Polishes -Milani - Jewel FX Gems
Sparki 2/18/2011 11:54:00 AM
I love this color. I use it to blend "custom" nail polish shades and it looks very festive and fun and flashy and a great way to add a fun little spark to your look, Rated G for gorgeous and X for Xtra gorgeous. The only thing is, it's hard to find because more often than not, I check the store display and they're sold out. I can see why. Would I buy it again? In a flash

Lip Treatments -Nivea - Lip Care - Strawberry
Sparki 7/26/2010 5:40:00 AM
I wrote a glowing review of the Nivea Cherry Lip Care, I think it's some great stuff (even doubles nicely as a cheek blusher) and I had run out, so I zipped into Walgreens to get more. They didn't have the cherry. They had the strawberry, which is just as fabulous. In fact, I may even like it a little bit better. This glossy, moisturizing lip pomade in the glamorous lipstick-like container even has a hint of shimmer/frost that the cherry doesn't AND it has a SUNGUARD! (SPF 4). It looks GORGEOUS on my lips -- a rosy, delicately frosty, jewel-like glow. And it's very emollient and leaves my lips petal soft and smells and tastes divine (for oh-so-satisfying kisses). This is truly great stuff and will definitely be a standby for my purse. It also makes a great dress-up lipstick for little girls and a great "training" lip gloss for young teens, that's how gentle it is. I recommend it highly and would repurchase it in half a flash. And it does remind me of the Tinkerbell Strawberry Lip Pomade I wore as a teen. Not to mention it was dirt-cheap! LOVE this stuff!

Lips -Wet 'n' Wild - Mega Mixers in Electric Lemonade 286
Sparki 4/1/2010 5:40:00 AM
Silky-textured emollient lip pomade that leaves lips glossy, glowing, rosy and tasting like lemon hard candies. Fun to use, looks gorgeous, smells and tastes divine -- and I don't mind the container. I do like stick and tube glosses but I can't help but feel glamorous when applying lip gloss from a canister :-)

Lip Gloss -Maybelline - Shine Sensational
Sparki 4/1/2010 5:36:00 AM
This is a thick gel gloss (kind of like the Kissing Slicks I wore in high school or like a Squeezy Lip Smacker) that moisturizes and is scented/flavored. I bought it in Crushed Candy, a delicate silvery-sparkled light pink that smells/tastes of cinnamon candies and makes my lips look like they were painted with moonglow. Would buy again if the price wasn't so steep. Great stuff, even though the price is kinda crazy

Polishes -Sinful - Nail Polish (all colors)
Sparki 4/1/2010 5:28:00 AM
Glamorously gorgeous glosses for tips and tootsies in an assortment of fun-to-wear shades -- as many beautiful colors as OPI and Nicole and the other "salon" brands, but where the "salon" brands cost the earth ($8 bucks for a bottle of nail polish? Are they NUTS? You'd think there was diamond dust in the stuff, for crying in Manhattan!) Sinful polishes are dirt-cheap. The perfect purchase for when you want something fun and pretty to spark up your look that won't break the bank.

Polishes -Milani - Nail Lacquer
Sparki 4/1/2010 5:19:00 AM
These nifty little glosses really are glossy and lots of fun to wear! The colors! Ooh, the colors! Fun, flashy, snappy shades to suit whatever mood you're in, from yellow to purple to electric pink to cobalt blue. (I prefer the frosty colors to the creme ones. I'm all about the sparkle!) Great to wear as is or for custom blending ("frankening") and a fun, cheap way to add spark to your look. I recommend them highly.

Lip Treatments -Chapstick - True Shimmer
Sparki 12/2/2009 4:39:00 AM
Great stuff. A very soothing, moisturizing glossy pomade with candy or beveragelike scent and flavor. Great for when you don't want to do a whole face of makeup but feel you need SOMETHING to feel beautiful. A delicate, shimmery, sparkly-frosty tint, more of a glow, really. A soft glow. Moisturizing, looks gorgeous, makes lips and kisses smell and taste divine, and just plain fun to wear. And at $2.99, a steal! I've only seen this in the Berry, but if I saw the other flavors, I would get them in a flash.

Lip Treatments -Nivea - A Kiss of Flavor Cherry
Sparki 9/19/2009 3:10:00 AM
This is great stuff. Glossy lip emollient with cherry-candy flavor and fragrance leaves lips satiny, rosy and glowing. Reminiscent of the Tinkerbell Fun Flavor Cherry Lip Pomade I wore as a teen. I rate this a solid 5 lipsticks

Polishes -OPI - Don't toy with me- Holiday in toyland
Sparki 12/4/2008 7:54:00 AM
Glimmery, glowing, fun and frosty, this is a polish shade for all ages and occasions, office or romantic date, seventh-grader or CEO. I love this color and so does my mother, and it looks gorgeous on hands or toes. It's a very frosty flashy fuschia with microsparkles and it makes me feel glamorous. Took off a lipstick for being limited edition. I wish that the honchos at OPI would make it a year-round selection, even if they call it something different

Lip Treatments -Wet 'n' Wild - Juicy Balm
Sparki 6/6/2006 11:51:00 AM
A beauty blast from the past! Slap me sideways if these adorable glosses didn't remind me of the Tinkerbell Fun Flavor Lip Pomades I wore when I was a teenager! Moisturizing, smooth, these big fat beauties give my lips a tantalizing sweetness (great for kissing) and a tender tinted touch of glow. I recommend them very highly

Lip Gloss -Bonne Bell - Squeezy Lip Smacker
Sparki 5/10/2006 12:14:00 AM
The Bonne Bell Smackers folks have done it again! This is super stuff. This is a gel gloss, thick, shiny, and delicately tinted (like the now-defunct Maybelline Kissing Slicks I used to wear in high school except those came in little bottles with a sponge wand and these are in a squeezable tube). I like Mango Berry best. Taste and smell luscious and candylike and oh-so kissworthy. Would I buy it again? Bet on it!

Lip Gloss -Bonne Bell - Lip Smacker in Candy Cane
Sparki 12/6/2005 7:32:00 PM
From the 2005 holiday assortment. Lovely pink gloss/pomade in festive container. Makes my lips a soft, shiny petal pink and as smooth as satin, smelling and tasting of mint. This is a soft, sweet, candylike mint fragrance/flavor, not harsh or medicinal or too menthol-y. Does leave a tingle on the mouth, though, and I love that. I give it a 5. Fun to use, looks gorgeous, moisturizes like nobody's business, makes for scrumptious, refreshing kisses. If only it were available all year round!

Lip Gloss -Bonne Bell - Arctics Peppermint Pattie Lip Smacker
Sparki 11/25/2005 11:52:00 PM
This smells and tastes just as yummy as ARCTIC'S CANDY CANE COCOA from last year's holiday assortment -- in fact, it's the same stuff in a different tube, with a different name, and with a different color -- a dark reddish pink tint that looks GORGEOUS with many of my favorite outfits. More chocolate than mint, but a faint minty tingle on my lips. GREAT stuff. Wonderful for kissing :-)

Lip Gloss -Bonne Bell - Sugars Butter Snowflake Lip Smacker
Sparki 11/25/2005 11:47:00 PM
Warm, sweet, and tasty. This Smacker tastes and smells like butter cookies! Yummy! Perfect for those festive holiday kisses. No color, just leaves lips moist, shiny, and very kissable. Would buy again in a HEARTBEAT. Too bad it's part of the SEASONAL ASSORTMENT.
