great mascara. wonderful rose scent as well. I think it gives me lashes volume and length. Only thing is that it won't hold my curl since it isn't waterproof.

I like this a lot but I do have to layer it quite heavily for the color to show. And too many layers make my face looks too glittery. Therefore I also purchased the matte verson and layer those 2 together. love the effect.

Mascara -Shiseido - The Makeup Mascara Base [DISCONTINUED]

It is a good base, but I wonder if this causes my Shu's masacra to clump a bit.

very good quality mascara. It holds up my curl (after using their lash curler). But I think it clumps a little bit. I do use Shisedo's base before using this mascara.

I really do not likethis product. It just sits on top of the skin and doesn't absorb at all... not even after a couple of hrs.

I have been using Shu Uremura forever and wanted to see if this one is better. For me, it isn't. This one fits looser, and I like the stronger grip of the Shu. Those this still works very nicely.

Treatments (Eye) -MD Forte - skin rejuvenation eye cream

This doesn't work for me. I do not like the yellow tint either. I tried to use this under eye makeup, but it doesn't seem to absorb and only sits on top.

Unfortunately this doesn't work for me. I have been using this for about 3 weeks. The texture is gel-like and very light, but it simply doesn't do anything for me.

Very nice product. Very smooth and easy to apply. I went swimming with this, and I think it pretty much stayed put (though smudge a little bit but expected) Highly Recommend!

so hard to find this product ... it was sold out in Sephora forever, but I think it was because they didn't restock it for weeks ... the product .. it is very easy to apply, but it definitely smudged on my eyelids constantly. Won't recommend. (Though their waterproof pencil eyeliner is great!)

Cleansers -MD Forte - Facial Cleanser I
rated 4 of 5

very gentle. great cleanser. no scent whatsoever. I have dry skin but it is very creamy. i am not sure if it takes off my makeup well though, but i have this feeling mostly because it doesn't lather.

great brush. i dont need to use sponge that soaks up my foundation anymore. this brush isn't expensive at all if you think in terms of how much foundation you are saving and it lasts forever
