Foundations -Max Factor - Pan-Stick in Nude Ivory
Miki1985 12/20/2007 11:03:00 PM
I use this as an under-eye concealer and it works very well for that purpose. It's a shade or so lighter than my skin tone and brightens up my face very effectively. It dries to a powdery finish and stays put until I wash my face.The coverage is quite opaque and easily conceals any darkness under my eyes.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lipgelee in Moistly [DISCONTINUED]
Miki1985 12/20/2007 11:01:00 PM
I love this. I love the gel-like texture and the awesome vanilla scent. I'm rather surprised by how moisturizing it is. It looks very dark purple in the tube, but goes on a sheer berry, and looks like the color my lips should be naturally.

Lipstick -MAC - Sheer Plum

I quite like this. It looks like a straight dark brown in the tube, but is a beautiful berry-brown on the lips. It's somewhat dark, but I think the Lustre finish helps in that it's not too flat, matte, or opaque, which would make this color look dated. Leaves a pretty stain on the lips when it fades, applies smoothly, and smells like vanilla.

Lipstick -MAC - Frost Lipstick in O
Miki1985 12/20/2007 10:48:00 PM
On me, this is a deep berry that is infused with golden shimmer, which keeps it from looking too harsh. It pairs well with Half-Red lip liner, also by MAC. The texture is smooth to apply and is also long-wearing. I love the light vanilla scent.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Vex
Miki1985 8/16/2007 4:38:00 PM
This is an interesting color. On me, it's a pale grey/green that flashes pink. I think it's very versatile and goes with many colors. I like it best as a lid shade, with Trax or Humid in the crease. It also works well with Club and Satin Taupe. I took one lippie off because it could stand to be a bit more pigmented. I'm a lighter MMM with medium brown hair and hazel eyes.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Naked Lunch

I love this shadow. It's a muted, shimmery pink-champagne nude that imparts a "candlelight glow" look to my eyes. It looks great as a wash, or on the lid with Phloof! as a highlight with some black liner and mascara. For me, this is a simple eye look that is always effective.

Lip Gloss -Clinique - Glosswear for lips in Juicy Apple
Miki1985 6/12/2007 12:06:00 PM
I love that this gloss looks natural but is not too muted. It turns my natural lip color up a few notches with its gorgeous reddish-pink glaze. It is shiny but not distractingly so with a not-too-thin, not-too-thick, texture. I love this gloss with Everyday Minerals blush in Apple and a shimmery neutral shadow on my eyes for a "my face but better" look that makes me look naturally gorgeous. ;-)

Blush -Everyday Minerals - Apple
Miki1985 6/12/2007 12:00:00 PM
I love this blush. It looks very natural on my light-to-medium skin and just lights up my face in a "non-made-up" way. The texture is silky and pigmented and very little is needed to achieve the ideal look. I love this gorgeous warm pink and will repurchase over and over. I definitely consider it a staple.

Lipstick -Milani - Bonfire

Beautiful warm red with coppery golden shimmer. Very pigmented and lasts a long time on the lips. It makes a HOT shade for summer IMO! I love the grapey scent and affordable price too. MMM/brown/brown/MAC N5.

Lipstick -Milani - Bing Cherry
Miki1985 5/4/2006 7:12:00 PM
Beautiful creamy, burgundy red without shimmer. This is a very intense and pigmented shade, so it's best to use a lip brush and/or liner with it. It's very classy and polished-looking, and I love the way it stains my lips a sweet, deep cherry shade for hours. The grapey scent is nice IMO. MMM/brown/brown/MAC N5

Lipstick -MAC - Sandy B. lipstick
Miki1985 5/4/2006 7:04:00 PM
Beautiful light peachy/pink color with golden shimmer; AWESOME spring/summer shade! It looks good on me swiped on straight from the tube, but can also be worn with an array of liners/glosses with amazing results. It looks great with Rimmel Tiramisu liner and Clear Lipglass, or even Nymphette or Prrr. Very sexy shade with some bronzer, peachy-pink blush (NARS Orgasm), gold shadow, and black mascara. In my experience, it is smooth and not too drying, with the classic yummy vanilla scent. Love it! MMM/brown/brown/MAC N5

Lip Gloss -Revlon - Super Lustrous Lipgloss- Cherries in the Glow [DISCONTINUED]
Miki1985 3/21/2006 5:00:00 PM
I have really fallen in love with this gloss. It is sheer and shiny; a soft red without shimmer that heightens the natural lip color. I would call it a MLBB shade, even for my pale lips. Sexy. Texture and lasting power are superb. This could be a definite repurchase for me.

Blush -MAC - Sheertone Blush in Blushbaby
Miki1985 3/13/2006 6:55:00 PM
LOVE. HG neutral blush for me. It's a soft pinky-brown that goes with EVERYTHING! It does not have shimmer, but has a velvety feel and gives my face a natural-looking flush. I have no problems with lasting power and a pan of MAC blush lasts forever. Without a doubt I will repurchase this blush whn I finish it. MMM, hazel eyes, warm brown hair.

Lipstick -Jane - Megabites- Punch Bowl
Miki1985 3/13/2006 6:52:00 PM
I really like this lipstick. It's cheap, shimmery, sheer, peachy-pink goodness. I love the golden cast this gives my lips. The sweet taste is a plus too IMO. It feels very lightweight, but not too slippery. I took off one lippie for a lack of staying power, but that might be my fault, as it really does taste good! ;-) It's so cheap though that I don't mind and I'd repurchase again if I ever needed to, but I have so many lipsticks to go through, it's not funny. MMM hazel eyes, warm brown hair.

Lipstick -MAC - Viva Glam II

Wow. The perfect pinky-beige lipstick! It's a satin finish and not SO nude that it looks like concealer on my lips, but it's perfect for smoky eyes or a natural look for me. My lips are pale, so this is a great MLBB shade. Love the vanilla scent and lasting power. MMM, hazel eyes, warm brown hair.
