Lip Gloss -MAC - Lipglass - Lovechild
VanityIVever 6/11/2003 2:19:00 AM
I love this color. It is a beautiful rose-plum shade on me with gold shimmer. It really brightens my face and looks great on top of Avon Crushed Rose lipstick. This is my favorite lipglass shade for the winter months.

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Midnight Cowboy
VanityIVever 6/11/2003 2:15:00 AM
This is a really pretty soft beige with tons of microglitter. I really wouldn't wear this during the day because it has so much glitter(and it does tend to get all over your face), but it's awesome for nights out. The pigment in this shade is amazing and the packaging is so cute...even though I do prefer the old style tins.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Entice lipglass
VanityIVever 6/11/2003 2:11:00 AM
This is a really nice peachy-nude shade on me(C40/GGG) that has just a hint of shimmer. This goes really well with Rimmel Tiramisu l/l.

Bronzers -Maybelline - Copper Cabana
VanityIVever 6/11/2003 2:07:00 AM
This gives my GGG MAC C40 skins a very nice glow. It's a beautiful terracotta shade with a bit of shimmer. It's great for just a hint of color without looking dirty or to shimmery as some bronzers tend to be.

Concealers -MAC - Studio Finish Concealer
VanityIVever 6/11/2003 2:04:00 AM
I love this concealer. It covers the marks I have from old breakouts very well. It also works well as an eyeshadow base. I do prefer another concealer for the under eye area because this one does tend to be a bit dry and causes me to have to tug at the area to blend it in. I use this in C35 which is a good match in the winter, but is a tad off in the summer time. I only took one lipstick away from the overall rating because I wish they had as varied a color selection for the concealer as the do for the foundations.

Powder -MAC - Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation
VanityIVever 6/11/2003 1:57:00 AM
This is the best powder foundation that I have tried so far. It makes my oily/acne-prone skin look flawless. I have very large, noticeable pores and this covers them nicely. I wear C40 which is the perfect match for my hard to match yellow-olive toned skin. It gives nice light-medium coverage. I noticed a lot of other people who reviewed this product experienced breakouts. I've noticed this too, but I dont think it's from the product itself, but from the sponge. As long as I change the sponge ever 1-2 mos I dont have this problem.

Liquid -Maybelline - Shine Free [DISCONTINUED]

My oily acne prone skin is very picky with what I use on it, and I try to steer clear of drugstore foundations, but I ran out of my Clinique Stay True so I bought this to use just for a day until I could get to the Clinique counter. I love this stuff, excellent medium coverage, great color match(had just enough yellow, which is rare in drugstore foundations), controls the greasies, and no breakouts. It's my new holy grail and only cost me $4.88!! I don't think I'm going to go back to the Clinique after finding this.

Eyes -Rimmel - Liquid Liner
VanityIVever 12/6/2001 10:16:00 PM
This is the worst liquid liner I have ever used. I bought the black color and the stuff has absolutely no pigment. I had to go ver my line 3 times just to get the desired effect. It's also messy, it ran into my lashes and gunked them up. The brush is too flimsy also. While the price is nice, I find that it's true that you get what you pay for when it comes to Rimmel's liquid liner.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Motif eyeshadow
VanityIVever 12/3/2001 6:10:00 PM
Gorgeous shadow!!!! In the package it resembles a goldenrod color...almost like the insides of a pumpkin, but brush it onto your lids and you are rewarded with the most beautiful pinky-opal color!! Apply a gold/bronze shadow as a base coat and more of the goldenrod color shows through, but when the light hits it at certain angles, it flashes the pinky-opal color!! This is too pretty!

Pressed Powders -MAC - Blot Powder
VanityIVever 12/1/2001 8:33:00 PM
This is excellent and getting rid of shine, the best product I've ever tried for this purpose. I have it in Dark and it doesn't cake up and get chalky like pressed powders and powder papers usually do. I highly recommend this. The price ($14.50 US) is nice too for the quality of this product.
