Concealers -MAC - Studio Finish Concealer

I have been searching for years to find a good under eye concealer and I have still not found one! I had heard good reviews on youtube about this concealer so I went out and bought it. The color is a good match (NW20) but it does not cover my dark circles very well. The Mac MUA told me to apply it with a concealer brush but I found it best to use my ring finger, it kind of warms to my skin that way. After a little while though it shows fine lines and bumps on my eyes, this kind of goes away if I set it with powder foundation. I often have to retouch up a couple of hours later. I do not think I will buying it again, I am still on a search for another concealer!!

Concealers -The Body Shop - Lightening Touch

I got this to try and conceal my dark circles but it is useless! I don't think it conceals anything! I don't want to throw it out so I am using it until its gone...I apply it before foundation but I need to use another concealer on top of foundation to cover the dark circles! I would not waste your money on this product! I would not recommend it and will not be buying it again!

I have a lot of these, they are wonderful, you only need a few drops and the whole room smells wonderful! I use these more than candles, you can smell these within minutes! Go get some!!

Toners -The Body Shop - Vitamin E Face Mist

I LOVE this stuff, I have been through many bottles! I use it mainly in the winter when my face is really dry. If my make up looks really dry on my face I spray a few times and it looks perfect! I also use it to cool down on hot days. I used to work a job where I was on my feet all day long and no air conditioning! I used to leave a bottle in the fridge and spray it on my face and body when I got too hot! Awesome stuff! I would buy again and recommend it!

Eye Shadow -The Body Shop - Shimmer Cubes
rated 5 of 5
h7georgia 11/22/2008 2:35:00 AM

I love shimmer cubes! Some people have said about them being sheer, I find they work really well when using a primer underneath (such as Urban Decay Primer Potion). But then again I do not like really dark high pigmented eyeshadow on me, I love it on other people but it just does not suit me (or I am useless at applying it!!) I would recommend these and would purchase again but I don't think I will need to as I have been using mine for years and they barely look touched!

Makeup Brushes -The Body Shop - Foundation brush
rated 3 of 5

I purchased this brush back in college as it was cheaper than the Mac one. It worked pretty well, not as good as Mac but all I could afford at the time (Body Shop was a lot cheaper in Europe compared with Mac) I now use mineral make up so have not used it in a long time! I don't like the style of Body Shop brushes, the bottom is so fat, it takes up a lot of room! I don't think I would recommend this brush.

I love these shimmer cubes, I think they will last me a lifetime there is so much in them! They are very pretty colors, a little on the expensive side though!

Bronzers -The Body Shop - Shimmer Waves in Bronze
rated 4 of 5
h7georgia 11/22/2008 2:23:00 AM

This is a lovely product, I use it as a bronzer but also as an eyeshadow picking up the different colors. Only wish the product was packaged a little better, I have had mine for years and travel a lot with it and its almost falling to pieces!! I have used it loads and there is hardly a dent in it, I don't think I will need to buy another one!!

Makeup Brushes -The Body Shop - Eyeshadow Brush
rated 2 of 5
h7georgia 11/22/2008 2:17:00 AM

I am not too keen on this brush and I have most of them (wanted them as a set before discovering Mac!!) It does not pick up enough color, I would try it as a concealer brush but I already have 4 of those!! Keep getting them in Bare Escentuals kits! I do find it works pretty well with a mac fluid line (thats kind of dried up) and with cream eyeshadows. One thing I do not like about the Body Shop brushes are the large bases, they take up a lot of room! I have washed it several times (I have had it for several years) I have never had a problem with the bristles going funny. I would not recommend or buy this brush again. I love Mac or Bare Ecentuals bruhes for eyeshadows.

I love this product, although a little too sticky for me, I have to wear lip balm underneath it! I prefer Macs lipjellies, they are less sticky. I don't think I will buy this again!

I wish I liked this, but it was clumpy, brush is too big, not veyr juicy, could not see the color. I usually wear it on top of normal mascara, even though I cannot see it, but I cannot see it when I wear it alone either lol!

I don't use this much as I cannot figure out where to put it!! I do like it but with the price etc I would not buy it again but then again at the rate I am using it I probably won't need to buy it again!
