Concealers -Maybelline - Fit Me
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 5:34:00 AM
I find these concealers good for the price, though definately not the best concealers out there. I have used the 10 and 20, and I feel the 10 does a fairly good job for blemishes on me. I am not a huge fan for using these under eyes; L'Oreal's touche magique or even the Garnier anti-dark circles roll on both work better on me for this.Not bad overall.

Concealers -Revlon - PhotoReady Concealer SPF 20
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 5:12:00 AM
I found this concealer way too cakey for me. Worst thing to use under eyes, but I bought it for blemishes. Wouldn't buy again, not a nice texture or overly blendable.

Highlighters -MAC - Cream Color Base in Pearl
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 5:06:00 AM
I find this a great highlighter. I use this with a liquid foundation, mostly on tops of cheekbones, nose and browbone. I felt it made a huge difference when I saw photographs of myself, gave my face a lot more glow and life than with previous highlighters. I would buy this again, though I do have a couple more highlighters I still want to try before saying this is definately the best.

Concealers -Garnier - Anti-Dark-Circle Eye Roller
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 4:55:00 AM
I use this product almost everyday, and it doesn't cake under my eyes like many other concealers. I love the texture, and the feeling when putting it on. Whilst it does make a difference, it doesn't completely solve the problem area on me but I don't expect miracles. I feel it does a good job considering the price and I would repurchase.

Eyeliner -MAC - Buried Treasure Powerpoint
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 4:35:00 AM
I am addicted to eyeliner, specifically black eyeliners. I'd tried many browns and other colours but they were never as good as black to me. Once I got a new 'serious' job, I felt black eyeliner was a little too heavy and so I purchased this. I love it! As many have said, it's a very complicated colour but it's beautiful and a bit more subtle. Love it so much I even wear it outside of work too, something I never expected. Can't live without it now.

Eye Shadow -Revlon - CustomEyes Revlon Eye Shadow in Smoky Sexy
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 4:18:00 AM
I am not a fan of these shadows, not pigmented enough for me. I have hardly used this palette and would not buy again, there are so many better ones out there (including Revlon's colorstay quads).

Eye Shadow -MAC - Rule Matte E/S
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 4:09:00 AM
My favourite colour of the moment! It isn't an intense orange, but it is something different and I love using it for a smokey eye. A makeup artist at MAC told me to try it with cranberry.. I haven't been game to try this yet but it is more versatile than I was expecting.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Cranberry eye shadow
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 4:00:00 AM
Gorgeous colour! Lovely, rich and pigmented. My favourite way to wear it at the moment is blended with black. I could see how it could make some people's eyes look sore depending on their skin tone, but I haven't had this problem. Would definately repurchase.

Eyeliner -Maybelline - Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner - Blackest Black
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 3:50:00 AM
My first attempt at using gel liner and.. what have I been doing without it?! So much better than all liquid liners I have used in the past. I thought I would try this cheaper option first before trying other more expensive brands, but I must say I found this one stayed on all day and didn't budge so I'm thinking I'll stick with this one. As I expected, the brush that came with it wasn't ideal but that doesn't bother me as I have other brushes. Very impressed!

Lips -Yves Saint Laurent - Rouge Pur Couture Glossy Stain (All Shades)
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 3:36:00 AM
Obsessed! I have #16, a kind of purple-pink, and the colour is stunning. I find the colour stays intense, even when doing lots of eating and drinking on a night out. I will probably buy this in every colour now.

Eye Shadow -Revlon - Colorstay 12-Hour Eyeshadow Quad "Blushed Wines"
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 3:18:00 AM
I have used these eyeshadows to death, I adore them. All 4 shades are stunning and really good quality. Not too much to wear to work, but something different than the browns that I often wear. My eyes are brown, but this palette really brings out the green in them and I received many compliments about my eyes when wearing these. Will definately repurchase.

Eye Shadow -Revlon - CustomEyes Shadow Liner Palette in Sweet Innocence
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 3:09:00 AM
Pretty disappointed in these eye shadows. The colours are lovely, but they do not go on very strong or pigmented. Revlon's colorstay eyeshadows are far better in my opinion, 'Blushed Wines' has similar colours to this palette.

Hair -Klorane - Dry shampoo
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 2:58:00 AM
Easily the best dry shampoo I've tried. Works well, even on dark hair! I also have a sensitive scalp and this is the only dry shampoo that hasn't irritated my skin. Can't live without this.

Loose Powders -MAC - Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 2:49:00 AM
I love this product! I use it over my face and body foundation to remove some of the shine, and it still looks natural. However, its not the kind of product I can take 'on the go' with me as it is a bit messy so I use another blot powder if needed hours later while at work or out. I still find it amazing despite this and is part of my everyday routine.

Moisturizers -Pro Activ - Green Tea Moisturizer
ShahnaG 6/5/2012 2:35:00 AM
I love the way this makes my skin feel hydrated without getting oily or sticky. I do not use any other pro activ products, I find them too harsh for my skin so I was shocked at how much I enjoyed this moisturizer. I will repurchase this product, although I admit I am still looking if there is something even better.
