Lipstick -Revlon - Colorburst Lip Butter
MeikoSama 3/21/2013 6:26:00 PM
Lots of pigment, however I don't find this very moisturizing. It's also settles into the fline lines on my lips and accentuates any dry skin/cracks. Not cheap either for a drugstore product. I know lots of people love it but it's just not for me. Maybe if your lips already aren't very dry this might be a good product

Treatments -Origins - Plantscription Anti-aging serum
MeikoSama 3/20/2013 3:29:00 PM
Feels very moisturizing and soothing on my skin. I haven't used it long enough to see if it's makes a difference yet so am a bit undecided about whether I would repurchase. But I've heard that moisturizing as it soaks into the skin is the most important thing a serum should be able to do and it does that

Treatments (Eye) -Origins - GinZing
MeikoSama 3/20/2013 3:24:00 PM
Not bad, moisturizes my under eye area. I don't have problem with any noticeable "shimmer" that others have commented on. No other noticeable difference on my eyes either, so will finish using but won't repurchase

Lip Treatments -Fresh - Sugar Rose Lip Treatment SPF 15
MeikoSama 2/28/2013 8:39:00 PM
First got this as birthday sample from Sephora, then got another through buying the 6 miniset. These are hands down the best lip balms I've ever used, so moisturizing, makes my lips feel really soft. This shade gives a nice rosy tint that flatters my skin tone. It's pricy but not the worst (YSL's lip balms are $38 and aren't as moisturizing as these)

Lip Treatments -Fresh - Sugar Lip Treatment in Berry
MeikoSama 2/28/2013 6:28:00 PM
Love this! Turns into a cool toned red on my lips, so moisturizing too, better than any lip balm I've ever used before.

Mascara -Christian Dior - 360 degree mascara
MeikoSama 2/28/2013 6:25:00 PM
Rceived this as a gift. Liked the effect of this mascara, quite natural looking boost in volume and length. The rotating wand is kind of cool too. I enjoy using it but wont be repurchasing due to the price (the coolness factor isn't high enough for me and the effect can be achieved with other cheaper options)

Treatments -Goldwell - Kerasilk Instant Silk Fluid
MeikoSama 2/28/2013 6:20:00 PM
I don't notice much difference with this product, wet or dry. Also made my hands gross and was very hard to wash off. I prefer the hair oils over this

Mascara -Estee Lauder - Double Wear Zero Smudge Lengthening Mascara
MeikoSama 2/28/2013 6:07:00 PM
Does what it says, "no smudge"! Unfortunately it's also very difficult to remove, almost worse than some waterproof formulas, for that reason I will not repurchase (though it looks great, it's not so special that it's worth the amount of difficulty removing it at night)

Misc Beauty Tools -Tweezerman - ProCurl Eyelash Curler
MeikoSama 2/22/2013 10:51:00 PM
Pretty good curler but doesn't work as well as the Shu, and costs more, so won't be buying again. Like the hvy weight and sturdy feel of it though

Styling Products -John Frieda - Full Repair Touch-up Flyaway Tamer
MeikoSama 2/18/2013 11:38:00 PM
Works great on frizz/flyaways and holds all day. Have rebought this couple times now, the second tube unfortunately started leaking whenever I reinserted the brush, so the packaging could use some improvement. Also careful not to comb your hair after it dries as white residue can result

BB Cream -Smashbox - Camera Ready BB Cream SPF 35
MeikoSama 2/17/2013 9:22:00 PM
Not a bad BB cream, sheer coverage that can be built up to medium. Better in the summer, as I find it accentuates dry patches in the winter. Though I enjoy the product, it's not so special that it's worth $50, so won't be repurchasing

Mascara -Lancome - Cils Booster
MeikoSama 2/17/2013 8:53:00 PM
I repurchase this product regularly, it's the best mascara base I've tried and also prevents mascara smudging on my lower lids. Expensive but worth it since it's such a great product

Primer/ Corrector -Yves Saint Laurent - Touche Eclat (Radiant Touch)
MeikoSama 2/16/2013 4:22:00 PM
Generally good highlighter, thin and blends nicely, can be used on bare skin. The effect is nice but not so special that can't be achieved with other less expensive products. Will enjoy finishing/using the product but won't repurchase due to the price ($50 cdn)

Brows -Yves Saint Laurent - Dessin Des Sourcils- Eyebrow Pencil
MeikoSama 2/16/2013 2:34:00 PM
Have this in #4- Ash, great grey for Asians with black hair (used with harder stroke). One downside is that a harder hand is needed to get the color needed as the pencil is firmer, but softer than the Shu eyebrow pencil. Great results though
