Moisturizers -Clinique - Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion
alexsoliman 11/27/2001 7:31:00 PM
I really like this product, but it has pros and cons. My skin is especially dry, and on really dry days, I need to add another moisturizer to it. I love it because it goes on non-greasy, spreads nicely, and is unscented. It also absorbs really well, and really fast. Because my skin is so dry, however, I end up using quite a bit, or adding a heavier moisturizer.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Eyeshadow in Electra

A very nice, quite opaque silver (not just frosted white!) for a powder eyeshadow, as opposed to a cream. Great as a fancy base.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Sketch eye shadow
alexsoliman 11/27/2001 7:25:00 PM
This is a great colour, and so versatile. Somewhat similar to trax (a burgundy purple with gold) this is a darker burgundy with gold which is wonderful for mixing. A great combination: MAC Electra over the lid (a great silver shadow) and on the inner lower corner of the eye, and then Sketch in the crease and the outer lid. This looks great (especially for darker skin) and is easy! There are no comparisons to MAC shadows

Conditioner -Clairol - Daily Defense conditioner

I love this conditioner - my hair tangles VERY easily, I have long hair, yet I only need the size of a loonie (dollar coin) to completely detangle my hair - I leaves it shiny when dry...and smells very nice!

Lip Liners -MAC - Lipliner in Spice
alexsoliman 11/26/2001 4:33:00 PM
I like this colour (a warm brown-pink) and it looks good with many of the warm lipsticks, amazingly. I find it bleeds the most obviously of all my lipliners though, and looks pretty bad when it does bleed. To reduce this, I usually put it on OVER the lipstick or lipglass.

Lipstick -MAC - Satin Lipstick - Myth
alexsoliman 11/26/2001 4:30:00 PM
This is a very pale peach colour, that looks very nice moist...watch out - if your lips are chapped, it lookes like you've covered them with cheap concealer! I find the best look is to line with Spice liner, and cover the whole lip with clear Lip Glass. Definitely a look of the 60s though

Lipstick -MAC - Frost Lipstick in Plastique
alexsoliman 11/26/2001 4:27:00 PM
This is a very nice colour I would not have bought had I just tried it on my hand. On me (I have pale skin) it matches the Spice liner perfectly, and is Very smooth - a nice pink-brown-copper colour that looks quite nice, although a lot better in natural than artificial light

Lip Liners -MAC - stone lip penci
alexsoliman 11/26/2001 4:24:00 PM
I usually overlook colours like this - a greyish brown - and I have very pale skin - however, the MA recommended I try it with chai lip glass, and it's a perfect combination. So far that's all I wear it with, but its a great liner, doesn't bleed, and emphasises the subtle colour of the chai very well (a pinkish beige).
