Treatments (Eye) -RoC - Multi correction eye cream
InlovewithSmashbox 12/2/2008 2:08:00 PM
I have slowly been developing small wrinkles under my eye, and I have just started to look older then I am. ( I was a life guard growing up, and all the sun damage is really showing) The woman at the CVS counter said that since I will be hitting 30 soon I should get an eye cream with retinol in it, and it will help with the wrinkles. I have been using this stuff for 2 weeks now, and the only thing I have noticed is that my eyes actually look worse then they did before. It has done absolutely nothing for my eyes, and I am wondering if its because I need more moisturizer on top of the cream. Well anyway, I wont be buying this again. I am still on the look out for a really good eye cream.

This did nothing for my hair, except make it look frizzy, and feel like I forgot to wash something out of my hair. I did exactly what it said to do on the bottle, and it felt like it would of dried amazingly but I was sadly let down with a poofy, untamed result. I am guessing that this is for people with really thick, uncontrollable hair.

Pressed Powders -MAC - Iridescent Pressed Powder - Belightful

I am really happy with this highlighter. I thought at first I was going to hate it because of all of the glitter. I learned that if you blow on the brush before you put it on your face, you get rid of a lot of the glitter. Then you are left with a nice glowing look. I brush it on my cheeks, my nose and just a little all over. I have gotten so many compliments since I started using it.

Highlighters -MAC - Mineralize Skinfinish in Shimpagne (Rococo) [DISCONTINUED]
InlovewithSmashbox 10/2/2008 2:04:00 PM
This is one of my favorite highlighters. It almost gives me a light bronzed shimmery look, but not disco ball shimmer. I am going to be very sad when I use this up.

This is definetly not worth 30 dollars. It does have a nice minty smell, but it doesn't last at all. All the colors just give me a clear glossy look on my lips and it fades with in 30 minutes. This was in my Cargo Gift Set and I will probably end up using it but only because I don't want to waste it.

Pressed Powders -Cargo - blu_ray high definition pressed powder
InlovewithSmashbox 9/14/2008 6:04:00 PM
I really like this item. It is so soft, and if you use a big kabuki brush and lightly dust it on, it helps keep your make up in place. This powder lasted through an entire day in Florida heat at Busch Gardens. I have combination/more on the dry side skin, and I love this item.

I am suprised at all the bad reviews. I really like this mascara a lot. It doesn't make my lashes look clumpy, and the little comb seperates so well. I apply two coats and it makes my lashes look so great!

I really like this foundation a lot. I just wish it didn't cost an arm and a leg. It does cover everything, and it last a while, but it looks a little dry in some spots on my face. I would suggest using a good moisturizer before putting it on.

InlovewithSmashbox 9/12/2008 1:37:00 PM
I was hoping for a miracle I guess. I have naturally wavy hair, but the top layers always just stay flat. I thought I would give this a shot since it got some what good reviews, and it didn't do a thing. It did make my hair feel kind of soft, but it left my ends super dry and a little frizzy. I probably going to just return this tomorrow.

Powder -Cargo - Cargo Blu-Ray High Definition Powder Makeup
InlovewithSmashbox 9/2/2008 3:25:00 PM
I am on the fence with this product. I have combination skin, and I am not sure if it is going to be too dry for me. I bought the whole set because I couldn't see spending 30 on one blush, when I can get the whole set for 59. I am hoping that in a couple of days I will love it. Update: After a couple weeks, I have become very fond of this powder. It helps my make up stay on so well. It lasts through an entire day of Florida heat and humidity. I will definetly be buying this again.

I had high hopes for this foundation. I normall wear Laura Merciers Silk Creme Foundation, and I was looking to replace it with something that doesn't cost quite as much. It doesn't really cover much, and it makes me all shiney with in an hour or so. I don't even have oily skin either. I have horrible melasma from my last pregnancy and I was hoping this would work. I guess I will stick with Laura's and pay the 50 it costs. Update: I gave it one more try and I actually love it. I wore it to busch gardens and it stayed on for 8 hours of running around in Florida heat. I am holding on to this little bottle.
