Eyeliner -Clinique - Brush-on cream liner in TRUE BLACK
Amberbock363 2/25/2013 12:36:00 AM
It was not at all what I expected from an "eyeliner" I'd compare it to a mac paint pot it would make a better base. It's easy to get too much I started with a full container and once I built up non patchy color and put a couple swatches on my hand there was a significant dent in my container which I'm also going to post a photo of. The dry down time is sllllllow and it's not waterproof I smudged it 2 min after I applied it with my med shader brush. First swatch was the residue left over from my horrible attempt at my eye the second is layered and the third is one 2. And I also compared it to a paintpot which is not supposed to be opaque in one swipe. Overall patchy thick goopy slow drying easily transferred, it takes a lot of product I put a significant dent in one use. The color is nice though.

Eye Primer -Too Faced - Shadow Insurance Glitter Glue, Glitter Bonding Eye Shadow Primer
Amberbock363 2/21/2013 10:17:00 PM
I love glitter I put mac glitters on my eyes... What can I say I'm a rebel. I tried everything spraying my glitter picking up brush with hairspray Kenra, purology, and aqua net brand (made sure all my bases were covered). Then "sealed" it by spraying more hairspray in my eyes and it burned everytime even though I waited 1-2 min before opening them. It held for about 20 min but then it all came down everywhere I looked like a drunken middle aged stripper (highly frowned upon in chuck e cheese). So I took to the Internet for guidance astroglide, vizine, ky jelly (that's the stickiest shiit known to man), paint pots, primers galore, hard candy glitter sealant (garbage your better off with the ky astroglide cocktail) and some product I returned to Walgreens I felt defeated. Finally I read a review for LA splash sealer at ulta and they didnt have it they never do how I loathe ulta. I had seen the glitter glue in the past and as a last ditch effort I bought it from aafes (2.00 cheaper and without sales tax) . It's not a bad product it doesn't play friendly with shadows it's really sticky so patting it onto a bush then stippling it gently on the lid is the best way to use it. I stress being gentle or you'll gouge the hell outta your eye makeup (using it to blend as a base for anything but glitter or foiling is out of the question). It holds the thicker the glue the better it holds the glitter and the thicker you can pack it on! This tube will last me a year I'd say and I'm very liberal with it. My one complaint is unless you disco-fy your eye it leaves a weird visible film so keep that in mind if you want something not as dramatic.

Cleansers -Bliss Labs - Fabulous Foaming Face Wash
Amberbock363 2/21/2013 9:52:00 PM
I had gotten this product at hotels before but was never a huge fan. I got a bottle with my clarisonic pro and still didnt get the hype. It half ass foams and the microdermabrasion beads are a joke it's a very gental cleanser that didnt leave my face feeling clean. Even on the deep cleaning brush head it did next to nothing would not recommend.

Palettes -Urban Decay - Glinda Palette
Amberbock363 2/6/2013 1:37:00 AM
Im a huge Oz fan and although I don't have high expectations for the movie anything that reminds me of my childhood love for Dorothy Gail I'm all over. Is this pallet special? No not exactly unless your terribly new to cosmetics you prolly have dupes galore for each shade. The shades have good color pay off the compact is nice and heavy feels very high end however my number one gripe is this my pallet doesn't hold the shadows tightly they are always loose. I don't even use that pallet leave it in the box and go to open it up and at least one has popped out. That being said comparing the 2 pallets side by side (Glenda and Theodora) Glinda is lighter more highlight esque Theodora is one of those over done smokey pallet that everybody and their mother have been putting out lately. All and all I recommend to someone who likes shimmer and frost, new to makeup or urban decay, a Dorothy fan or someone who collects pallets.

BB Cream -Garnier - BB Cream Miracle Skin Perfector - Light/Medium
Amberbock363 1/7/2013 9:20:00 AM
This stuff I heard raves about and I was interested because my face gets irritated sometimes from windchap and foundation during the winter months. Well I bought this and I have five major problems it didn't seem hyderating and clogged my pores now I have a massive breakout. It never dried down I touched my face I could see the color on my hand even after buffing it with my Mac foundation brush and putting MUFE hd powder. But the biggest problem was the smell and my god it was potent and nasty all day my friends who normally say I smell wonderful and my son (5 y/o) said they couldn't even stand to be around me. Even when I returned to to Walmart the lady remarked on the sickening smell yuck.

Lip Treatments -Maybelline - Baby Lips lip balm
Amberbock363 1/6/2013 8:52:00 PM
It was a lipbalm. im the worlds worst for slathering it all around my mouth I happened to use the pink punch well it colored up to my nose a bright pink but didnt last any time on my lips. Ive used worse but they give you better lipbalm at the hospital (no kidding) if i needed a balm i guess i'd pick it up again.

Scrubs -Clean & Clear - Deep Action Exfoliating Scrub - Oil-Free
Amberbock363 1/5/2013 1:39:00 AM
Bought this today from Wal-mart on a whim to use with my clairsonic pro. Normally I use Peter Thomas Roth MAx Complection Correction pads (every other day), Anti-Aging Cleansing Gel, and the buffing beads exfoliator. This product was utter garbage and left a greasy film on my face needless to say I was quite unhappy I guess a trip to get what I normally use is in order. About me: I have Combonation skin, aging isnt a factor for me yet I still look very young, I do normally prefer anti-aging products because they are not as "Gentle" as the regular varity I want my face to "squeek"

Polishes -China Glaze - It's a trap-eze
Amberbock363 1/5/2013 1:19:00 AM
Loved the color so much I bought it even though I never do my own nails. I took it to the nail salon with me and everyone was freaking out about how different and pretty this was. This will last forever so that's the only reason I wouldn't buy again

Lipstick -MAC - Fusion Pink
Amberbock363 1/4/2013 3:59:00 PM
I was seriously so excited to try this color all the swatches I saw online looked like a goregeous coral/pink/red. I tried to trade for it on here to no avail and then I finally bought it from mac.. Long story short waited two weeks to get it and I finally wasable to try it and was expecting to love it but..... It turned red needless to say i was beyond pissed nothing pink coral about it i'd compare it to the color of blood. I wouldnt say i have overly pigmented lips, I would guess medium pigmentation. I took a photo and the flash showed a sheen that was unexistant maybe ill upload the photo. Total let down for me I wanted pink and got beight red :(

Lipstick -NYX - NYX Matte Lipstick
Amberbock363 10/24/2012 9:43:00 PM
The lipstick is fine I bought shocking pink which is pretty spot on for candy yum yum however matte it is not in any sense of the word. I'm trying to figure out how to upload a photo (my top lip is mac candy yum yum and my bottom is shocking pink) product is fine however is not a matte finish so that makes for a lower rating.

Fragrances -Diesel - Loverdose EDP
Amberbock363 9/18/2012 1:22:00 AM
Smells reminiscent of my HG scent "angel by Thierry mugler" I would seriously bath in that stuff it it wasn't so expensive.... Anyway this had similar notes add a sort of stagnant bubblegum smell which I mean in the best way I'm definitely picking up a bottle even though I just refilled my angel.
