Lip Gloss -FLOWER Beauty - Lovely Lotus LG3
glamourcat 2/6/2013 4:59:00 AM
I love this lip gloss. It's not sticky at all and lasts a long time. The color is a very pretty medium pink. If you like a very natural looking color on your lips, this is the shade for you. It's Your Lips But Better! By the way, LG3, which is the code on the bottom of the gloss, is actually called LOVELY LOTUS. Once you remove the protective sticker you won't know what shade you have, so I carefully cut out the name of the shade and stuck it on the bottom of the gloss. It's rather crazy to have a code on the gloss instead of the actual name. Gorgeous color, long lasting shine and a great price. What's not to love?

Cleansers -Noxzema - Clean Moisture Makeup Removal Cloths
glamourcat 3/13/2011 1:51:00 AM
I love these wipes! I use a seperate eye makeup remover but I go over my eyes with this cloth to remover any residual product and I experience no eye irritation at all. And I have very sensitive eyes. The wipe itself is a nice size sheet and pretty sturdy. I've used other cloths that were smaller and whisper thin. It does a great job of removing all my makeup. My skin feels totally clean and refreshed. I also like the fact that the cover stays closed. I had to tape the cover closed on other cloths that I've used.

Fragrances -Bobbi Brown - Almost Bare
glamourcat 6/11/2008 12:23:00 PM
I love both the Beach and Bath scents, so I was excited when I heard that Bobbi was releasing a new perfume and I couldn't wait to try it. I received a sample a few weeks ago and I was so disappointed with it. I was expecting a nice, light, clean fragrance but what I got was a heavy, cloying scent. I would say that it's a very sharp, musky smell. When I first tried it on, and waited for the dry down, I went from hating it to not really liking it. Another thing, I couldn't smell it on me after about 15 minutes. It has absolutely no staying power. Sorry, Bobbi, I love your makeup and other perfumes but you missed the boat on this one.

Blush -Bobbi Brown - Bahama Brown Shimmer Blush
glamourcat 5/8/2008 10:01:00 AM
If I remember correctly, this blush was part of one of Bobbi's palette's from a few years ago. I remember I loved the Bahama Blush but I wasn't too crazy about the eye shadows or the lip glosses that went with the palette and I was hoping that she would release just the blush one day. I was so excited to see she's finally offering this blush! The color looks a little scary for a blush, to me it looks more of an eye shadow color, but the color is beautiful when you apply it. It gives a nice, healthy glow to my cheeks and although there is shimmer in the product, it's definitely not overdone. I also love the new packaging. I don't plan on buying any of the empty palette's but for those who do, it'll be great being able to mix and match all the different eye shadows and blushes. I like the new package simply because I hated screwing the top's off of the older makeup.

Mascara -Boots - Ultimate curl
glamourcat 1/28/2008 2:20:00 PM
Love this mascara! It goes on very nicely; no flakes, clumps or smudging. It also removes very easily without a lot of rubbing. It actually DID curl my lashes. I would definitely purchase this again. The price is great as well.

Fragrances -Tova - Love Everlasting
glamourcat 10/10/2006 5:29:00 AM
I was really looking forward to trying this new perfume. I'm a huge fan of all of Tova's fragrances (except Nirvana) and the way Tova described the scent made me really think it was going to be spectacular. Let me say that the bottle is simply beautiful! She really did an outstanding job of designing it but that's the only compliment I can give to Love Everlasting. It smells nothing like her other fragrances, as a matter of fact after a while it started giving me a headache. I tried it on two different days, just in case my sense of smell was out of whack for some reason or another. No such luck - it smelled just as bad on the second day. IMO, it's a very heavy, cloying floral fragrance. Way too overpowering for me. I remember reading tons of bad reviews about this on the QVC bb, very few people actually liked it. I ended up returning it. I would recommend that you save your money and pass this one up.

Fragrances -Philosophy - The Fragrance
glamourcat 7/25/2006 8:40:00 PM
I was excited when I heard Philosophy was coming out with a new fragrance since I like Baby Grace and Falling in Love. I ordered a few products from Philosophy's site and I had a choice for a free sample so I picked the new fragrance. I'm so glad that I didn't waste my money purchasing it. The first tip-off should be that's it's marketed as a uni-sex fragrance. To me it would be better suited for a man. If anyone is familiar with Philosophy's scent for men, AMEN, it smells similar to that, except I like AMEN better. I thought maybe it would appeal to me more if I actually applied it. Big mistake. I couldn't wash it off fast enough. It smelled like stale lemons on me. Would never purchase or recommend this fragrance to anyone.

Palettes -Laura Geller - Chocolate Fix 4 Piece Color Collection
glamourcat 7/16/2006 3:44:00 PM
I bought this kit over and year ago and it's my favorite in her collection. The eye shadow is a beautiful brown with just a touch of gold flecks. The cream blush is very easy to apply and I think the color would flatter almost any skin tone. The lip color is also very flattering. BTW, it seems like the Chocolate Mousse eye shadow has a huge following. It's been available as a seperate purchase on QVC, for those who don't want to buy the whole kit.

Pressed Powders -Laura Geller - Matte Maker Invisible Oil Blotting Powder w/Brush
glamourcat 7/16/2006 3:40:00 PM
I love this product! I have super oily skin, especially in the summer. I've tried all brands of blotting papers with little to no luck so I decided to give Laura's Matte Maker a try. Even though this comes with a fan brush, I use a baby 'buki brush. I found that the fan brush didn't pick up enough product (at least for me). I only have to apply this once in the morning and I'm good for the day. It goes on smoothly and it leaves no white residue behind. I highly recommend this product.

Fragrances -Bath and Body Works - Tutti Dolci Lemon Meringue edt
glamourcat 11/22/2005 7:55:00 AM
I love this scent! I smell so clean and fresh when I wear it. Normally I don't like the smell of lemons but this has a very delicate lemon-y scent. Really very nice and it's very long lasting.

Lip Treatments -Garden Botanika - Lip Scrub
glamourcat 6/18/2004 12:15:00 PM
This product is wonderful, my lips feel super smooth after I use it. It really works to remove flaky patches from my lips. The only thing I hate is the price, $14 for such a small tube is a little high but even with that I would definitely purchase again.

Fragrances -Philosophy - Falling in Love
glamourcat 3/21/2004 12:18:00 PM
This is my second favorite Philosophy scent. Baby Grace is number one! FIL smells exactly like blackberries and it also smells like cotton candy. If you don't like sweet, fruity scents this isn't for you. It also has pretty good staying power.

Fragrances -Philosophy - Pure Grace
glamourcat 3/21/2004 12:13:00 PM
I can't say that I wasn't warned about this product. I've read numerous negative reviews about this scent but since I like the other Philosophy scents, curiousity got the better of me so I decided to try it. The smell is nothing special, it smells like cheap soap. And the scent lasted all of 5 minutes on me. A total waste of money for me.

Fragrances -Philosophy - Baby Grace
glamourcat 3/21/2004 12:05:00 PM
Out of all the fragrances from Philosophy this is by far my favorite. It doesn't smell like Amazing Grace and it doesn't smell like baby powder (at least not to me), I dislike the smell of baby powder! It's a very fresh clean scent, not at all overpowering.
