Polishes -Sinful - Secret Admirer
brittanyhocake 10/18/2010 12:46:00 AM
Suuuch a good fun black polish! I saw a swatch on a nail blog and I had to have it. It's my first "Sinful Colors" polish. I am so floored by the quality of these dirt cheap polishes! The brush was kind of strange at frist because the bristles are shorter than usual, but I have NO complaints, it works really well, I'd go as to even saying I like it better than most brushes. Consistency is good, opacity is amazing, and I looove this color! It's not a black-black, more of a 'gun metal' grey as some have said. The glitter is very fine and not at all chunky. It's also VERY glossy pre-topcoat..I was really astonished at that. It could be opaque in one thick coat, but I did two. Drying time was pretty quick also. I'll definitely be buying MORE and MORE Sinful Colors in the very near future.

Polishes -Sally Hansen - Xtreme Wear - Celeb City

I'm so disappointed....that I haven't heard more raves about this color! It's such a pretty foil silver. Amazing. As always, love Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear line as far as brushes and packaging is concerned. Opaque in 2 coats for sure. If you love silver...what are you waiting for?!

I can't even tell you how many lip balms/chapsticks that I own and have used and this one has worked THE BEST! I actually like the packaging a lot because it's retractable. Best one yet, will buy again and again. (:

Mascara -Almay - One Coat Nourishing Mascara Triple Effect
brittanyhocake 4/6/2010 11:37:00 PM
I was turned onto this mascara by a friend because her lashes were just amazing. I love it and I don't think I'll be changing mascaras anytime soon! It doesn't clump at all in my experience. I love this one and see no reason to change! The brush is genius in my opinion! Oh, and it's cheap. haha.

I only ordered a sample of this, but I'll be purchasing a full-size soon! It's so pretty, and not TOO glittery. I applied it wet and loved the effect. My favorite silver/grey eyeshadow ever! (:

Cleansers -Cetaphil - Gentle Skin Cleanser
brittanyhocake 4/6/2010 11:21:00 PM
I own both the dry to normal, and the oily formulas because I need them at different times of the year. I love them! I was recommended this by my dermatologist and have used it for about a year now. I also got my mom into using it. I like it because it's just a simple facial cleanser that REALLY IS gentle. You can wash the area around your eyes without it burning. It's also inexpensive, and there's several different kinds for different skin types. It doesn't make me break out, it doesn't dry me out, and it leaves my skin feeling fresh! I won't be changing cleansers anytime soon!

Fragrances -Paris Hilton - Can Can
brittanyhocake 4/6/2010 11:16:00 PM
I wore this for about a year before switching to Viva La Juicy (because it was new) but I'm considering buying another bottle because I miss it! It smells so nice. I'm really sensitive to strong fragrances and this is good for me. I still have the rollerball and use it in emergencies (: Oh and the bottle is precious (: It's pricey, but most good fragrances are. But, they last so long that it's worth it to smell hot! :D

This is the first time I've ever purchased a second bottle of perfume! I love love love the smell and the packaging is oh-so-cute. Everyone compliments me on it! I'm sensitive to strong fragrances and this is very mild, but still smells SO lovely, and lasts all day. It's definitely my signature smell (:

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Deluxe Shadow Box
brittanyhocake 4/5/2010 11:44:00 PM
Gorgeous pigmented colors! As usual, all quality. Looove this palette (: Scratch is such a simple neutral color with a little pink. I love wearing it alone with mascara and maybe some eyeliner on those kind of days. (:

Eyeliner -Smashbox - Jet Set Waterproof Eye Liner in Black
brittanyhocake 4/5/2010 11:41:00 PM
Goes on smooth, stays on all day! I haven't tried many other cream eyeliners.. but I love this one. I don't try to put it in my waterlines...I just don't think it's a good idea to put a cream or liquid into your waterlines. But I love it! It's pricey but it lasts FOREVER.

Eyeliner -Urban Decay - heavy metal glitter liner (in general)
brittanyhocake 4/4/2010 11:53:00 PM
I wish I could afford them all! I have Distortion and it reflects a green color, but is iridescent. They are a little on the pricey side so I only own one. These are super pretty though!

Received this in a palette - I was scared to wear this color because it's so pigmented, but I went for it today (with purple) and I love it!
