Candles -Unlisted Brand - Luna Bleu
SoPolished 12/29/2012 12:36:00 AM
Every time I have ordered from Lunableu- shipping has been slow. I have enjoyed the products and have been faithful and patient. My most recent order was placed 17 November. About a month later I sent an inquiry and was told that my items would be shipped "tomorrow". Today is December 28th and I have nothing. Currently my emails are going ignored. I've asked for another update and then a refund-- both ignored. Today I informed this seller that I would be filing a paypal dispute. Be very careful here.....

Lotions/ Creams -Bliss Labs - Get Out Of Hair! 3-in-1 Magically Minimizing Moisture Milk
SoPolished 9/24/2009 8:16:00 AM
Don't bother. I bought this on sale- thank goodness because it is normally in the $30 range. This stuff...doesn't do a thing....Ive used it for 6 weeks, consistently, daily....and the hair growth on my legs- is EXACTLY the same. Seriously- don't waste your money on this. And- as an added bonus, it smells bad.

Lipstick -MAC - Hold the Pose
SoPolished 8/30/2009 12:45:00 AM
This is a beautiful lipstick. It is even stunning to look at just in the tube. It doesnt have alot of color pay-off (though it certainly has more than most of my other lustres) but that is not as important to me as I LOVE sheer colors. And this is a little more opaque than most Lustres (imo) so that shoule be a + for some. I would describe this as a warm plum color with gold and copper flecks of shimmer. The shimmer is lovely- it's noticeable but not so much that it makes the l/s unwearable- which was what I disliked about MAC Dazzleglass lip glosses. This is what I wanted those to be- in a lipstick. Its shimmer is small and dense a shows up as a gorgeous sheen. I also think that this is a unique color, I dont really have anything else like it. I would say the closest in my collection is Chanel Panarea....but this is creamier and more opaque than that one. Actually, had I known about this- I would have never spent so much money on the Chanel- because I prefer this one. Too bad this is LE!

This is a mess. I loved the idea, a brush inside of the plastic....seems wonderful in theory....but this is a dry, clumpy mess. Dont bother. Im taking this back tomorrow....a waste of $9....

Lip Liners -Chanel - Precision Lip Definer Nude
SoPolished 7/12/2009 5:38:00 AM
Ok so it goes without saying that Chanel products are ridiculously over priced. And- I will never agree that the quality justifies it....I have had many drug store products that were just as good as many HE products. Enough about that. This color is gorgeous. Really, truly gorgeous. It is a frosted pink/brown/copper sort of color. Very hard to describe. It is very close in color to another of my favorite lip liners, Estee Lauder Mocha Writer. Mocha Writer is a bit lighter and has slightly less pink in it. This is, imo- a cool toned brown lip liner, if that is possible. I wear it with many lipsticks and lip glosses. My favorite combo is this lip liner with Chanel Glossimer in Summer Plum....well blended it makes such a beautiful color. But I also wear it with clear lip gloss. I have worn it with some of the following lip sticks: MAC Viva Glam V MAC Naked Paris MAC Sophisto Chanel Panarea MAC Fresh Brew Chanel Salinas MAC Boy Bait And- I think I have worn it with almost all of my sheer MAC and Chanel lip glosses....and I have MANY... All of these looked great- and what is really nice about this lip liner is the brush on the other end, love that. And of course Chanel lip liners are super long. Which they should be, considering the price!!!! I wish they would eliminate the sharpener and lower the price a bit. I dont need a new sharpener with EVERY lip liner I buy!!!! A must have- definitely a HG for me.

