Yucko product. Feels really cheap--not smooth and emmolient like most eye creams. It didn't do anything for me and it is overpriced. Do not buy. There are wayyy better eyecreams than this.

Treatments -Mario Badescu - Drying Cream

Weird product. Smells bad, feels gross on (kinda greasy which is weird because its basically a sulfur cream). Didn't do anything for my zits. Pretty much a worthless product. The drying lotion is much better.

This stuff is harsh but who cares--it works! At least for me it does. It gets rid of most zits overnight. I am on my 2nd bottle and I will continue to use this as a spot treatment!

Eye Shadow -MAC - Shadestick - Sharkskin

I really like this portable eyeshadow. It is very convenient--i just stick this in my purse and go. It applies very smoothly without tugging at all, and wears well. The shade Sharkskin is a really good dark grey color that would look great on anybody. I would purchase this again if I used up all of mine.

Liquid -Revlon - ColorStay Stay Natural Makeup
rated 4 of 5

This is surprisingly good stuff for a ds brand.... It gives great coverage and really does stay on all day.... controls mild oil breakthrough as well.... only thing is that it can be a little sticky upon application but it dries to a matte finish.... no breakouts, either... overall great stuff, makes the skin look almost flawless.... would purchase again, but i just heard that it is being discontinued.... too bad!

Treatments (Eye) -Almay - Kinetin Rejuvenating Eye Treatment

Decent drugstore eye cream. I like how it absorbs well into my eye skin area. It also seems to make me look more refreshed. I would probably repurchase this again.

Treatments (Eye) -Dove - Fresh Radiance Anti-aging eye cream
rated 2 of 5

Ew..this eye cream is weird. It leaves a weird iridescent sheen on my eye area. Some people might like that, but I just find it weird. Not only that, but after a while, the formula begins to seperate so the eye cream comes out watery. It didn't do anything special for me either so i will not repurchase.

Pressed Powders -Christian Dior - Diorskin Pressed Powder
rated 1 of 5

This powder sucked on me! It didn't apply smoothly and made my oily skin look worse! I think it was made for dry skin types maybe. Too expensive for such a bad product, which is a shame because I really like the small compact...

Pressed Powders -Shu Uemura - pressed powder compact
rated 2 of 5

I really like the packaging on this, but that's about it. The powder does not sit well on my oily skin. It not only migrates, but cakes badly when i reapply. This might work for dry skin types, but it was a total waste of money for me.

Powder -Shu Uemura - VELVET PERFECT adjusting powdery foundation
rated 5 of 5

WOW... this stuff is nice! I think this will replace my HG Chanel white reflecting powder foundation! IT goes on flawlessly, lasts long, and covers my pores really well. It goes on as smooth as the Chanel but is not as thick so therefore it looks really natural and doesn't cake! Great product and I have found another HG!

Crème -Shu Uemura - Nobara [DISCONTINUED]
rated 4 of 5

This is a good product. Not great but good. It is a cream but dries to a matte finish on the skin. I have oily skin so i use this product in the winter season. Makes my skin look camera ready!

I didn't like this product too much. It was hard to get it to look natural on me. Very disappointing.

Brows -Shu Uemura - Brow Pencil
rated 5 of 5

I have this in stone grey, and it blends well with my dark hair. This is my HG brow pencil. It is not too waxy, not too soft, and not too powdery or pigmented. It allows you to draw in natural looking brows.

Eyeliner -Shu Uemura - Eye light pencil White
rated 5 of 5
chakakhan 12/4/2005 10:13:00 PM

HG product! This is a great double-ended white eye pencil. One side is pearly, one is matte. I use the pearl side on the corners of my eyes, and it makes me look awake and refreshed! The matte side is good for the brow area, which helps give dimension. The formula is so smooth... Another winner by SHU

Mascara -Revlon - Colorstay lash tint [DISCONTINUED]
rated 4 of 5
chakakhan 12/4/2005 10:05:00 PM

I know a lot of people don't like this product, but I really like it. It is the only mascara I can apply to my bottom lashes and not end up looking like a raccoon. It stays put! This stuff does tend to make lashes stick, I discovered that this product can be removed easily with a cleansing oil. I use DHC's...
