Lipstick -Milani - Color Statement - Nude Creme
Linda523 5/5/2013 9:35:00 PM
This nude lipstick is gorgeous. It has enough color that it doesn't look like concealer on the lips and is a beautiful light peachy pink color. The texture is matte but not drying. I range between NC25-40, NC30ish right now, and find that this is the perfect nude for me.

Lipstick -Milani - Fruit Punch Color Statement Lipstick
Linda523 5/5/2013 9:32:00 PM
This color is beautiful. It has become my new favorite lipstick (and I have mountains and mountains of lipsticks). I range between an NC25-40, right now NC30ish and find that it really brightens up my face. It's a coral/pink warm color but does not make my teeth look yellow at alll. The consistency is matte but not drying. Definitely pick this up!

Lip Gloss -NYX - Butter Gloss

I have 11 out of 12 colors but may go back and get the last color anyway because I love these glosses that much. I decided to skip on the red because I don't wear red too often. I have very light colored lips, almost no pigment, and these glosses show up beautifully. It's sheer enough to still see your lips underneath but delivers a nice wash of color with a noticeable shine. Its not as runny as the nyx megashine so i prefer these butter glosses much more. Some of these are more pigmented than others. The standouts to me are merengue, strawberry parfait, maple blondie, and peaches and cream. The rest are great too. Love.

Liquid -Urban Decay - Naked Skin

Naked Skin is a very appropriate name for this foundation. It feels like I have nothing on while wearing this and it looks very natural. I rated this a 4 instead of a 5 since it doesn't provide that flawless airbrushed look, but it does feel great on the skin and evens out my skintone nicely without looking cakey so I do really like it. It looks dewy when you initially put it on but after a couple of minutes, it sets nicely. I haven't used a setting powder with it but find that it still lasts throughout the day. After trying out Naked Skin from a sample pack, I had to get my hands on this. I'll go into how I picked my colors... I range from NC30 to NC40 depending on the season. I'm asian with warm and neutral undertones. I don't tan my face so I match it to my chest instead. I leveraged UD's color matching tool and set it to Mac's NC37 to figure out my Naked Skin shade and got color matched to 6.0. After scouring the internet and reading reviews, I went ahead and ordered the 6.0 from UD. I couldn't wait so I actually then went to a local Ulta and got 3 samples of 5.5, 6.0, and 6.5. The 6.0 matched pretty nicely but I felt it was borderline on the lighter side so I didn't even try the 5.5. I tried the 6.5 since I heard some Asian girls had success with this cool shade but it ended up too pink for me. I went back to the store and tried the 7.0 and it matched quite well since I'm probably closer to an NC40 right now, so I purchased a 7.0 to use during the summer and my 6.0 will be for when I get a little lighter.
