Lipstick -Revlon - ColorBurst Lip Butter in Tutti Frutti
cocodogg 3/17/2013 11:52:00 AM
How to describe this? It is supposed to be a coral color (which it is once you put it on), but in the tube it's a flat out orange. This color is very good to use during the spring and summer when you use other warm colors with it. And coral is always a nice switch from using those dark burgundy colors you would use during the colder months. Wha I like about this, is unlike lipsticks, it doesn't dry out my lips. However if I do have chapped lips, it will show that when you apply it. I think my favorite way to use this, is to add a bit of chapstick on, then add a couple of dabs on my lips, and rub it into my lips. It just adds a slight hue, which I like. The lips butters lack lasting power, but I have no problem applying it after a few hours (when it wears off).

Eye Shadow -Stila - Kitten
cocodogg 3/17/2013 11:43:00 AM
Way to describe it? A yellow based champagne color with frostyness to it. Hands down the best champagne color (or 'skin color' color). I think my favorite thing about this eyeshadow is that it easily brightens up my eyes, with just a couple sweeps of it. It's amazing to use if you have zero time in the morning, amd you need a quick eyeshadow to put on. It's also very versitile. It goes with almost any eyeshadow color, and blends with of all them nicely. And it goes with all of my Revlon lip butters. And one last thing I'm going to commend this about is it's texture. Unlike some of the other eyeshadows I have, it has such a nice, buttery smooth touch to it. I'm sure a majority of Stila's eyeshadows are like that. My biggest pet peeve about this, however, is how easily it breaks. I dropped it once on my carpeting, and it broke. I've dropped all my other shadows once, and they have never shattered that easily. So yeah, that's one thing to look out for when buying this eyeshadow. Oh. And make sure not to put too much on. You can overdo it.

Styling Products -Clairol - Totally Twisted Curl Boosting Mousse

I've been using Herbal Essences' mousses since mid-2009, after getting crap on how frizzy my hair was. I've tried a few other brands for my curly hair, but they don't do a good job-they leave my hair flat and not defined well. This one (and {Herbal Essences}their mousses in particular), defines my hair and brings it to life. My hair can get quite flat at the top, so this mousse helps it even out with the bottom layer. To add another plus, it also doesn't leave my hair unmangeable to work with-it keeps it in hold and limits some of my frizz down. (I still do, however have to use my Organix coconut milk serum, so it cuts frizz completely) My only complaint is the smell. It used to smell really good, until about a couple years ago. What gives? It still smells decent, but I used to be in love with the smell.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Club Eye Shadow

I sure wish for the 'would you buy this product again' there was a maybe. Because I honestly don't know if I would. I did put 'no'. When I got this eyeshadow, I got it on a whim (along with 'Electra'). When I tried it at first, I was disappointed. I didn't like how it was on me. When you own 'Club' though, you do find a way to make it work. And when you do, you'll appreciate it. It is a complicated color to describe, because of the lighting but it's a great color when you really work with it. My biggest complaint would be how it smears. Be careful not take too much at once.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Pink Freeze
cocodogg 9/24/2012 12:53:00 PM
This a great pink. Most pinks that I buy are normally really disgusting on me, and make me look like I have pink eye/sick. However, Pink Freeze is a different story. When I was trying to find a good pink eyeshadow, I wanted one in a really frosty, cool toned finish. So, be warned. This is really frosty, and if you don't like that..well this isn't for you. It is a really good product. The only complaint I have on this, is that I do have to pack it on a bit more. But that doesn't really bother me that much haha.
