Blush -Korres - Zea Mays Powder blush in 16 Pink
avantgardelovers 9/9/2011 12:00:00 PM
The prettiest, most perfect pink on the planet! Usually pink blushes look terrible on me, but this gives me such a beautiful glow! i've never gotten so many compliments on my complexion before and i have this little baby to thank... i'm definitely loving the whole korres line.

Primer/ Corrector -Korres - Silicone-Free Face Primer
avantgardelovers 9/9/2011 11:53:00 AM
I can't wear anything with dimethicone (i get the worst breakouts EVER and it's in EVERYTHING) so it really limits the products I can use. This is the only primer that healed up all my old blemishes from my dimethicone days and provides a canvas for flawless makeup application. I've been wearing it for a week and people keep telling me how beautiful my skin looks. I wear this under my Mineral Fusion mineral powder foundation and dust some Korres Pink Blush on top! give it a try if you're sensitive to silicone

Lipstick -MAC - Cremesheen- Modesty
avantgardelovers 3/20/2011 10:03:00 PM
AHHHH~ I really think I found my perfect HG lipstick and nude! Makes my lips look amazing! I've been trying to find something to tone down my bright red lips without being too dark, or washing me out completely and this is it! Try it! the formula is wonderful and the color lasts a good 3 hours before needing to reapply, longer if you don't eat or drink :)

Tinted Moisturizer -Tarte - Amazonian Clay BB Tinted Mosturizer (Smooth Operator)
avantgardelovers 2/9/2011 8:49:00 PM
HG! Finally! Everytime i review a foundation I think it's THE one, however, I always find about two weeks in I start breaking out big time! So after after being unhappy with my skin for the last year and a half (about the time I started wearing foundation), I realized that my skin hates ANY type of silicone. I was feeling bummed out, and I remember watching a random youtube video about a girl with similar foundation problems as me, and she raved about tarte's smooth operator, about how it transformed her skin. So i waited two months before I wrote a review, and it is truly my HG! My skin has mostly cleared up, and I find that I wear less makeup on my face now. I have one or two active pimples but i have a feeling it's because I'm sensitive to dimethicone.... I love the squeeze tube bottle, and I smear about a pea sized amount on everyday with my fingers or a brush. My skin looks luminous, I get loads of compliments, it last all day, and the best part is it looks like i'm running around make up free! Give it a try!

Liquid -NARS - Sheer Glow Foundation
avantgardelovers 8/5/2010 10:06:00 PM
i love how this goes on very lightly, and if you just dip a q-tip inside you can smooth it onto your skin like a tinted moisturizer almost. i just love that it evens out my skin, gives it a nice glow, doesn't make me oily, and looks natural. i find that when i use any short of foundation brush it looks heavy and a bit cakey, however when i stick to using my fingers it makes my skin BEAUTIFUL im a happy camper :) ive ran around the bend trying out numerous amounts of foundations and haven't really been happy with anything else.

Blush -MAC - Mineralize Blush - Warm Soul
avantgardelovers 8/4/2010 6:01:00 PM
oooo i love this! it's so pretty! it's a warm bronzy rose color without being dark or too red. very buildable, looks great on half asian skin (and probably any other skin type as well)! sometimes blush makes me look too red, but this gives such a nice healthy glow, it's truly beautiful!

Lipstick -Chanel - Rouge Coco Chintz

gorgeous formula, but if you have bright red lips like me it barely shows up, maybe gives your lips a peachy cast? wasn't my thing

Lipstick -Chanel - Rouge Allure - Mythic 69
avantgardelovers 7/18/2010 5:45:00 PM
I love the packaging! Not as long lasting as the Rouge Coco line, but this is my HG nude. Goes on like a gloss and great for layering. It's a sheer beige, so versatile because it can be layered over diff. liners/ mixed with other lippies and glosses. For reference I'm half asian/ half swedish fair skin with slight yellow undertones

Lipstick -Chanel - Rouge Coco in Mademoiselle 05
avantgardelovers 7/12/2010 9:46:00 AM
This is SOOO pretty. It is hands down the best lipstick I have ever tried, and I've tried ALOT. It actually lasts hours, keeps your lips moisturized, and is just so comfortable on your lips! Mademoiselle on me is a very wearable everyday grown up color. Using I like to wear pinky or peachy nudes, this is more of a.... pinky rose? I feel very sophisticated when I'm wearing it. Thank you CHANEL for making the best lipstick ever!
