Bronzers -Too Faced - Snow Bunny
bleiboo 7/23/2009 8:55:00 AM
Today is the first day I'm using it and I really like it- I don't tend to beak out from powders so touch wood this won't be the exception (will update if I do) It gives a really good 'glow' think I might try it on its own tomorrow (as I have blush on underneath) for ref: NC 30-42 x

Liquid -Bobbi Brown - Skin Foundation SPF 15
bleiboo 7/21/2009 5:49:00 AM
I've had a tester for a week now- ( I always like to see how my skin will react first- my skin can be tempremental!!) and I really like it... the finish is wicked- dewy but not greasy, gives you a lovely 'glow' colour selection is all good but right now I'm tanned and that's always alot easier to match than my usual tone!! I will update if I find that I don't like it for some reason but as it stands I'm a very happuy bunny!!! (the reason I went to this one is because- I love studio fix but it's too matt and I loved the new studio sculpt from mac but it eventually broke me out!!) hope this helps x

Liquid -MAC - Studio Sculpt SPF 15 Foundation
bleiboo 5/14/2009 5:57:00 AM
ok, so usually I'm an avid studio fix fluid fan- love the stuff (provided you are correctly colour matched- it oxidizes quite harshly, esp. on me) but I do like the good old dewy look and its quite hard to achieve with SFF as it's really matt- so introducing 'studio sculpt' I have only used it three times (twice in the day and once for night makeup) so it may not be completely accurate but i'll update if anything changes.... haven't broken out (am pron to sometimes, although don't with SFF either) and my skin looks uber perfect, nicely dewy too!!! I think I'm in love all over again- you can put as much or a less as you like as well- it can also layer so no need for a concealer (just as SFF) overall it's doing as I wanted and I look fab!!! Colours: in SFF I'm NC30 (it oxidizes something silly on me) and in SS I'm NC42 as it doesn't- NC42 seems to be just enough yellow too to match my golden glow. (for ref: mixed black and white origin- quite fair) x EDIT: after using it for two weeks I realised that it didn't suit my skin it broke me out and I don't love that- What a shame- thought it was HG status but I'm trying a Bobbi Brown 'Skin' at the mo which seems to be quite similar!! Mmmmmm x

Mascara -Unlisted Brand - Ready To Wear - Lash Extensions
bleiboo 5/5/2009 8:15:00 AM
Ladies and adventurous gentlemen.... this product is a god send!! I Looove this shit! it's amazing seriously it works!! you can even use it as your everyday- it doesn't take long!! you do need a good mascara to coat it though.... I've tried a few and none work as good as max factor false lash effect!!! (because its really wet and has good seperation) applying: apply a coat of mascara on one eye both back and front, try to get good seperation.... then apply your ready to wear (RTW) both back and front (tip: look over a mirror and the fibers don't end up an your face) then seal with another coat of mascara, brushing out any excess...........- for an extra umph add another coat of mascara and 'whala' .....perfect long lashes. when I'm on a night out I repeat this over whatever mascara I was wearing that day.... and it adds extra fullness an length!! girlie, guys whoever!!! this is a winner try it!! x

Bronzers -NARS - Casino
bleiboo 2/10/2009 6:53:00 AM
Great product- I have many, many bronzers as I can't seem to fine one that's dark enough to make a big difference (when going out, so you look full on sun tanned) without making you look like you've been tangoed (mac) or rolling around in mudd (benefit) ! Laguna was probably a good everyday bronze for me but Casino has more of the 'wow' edge i was looking for....... if you have a complexion like mine NC35 you can do both but Casino is defo the one for drama without looking like a drag queen. xx

This is ace!! defo HG high end mascara!!! and I've tried like billions, gives you everything you want!! I have medium length reletively curly lashes this gives them extra curl, volumous long lashes!!! I can't praise this mascara enough!! this is defo a staple- even for you ladies that don't like the dramatic look (I do on occation) you can just apply one coat and it still gives that fresh lift !!! seriously If you're looking for an all in one (which you hardly ever find) this is it!!! ! run to your nearest department store treat yourself and save yourself wasting money trying others!!! Go Get It!!! ps. don't forget to wipe the brush with a dry tissue every week as it will clump on the brush and not work as well!!! -x-

I was looking for a similar colour to mac's limited edition of ''all revealing'' and this was the closest, Isn't exsactly the same unfortunately (all revealing is amazing!!!) but its close- if anything it's slightly on the nuder side so can wash you out- but it's quite a cool every day colour.... for ref NC30- NC42 mixed scot-west indian.x

Conditioner -Aveda - Elixir daily leave-in conditioner [DISCONTINUED]
bleiboo 4/4/2008 9:10:00 AM
I would buy it again if they didn't discontinue it!!! I'm sooo annoyed!!! this is the only hair product after shampoo and conditioner that I can actually use in my hair!!! my hair is mixed but not typical mixed- it's more like a childs- really really really soft, fine with kind of ringlet curls, it is also pron to a bit of frizz!! so I need something and this was it!!! guess the search continues.......................

Blush -MAC - Sheertone Blush in Gingerly
bleiboo 4/4/2008 6:03:00 AM
really like this- kinda, bronzey pink, really natural looking but can be dramatic if you layer- I use it with a skunk brush (188) so that I can control the application to get that really natural finish! it's ace!! -x- for ref: NC35
