Weighs down my frizz and makes hair extremely sleek and slick looking without the nastiness of gel. Smooth soft hair that's fun to touch and flattened and under control. Nice shine quality.

Eyeliner -L'Oreal - Bare Naturale Gentle Mineral Eyeliner
rated 1 of 5
ScullyNess 4/10/2009 7:46:00 PM

Worst eyeliner I have ever tried. I have black onyx and it's terrible. It swatches well on your hand but goes all over your eye infact it gets into the tear duct of your eye and when your eyes water you get black dripping down. It also gets into your lashes and feathers all over your undereye area. Similar look to a bar fight black eye from all the fallout. After it's on 10 minutes you look like a joke out of an old black and white comedy where they give someone a telescope to view through and it leaves a black cloudy ring. It even dusts upwards and gets all over the place and it smears. I love the bare naturale foundation but this stuff is crap. Stay far far away from it. Infact i'm getting my money back on this one from the store tomorrow, I seldom return anything I dislike but this is a complete rip off folks! A big fat F.

Blush -Jane - Be Pure Mineral Crushed Blush in 06 Sunbrushed
rated 5 of 5
ScullyNess 4/3/2009 9:49:00 PM

This color is amazing. Don't be intimidated by the container. It looks copper red in the container on the store shelf. It goes on a very nice natural pink/tawny color. It's not shimmery or frosty. It covers well, has good pigmentation and blends easily. It also minimizes your pores and doesn't settle into fine lines. Highly recommended beautiful color.

Blush -Jane - Be Pure Mineral Crushed Blush in 03 Rose Silk
rated 2 of 5
ScullyNess 4/3/2009 9:38:00 PM

This particular color is a highlighter, not so much a blush. The pigmentation in this shade rose silk, is a low pale pink when applied but it's very very shiney! This is complete sheen in a little jar. If you like high shine blushes with a strong glow then this might be for you. It was terrible on me, made my pores look huge. I liked the color 06 sunbrushed a lot better, it had a different quality and better coverage. Stay away from this shade unless you like the frosted glow look on your skin and have good skin to begin with. People who want a blush that goes well with their coverage and hides your pores get the shade 06 Sunbrushed instead or stick to Jane's regular blush that isn't in the mineral line. It looks more natural than this.

Blush -Rimmel - Blush in Pink Rose
rated 2 of 5
ScullyNess 4/2/2009 5:25:00 PM

Other rimmel blushes have been a hit with me but this one is terrible. It's very very weakly pigmented and has far too much shimmer in it. I don't want to look like pale frosty pink with bumps! This blush can ruin the best foundation and powder job on your face if your trying to hide imperfections. Stay away from this pearly sheen color of 04 pink rose. It's not a nice skin flush color like it appears in the container. It's very pale and frosty and doesn't blend well.

Concealers -NYX - Concealer Stick
rated 5 of 5

This is a nice thick creamy convenient concealer. I have it in lavendar and it is really nice. I'm buying a second one to have when I run out of my first concealer stick which is actually like a pen. Great packaging! Fantastic coverage and blendability.

Blush -Revlon - cream blush in just peachy
rated 3 of 5
ScullyNess 3/27/2009 10:04:00 PM

Sheer peachy creamy bluch bordering on oily. It does break down your makeup after you wear it for a couple of hours because it doesn't really dry down to a powder like other cream blushes. This one seems to stay creamy so if your makeup dries to a powder at all this won't stay even with it after 2 hours. It's a bit on the pinky/orangey flesh toned side of peach not really a yellow or bronze peach. It blends well and is natural looking on light colored skin but it's very sheer and needs lots of product to really get it to show but your foundation won't last unless that's a cream that doesn't dry down. NYX has much better cream blushes. I wouldn't bother to repurchase, just to sheer for me.

Blush -Jane - Blushing Baby Doll

I've been trying out a lot of blushes lately. This is one of the best if not the best! High color payoff without the nasty chalk effect. A great everyday matte blush in a rose bordering on peach/tawny color. Really nice.

Liquid -Rimmel - Stay Matte + SkinPure Complex Clarifying Matte Foundation
rated 1 of 5
ScullyNess 3/23/2009 10:49:00 PM

I bought this thinking it was a different product that is higher rated on here. Mistake! This stuff is crap, it's greasy and doesn't dry down matte and transfer free like it claims. Also the coverage is incredibly thin! It doesn't cover up redness or skin tones at all. You have to use layers of it, which is hard enough since its so greasy for a supposed mineral stay matte foundation. It just slides all over your face when your trying to apply it. I have 100 ivory and it ends up being a sticky texture pale orangey color. I'm sticking to jane stay calm foundation or cover girl aqua blend instead!

Blush -Rimmel - Peach
rated 4 of 5
ScullyNess 3/23/2009 4:30:00 PM

I agree also that this could be a featured product. Only downfall for me is it has a sheen to it after applied. It's almost matte but not quite, not shimmery glittery just like I said, has a sheen. So if you wante a completely matte peach tone/tawny don't get this one, get baby doll in jane's blush instead because that is a true matte. 010 Peach is smooth and applies opaquely compared to most blushes I have ever tried. It's as good as high end mineral blushes in texture and blendability on your face. I just doesn't stand out on the shopping shelf because it's not put right infront of your nose with a giant display that says minerals on it. It's a small container that says rimmel london on it. It wastes no space and is great for travel or just easier on your makeup drawer at home. No need to waste money on 10-18 dollar blushes. This one is wonderful natural soft peach - mauve tone. Recommened will be buying a backup.

Blush -Rimmel - Spicy Nude Powder Blush
rated 5 of 5
ScullyNess 3/23/2009 4:16:00 PM

Nice matte brownish bronzey with a hint of peach color. I normally stay away from brown shades but this one works well for what it is. If your fair it goes on like a moderately heavy pigmented peached out browze/brown matte shade of blush, It stands out quite a bit. I could see this looking incredibly natural on someone of a darker skin tone with it's wonderful warm matte dark peach glow. A nice clean look to give you some color without looking dried up from the sun. Would rebuy if ever ran out.

Great product. Gives good color, dries to a matte non shimmer finish. Colors better than powder blushes for the natural want it to be flushed front of my cheeks. I will be purchasing more of these.

Lipstick -Wet 'n' Wild - Silk Finish Color: 516C
rated 4 of 5
ScullyNess 3/19/2009 11:01:00 AM

Sunset peach is the name. The color is okay it's a pale reddish peach. It's a high shimmer though so if you want the lines in your lips to show up well, shimmer's do that! It's a nice neutral shade if you don't mind the iridescence to it when light reflexs on it.. I put would buy again just because in theory I would but I doubt I'd run through all of this very fast.

Great quality shadow. Greens are hard to find especially ones that aren't chalky. You have to get this!
