Polishes -OPI - Dulce de Leche
VivaLaEleanor 8/5/2011 10:07:00 PM
Such a pretty pinky nude color! Normally i go for more sheer light pinks and neutrals (Essie Sugar Daddy, China Glaze Heaven, Etc). When I want to look more polished and classy though, this color is perfection! It would go with like 95% of skin tones and looks super refined, yet still trendy. I would totally recommend.

Blush -NARS - Angelika
VivaLaEleanor 6/11/2011 1:00:00 AM
This is a gorgeous, surprisingly natural blush! This looks crazy in the pan, a bubblegum pink with lotsss of sparkle. However, on the cheek it looks actually kind of natural and extremely pretty. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a natural, girly pink.

Eye Shadow -NARS - Dogon Duo
VivaLaEleanor 6/11/2011 12:52:00 AM
OH DOGON HOW I LOVE YOUUUUUU! These are literally two of my favorite eyeshadows ever. It comes with a beautiful duochrome icy taupe and a smokey teal black. The taupe is a wonderful everyday neutral with a little bit of intrigue and fine shimmer. The two colors look great together and apart and I couldn't recommend this duo more. Don't miss out on this!

Tinted Moisturizer -Stila - NEW Stila Sheer Color Oil-Free SPF20
VivaLaEleanor 6/11/2011 12:41:00 AM
I got this product a few months ago and was super underwhelmed. It seemed too sheer, just kind of a useless product. But the other day when my skin felt a little dry, I reached for this and was pleasantly surprised! I realized that the trick to getting this to look good was in the application. Before, I treated it like other tinted moisturizers and sheer foundations that dry very quickly and have more coverage than this product. I would apply a very thin layer and blend very quickly. However, these work the best when applied in a completely different way. Now, I apply a thicker layer and blend more slowly with my fingers. The finish this gives is AMAZING! It feels soo amazing on the skin as well, very creamy but still light and fresh feeling. The coverage is light, but can be improved with a powder. I use MAC Msfn and it looks super gorgeous and natural.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Tissueweight
VivaLaEleanor 12/11/2010 7:30:00 PM
This is definitely one of my favorite MAC eyeshadows! It's just a very light nude peach, that can be used in an infinite number of ways. It's so versatile, and the subtle shimmer is gorgeous. It makes my eyes look lit from within :)

Concealers -BeneFit Cosmetics - Boi-ing
VivaLaEleanor 8/1/2010 8:57:00 PM
I actually really like this as a blemish concealer. The color that I got, 01, is a nice match for my NW25 skin. I've found that with a lot of concealers, if they are creamy at all, then they are terribly sheer. However, the texture of this is sooo nice, and it is very pigmented. This works great to add more coverage under a t/m or just a powder. I would definately repurchase. I don't understand all the bad reviews!

Eye Shadow -Wet 'n' Wild - ColorIcon Palette in Lust [DISCONTINUED]
VivaLaEleanor 7/8/2010 11:22:00 PM
This is good eyeshadow.. for the drugstore. The colors are not chalky, and quite pigmented. But the texture is lacking somewhat, as the colors are not buttery at all, and almost like rough if that makes sense. But I think this is good for the price. (:

Highlighters -Bobbi Brown - Platinum pink shimmer brick
VivaLaEleanor 7/8/2010 11:10:00 PM
This is a great highlighter, that I use on days that I want a more intense glow. It has soo much beautiful shimmer, and a great champagne-y pink base. It looks so beautiful in the pan, and the packaging is great! I definitely want to get more of these shimmer brickss.

Polishes -OPI - Tickle my France-y
VivaLaEleanor 7/8/2010 10:39:00 PM
This is a beautiful and distinct color. It's like a blend of the taupey-grey colors that were popular this fall, and a pretty pink. It's hard to explain, but it comes out wearable, edgy, and put together at the same time. It is kinda sheer, but can be built up to be more true to color.

Lip Gloss -Chanel - sundress glossimer
VivaLaEleanor 7/8/2010 10:34:00 PM
Oh. My. God. This is my first Glossimer, and I have to say, I am going to buy these for a looooong time. This color is a perfect MLBB. It's a neutral pink with gold pearly shimmer. I think so many skin tones could pull this off easily. When I first brought this home, I was afraid it was too close to Nymphette by MAC. Though the concepts are similar, this is much less warm, and it is so much smoother and more pigmented. This is so worth it and so amazing.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Night Manoeuvres
VivaLaEleanor 7/8/2010 2:20:00 AM
This is a great multipurpose, unique color. It's like a blackened taupe with silver and blue shimmer. I love it as a liner, or outer v color (:

Eye Shadow -MAC - Et Tu, Bouquet?
VivaLaEleanor 7/8/2010 2:13:00 AM
I love this color as a sheer lid wash. It's very unique, as it is a neutral pink, but it is also very cool and grey toned. So this works well as a frosty sheer color on pink toned skin (:

Eye Shadow -MAC - Tempting (LUSTRE)
VivaLaEleanor 7/8/2010 2:02:00 AM
This is a great warm brown color with TONS of gold glitter. It reminds me of Woodwinked, but more wearable and less orange imo. The glitter is very prominent, but there is no fallout. The texture is a bit gritty, but I don't mind.

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Perfumer's Workshop Tea Rose
VivaLaEleanor 7/8/2010 2:00:00 AM
This is a very unique scent. It's just FLORAL.. nothing but roses and big flowers.. It actually smells like Cabbage Patch Kids, if anyone remembers how they smell haha! It is *extremely* strong.. And it is so easy to go overboard, so I like layering this with a fruitier body spray, like one of the VS Pink ones and just putting half a spray on my wrists. This is a really nice, cheap fragrance to have.
