Eyeliner -Essence - Gel Eyeliner
Gothkenny 5/27/2012 10:24:00 AM
I got the purple liner as a gift from a friend. I wasn't expecting much because of the price tag, but I was amazed at how well these liners work. The purple color doesn't show up well on the skin, but the formula makes up for it. These babies stay on my skin for hours and they practically apply themselves. If they made these in more colors, I would jump for joy. I love this product.

Top/Base Coats -Hard Candy - Matte Topcoat
Gothkenny 11/28/2011 10:08:00 PM
This stuff works perfectly for me. I love being able to change up the finish on my nail polishes without having to buy a ton more bottles. I would never buy another matte topcoat, because I have no complaints about this one. It's pretty amazing for only five dollars.

Concealers -E.L.F. - Tone Correcting Concealer
Gothkenny 11/28/2011 10:01:00 PM
This stuff smells amazing enough that I would almost buy it again just for that. It doesn't conceal very much, but for my very light under eye circles, it works nicely. I just smooth it on, and it stays for a few hours. Really, in a product that's only a dollar, you can't expect much else. I did have a problem with the handle falling off though, but it just meant it would take up less room in my makeup drawer!

Fragrances -Liz Claiborne - Curve Crush for Women
Gothkenny 11/28/2011 9:45:00 PM
I know it's a little cheap, but this stuff really makes me happy. It's my favorite perfume I own, and spraying it on just makes me feel wonderful and warm. It smells like lavender and vanilla to me, with a bit of almost cotton candy. It's VERY sweet, and might seem a bit juvenile to some. I love smelling it on my clothes after a night out though. It's definitely worth the very low price. I have bought this twice now and don't regret it at all.

Polishes -FingerPaints - shades of dark
Gothkenny 11/28/2011 9:42:00 PM
I love the color of this polish. It's a blackened plum that in low lighting, looks black, but in the sun is a gorgeous, warm purple. It is super shiny without a topcoat, and barely ever chips on me. My only issue with the NP is the horrible brush that FingerPaints have. It's really hard to get a nice looking application when you're dealing with a brush that could almost be considered a striper!

Skincare - Body -Banana Boat - Aloe

This stuff is amazing. This is the reason that I almost never have to wear any foundation, and the reason people always comment on hos soft my skin is. I practically bathe in this stuff. I put it on once or twice a day, and BAM, I'm baby-butt smooth. (:

Cleansers -Yes To Carrots - Facial Cleansing Gel
Gothkenny 11/28/2011 9:33:00 PM
This stuff is my HG facial cleaner. I haven't found anything that works better than this. You only need a pea-sized amount of this stuff to scrub it over your entire face. It's really nice smelling, and it feels really nice to rub across your skin. It has never broke me out or given me any reason to not use it. This stuff is PERFECT. The Yes to Carrots line has been good to me, but this is my favorite out of all of their products.

Cleansers -Yes To Carrots - Can You C Me? Eye and Face makeup remover
Gothkenny 11/28/2011 9:29:00 PM
I don't understand how anyone could give this a bad review. This stuff rocks! (: It takes every little smudge of makeup off my face and is super gentle while doing so. It even makes my skin really soft at the same time. What is there is not like? The scent is pleasant and it doesn't irritate my skin or break me out. I'll buy it again and again.

Liquid -Maybelline - Dream Liquid Mousse
Gothkenny 11/23/2011 1:07:00 PM
In general, I do like this foundation. It dries to a nice, matte finish, and it's ungodly easy to blend. Unfortunatly, there isn't a shade light enough for my skin (so I only use this when I have a tan) and it also tends to settle into my pores. Still worth buying IMO, though.

Makeup Brushes -E.L.F. - Foundation brush
Gothkenny 11/23/2011 1:05:00 PM
Overall, this is worthless. It leavs streaks of foundation all over my face. I do use this something though, simply to place foundation on my face. I then use a sponge to blend it in. You get what you pay for with this one. Too bad, because ELF normally exceeds my expectations.

Makeup Brushes -E.L.F. - Eyeshadow Brush
Gothkenny 11/23/2011 1:01:00 PM
I really wanted to like this. It seemed so promising, but I ended up being very dissapointed. The brush hairs fall out every time I use it, and it's scratchy on my eyes. No thank you.

Polishes -China Glaze - Frostbite
Gothkenny 11/1/2011 11:35:00 PM
Dries quick. Looks gorgeous on the nail. Beautiful in color. Shine that lasts for days. The only con is that I had a slight problem with chipping. This is SO worth the money though, and is unlike anything else in my vast collection of blue polishes. If you don't have something like this, BUY IT! This is easily in my top ten polishes that I own, which says something since I own nearly 200.

Polishes -Sinful - Mint Apple
Gothkenny 11/1/2011 11:33:00 PM
This color is jaw-droppingly gorgeous. It works SO well with my skin tone and is one of the only greens that I actually like. It has a perfect formula: dries quick, has a shiny finish, and applies like a dream. Slap on two coats of this baby and you're GOLDEN. I love this polish so much! Sinful Colors has really stepped up its game with NPs like this one.

Polishes -China Glaze - Crackle Glaze - Black Mesh
Gothkenny 11/1/2011 11:30:00 PM
The crackle effect is perfect, as long as you maintain the polish. Every once in a while I have to thin mine out, and almost every time I open the bottle, I clean around the neck of it. Other than a couple simple steps, this polish is amazing. These things come along with almost all crackle polishes though. This is a lifesaver when it comes to chipped polish and it is what I put on whenever I get sick of a color. It completely changes the look of any polish you put it on. (; Love it!

Polishes -China Glaze - Go-Go Pink
Gothkenny 11/1/2011 11:25:00 PM
I loved the color, but the streakiness was simply annoying. After three coats, it looked okay, but I had to work pretty hard to get it there. It isn't horrible by any means, but I wouldn't buy it again. If you don't have a pink like this in your collection and can get it cheap, you should get it, but I would find a dupe if I ever ran out. The color is just so pretty though, that it's worth the nasty formula. At least it dries fast and has a pretty sheen to it. (:
