For reference I am NC30. I love JM products but this not so much. Im not sure what im doing wrong but i find this really hard to spread. I find it also really drying and it clings to my dry patches and this is someone who uses a clarisonic. I had better luck with CG Naturaluxe. Im super disappointed that this didnt work out for me.

Gels/Soaps -LUSH - Whoosh Shower Jelly
Emily_3383 4/10/2011 2:14:00 PM
I LOVE this. Of course I got it because I got suckered in by one the sales girls who you know are great at numbing your brain. lol I truly love this scent. Its very lemon-y and I love that. I really do feel better after I use it. There is something about the scent that just wakes me up. The way I normally use it is that i take a small chunk and put it on my loofah sponge and it then lathers and disappears. I do think this will last me a few months. Its not all that expensive compare to the rest of the items LUSH sells.

Polishes -Unlisted Brand - Soo Nails - Sky Blue
Emily_3383 4/10/2011 2:09:00 PM
I dont normally write reviews but I have to for this nailpolish. First of all the color is a perfect sky blue shade. Its not dull and not too bright, its just right. The nailpolish is a one coat polish. I didnt even have to do a second coat to fix it. It just glided on my nail. The formula is neither runny or thick. It is just right. I will update on the wear later!

Lip Treatments -LUSH - It Started with a Kiss Lip Tint
Emily_3383 3/15/2011 1:44:00 AM
I really think this has more positives than negatives. When I applied it at first I wasnt crazy about it. It was sort of chunky and hard to spread but I bought it anyway. After trying it again i decided to press it on my lips and not swiping and it really made a difference. It is drying so i do recommend applying something moisturizing over it. One thing I dont like is the scent. Its not my favorite.

Bronzers -Physicians Formula - Happy Booster Glow & Mood Boosting Powder in Bronzer
Emily_3383 2/24/2011 6:48:00 PM
For reference i am NC30 and NC35 in the summer. I have to say I love this "bronzer". Ive been getting sick of my pale winter skin and i had been using my Tarte PAP. Although its my HG Bronzer its too dark for the winter. I got sucked into the Happy Booster buzz and I ordered the bronzer. It is a very light bronzer for my skin tone. I use it more as a finishing powder and it gives me just the right amount of "glow" for lack of a better word. Im not so sure I would recommend this for darker skintones but if you want some color but that doesnt look too harsh in the winter I would suggest to try this out.

Eyeliner -Shiseido - Fine Liquid Eyeliner
Emily_3383 5/31/2009 1:09:00 AM
I got this product because I really wanted a liquid liner that I thought I could work with. This liner is really great and applies smoothly. I got it in soft black which is more like a grayish color. I don't mind that its not jet black because i don't want anything too dramatic because im still learning how to use liquid liner. I took one lippy off because it too forever for the ink to flow through. I almost thought it was empty! I definitely will repurchase if i ever need to.

Brows -NYX - Eyebrow Cake Powder Taupe/Ash
Emily_3383 12/18/2008 4:12:00 PM
This product is fantastic. I use the dark side to define my brows and the light to fill them in. For comparison I use Medium in Benefit Browzings. I really love this product and I only paid $4.99 at the local beauty supply. I dont use the little brush and spoolie, i use my own but this is a must have for an inexpensive brow powder.

Liquid -Physicians Formula - Brightening Spiral in Beige
Emily_3383 10/5/2008 5:20:00 PM
The product has good coverage but it was way too pink for my NC30 skintone. I would purchase again if they made it less yellow.

Makeup Brushes -NYX - eyeliner brush
Emily_3383 3/4/2007 9:29:00 PM
I recently bought this and I can say im definately buying a couple more. I have been looking for a good brush but i cant see myself spending money in Sephora or MAC. This eyeliner brush is so great for making a perfect straight line while using fluidline. The brush is synthetic. For 4.49 im definately buying another one!

Eye Shadow -Stila - Kitten
Emily_3383 4/2/2006 1:06:00 AM
This is a nice eyeshadow if you are on the run and just want to add some color to your lids. I would definately use a light hand when applying this because its VERY shimmery and frosty. I wear this w/o base and i just wear a tiny bit and it surprisingly lasts all day.

So far so good. I recently purchased this at Sallys Beauty supply and my nailpolish has not chipped after a week of using this. I would definately buy this again.
