealer brush
Xxkonixx 5/7/2006 2:00:00 AM
this brush is okay for minor concealing purpose liked undereye...if you need good coverage for acne marks and stuffs this just doesn't do the job.......i'm a serious concealer user but this brush just doesn't keep the concealer at where it needs to be concentrate on.........now i only use this for my undereye since it's really soft but off course i still need my fingers to blend them in after..... i use this brush is mainly for the purpose of not touching the concealer directly with my fingers....for my face i use the sephora concealer brush which is really good...UPDATE: this is a by far a much better brush than the one from sephora.......the one from sephora is too big and won't allow me to concentrate on the spot that i really need to cover........while the mac one is in a perfect size and the taxture is super soft really allow me to put on concealer without much effort............
