Powder -Everyday Minerals - foundation semi-matte formula
NinjaKiwi 10/19/2008 1:57:00 PM
So creamy, so light, so perfect! I absoltely LOVE this stuff. The price is almost impossible to beat, the formula (Semi-Matte) is perfect for my oily skin! Its not to thick, not to heavy, perfect shade, all day coverage!! If your sitting here saying your having problems with it, try a different formula or brush! I guarentee there is a perfect match for you. My EDM routine. Flat top brush/Semi-matte foundation Concealer brush/Green concealer Long kabuki/Start to finish rice finishing powder And of course my other makeup. I of course will use other makeups, but this will always be a favorite of mine.

Blush -Maybelline - Dream Mousse Blush in Whipped Strawberries [DISCONTINUED]
NinjaKiwi 10/19/2008 1:51:00 PM
This blush is quite unique. Personally, my first experience with the product was a complete crash, I stored it in my makeup trunk and used mineral blushers. Oneday I got adventerous, I dipped my middlefinger into the pot and gently dabbed it on my cheeks, and blended with my pointer and middle finger. It looked amazing!! I absolutely love this color. I have reddish blonde hair, blue eyes, and fair (I mean fair) skin. It gave me this very natural, rosy, almost candy like appearance. Its so sweet and I love it. I would highly recommend it, and if you have oily skin, don't fret! Don't automatically stash it away in your bag, put some primer or finishing dust on top of the blush so it stays longer.

Powder -Sheer Cover - Sheer Cover - Mineral Foundation
NinjaKiwi 6/18/2008 8:46:00 PM
After trying BE (which made me itch) I decided to give this a shot, It didn't make me itch, the color blended perfectly, but it was shimmery. It was noticeable where there was a bit more foundation, it didn't blend very well so I would spend several minutes trying to even out the shimmer.....

Blush -Rimmel - 8 Hr Mousse Blush All Shades
NinjaKiwi 5/13/2008 10:19:00 PM
Going from clinique to store brand is a bit of a shock, but being on a 16 year old budget buying clinique makeup is going to be a nono. I bought Rimmel london [mousse] blush, covergirl [mousse] blush and I have to say I love them both dearly. The pros of rimmel [mousse] blush. -Beautiful colors. -Great selection -Awesome price -Goes on smoothly -Doesn't smudge or cake Cons -Its kinda a creme/liquidy substance. -If you use to much your going to look like a rag doll

Foundations -Maybelline - Dream Matte Mousse
NinjaKiwi 5/13/2008 10:15:00 PM
Being on a 16 year old budget, buying clinique makeup 24/7 isn't going to work. I love my clinique but I needed something cheaper to try out. I sfound maybelline dream matte mousse. Its a cute container with a spongy, mousse like substance. It only took a little to cover my entire face, it looked nice on my cheeks, chin, a little on my neck & nose. On my forhead it was a bit patchy & kinda oily. So periododically I would have to use a [clean&clear] oil obsorbing sheet. Its not clinique, but its pretty good. I would buy again. Depends on how much money I have saved from my paycheck. =] It really hides my pores, and matches my skin tone perfectly.

Powder -L'Oreal - Bare Naturale Powdered Mineral Foundation
NinjaKiwi 4/20/2008 12:24:00 AM
I hate this product, the easiest way to express my feelings is to say a really immature thing, but.. it sucks..ass. :-) I wanted to badly to love it, but it just didn't work out. The minerals, getting them to tap off was a horrendous mess, it was cakey, but with barely any minerals, thick, I felt like I had to wash my face. It accentuated my dry spots on my nose, and looked like I had a sack of flour on my head. It didn't even match. Not even close. I'll be sticking on & off between Clinique & Everyday minerals.

Scrubs -St. Ives - St. Ives Gentle Apricot Scrub
NinjaKiwi 2/19/2008 6:32:00 PM
I used to love St Ives products, well I went through a week with/out my Murad system and desperately needed to clean my face, and this was all my mom had to use, sadly. It burnt my skin, made it red and was extremely drying, I dont even have sensitive skin, so much for this product being gentle. Terrible.

Brows -Avon - Ultra Luxury Brow Liner in Blonde
NinjaKiwi 2/18/2008 9:26:00 PM
I'm Naturally extremely light blonde, and people would always ask me " did you shave//Wax your eyebrows? Seriously where are they?" I'm like, no i'm just blonde, believe me they're there... it bothered me for years, i'm not self concious or anything, it would be nice to have eyebrows. I bought this product with LOW expectations, it went on nice, it didn't look like I took a crayola to my brows, it was natural looking but not to bold. I realy like it.

Well, Great product, nice sheer splashes of color, I really hate the brush it comes with, its like the 80's were coming back.. seriously thick triangular looking blush, not evenly distributed, So i'm using my AVON blush brush and it looks great now :)
