Blush -Rocket City - Blush
crzygrl2b 2/11/2003 11:32:00 PM
Very cute packaging and wonderful product! Love the slight shimmer and the beautiful natural colors! They last all day and look great on many skin tones. I will definitely be trying some more of these out! And they work just as great as Nars, have great colors just like Nars,,,but don't have the Nars pricetag! Gotta love that! =)

Eye Shadow -Elizabeth Arden - Eyeshadow
crzygrl2b 2/11/2003 4:11:00 PM
I recieved a GWP of two of these eye shadows and they are just beautiful! So I decided to try them out and love them! Very smooth and easy to apply. Can be layered for a more dramatic look. I haven't tried them wet for a liner since I'm unsure if these can be used this way or not. The colors lasted all day on and really looked fabulous on! I was impressed and will definitely be checking these out at the counter the next time I'm near one! I do hope that the regular sized shadows are better planted in their palettes however. Because the GWP ones seem to be a little loose and may need some gluing. We'll see =)

Blush -Becca - 'Frangipani' blush
crzygrl2b 2/11/2003 4:07:00 PM
Very creamy easy to apply consistancy! The color is very neutral and pretty for a just came in from the cold or did a good workout look! It's not overpowering and is smooth and even. I have a 50 watt Stila D face, and it looks perfect, however I don't think it would work very well on dark skin unless you layered it. It looks darker than it actually goes on looking. If that makes sense?! Very nice blush and I would definitely repurchase,,,,but I can't see myself going thru this real fast since you don't need alot for an application =)

Lotions/ Creams -Asquith & Somerset - Ultra Rich Shea Butter
crzygrl2b 2/11/2003 4:04:00 PM
This is a WONDERFUL Lotion! Thick but doesn't leave a nasty film on your hands. This has a neutral nice soft scent, no overpowering florals here! It really moisturizes and helps heal dry cracked hands. I put this on every night before bed and wake up with soft silky hands. I'm also a bit on the sensitive side when it comes to lotions, and I had no negative reaction from this one whatsoever! Highly recommend if you have dry winter hands! And it is really inexpensive considering you only use a tiny amount and it works wonders!

Eye Shadow -Anna Sui - Eye Shadow
crzygrl2b 2/11/2003 4:01:00 PM
SO many great colors to choose from in this line! I have a muted army green, it works beautifully on blue eyes! It brought out the gold flecks in my eyes as well. Very smooth and easy to apply. Goes on light but can be built up for a more dramatic look. Stayed on all day with no base! Very nice shadows in cute packaging! I would definitely buy these again!

Lip Gloss -Bobbi Brown - Lip Gloss in White
crzygrl2b 12/13/2001 5:01:00 PM
Never thought I would want or need or for that matter like, but I love it! Aliciaxuan sent me one in a swap as an extra so I figured I'd give it a try. It tones lipsticks down or is a great light gloss. It doesn't go on stark white, and it has good staying power and there's no icky scent or taste to it. This is a great staple to have around.

Polishes -Lancome - Nail Polish (Vernis Absolu)
crzygrl2b 12/5/2001 10:05:00 AM
This was an "ok" nailpolish,,,not the best staying power as it seemed to chip a little too easily. But if you are just looking for a great color for a short while they do have nice selection. A little pricey for the quality, I'll stick with OPI.

Lips -Sanrio/Hello Kitty - Lipgloss in tube
crzygrl2b 12/5/2001 10:03:00 AM
This was great if you're looking for a really strong stain,,,but it is messy and the glossy sheen has no lasting power. My girls love this stuff though, their lips are stained for a whole day, so I wouldn't recommend them using this the morning of pics! LOL!

Mascara -Bobbi Brown - Thickening Mascara in Henna
crzygrl2b 12/5/2001 9:57:00 AM
This is a great mascara anyway,,,but this color is sooo great on blue or green eyes!! The color kind of scared me when I opened it cuz it's not your average brown,,,but I tried it and I love it!! It really brings out my eye color and is just perfect when I need a natural soft look on my eyes. And it's all about the brush with this mascara!! Great thickening power! The wideness between the brush bristles defines and seperates your lashes so that it can coat every last little one. This is such a staple of mine! =)

Styling Products -Clinique - define curls
crzygrl2b 12/5/2001 9:54:00 AM
This made my hair super soft and left it with virtually no frizzies. It was so nice to work with because for once I didn't have that sticky residue left on my hands or my hair afterwards. It defined my curls nicely, what little I have it made it look like more. And it never weighed my hair down or made it greasy at all. Great product!

Skincare - Body -L'Occitane - Body Lotion
crzygrl2b 12/5/2001 9:52:00 AM
This was a pretty good lotion, moisturizing but not greasy and lasted fairly long. But it really wasn't anymore special then BBW and for the exhorbant price I expected more, so I would probably not buy this item again.

Lips -Trish McEvoy - Lip and Cheek Stain in Bronze
crzygrl2b 11/30/2001 8:40:00 PM
This is a fabulous stain! I thought it would end up being like Benetint(hated it) but it's great! It comes in a nailpolish type bottle with a built in brush that makes it so easy to use! And the color lasted all day! I used a little Mac Clear Lipglass over it and WOW was it georgous! It's not a stronge bronze though,,,it's more like Plummy color with bronze in it. I have'nt tried it on my cheeks cuz I don't usually wear really strong colors on my cheeks, so I'm no help there. But I may try it sometime just to know. =)

Eyeliner -Bobbi Brown - Eye Pencils
crzygrl2b 11/25/2001 8:55:00 AM
These are creamy and easy to use but they don't smudge or run down your face either. It did'nt tug on my skin at all!! These are a bit on the spendy side for a liner but they really are fabulous pencils and they offer some pretty colors.

Lipstick -Vincent Longo - Lip Stain
crzygrl2b 11/19/2001 7:29:00 PM
This is nice and the colors are great! It goes on nicely and is not too sheer, but just perfect! I gave it a 4 though cuz it would be nice if there were more colors to chose from and more staying power.
