Eyeliner -Clinique - Brush-on cream liner in TRUE BLACK
ElleJae 1/29/2010 11:32:00 AM
Really nice dark colour, very buildable and stays all day! It's also really soft and even though it's a small tub, i've use mine everyday and I still have so much left (and i've had it for a really long time!) I used to prefer liquid liner but this is much easier to use and less harsh. I approve!

Eyeliner -MAC - Powerpoint eye pencil in Engraved
ElleJae 1/29/2010 11:28:00 AM
Great eyeliner pencil, I've gone through quite a few of them in order to find the perfect one that will not smudge and this one is up there! I find that there's more product to it than the twist up eyeliners and has great colour pay off. It's also incredibly smooth and soft and one of the few eyeliners that can at times, last me the whole day!

Polishes -OPI - Parlez-Vous OPI?
ElleJae 1/28/2010 10:50:00 PM
I'm an avid purple polish girl and this is a beautiful colour. It's such a nice lavender gray and I get compliments on it all the time. It goes on really nice and smooth and I was tempted to stock up on them since I'm so in love with this colour. Really gorgeous smokey colour, an absolute must have for fall!

Eye Shadow -Joe Fresh Style - Eye Shadow in Gold Rush
ElleJae 1/28/2010 10:33:00 PM
GREAT eyeshadow!! I was so surprised that it's as good as it actually is! It's nice and pigmented and is exactly the colour I was looking for for a fraction of the price I was willing to pay! I almost didn't buy this because I don't usually like buying drugstore eyeshadows but I'm so glad I DID purchase it and will definitely be on the lookout for more colours when I go to Loblaws next!! I was looking at my mac eyeshadows and they're 1.5 g and I think I paid around $13 (Canadian) for each while the Joe Fresh one was only $4 and is 3g!!!! So to all of you girls out there who were like me and were completely skeptical about drugstore/grocery store makeup, you should definitely give this a try! And really, for $4 how can you go wrong?

Eye Shadow -Cargo - Essential Eye Palette Cool/Neutral
ElleJae 1/28/2010 10:26:00 PM
A really great beginner/neutral palette! It gives a really nice natural look and is really easy to use. The browns that came with it are so versatile and I find myself reaching for it whenever I need nice matte colours to darken a look and the crease colour is great for the outer V when you're doing a natural barely there look! The only downside is that my lid started to get a little wobbly after using it a couple times and the packaging is kinda heavy (maybe to accommodate the big mirror it comes with? not necessarily a bad thing though! ;])

Mascara -Cover Girl - Lash Blast Waterproof
ElleJae 1/28/2010 10:15:00 PM
I bought this product specifically for a funeral where I knew I'd be bawling my eyes out and it definitely worked! I have really thin asian eyelashes and that was the first time I'd ever received compliments on my mascara! Not only did it hold my curl and add length, it also didn't flake and was 100% waterproof. Unfortunately this also means that it is 100% hard to get off! It was ridiculously hard to get off and I even had a little on the next day from the day before! I've read some reviews about how it smells bad but it honestly didn't bother me since I couldn't smell it when I had it on. If you're looking for an intense waterproof mascara, this is definitely the one! I liked it a lot better than any mac one (and I've tried a bunch of those!) and especially more than the mac waterproof one which I found flaked a lot. Other than the fact that it's difficult to remove, I found that the packaging was quite bulky and the wand took a little getting used to since it's quite large but other than that, this product is great! :)
