Lotions/ Creams -Victoria's Secret - Sexy Little Things Noir Scented Body Lotion
machochick 9/16/2011 6:01:00 PM
I was opting to buy the Bombshell lotion, but got to try this, and this was definitely the winner! I love it! It's very sexy in a very subtle way ;) I also got the body mist and i love the combination. The scent lasts all day and it's very feminine and definitely a TEASE! Will repurchase :)

Fragrances -Ralph Lauren - Ralph
machochick 9/16/2011 5:56:00 PM
One of my top 5 perfume. It has this fresh summer scent. It may come too strong if sprayed too much, so a bit is enough. It lasts all day. I got this as a gift and receive 2 bottles, I finished the first one in a year and I'm half way on the 2nd :)

One of my top 5 perfume! Very romantic scent. It's on the floral side but not too strong. It's feminine and subtle. I got this as a gift and will consider getting it to give as a gift.

Fragrances -Dolce & Gabbana - Light Blue
machochick 9/16/2011 5:49:00 PM
I like it! It has this "fresh" scent. I got 2 bottles as a gift and I emptied both. However, I got tired of it, so I'm not looking forward receiving another bottle :P But if you're looking for something new to try or something to give as gift, try this one. you'll never go wrong :)

Fragrances -Coty - Harajuku Lovers - Baby
machochick 9/16/2011 5:44:00 PM
I got this as a Valentine's gift from hubby. I love the smell! It's kind of baby powder-ish...maybe that's why they named it Baby? :) I think, it's on the "fresh" type of scent. I prefer florals but I like this one too. I also love the packaging! So cute! I still keep it as a dresser display along with my other perfumes. However, I find it pricey for the amount of product you'll get. I thought it'll be as big as the figure b/c of the size of the bottle...but it's not. And it only lasts about less than 3 months with everyday use. The smell isn't that strong, so I tend to spray more. I still want to get those limited edition ones for collection purposes. But for practicality...I'm not thar eager to purchase.

Lipstick -Tarte - Natural Lip Stain with LipSurgence in Moody
machochick 9/16/2011 5:35:00 PM
I got this in deluxe size as a freebie, in color MOODY. I was skeptical on lip stains because nothing really last that long on me. I've tried lots already (drugstores to high-end). Since it was free, I got to try it and to my surprise, loved it! It is long wearing, the color frightened me at first, but it was a really nice reddish color, it works as a lip pencil AND lip stain. Easy to apply. It's very moisturizing too! I usually have dry chapped lips and I always bring and have to put on lip balm several times during the day. But with this lip stain, it keeps it soft and moisturized. I only have to swipe it in the morning and will leave my lips look fresh til noon. I only need to apply after lunch and I'm good until working hours :) Will definitely buy the full size and try other colors :) I minus a star b/c of the price :(

Palettes -Coastal Scents - 78 Piece Makeup Palette
machochick 9/16/2011 5:28:00 PM
I have this and the Ultra Shimmer 88 palette and I rarely use both items, I have to give them away. here's why: I love the packaging and how affordable it is. I got this thinking I can wear all the colors...but nope. I only use a couple of them and also use the darkest color for eyeliner with a wet brush. I don't even use the blushes. I tried, but I reach for my separate blush instead. If you love to play with colors, then you might like this. Especially for beginners, for the price, you can get e/s, eyeliner and blush. Also, I need a primer or else, the colors won't show and will not last me the whole day.

Palettes -Coastal Scents - Ultra Shimmer 88 eye shadow palette
machochick 9/16/2011 5:21:00 PM
I bought this because of the reviews on youtube. I was originally planning to get the 88 original palette but they were out of stock, so I settled for this Ultra Shimmer 88 palette instead. PROS: - price is great with that many colors in a palette - I like the compact, very slim and easy to store - lots of colors & very pigmented CONS: - too shimmery for everyday use - I need an eye primer for this to last all day - the e/s pan for each color is too small...about the size of a dime Overall, I'm not a fan of shimmers (that's just me) so I only use this for party, going out late nights, and even halloween makeup. But for everyday use, I skip using this. I don't reach for this palette anymore that I have to give it away to a friend.

Eyeliner -Urban Decay - 24-7 Glide on eye pencil in Yeyo
machochick 9/16/2011 5:13:00 PM
Color: YEYO I bought this to use for my lower lash line if I'm doing smokey eyes, or just to add some pop for my tired looking eyes. It does open up my eyes when I use this on my lower lash line. I like it at first but later on, I find it glittery, and I'm looking for more natural color or similar color to my lashline (flesh maybe?). After I'm done with this, I'm going to get another color for my lower lashline. But overall, it's a great buy. It's waterproof and hard to take off, even when I'm using makeup removers. I will try to take it off before going to bed, and I can still see some product left overs after washing my face and in the morning also.

Eyeliner -Make Up For Ever - Aqua Eyes Light Brown 19L
machochick 9/16/2011 5:07:00 PM
Got this on 19L. I've heard it's the "true brown" among the other colors. I tried it out and fell in love with it. I like it waaay better then my UD 24/7 liners. PROS: - glides on smoothly; soft, so you don't have to go over it again and again just to show the colors, and fill up the entire lash line. - waterproof CONS: - pricey The brown of this is very subtle and I use it for everyday, natural look. No shimmers and have this matte finish. Will buy the black one next.

Liquid -Tarte - ReCreate Anti-Aging Foundation With Wrinkle Rewind Technology SPF 15 
machochick 9/16/2011 4:54:00 PM
I wanted to love this...but I'm not happy with it. I'm not really expecting it to be anti-aging, but I want something with SPF. I'm also using MUFE HD but I want to try something different. So, I got this after reading the reviews and asking opinions. I'm only giving it a star because of the PROS: - natural ingredients - with SPF CONS: - settle on my wrinkles (especially under my eyes). And I don't have that much wrinkles! - seems not to "sink in" and just sitting on top of my skin. My husband even notice it and even told me that my face looks weird. And he leaned closer to look and he said that my new makeup doesn't do justice on my skin. Yikes! I took it off that instant. I think it's a hit or miss. But try it first and see if it'll work on your skin type. I have acne-prone, oily, sensitive skin. But every skin is different so try it and see for yourself.

I have these in: Tipsy, Doll face and Natural Beauty. Everything is matte, no glitters (not a fan). Last all day without touch ups! Colors will work on every skintone. I use it everyday, even without foundation on. Just my sunscreen / moisturizer and this blush, I'm good to go run some errands. :) I have sensitive skin, and prone to acne, this one doesn't make me break out. Happy with the purchase and planning to get all the colors!

Primer/ Corrector -NARS - Pro-Prime Multi-Protect Primer SPF 30 PA+++
machochick 9/16/2011 1:29:00 AM
I was unhappy that NARS discontinued their primer that comes in the white tube. That one worked for me. They suggested this one as a substitute but it broke me out. I have to return it and continue searching for primers...
