Blush -Giorgio Armani - Sheer Cream Blush #2
belly 10/6/2003 5:12:00 AM
#2 is a sheer shimmery pink on pot but goes on NO COLOR on me. Imagine MAC subtropical cheekstain and if you own MAC's already, you don't really need GA's. Lovely texture and its elegant packaging were the reasons why I got this. =P

I'm now tanned (GA MSF #6.5+) and this blush has the SAME result with Benefit's dandelion on me. I love both but I bet they are pretty different on PPP/LLL faces. =)

Toners -Bobbi Brown - SOOTHING FACE TONIC
belly 9/26/2003 2:45:00 AM
Firstly, the glass bottle is simply gorgeous for this reasonable price (HK$200/200ml bottle) and half bottle lasts me more than half year, so worth it. It has a refreshing smell when applying it. I apply this tonic with a cotton pad and it helps cleaning out all my makeup residue even I use cleansing oil + cleansing wipes to remove my makeup already. Would definitely re-purchase~

Moisturizers -Bobbi Brown - Vitamin Enriched Face Base

Tried on a sample of this cream and then I bought a full size jar immediately once it's out here. It has a great refreshing smell and I truly feel my skin texture has been improved since using this cream. Not expensive at all (HK$350/50ml tub) and the glass container is just beautiful. Would definitely re-purchase.

Concealers -Kevyn Aucoin - The Sensual Skin Enhancer
belly 8/19/2003 11:46:00 PM
The best cream concealer/foundation that I've ever tried. This is way better than CDP's, which costed me hk$400. Price is more or less the same with the SSE actually but SSE does a better job, great coverage and can be used as concealer and foundation. I use as both and no further undereye concealer needed. I bought a shade SX-08 and I use GA MSF #6.5, great match. Am thinking to buy a lighter shade for winter~

Crème -Cle de Peau - Cream Foundation
belly 8/7/2003 10:00:00 PM
Got a sample of this when I bought the concealer. I couldn't blend it evenly on my face at first, and then I moisturized my face with BB spf25 balm (you know, greasy!!!), I could blend it really well. However, it DOESN'T control oil, my face turns oily (especially nose!!!) within 3 hours. I like GA MSF way more!!!! I definitely won't pay a full size retail price (hk$800) for a NOTHING SPECIAL foundation, the deluxe sample pot lasts me really long though. I actualy think this brand is over-rated, coz the concealer doesn't work on me as well~

Makeup Brushes -Stila - #20 Eye Enhancer Brush
belly 7/17/2003 12:54:00 AM
I finally got this brush from a swap and this is so far the best eye shadow brushes I have ever tried. The angled side helps me apply e/s at the outer corners very nicely and easily while I use the pointy side for lower lashlines. Great brush, but US$32 is too expensive in my opinion, glad I got this from swap~ =D

Lip Gloss -Giorgio Armani - Shine Gloss #4
belly 7/13/2003 10:59:00 PM
I'm actually not a lipgloss girl because I have long hair (hate how my hair sticks to my lip). However, when I first saw this lipgloss (looks dark bronzey brown in the tube) and tried this on hand, I knew I should buy this. It goes on very sheer with hint of brownish shade, without obvious gold shimmers. I like this, not too pricey as other GA stuff imo (HK$135/tube).

Bronzers -Giorgio Armani - Bronze Mania Powder
belly 7/13/2003 10:56:00 PM
I liked BB shimmerbrick a lot before I tried this one. I used once for blush and it looked great, a very natural bronzy brown and used once for overall bronzer, very natural as well. I like the texture as well, pricey but definitely worths every penny.

Blush -Giorgio Armani - Bronze Mania Cream Blush
belly 7/13/2003 10:54:00 PM
The best bronze cream blush that I've ever tried. It looks redish bronze in the container but goes on very sheer coppery bronze on face, great for my sun-tanned look now.

Eye Shadow -Stila - Italian Ices Trio in Uno (Blue)
belly 7/2/2003 11:56:00 PM
This trio *looks* amazing, but I wish the e/s in it could be more pigmented. Perhaps texture of these 3 eye shadows are silky, they go on very sheer on eyes. Would work for someone who likes natural eyes but not me.

Eye Shadow -Stila - Winter Blues Trio
belly 7/2/2003 11:49:00 PM
I'm glad I finally got this trio after lemming for ages. It looks good on both LLL (my original skin tone) and MMM (my skin tone now in summer after tanned). The texture of these 3 eye shadows seem even smoother than other Stila e/s that I tried. Would definitely buy another one if I could finish this huge trio (impossible though).

Concealers -Kesalan Patharan - Stick Concealer

I have it in #103 which the SA says it works better for undereye circles for my LLL skin complexion. I just want to say, it works even better and half-priced of CDP's.
