Eye Shadow -MAC - Paint Pot in Indianwood
CimCim 4/24/2013 4:23:00 AM
This is a lovely color for my eyelids and everyday HG product. Since I have gold-warm undertones, I reach for this product more often than I reach for painterly. I use it almost everday, it is so easy to work with and I use it either as a base or shadow. As a base it helps my Sleek eye shadows stay put. However I recommend this as a base If you are going for classical bronze smokey eye. I recommend painterly as a base for blue/green/black/pink/silver etc. looks. Indianwood is easier to work with compared to painterly but I recommend using an eye cream first before putting this on. It just glides on the lid so I don't think you will have problems during application. I use my fingertips because my fingers heat the product then it gets easier to put it on. On my lazy days I just put on my bb cream, indianwood on my eyelids, put on a peach toned blush, curl my lashes and I'm ready to head out. I recommend this product if, -You have warm skin -You look for a lovely golden-bronze cream eye shadow -You haven't find the right primer yet -You like subtle "no makeup makeup look" -You feel uncomfortable when you don't use any product on your eyes but you don't want a full on make up

Blush -TheBalm - Down Boy
CimCim 4/22/2013 3:30:00 AM
I really like this brush. It is shimmerless, classical pink as told by previous reviewers. My light-medium skin has gold-yellow undertones ( For Referece: NARS Sheer Glow-Punjab/ M.A.C NW 25) However I was so fed up with peachy blushes and I was on the hunt for a pink blush that won't look bad on me and I think Down Boy is the one. This is a shade that that will look different on everyone but its also suitable for a pink look and warm skin. Packaging is adroable. .Recommend.

Liquid -NARS - Sheer Glow Foundation 
CimCim 1/14/2013 3:43:00 AM
Love, love, love it ! When my MAC NW25 foundation became too dark for my winter skin, I thought I should buy something lighter for the winter. Also I realized I needed a lighter coverage. Before I purchased this product I read the reviews over here and I was a little disappointed. However, when I was at Sephora I tried tihs foundation, After a few days I purchased it. I really really like this foundation. I really has a sheer coverage, but it does what it claims. I don't have acne problem, some little blemishes and sun spots. So this foundation gives me the exact amount of coverage I need. It is also very buildable and even minimum amount is enough. Also it doesnt feel heavy on the skin. But since I have combination skin I put some pressed powder around my nose and thats enough to keep it oil free all day ! And the last but not least color selection is amazing. The color Punjab is my exact skin match. Since I don't think I can find a similar match to my skin I will def. repurchase. It's not shiny looking by the way. More of the porcelain side with a very very light feeling. I you need slight coverage give it a go!

Eyeliner -Sephora - Jumbo Liner 12HR Wear Waterproof

I recommend these. Amazing quality. I have it in plum and lovin' it. I'm planning to purchase other colors. Edit: I recently purchased navy blue and it also glides like a dream. However it's tricky to sharpen these products properly. Maybe it's just me I don't know.

Bronzers -TheBalm - Bahama Mama
CimCim 12/22/2012 9:27:00 PM
I use this powder for contouring. As a bronzer it is too dark for my NW25 skin. Obviously I'm not very fair but it's too dark even for me. Consider it before you purchase.Also use with a very very light hand or you can end up like you have mud in your face. Wouldnt repurchase despite the cute packaging.

I really like this soaps smell but I would rather use it for my hands. It doesnt make me feel "clean". I would choose Sexy Peel over this.

Gels/Soaps -LUSH - Karma soap
CimCim 12/22/2012 9:10:00 PM
It's a hg soap for me. I try other Lush soaps and eventually come back for this. The scent is very strong and not for everyone though. Also melts a little bit quicker than other lush soaps. Overall I recomend this soap and would repurchase.

Gels/Soaps -LUSH - Snow Globe
CimCim 12/22/2012 9:03:00 PM
I LOVED this soap. I'm a Lushie and I'm glad that this soap didn't let me down. Totally recommend if you are into citrusy scents. Although it's a little bit drying. I recommend using a Lush body butter afterwards.

Skincare - Body -LUSH - Toothy Tabs Dirty
CimCim 9/17/2012 4:52:00 AM
I'm so amazed at all those bad rewiews. I think they taste okay, and my tooth seems whiter since I started using them. Also it's easy to carry. Yes, it's ideal for travelling but it's also ideal for office. It's one of my favorite Lush products and knowing that it's almost chemical-free is a plus. Package could be better though.
