Mascara -BeneFit Cosmetics - They're Real
Lisa71 8/20/2011 7:44:00 PM
I'm a mascara junkie I'm always looking for bigger and better when it comes to mascara and lashes!! My faves are Dior Show, Lancome Def, and a combo of Loreal Telescopic with Collagen Volume. Still I always stray to experiment with new mascaras. I got this free from Sephora and I love it!! They said it took three years to come up with this who knew mascara science was so complicated. This really makes my lashes look incredible and fake in a good way.My lashes naturally curl up so no need to curl before I apply but if you do curl before the effect is stunning. My lashes are average length and not that thick. When I put this on it's like instant doll eyes. Just wish it werent so expensive. I would definatey buy again if I had the money because for me this works really well. Be prepared because if this mascara works for you people will think you have fake lashes so the name is appropriate

Brows -Unlisted Brand - castor oil
Lisa71 7/9/2010 6:19:00 PM
A little over a month ago my girlfriend convinced me to get temporary lash extensions from a salon. BIG MISTAKE!!! The glue used for these fake individual lashes is like cement. Yes the lashes lasted for a bout two weeks but ALL of my real lashes came off with them. My eyelids were bald and I wanted to cry because I was suppose to be in a wedding in two weeks. I didnt have money or time for Latisse, Revitalash, etc I posted my dilema on Makeup alley and so many people said to give castor oil a try. For two weeks I applied everyday sometimes twice. In two weeks just in time for the wedding I had enough eyelashes to curl and apply mascara. This stuff was a life saver it made my lashes grow in two weeks. They are darker and thicker than before. Its really a miracle. I used plain old CVS brand castor oil that I paid $4.99. Ladies stay away from false lashes and give castor oil a try. I'm usually a skeptic when it comes to beauty products but this stuff works

Lip Treatments -Korres - Lip Butter - Jasmine
Lisa71 1/21/2010 7:03:00 PM
This stuff is like but-tah. Nice light scent and moisturizing. I wish came in a stick form but then it wouldnt be as soft. It has a light tint but it doesnt really show on my lips because they naturally have color. Yeah a it pricey but I like it.

Eyeliner -Milani - Infinite Liquid Eye Liner
Lisa71 1/8/2010 8:03:00 PM
This stuff is awful. The brush is stiff and the formula goes on very uneven and clumpy. It doesnt look natural or attractive at all. It also flakes after a few hours. The color I got was a purple maybe the other colors' formula is better? I ended up returning it to CVS beause it was a waste of $5.99. Its a pain to remove so I guess it does last 24 hrs.

Mascara -L'Oreal - Extra Volume Collagen mascara
Lisa71 8/31/2009 4:35:00 PM
I'm a mascara junkie I've tried at least 50 brands. I really love this one. It makes my lashes look fake in a good way! I have naturally long lashes that curl up and this makes them look thick and gorgeous. Very dramatic! I like Loreal/Lancome mascaras this is one of the best one so far.

Mascara -LORAC - Visual Effects
Lisa71 4/22/2009 4:57:00 PM
I got this mascara for free. I think that its just okay. I think there are drugstore brands that would give you the same results or even better. It's good for length but I dont think it makes your lashes thicker. It you apply more than two coats it starts to clump up your lashes even the comb applicator doesnt separate them well. Bottom line save your money and try something else my recs are Loreal Voluminoius or Telescopic, Lancome Definicils or Dior Show

Other -Gigi - Space saver warmer
Lisa71 2/12/2009 4:43:00 PM
Gigi is the brand that most salons and spas use for their waxing services. I was tired of spending tons of money on waxing so I decided to buy the machine and all of the supplies that are in the salons. This machine is great it keeps the wax at the right temperature (heat up the wax for about 45 minutes). The best wax is the All Purpose Honey wax by Gigi which comes in a metal tub container that fits right into the warmer. If you use the Gigi Natural Muslin strips with the honey wax you will get the same results as the salon. I have already saved a couple hundred of dollars since I bought this three months ago. I wax my eyebrows, upper lip, underarms, bikini and arms. Best beauty investment.

I'm a mascara junkie. My faves are always from the Lancome/Loreal line. This one makes my lashes look like false eyelashes in a good way. Lots of drama. Two coats and I'm good to go.

Lipstick -L'Oreal - HIP Lipstick

Holy Oprah!!!This lipstick makes me look like a porn star. What more could I want? Great pigment on the darker shades. I have it in Royal which makes me feel like a princess. Not too shiny not too matte. Color lasts longer than most men. I'm ready for my close up.

Lipstick -L'Oreal - Infallible Lip Colour Duo
Lisa71 9/17/2007 10:41:00 PM
Holy Oprah this stuff could last thru a nuclear war. I've spent at least a million dollars on every brand of long wearing lipstick. None could satisfy me. My lips are pigmented so most were too sheer in coverage. Others would cake up or flake off leaving my lips looking all crusty and gross. This is my HG of long wearing lippies good pigment and more staying power than a 20 yr old stud on Viagra. My only complaint the colors on the package dont match whats inside the tube. Get your head examined if you pay full price for this $13 is too much wait for a sale or coupon.

Gels/Soaps -Caress - Exotic Oil Infusions Moroccan Cream Oil Body Wash [DISCONTINUED]
Lisa71 9/11/2007 5:38:00 PM
This stuff makes me feel like I'm in a harem and I'm being prepared for a night with a handsome Moroccan prince. If only!! Anyways back to reality I really love the scent of this body wash- very exotic like a desert vacation in a bottle. It is so thick and creamy that you can skip lotion after your shower if you're feeling lazy. The scent lingers nicely on your skin- very handy for lovemaking with the prince.

Liquid -Revlon - ColorStay Active Light Makeup SPF 25 ] [DISCONTINUED]
Lisa71 6/3/2007 1:35:00 PM
Unfortunately I dont have perfect skin and I need to wear foundation. I bought this for the summer months when I spend a lot of time at the beach or at the waterpark. This stuff lasted all day and thru many water rides. It still looked good even at the end of the day. The good part is it also has an SPF. My skin is olive tone , combination with occassional breakouts. This stuff did the trick. I choose the color toast which blended into my skin tone decently. A great find
