Lip Gloss -Vincent Longo - Lip Lux
Blythe 1/3/2002 2:20:00 PM
I have this in Champagne and so far am really pleased with the product. The packaging is really cute and it even has a little mirror, perfect for touch-ups. It goes on very sheer and for me is the perfect shimmery nude color. It doesn't last very long, due to the sheer texture, but most glosses don't.

Blush -Vincent Longo - Duo Blush Day/Play
Blythe 1/3/2002 2:16:00 PM
This is a really nice blush duo. There are two sides. The Play side is a light coral color and the Day side is a shimmery peachy pink color. They look really nice mixed togethether on my cheeks- it gives a really natural flush. I didn't think this would flatter me, but a MA tried this on me and I loved it. My only complaint is the packaging- it's hard to use either color seperately since there is so little of each.

Eyes -BeneFit Cosmetics - She Laq ] [DISCONTINUED]
Blythe 1/3/2002 1:15:00 AM
I loved this product! It does an amazing job of keeping my eyeshadow and eyeliner where it belongs! My lids are fairly oily, and by midday I find that most of my eye makeup has traveled up to the crease, but with SheLaq, the look lasted all day and I haven't had any trouble taking it off. I haven't tried it on the lips yet, though, because I don't often wear lipstick.

Lotions/ Creams -BeneFit Cosmetics - Bathina Body So Fine
Blythe 1/3/2002 1:11:00 AM
I begged and begged for this for Christmas. When I finally got it, I couldn't wait to try it out. Was I disappointed! The packaging, as I expected, was adorable and I am keeping it for that alone. But boy, did it stink! I usually like rose scents but after I rubbed this on my skin I wanted to scrub, and scrub, and scrub it off. As far as the product itself, it didn't do much, other than make my skin feel slightly greasy and I barely noticed the reported 'luminescent sheen.' I am rarely disappointed in a product, so I was surprised to find myself disliking this! Like I said before, the only reason I am keeping this is because the packaging is soooo cute!

Bobbi's brushes are fantastic! I have been using them for years and am not disappointed. They are very sleek and I like pulling them out of my purse. The application quality is great. I would definitely recommend these.

Lipstick -NARS - Galaxy Girl
Blythe 1/3/2002 12:58:00 AM
All I can say is, I'm joining the bandwagon in raving for this product! It's ridiculously expensive ($21 for a lipstick is waaay overpriced) but the packaging is beautiful and the color, which can best be described as a goldish pink, is exquisite. It looks very bright in the tube but is very sheer on your lips, just enough to give them a soft shimmer. It brightens up my whole face and makes me glow. My Holy Grail of lipsticks!

Blush -NARS - Orgasm Blush
Blythe 12/26/2001 9:51:00 PM
Orgasm and Sin blushes are my 2 holy grail blushes- I wouldn't go anywhere without them! Orgasm is a beautiful, shimmery peachy-pink color with some sparkle. It really makes my whole face "pop". My eyes sparkle and my whole face glows in a healthy sort of way when I wear this blush! I love, love, love it.

Lotions/ Creams -Unlisted Brand - body lotion
Blythe 12/26/2001 9:48:00 PM
I *LOVE* this lotion! First of all, I have to rave about the scents. I currently have Cinnamon Buns, Eggnog, Lemon Meringue, and Brown Sugar. They are all very unique and delicious! The lotion itself is also great- it's very lightweight so it sinks into your skin quickly. The scent lasts a long time. However, I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for a really heavy duty, creamy lotion because, as I said before, it's very lightweight. I love these, though, and I can't wait to purchase more!

Bath Treatments -Unlisted Brand - Bath Melts
Blythe 12/26/2001 9:43:00 PM
I liked this product a lot, but I do have a few gripes, the biggest being the scent. I chose the Peppermint Patty scent and though I usually don't have a problem with fragrances I really hated it. It was way too strong and made my eyes water! Also, I wish the plastic bag they come in was resealable. It's a big pain otherwise. However, it made my skin incredibly soft and smooth and I found that just one was enough. The melts themselves were really cute, shaped like little hearts! I would buy this again but with a different scent.

Lip Treatments -Smith's Rosebud Salve - Smith's Rosebud Salve
Blythe 6/4/2001 3:04:00 PM
I love this product! The texture is great for using alone or above/under a lip product. And the packaging is so cute and kitschy- it was made in the fifties.