Lipstick -MAC - Lustre in Sophisto
SoPolished 7/8/2009 3:08:00 PM
Great color. I bought this online and knew it to be a lustre, but when it arrived and I opened it, it looked like it was going to be a frost finish. And I was disappointed because I generally dislike frost finishes.... I was totally wrong. It doesnt look so good in the tube, but its lovely on. Its sort of a berry/brown/plum with a nice, soft, shimmery finish. Its not too cool, which is a nice change in a berry/plum family shade.... This was my favorite MAC lipstick until I found Naked Paris, but I will definitely always have a tube of this on hand.... I love MAC Lustre lipsticks, and I get so excited when there is a new pretty color that actually looks good on me. Im a hard one, I have darker auburn hair and VERY fair skin, NC20....bright or cool tones look just awful on me, even though I am always drawn to them.... This appears cool in the tube, but on me it is a warm, sheer wash of berry/brown. Definitely a must have color IMO.

Lipstick -MAC - Naked Paris
SoPolished 7/8/2009 3:00:00 PM
I think this might be the prettiest lipstick I have ever seen. Im SO glad I got it. It is a plum-brown...mid tone, dusty.....warm- with the most beautiful shimmer/pearl. It looks good with ALL of my lip liners and even looks great swiped on in a hurry. Im very fair, NC20 and its not too brown or too cool.......its just right. LOVE this one, will likely buy a back up.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Via Veneto Dazzleglass

This is too irridescent and too glittery for me. I wanted to love it, thought I would from the swatches....but when I put it on....all I see is irridescent blue-ish glitter in clear opalescent gloss. Looked terrible on me.... back it goes... Quality, scent, brush.....all great.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Dazzle Glass Roman Holiday
SoPolished 7/8/2009 2:53:00 PM
I really, reallly don't like these. I keep trying to like them, have tried most of the colors and for my taste, there is just way too much glitter. This one for example....is a shade of pink that is sort of YLBB....with chunks of glitter that remind me of the type I played with in grade school.... Not for me. Great quality of course and love the brush....

This is great cream!! I love the consistency, and how it smells. It definitely made my feet nice and soft. I use it at night if I can remember and every morning when I get out of the shower. I wish it came in a larger, pump bottle.... I even use this on my hands sometimes....

Styling Products -Unlisted Brand - FX Special Effects Curls Up Curl Reactivator & Defrizzant
SoPolished 6/27/2009 3:46:00 PM
Pretty good product, Id definitely buy this again- especially on sale. I like that it is a nice, thick consistency- for me that is a plus, because in my experience anti frizz, and products for curly or wavy hair......work better when they are thicker. Thick but easy to distribute, which this is. You can do different things with it. If you use a little (dime sized) you get a soft, sculpted look to your waves ( I have a bit longer than shoulder length, fine, very full/thick hair....and it is also coarse especially underneath). If you use more, you get more sculpted look, more of the look you would get with a gel....but a softer feel. And if you use a large amount (quarter sized or more) on wet hair- you get a gel- like outcome. Not my preference, but the point is.....this is really a versatile product. Smells nice, not expensive....

Lip Gloss -MAC - Queen Bee
SoPolished 6/27/2009 6:50:00 AM
This one is just lovely. Its a peach/apricot shimmer, very pale. It has a gorgeous gold microshimmer to it and I swear I see pale green in the gold shimmer. It isnt yellow-y or harsh at all. Worn alone I see a pale peach shimmer on my lips....over l/s it warms the color ever so slightly and imparts a great shimmer/pearl.... I might need another of these, its a great everyday l/g.

Lip Gloss -MAC - She's a Star
SoPolished 6/27/2009 6:46:00 AM
gorgeous. Its a light, champagne, gold-ish color. Its not heavily pigmented but boy is is super shimmery. What I like is that it isnt so yellow toned that it looks bad on me (yellow toned anything always does). I think would look good with ANY l/s and its just adorable on its own.... Glad I got it. I have a feeling this one might sell out and dissappear...

Wow- I dont think I have every purchased a l/g that looked quite this bad on me. I even tried it with multiple l/s and l/l combinations, but all I got was a weird bronze-y looking dark orange. It looked gorgeous in the tube, but back it goes....
