Fragrances -Elizabeth Arden - Curious by Britney Spears

I thought it smelled great, BUT it fades in less than an hour every single time. My husband said there was nothing special about the way it smelled...he much prefers it when I wear Lolita Lempicka and Lancome's Miracle. I would NOT buy this again. I feel like a "perfume" that lasts less than an hour should actually be called a "body spray" and sold for about $5.

Lip Treatments -C.O. Bigelow - Soothing Lip Buffer-Gentle Formula
rated 4 of 5

Although I think 7.50 is a tad too much for this size tube, I definately LOVE this product. My lips look pinker, fuller, and smoother. The scrubby things stimulate blood flow to your lips giving them that pouty look. Then mintiness is nice, too. Not a flake in sight on these lips!! WooHoo!

Eyeliner -Bobbi Brown - Espresso Ink Long Wear Gel Eyeliner

I've been a pencil eyeliner girl since I began wearing liner at about 13 y/o - I'm 37 now and thought I could never get the hang of using a brush and this gel, but I did it right away and this stuff rocks! It makes a fine clean line that is easy to do, and easy to take it up to a more dramatic look. More creamy than gel like, but that doesn't really matter to me. I will buy again.

Eye Shadow -Bobbi Brown - Eye Shadow in Blonde
rated 4 of 5

Great neutral/base/lid color. Has excellent staying power. Goes with almost everything. The perfect "daytime" e/s. The reason I gave it 4 lippies instead of 5 is it's overpriced in my opinion.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lipglass in Nico
rated 4 of 5
LowCarbLovely 3/5/2005 12:43:00 PM

Sweet, sexy color with lots of shimmer and yummy scent. Again, I give it only 4 lippies because it comes off so easily. But I am hooked on buying MAC lipglasses anyway! :)

Lip Gloss -MAC - Viva Glam V Lipglass

Beautiful YLBB color. Nice smell. Moisturizing, but it doesn't stay on like I'd like it to. Overall though, I would repurchase as most glosses don't stay on as long as I'd like them to.

Nice enough texture with great staying power, but this particular color is too "blah" for me.

Very versatile pink...but too much like so many others for a lot cheaper.

Mascara -Maybelline - Lash Discovery Mascara
rated 4 of 5
LowCarbLovely 3/5/2005 12:33:00 PM

This product has been a great find for me in the last year or two that I've been using it. I prefer the tiny brush to get to the distant reaches (corners of eyes) and the color I use (brown/black) is very natural looking on me. I use the waterproof which doesn't seem to wreck my lashes, but the mascara does tend to age quickly in that it begins to clump when I pull the wand out of the bottle shorly after purchasing. I have and will repurchase again though, as it has worked the best for me out of all I've tried.

Eyeliner -Cover Girl - Perfect Blend Eye Pencil
rated 5 of 5
LowCarbLovely 3/5/2005 12:31:00 PM

I've used high end liners and yet I keep coming back to this old tried and true. I use it in "mink" and I mean every single day. Goes on smoothly with out any skips and the blender end gives me the more smoky smudged soft look I prefer in lined eyes. Dirt cheap and lasts all day. I'm sold...over and over...

Fragrances -Lancome - Miracle

Love the smell, but sadly, this is the first fragrance to leave tiny itchy bumps wherever I spray it on. :( Bottle is adorably pretty and the pink color of the liquid makes it a sweet addition to a collection...but I have mine up for swap because of the allery thing. :(

This was my HG fragrance until I found mark Hollywood Pink...(I know, big difference! LOL) It's so fresh smelling, and I love the bottle. Lasts for a long time.

What more can I say other than I went from wearing my Bulgari everyday to this. :) It smells sweet, girly, yet womanly enough for any age to pull it off. My husband loves it, too! :)

Another hit for OPI. This is one of those pinks that effortlessly glides from spring to summer to fall and then onto winter.

This is my absolute favorite JT. I carry it in my backpack with me and my select few cosmetic items always. Gorgeous shimmer and a hint of girly color make it a no-brainer.
