Eye Primer -Fyrinnae - Pixie Epoxy

already repurchased this, its a staple. Transforms my cheap ds e/s into really pigmented HE quality stuff, if it wasn't for the colour range I'd stop buying HE altogether. You do need a bit more than the 'teeniest tiniest bit' (which is what their website states) but its still really cheap for the amount you get. Brilliant stuff!

Fragrances -Lolita Lempicka - L de Lolita Lempicka

I've been using this ever since I got it, an absolutely amazing scent. There is nothing old lady about it (I'm 20 and think this is going to be my perfect signature fragrance). The sweet notes of vanilla and white chocolate are just heavenly. It has great lasting power, and I will absolutly repurchase when i run out

Eye Shadow -Fyrinnae - Loose Eye Shadow in Rapunzel Had Extensions
Xandrra 11/15/2010 6:48:00 PM
The product overall is excellent,very finely milled and great quality in terms of colour pay off and wear. Unfortunately the pink duochrome barely dhows up on me, and it looks almost acid yellow for some reason. Not a nice look :/ for this reason I woulf not repurchase. UD's X is a much less yellow, subtle version of this and I think I'll stick to that instead

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Sin Eyeshadow
Xandrra 10/20/2010 3:01:00 PM
I don't really get the hype surrounding this. I have 2 other shades similar to this, MAC Jest and UD Sellout. Both perform much better. Jest is more pink a bit lighter and frostier but so much more better pigmented. Sellout is basically the same colour, except again it has superior pigmentation. This tends to go on in little clumps (as if it balls up) and unevenly, have to continually keep dipping my brush in. Would not repurchase.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Ricepaper Eyeshadow
Xandrra 10/19/2010 6:31:00 PM
I wanted this for ages, and was nothing but disappointed when I got it. Its way too yellow to be used as a highlighter (however, mixed with nylon it works wonderfully), and when I try to do it as an all over lid wash, it comes out very very patchy. Never had an e/s do this to me. edit: tried this with a sparse highlighter brush and it went on wonderfully, no more patchiness!! I guess not using a dense brush was the trick. Gave my lids a very natural, MLidBB look, wore it 5 days in a row, i think I'm in love now <3

Eye Shadow -MAC - Paradisco (Frost)
Xandrra 10/19/2010 6:21:00 PM
I was instantly drawn to this colour the moment I swatched it. Such a gorgeous coral! Unfortunately when I got home and played around with it the pigmentation wasn't great. This is good in that the colour is quite subtle and day time appropriate, however I do think the quality could be much better. If you want it brighter try layering over pixie epoxy, does the trick for me :) I would definitely repurchase if I run out because I find it so easy to wear, but if I find a more pigmented dupe I wont be coming back for it

Lipstick -Revlon - Super Lustrous Lipstick - Softsilver Rose
Xandrra 6/19/2010 6:22:00 PM
Ok, I absolutely hated this when I tried it after buying it. Like the poster below me mentioned, it looked like something an old lady from the 60's would wear. But this looks seriously stunning on me now that I got tanned, I'm amazed at what a difference my skin tone made. I top it off with Bourjois no.7 gloss, which takes away a good bit of the purply pinkishness aswell, and it just looks amazing :) I'm not sure if I would repurchase, but I'll just tick no for now, because I've yet to get used to liking it

Lip Gloss -Revlon - Creme lipgloss [DISCONTINUED]
Xandrra 5/31/2010 6:58:00 AM
I'm neutral about this product, I'll use up what I have but I don't think I'll buy again: PROS: very opaque, its like liquid lipstick, I love the coverage it gives me. CONS *I found the clicky applicator annoying. First of all its too noisy, I'd feel embarased to use this in public simply because of the huge CLICKITY CLICK when I twist it. It either dispenses very little product, or too much, its hard to get the perfect combo. * the brush is also too long and thick to allow for good contouring of the lips Besically, the quality is good, the design is horrid.

Lip Gloss -Rimmel - Volume Boost Liquid Lipcolour
Xandrra 5/31/2010 6:52:00 AM
I love this product!here's why: *I bought it mainly for the brush applicator, which disturbs my lipstick less than a doe foot one. *I find brushes are generally better at picking up product, some of my doe foot applicators pick up so little I have to apply ten coats with them, its frustrating! *this does NOT BLEED, it knows its place on my lips and will not budge, I'm so glad I finally found a clear gloss lke this *it is not too sticky or too liquidy I don't like the tingling since it doesn't volumise, I really wish this was just a regular gloss instead of a plumping one. it doesn't last very long, but I've yet to find a gloss that does. Overall I would definitely repurchase

Eyeliner -Urban Decay - 24-7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Zero
Xandrra 5/14/2010 7:30:00 PM
I have two minis of these from BoS 2 and the AiW palette, and they are all for swap now. I used the first one and while it is extremely pigmented and creamy, it smudged like crazy on me, wouldn't set with eyeshadow. Also, they do NOT come out on the waterline. If e/l don't tend to smudge on you these will be great, however, I don't think I'll ever repurchase.

Conditioner -Jason Natural Cosmetics - Jason Natural Sea Kelp Conditioner
Xandrra 5/14/2010 6:58:00 PM
Wonderful product! I have blonde, highlighted fine hair. This product leaves it silky soft and shiny, without being weighted down. I honestly can't stop running my fingers through my hair after I use this. I don't remember it having a pleasant or unpleasant arome, I'm kind of neutral about it. Don't think it leaves much of a smell in my hair either, but thats good because I don't like when the smell of my hair mixes with the smell of my perfume :) I do not lile the design of the bottle at all, however this is my only gripe with it. Its good value for a lot of product and I will definitely repurchase

Mascara -Max Factor - False lash effect
Xandrra 5/12/2010 11:46:00 AM
this looks exactly like Masterpiece when applied :) except the formula is wetter and takes longer to dry. Once its dried there's nada diffrence. Oh and the massive bursh is extremely clumsy and smudges everywhere, there's so much product at the end of it that my outer lashes are constantly one big giant ball of mascara everytime I apply this. Absolutely awful, I don't know who designed that brush, but they must have some kind of massive eyes to think it would be comfotable in any way. Will not repurchase again, at least it taught me to stay away from big brushes, was bound to make that mistake sometime in the future

Lipstick -Revlon - Matte Lipstick - Pink About It [DISCONTINUED]
Xandrra 5/12/2010 11:28:00 AM
This is surprisingly an MLBB colour for me! If I apply just one swipe my lips look brighter and pronounced, without looking garish or over the top. It surprisingly looks quite natural if you don't use too much. It shows up more coral than pink on me and I love it! Such a beautiful colour! It doesn't glide on as smoothly as the pearl lipsticks, but I'd repurchase regardless

Lipstick -Revlon - Super Lustrous Lipstick in Highbeam Tan
Xandrra 5/12/2010 11:18:00 AM
The colour of this does not suit me, but I'm trying to make it work with different glosses. The quality itself is brilliant, very creamy and pigmented, glides on so smooothly! Would look brilliant on tanned skintones with brown/dark hair, its such a lovely chocolaty colour :) (too bad I can't pull off dark e/s or l/s)
