Mascara -Maybelline - The Falsies in Black Drama
Rouquine25 8/29/2011 5:52:00 PM
Simply put...I love the product! I have light and not super thick or long eyelashes, but one glide of the special "spoon brush" over my lashes makes them stand out! Of course, it doesn't really look like false lashes, but it makes them appear a lot longer, fuller, and darker! I love the brush, I love the consistency of the mascara, and it stays on great!!! I really have no complaints about this product. And its really cheap! I like it better than CG lashblast, which I had been using for years! Try it!!!!!

I love every Paris Hilton scent, and this one is no exception! It's sweet, but very sophisticated. I like it for special occasions because it's good, but not overpowering. Just get all of Paris's perfumes! :D

Blush -New York Color - Riverside Rose 651A
Rouquine25 12/12/2010 3:32:00 PM
I love NYC blush! I have it in two other shades besides this one! (Sutton Palace Peach and Central Park Pink) This one is like a perfect combination of peach and pink. It looks so natural on my fair and cool skin. You can use a little or a lot, and it looks natural and beautiful! The brush it comes with is kind of square shaped and makes it harder to apply, so I use a big blush brush from ELF. You can't go wrong with this blush, especially because it's so cheap! Also, I am sensitive and acne prone and I have had no problems with it at all! Try it!

Crème -Cover Girl - Simply Ageless
Rouquine25 12/12/2010 3:24:00 PM
I was so excited to try this! I read tons of reviews before hand, and I love Covergirl, so I was really excited! I do like this product a lot, but I am still on the search for an HG foundation. (So far this and the CG oil control liquid are the best I've found!) I am pretty fair, and everyone was saying how light this foundation is. Well, it was still too dark for me. Basically this is this product in a nutshell: PROS: - easy to apply - covers redness, pimples, capillaries - has sunscreen in it - doesn't look cakey - has a good finish - the color match is pretty close - doesn't clog pores AS LONG AS YOU WASH IT OFF COMPLETELY AT NIGHT! -Buildable coverage, but you don't need a lot CONS: - doesn't wash off easily at all! I have to really work to get this off, and it does cause little whiteheads if you don't wash it properly!! -It comes off on tissues when you blow your nose, so it's not super transfer resistant. -Color match isn't perfect - The sponge it comes with is round and kind of awkward, I would recommend a cosmetic wedge sponge instead. This is a great product, but the main thing I don't like about it is how hard it is to get off. But it's so quick and easy to put on, so it makes mornings a breeze. I really like this product, but it's a bit pricey. I might buy it again, because I really do like it, but I'll probably just stick with the CG oil control liquid because it's cheaper and easier to wash off and use this stuff occassionally.

I don't know why a lot of people don't like BBW, but I guess everyone has their own opinions! I love how often they have sales, you can almost always get a good deal! Plus you always get a coupon with purchase, and I get them in the mail and email. I love how it's not expensive, but the scents don't smell cheap. I love perfume, but I don't always have the money to buy really expensive brands, but I don't want to get the cheap crap that you get from the drugstore. Ugh. BBW is perfect because it fairly priced and there's so many yummy scents to choose from. I just love shopping there! I hope that they are always going to be around! :)

Eyeliner -Hard Candy - Glitter Eye Pencil
Rouquine25 10/20/2010 5:54:00 PM
I actually really like this liner! I have it in the pink color and it goes on really well. The color is a dark purpley/pink and it shows up just fine. The staying power is good, too. I can wear it all day without a touchup. Unfortunately, it's a bit pricey for how short the stick is. But I still really like this!

Liquid -Estee Lauder - Double Wear 
Rouquine25 10/20/2010 5:48:00 PM
I was very excited to try this! I got colormatched for Shell and I got a 10 day sample. It looked like the color matched really well in the store. The first day I applied it, I moisturized with a moisturizer plus sunscreen, like I do under all foundations. It went on really well with my fingers. I was shocked though, because it looked so yellow tinted at first! But I blended it, and it looked fine. The coverage of this stuff is amazing. I have red marks and I didn't have to use concealer. I just layered this a bit on some darker spots and it looked pretty amazing! You don't need a lot of product, either. I wore it the whole day without blotting or repowdering, and for awhile my face just looked dewy. But then towards the end of the day, it was actually drying out my skin! All my dry patches were completely exposed all gross and flaky! And I won't say that this stuff broke me out, because I don't know for sure if it was the cause, but I got a few tiny shallow bumps. So the next day I gave it another go. Beautiful application, once again. But that day, I noticed how weird the color looked. I was sitting by a window with sunlight coming in, and I looked in the mirror. My face looked too pink compared to my neck!! And much paler! I have never had a problem with a foundation being too pale before because I'm so light, so that's really weird. And once again, I was very flaky by the end of the day. Oh, but I didn't have too much trouble taking it off at night actually. I just washed my face with my cleanser and got the remaining foundation off with a baby wipe. I just decided that this isn't the foundation for me. The color is off, it accentuates my dry patches, and it just doesn't feel quite right, plus I'm not going to pay $34 for a just average foundation! I how smooth it goes on and the coverage is amazing. I would recommend for people that are more on the oily side and have neutral skin tones. Too bad...I really wanted to like this. I thought it was going to be "the one!" I'll save the sample and use it when my skin gets oily maybe...and in the winter when I'm more pale!

Blush -Rimmel - Berry
Rouquine25 9/30/2010 11:23:00 PM
This blush is decent. The color in the pan looks kind of sickly actually, but it comes out in a dark pinkish plum color. You don't need a lot on the brush, or you will end up with two big dots of powder on your cheeks and look like a clown! So you have to apply with a light hand. My skin is fair and it looks good on me. I don't use it everyday, because it's just not my favorite blush by any means. It's cheap and its in a small package so it's easy to lug around if you need to.

Eye Shadow -Maybelline - Expertwear Eyeshadow duo "Irish Mist"
Rouquine25 9/30/2010 11:15:00 PM
I love this eyeshadow. The darker color is a beautiful forest green that is very versatile and matte. And I LOVE the shimmery light green. It comes out even prettier than it looks in the pan. Its not glittery, just shiny. It would look pretty on almost any skin tone. It's so cheap. It's smooth and goes on and stays on well, but it's easy to remove. So worth it!

Moisturizers -Olay - Complete Defense Daily UV Moisturizer SPF 30 - Sensitive Skin
Rouquine25 9/30/2010 5:52:00 PM
I really like this stuff. Since I use Retin A Micro, I needed a sunscreen suitable for daily use. This stuff is perfect. I use it under makeup and it's not greasy, doesn't break me out, and keeps my skin protected. My only complaints are that it isn't particularly moisturizing, but it's not drying either. Also, it makes my makeup stick on my face (kind of like a primer), which is good for the daytime, but it does make it a lot harder to get makeup off at night. But it's really good sunscreen for sensitive pale, clog prone skin like mine! Try it!

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Cherry Eyeshadow
Rouquine25 9/12/2010 12:45:00 PM
I like this one. It's a very powdery light pink, with sparkles. It's good for accenting the brow bone, but it's hard to use it just by itself. You can use it with a lot of different colors. I like to use it with Grifter and Midnight Cowboy Rides Again. Not my favorite, but it's still pretty good!

I love this color! I love oranges and creams, and this color is a mix between the two! It's also sparkly and beautiful. My eyes are blue with specks of gold in them, and this color makes them pop! Would work well with fair skin, medium, and dark! Can't say enough about this color!
