Lipstick -MAC - Satin Lipstick in Underworld
lauralikes 2/6/2009 3:47:00 PM
i lvoe this color. i really love all dark lip colors. the thing about reds or dark colors is that you need a perfect canvas, so dont expect to pull it off if your lips arent prepared. especially since this color is a satin, you have to try a little harder to get that perfect lip since it can come out blotchy. the color is GORGEOUS

Eye Shadow -MAC - Pigment in Dark Soul
lauralikes 1/18/2009 5:24:00 PM
I love this pigment, but it isnt too blendable. It's of course super pigmented and rich in it's unique blend of colors but I use it to pack on the lid, not really for the crease cuz it's a bit hard to blend. BUT packed on the lid it looks gorgeoussssss, especially if you have a funky cream color/paint pot/shadestick/whatever to prime the lid.

Pressed Powders -Clinique - Stay-Matte Sheer Pressed Powder
lauralikes 1/18/2009 5:12:00 PM
This will always be a basic powder that I keep for my less glam days. It lasts forever (mine last for like 1year) and I have repurchased for 5 years now. I love my mac studio fix powder but that's more for going out. my clinique powder is buildable (but never as buildable as SF which is fine with me for the more laid back days)

Eye Shadow -MAC - Pigment in Pink Opal
lauralikes 1/17/2009 8:27:00 PM
GREAT for highlighting in the eye area just not on the cheek. I feel like it "stains" the cheek so you can totally see the area where i put it (and blended) and then the area that doesnt have product, and that's like my pet peeve! haha but for the eye area...omgomgo. looks so amazing and funky! very unique pigment.

Misc Beauty Tools -MAC - Foundation Pump
lauralikes 1/17/2009 8:17:00 PM
i love it, super practical and clean and all that good stuff, what bothers me is it's existance. MAC sells this because they obviously know that the ones without pump are very messy, yet the continue to do them thay way in order for us to spend 4 extra bucks... that annoys me.

Blush -NARS - Creme Blush in Cactus Flower
lauralikes 1/16/2009 9:52:00 PM
I love this blush! the texture is amazinggg and I find that dabbing my 168 in this lightly gives enough pigmentation for the cheek. I hate readinng reviews saying "i give this 3 stars because it didnt look good with my skin tone". helllo? there is a reason you try things on! The quality is amazing, the pigmentation is great, the shimmer/glitter is minor. it's a freakiing good blush.

Eye Shadow -Vincent Longo - Wet diamond eye shadow
lauralikes 1/13/2009 9:46:00 PM
wow. i am so dissapointed. I bought this on impulse (i need to stop) and regret it so much.It was suppperrr expensive and sooo not worth it. It barely has pigmentation, all it has is glitter. I dont even know what to do with this, I used it for a highlight on the cheeks, people asked me why I put GLITTER on my face...

Eye Primer -Clinique - Touch Base For Eyes
lauralikes 1/13/2009 6:11:00 PM
I bought this to try it cuz I was bored of my eyeshadow primers (even though you have great primers, you wanna try somethign new, ya know?) so I bought this. a) It primes well the eye but it does add and opaque color so dont exepct it to be invisible. It is like a mac paint. b) The product does dry out but that's if you dont use it frequently AND if it does dry, you can always 'undry' it by putting the container is a glass of hot water or just swirl your finger in the product to warm it up. c) It doesnt last too long and eventually, you can tell it's creasing BUT to do a job for a couple of hours, it works fine. I give it a 3 because for a couple of bucks more, you can get a primer that's wayyy more amazing, but this product isnt all that bad.
