Mascara -Lancome - Courbe Virtuose (Divine Lasting Curves)
baronesserl 7/23/2012 2:01:00 PM
I love this mascara, it's my absolute favourite. It separates the lashes, gives them great volume and fans them out so beautifully! I think it gets better with usage as it can be a bit too wet in the beginning but as soon as it gets a little drier it's absolutely perfect. Definitly worth buying!

This my HG foundation. It's matte, it has got really good coverage and it does not get shiney or cakey. Makes my skin look absolutely flawless and 'elegant'. Stays put all day even when it's extremely hot and/or damp.

Concealers -Bobbi Brown - Corrector

I don't have very dark circles under my eyes but this managed to make them look really dark and violet. It made me look tired, ill and coarse. As soon as I got home from the BB tutorial I removed both the foundation and the corrector because I couldn't bear to look at myself in the mirror. I mean what's the use of products that are so sheer??? I look better without makeup.

Liquid -Bobbi Brown - Natural Finish- Long Lasting Foundation SPF 15 [DISCONTINUED]
baronesserl 7/23/2012 1:02:00 PM
What a disappointment!!! The worst foundation I've ever tried: little coverage, feels oily on the skin, awful colour...when I looked in the mirror I saw a coarse version of myself. The corrector is just as terrible...Bobbi Brown...never ever again!

Liquid -Yves Saint Laurent - TEINT RESIST Long Wear Transfer Resistant Foundation

This is a real disappointment: coverage is light to medium, needs to be layered to achieve a nice polished look, started to get patchy and cakey within an hour and it didn't feel nice on my skin, rather like some v e r y cheap drugstore foundation. Will not even finish the bottle, horrible stuff, completely overpriced.

Liquid -Clarins - Everlasting Foundation SPF 15

Rather disappointed with this one. 2 hours after applying there was hardly any foundation left on my nose and it did feely quite oily on my cheeks which are actually the dry part of my combo skin so they'd need moisturizing. For the moment I'll stick to Colorstay which provides way better staying power and matting.

Love this shampoo! My hair is blonde, long and really dry, lately it looked...well...dead is the word, even a new haircut didn't help a lot but this shampoo really made all the difference-shiny, healthy looking hair. Way better than the sheer blonde line.

Mascara -Prestige - My Biggest Lashes
baronesserl 9/3/2011 7:02:00 AM
This is such a disappointment!!! The brush is way too big, the formula way too thin, lashes stick together and looking at myself in the mirror I can hardly see my lashes though I applied 3 coats. Worst mascara ever, goes right in the bin.

Really love this foundation!!! I have been using Dior Forever for the past 4 years but somehow for the last 6 months I wasn't that content with it any more, started to dry my skin on the cheeks and got extremely oily and shiny in the t-zone. This foundation however does not, it stays put all day and it gives a wonderful powdery and matte finsh but not dry or masklike, really like what I see in the mirror ;-) If you want a really good foundation at a bargain price then go for this one, I think it will beat any highend product, and that is something from someone who always though fondation was the only thing that had to be expensive to be really good!

Fragrances -Christian Dior - Forever and Ever

This is my signature scent, lovely and floral and not sweet at all which is big bonus for me. Really young and at the same time elegant. The only downside is that there is no body lotion to match this which I'd really love as a body lotion always underlines the scent. But other than this utterly recommendable to any girl who wants a classy, young and chic scent.

Eye Primer -Smashbox - Photo Finish Lid Primer
baronesserl 5/23/2011 4:52:00 AM
I'm really astonished nobody seems to like this...I really like it and what I like about it is that it doesn't change the finish of the eyeshadow hence it is a really good product for daywear, I mean I don't want my eyehsadow to go metallic or glitzy in the daytime which is a problem for me with other primers I have tested. Also, the eyeshadow stays put all day long even when I've spent 2 hours in broad sunlight. What I don't like is the wand, I think a tube similar to the Too Faced primer would be a lot better.

Mascara -MAC - Haute & Naughty Lash

This would be my HG mascara...if it hadn't irritated my eyes 5 minutes after applying it. With both sides you get seperated, long and voluminous lashes as though you're wearing falsies but if you've got sensitive eyes this is not for you.

My HG blusher, absolutely and totally recommandable! Lovely and fresh pink, stays all day and the price is good considering that I've been using this for a year and there's still 1/4 left!

This is really suited for 80+ ladies and I'm not sure they'd like it. Though not as bad as Spellbound it is also very heavy, very obtrusive. Smells like granny's clothes you find in your attic.

After all the good reviews here, I went to the Lauder counter to try it...i can't tell you how disappointed I am. This is so awful. A disgusting, heavy scent with way too much incense.To me it smells cheap and vulgar.
