Gels/Soaps -LUSH - Summer Pudding
Mary4MU 3/14/2011 10:19:00 PM
I'm a sucker for exfoliating products, so I was all over this when it arrived in store. I love cherry scents so to me this is divine. The ground almonds in the soap provided really nice exfoliation without be too scratchy on the skin. Would definitely repurchase this over and over again.

Treatments -La Roche Posay - Effaclar Duo
Mary4MU 1/7/2011 4:51:00 AM
Plain and simply, I love this product! I have the same issue as Clau82; I live in New Zealand and have to resort to purchasing this through eBay at crazy prices. Regardless, it does go a long way for such a little tube; so I consider it an investment for my skin. My complexion has cleared up really well; my face hasn't been this smooth since pre-puberty. My pores are more refined which has also helped with my crazy oily skin (especially since it's summer). It is expensive, but well worth it!

Lipstick -Chanel - Rouge Coco in Gabrielle 19
Mary4MU 10/7/2010 3:33:00 AM
LOVE! This lipstick is now my new favourite red lippy (after my Chanel Rouge Allure Laque in Dragon). Chanel reds surpass any other red lipstick out there IMO, and the fact that it's Chanel makes a woman feel elegant wearing a drop dead gorgeous red like this. The consistency is creamy and very smooth on application and has great colour payoff too. I would never want this to run out, but if and once it does I'll definitely repurchase.

This was love at first sight for me. I love the colour and the amplified creme formula. It's my perfect spring lippy!

Cleansers -Neutrogena - All-In-One Makeup Removing Cleansing Wipes
Mary4MU 8/9/2010 4:46:00 AM
Best makeup wipes I've used to date. Removes almost everything (doesn't really remove eyeliner and mascara very well). This is always my "go to" makeup wipe.

Blush -BeneFit Cosmetics - Coralista
Mary4MU 8/6/2010 2:11:00 AM
I love this blush! I don't usually wear blush a lot but ever since I bought this I can't not wear blush anymore. It gives me such a warm glow. Very pretty coral/peach colour. And a little goes a long way (very pigmented).

Eye Shadow -Napoleon Perdis - Gold Digger Glimmer set
Mary4MU 7/19/2010 5:08:00 AM
I adore this mini set. Granted it is a hefty price to pay for these little guys, but the colours are amazing. They sparkle on your eyes. They do cause a bit of fall out, but they're pigments, so you'd expect that to bet the case.

Lipstick -Revlon - ColorStay Ultimate Liquid Lipstick
Mary4MU 7/19/2010 5:04:00 AM
I found this awful for me. It was so sticky on my lips. The range of shades looks amazing, but the formula is not for me. I'd prefer to stick to regular lipstick.

Eye Shadow -Bloom - Bloom Eyeshadow
Mary4MU 7/19/2010 4:58:00 AM
I quite like these eyeshadows. They may not be super pigmented, but they're definitely not sheer. I have Antique Gold and Slate, and I prefer using these more for crease colours or for blending (especially for day looks). From the shadows I have I love this line, but the price for these does sting a bit. I probably wouldn't repurchase again just because I don't see myself running out of these anytime soon.

Eye Shadow -Smashbox - Rapture Eyeshadow & Brush Collection
Mary4MU 7/19/2010 2:34:00 AM
I find this collection ok (I love the brushes, use them all the time) but I find the formula of some of the shadows just a tad disappointing. Some are good, but some just crumble as soon as I get some product on my brush. They're not insanely pigmented, but not sheer either. I give this 3 lippies since I'm so so about the shadows.

I love this shadow. Perfect for a quick and simple wash of colour when you don't want to look too done up.

Eye Shadow -Coastal Scents - 88 colors warm palette
Mary4MU 7/18/2010 5:13:00 AM
I love this palette! :D Along with the 88 Matte Palette, this surpasses a lot of other palettes out on the market. I may be over-exaggerating a tad, but I can't say enough good things about this product. It is relatively inexpensive for what you get (in quantity and quality) and you won't have to buy a million shadows to have a decent collection, 'cause it's all pretty much there. Have not hit pan yet (and I've had it for a while), but when it runs out I'll definitely repurchase. :)

Liquid -Revlon - ColorStay Makeup
Mary4MU 7/18/2010 5:06:00 AM
Pretty good foundation overall, but doesn't provide "full coverage" like some MAC foundations do. This would be more of a summer foundation for me since I won't need as much coverage as I do in the fall/winter months. It's a nice light consistency and has a great range of shades. This is definitely my go to foundation, after my MAC of course.

Conditioner -KMS California - Moistrepair leave-in conditioner
Mary4MU 7/18/2010 4:03:00 AM
I love the smell of this product and the way it makes my hair feel after I put it in. I have do dry ends and this semi-moisturises them back to life. There might be something a lot better out there for my hair, but I'm liking this for now.
