Crème -Revlon - ColorStay Whipped Creme Makeup
Kismetkindle 12/7/2012 5:17:00 AM
Excellent coverage, long lasting, easy to apply. Great foundation, the only issue I have is with the packaging which is a squat jar that you have to dab in a finger/brush/implement to lever some out. This is not ideal and I would rather have some sort of pump. But it's not going to stop me buying it. It's great.

BB Cream -Skin79 - Super+ BB Cream Pink Label
Kismetkindle 12/7/2012 5:12:00 AM
I loved this BB cream. It has great coverage, good SPF and is a good colour for my skin (which is quite light and cool toned). At first I wore this under my other foundation to boost the SPF. Now I've started to leave off using foundation at all and just use the BB cream. Loving it.

Cleansers -Bioderma - Sensibio H2O (aka Crealine H20 Solution micellaire)
Kismetkindle 12/7/2012 5:08:00 AM
I think I must be using this incorrectly... it works poorly to remove eye makeup in particular. It is certainly not greasy, but it also doesn't do a very good job. I tried to use it as I do my MAC eye makeup remover (ie: rub a few drops around each eye and then use cotton pad to remove makeup). It was nowhere near as effective as the MAC version - and I have to admit, given all the raves I've heard about this product, I expected it to be better. Quite confused, really!

Liquid -Chanel - Vitalumiere
Kismetkindle 11/8/2012 12:27:00 AM
I first bought Vitalumiere in color #20 Clair. This seemed to be my color - it's a bit confusing because I have freckles and some color in my face and visible chest area. I was a bit disappointed because of lack of coverage and it seemed a bit yellow when I was first applying it (although I must admit, after blending onto face, the yellowness was not an issue). As for the very dewy finish, this was fine as I have quite dry skin. I spoke to one of the assistants at the Chanel counter in David Jones about the color and she advised that #20 was too light for me. I ordered #32 Epice. When I first received it, I was shocked on applying it to my hand - seemed way ORANGE almost!! But again, after blending, it seemed less shocking. In fact, when I applied it to my face it was wonderful. Blended nicely and covered freckles brilliantly! and was not too dark or weird at all. So I will have to wear it for a bit to decide whether this is The One (foundation love of my life), or if I need to keep looking... :) But I'm quite happy as I sit here and I think it will be good foundation for me going into summer.

Eye Shadow -NYX - 10 Color Palette - Champagne & Caviar

I received this shadow set yesterday and have put it on today and I love it. The colours are great. However the best part is how well they blend and the colour strength. I used the NYX flesh coloured eye primer, then the matte white, matte pink and matte dark brown. The colour strength was potent and the blendability was fantastic. I am more impressed with these shadows than the MAC ones I purchased a few weeks ago (and I was quite happy with those... until now!)
