Moisturizers -Eucerin - Daily Control & Care Moisturizer
NenAlisa 5/19/2004 6:58:00 PM
Eucerin Daily Control & Care Moisturizer comes in a rectangular shaped contanier (opening is on bottom) holding 1.7oz. At first, I was on-and-off with this. I wasn't really satisfied with how it moisturized: my face felt tight and I was left with residue. However, I've learned that I needed to apply more product. As for the results: my face feels satisfyingly moisturized, it cleans up acne literally overnight, and I don't know if this is safe or not but, it also works on the acne from my shoulders, arms, and back. Although I'm still left with the residue, I find the pros outweigh the cons ... making this my current HG moisturizer. Will definetly repurchase as my container is almost empty.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Go Lightly - Tinted Lipglass
NenAlisa 1/17/2004 7:03:00 PM
I was searching for the color I created over holiday (mix equal parts Chicky and Filtered Yellow). Althought Go Lightly was not the color I was hoping for ... its still a beautiful pale white-gold pinkish color with glitter. I wear this on bare lips and its so pretty. UPDATE - I consider this (and Cultured) my all time favorite lipglasses. I have to buy more Go Lightly before it runs out ... why does it have to be LE!?!?!

Lip Gloss -MAC - Florabundance lipglass
NenAlisa 1/17/2004 6:53:00 PM
Florabundance is a milky, pale peachy-pink color. I really, really wanted to like this color ... However, once I tried it on, it washed me out. I'm willing to wait for a tan to wear this because its such a beautiful color =( UPDATE: I'm tan now, and Florabundance is soo pretty. I even use it over Prr to sheer out the frosty-ness.

Lip Gloss -MAC - underage lipglass
NenAlisa 1/17/2004 6:45:00 PM
Underage is a beautful pale, milky pink color. Its the perfect color for me (LLL/FFF) and doesn't wash me out. I consider this the pink version of C-thru. I reach for this color a lot ... I think it might be HG material for me.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lipglass in Prrr
NenAlisa 1/17/2004 6:42:00 PM
Prrr is a peachy-pink nude however, it wasn't frosty at all on me (like others have said). I also have a look-a-like color gloss from the brand Fetish (might be permanently discontinued). Anyway, Prrr looks good with my LLL/FFF (?) complexion. Would repurchase.

Lip Gloss -Rimmel - Vinyl Lip - Eastend Snob
NenAlisa 1/17/2004 6:22:00 PM
Eastend Snob is a pale peachy color with shimmer and not that milky. The gloss texture is really silky smooth, not tacky at all. So, you might need to reapply, but thats OK. And to me, this smells like an orange creamsicle ... Overall, I'm looking into more colors to buy because these lip vinyls have excellent quality for such a cheap price.

Mascara -L'Oreal - FeatherLash [DISCONTINUED]
NenAlisa 1/8/2004 10:13:00 PM
Really made my lashes feathery ... no clumps, flakes, or spidery-eyes. However, the formula is a *little* runny (but I wipe the brush a a little first) and it did smudge a little upon applying, but it comes off easily. This seperated my lashes, lengthened a little, and had no brittleness. Would repurchase.

Mascara -Maybelline - Full 'N Soft (curved brush)
NenAlisa 1/8/2004 10:09:00 PM
Excellent natural-look mascara. No clumps, smudges, or spider-eye effect. It seperated my lashes, defined them more and added some length. Made my lashes a bit more *lush*. Also, no brittle feeling. Would repurchase.

Lipstick -MAC - Mac for Playboy Bunny Pink
NenAlisa 1/8/2004 10:01:00 PM
This was my first MAC lipstick, and I find the texture amazing! Not drying at all. The color Bunny Pink is a really pretty color, and as described from a previous reviewer, 'a light/medium cool pink with mauve-bordering on violetty tones'. On me, its too blah to wear alone (at least in the winter it is), so I applied some Cultured lipglass over it ... love the resulting color: basically the same color just not so much bluish tone. While the packaging is *adorable*, I also bought it cuz its pink =) Would definetly repurchase if it weren't LE.

Lip Gloss -Milani - Crystal Gloss - Secret (#12)
NenAlisa 1/3/2004 3:07:00 PM
Went on a Milani spree and I remembered seeing this color Crystal Gloss online. In the tube, the color is like your typical nude. On my lips its sheer but it makes my pigmented lips much lighter and adds a slight fleshy tone. To me, this smells just like a vanilla milkshake. And I would definetly repurchase because for some reason my lips look much fuller (used alone) and its so cheap ... $3US!

Lip Gloss -MAC - V-Red
NenAlisa 1/2/2004 9:22:00 PM
Never wore anything red on my lips, but this was gorgeous! V-Red is just your typical slightly darker red with some shimmer/glitter. It looks ok with my LLL/FFF skin. I don't think I would repurchase because red is too bold for me. And it has the new MAC texture =(. UPDATE - been thinking about how much I cant get red lips to work on me ... but instead of glopping this on, I apply a couple of dots and spread to create a GORGEOUS just bitten stain. It brightens my face A LOT.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Zazoom
NenAlisa 1/2/2004 9:16:00 PM
Zazoom is a not-too-bright baby pinkish-purple color with some shimmer/glitter (think along the lines of Cultured w/o the mauve-blue). On my pigmented lips, it shoes up sheerly ... but you do notice the color. I really do like the color, but the famous MAC texture isn't there =(. I still would repurchase if it wasn't LE though.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Nymphette lipglass
NenAlisa 1/2/2004 9:05:00 PM
The Nymphette color is a medium pink with a gold tone to it and shimmer. Its practically the perfect MLBB color (minus the gold of course).
This adds a real nice touch to my natural face days or even a dramatic makeup day. I would definetly repurchase Nymphette because it has the same MAC quality that I love.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Pink Freeze
NenAlisa 1/2/2004 8:55:00 PM
This is a really pretty frosty baby pink in the pot however, on my lids it came out a frosty, white-ish silver ... The consistency is really good, this was my first MAC e/s (as a gift) so I can't compare to their quality. But, I'm still really confused about the color, was it because I used a sponge-tip applicator like another review said? I'll reuse with a different brush ... UPDATE: Tried this with a real e/s brush, the color finally showed up. It's gorgeous, just like in the pot. And it doesn't make me look like i've been crying.

Styling Products -Totally Juicy - Ph Beauty Labs - Give It a Swirl Curl Enhancer
NenAlisa 12/7/2003 8:28:00 PM
My hair is slightly straight yet wavy ... This has got to be the best curl enhancer I've ever used. I'm addicted to the smell and the price isnt bad at all. I only used it once or twice when I gave it to my friend. However, I've been dying to repurchase.
