I heard about these etailer brusher through EnKore's video on youtube. While I was a little hesitant to buy any soley on one person's recommendation, I did end up buying some because for the price I didn't think I had anything to lose. I bought the pink duo stippling brush, the badger concealer brush and some pink eye brushes. For one the prices are fabulous! While I wouldn't say these are THE best brushes I've ever used they are darn close. The 187 dupe isn't exactly the same and while I can't use it for foundation because it's not as firm, it's great for blush. The eye brushes are wonderful imo. They blend well and are really really soft which I love. I would recommend these brushes simply because they are a great price and have a wide variety of choices to pick from. They make for great everyday brushes or as a supplement to brushes you already have. They would also make a great travel set (since it wouldn't cost as much to replace in case they got lost)

Blush -MAC - Cantaloupe
indiagirl73 10/12/2007 6:08:00 PM
This is a pro color that is simply gorgeous. It's a satin I believe so no excessive shimmer or glitter... just beautiful color. It's not as bright as a cantaloupe irl but it's got just the right amount of an orange and melon combination. I paired it with CB96 lipstick and I know I'll be doing this combo again :)

Masks -Arbonne - Thermal Infusion Enzyme Mask
indiagirl73 10/11/2007 12:39:00 AM
After trying this mask out at an Arbonne party I was dying to get some. I had a hard time spending the $30+ but was lucky enough to swap for it. After using this product, my skin is baby smooth and my pores are clean. I don't know what more you could want from a product like this. You only need a little product and it's recommended to only use this 2-3 times a week so it will last quite a while

Eye Shadow -MAC - Glitter Brilliant - Reflects Antique Gold
indiagirl73 10/9/2007 11:00:00 AM
This has become my favorite glitter. It seems to go with everything and just adds a pop to whatever I pair it with. Used with MAC's water based mixing medium.. this pigment stays put. I actually fell asleep and woke up to find my eyes still looked great. It works great on top of liners as well to add a little glitz.

Powders -MAC - MAC Sheer Mystery Powder
indiagirl73 12/4/2006 2:36:00 PM
I love this product. I am C40-NC42 and I bought the Dark Myster Powder and it is sensational. It looks wonderful as a finishing powder over foundation or alone with a bit of concealer underneath. I find that with this I don't even have to use MAC Blot. I am normally very oily but this powder keeps me relatively matte. There is a bit of slight shimmer when you look at the pan but on the face, I don't see any. It comes in LE Couture packaging which is a great way to travel with it and it also comes with a refill. So while the $45 seems hefty at first it really isn't considering you get 2 powders in the box. I would highly recommend this product.

Lipstick -MAC - Viva Glam V
indiagirl73 2/8/2006 9:30:00 AM
I found this lippie at the CCO and am so happy I did. I usually get my lippies through B2M so I wouldn't have gotten this one otherwise. It is the perfect neutral pink for my pigmented lips. I pair it with MAC Cream O Spice liner and it looks great. It doesn't wash me out and depending on what color gloss I put over it I can get many different looks from it. This may be a lippie I actually repurchase when it's done!

Powder -MAC - Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation
indiagirl73 2/7/2006 12:33:00 AM
I Love Studio Fix. I know I may be in the minority but I have used Studio Fix for at least 2 years and it does not cause me to break out. I am super oily and still no negative skin reaction. I do use it with a separate brush...and clean it frequently. I love the fact that I can find a perfect color match with this and if used lightly.. it does not make me look cakey at all. Actually used along with MAC Fix+ it gives a very natural look.

Skincare - Face -MAC - Fix+
indiagirl73 2/7/2006 12:30:00 AM
I bought Fix+ based on suggestions on the boards. I am so glad I did. I spritz my face after moisturizer and then buff Studio Fix on top of it and gives my a nice balance of coverage with a natural look. It seems to help the Studio Fix set also. I can't wait to try it other ways!

Scrubs -St. Ives - St. Ives Gentle Apricot Scrub
indiagirl73 2/5/2006 3:47:00 PM
I use this product almost everday and love the smooth my skin feels afterwards. It really gets rid of flakey skin and cleans out pores. I have not had a problem with it being too harsh on my skin.. I do have combo skin and it does not effect it negatively. I think it is a great product and I would definately purchase again.

Lip Gloss -Milani - Crystal Gloss in Serendipity
indiagirl73 1/16/2006 6:08:00 PM
This is a dead ringer for the more expensive MAC Oh Baby l/g. The color and texture are great and I love the scent. The packaging is adorable (a little mini bullet like MAC l/s) This color is perfect alone for a little color or on top of other lip colors to change the intensity of them. I will definately buy again once I run out!

Lip Gloss -Revlon - Super Lustrous - Wrap Yourself in Rubies
indiagirl73 11/9/2005 2:40:00 PM
This is the perfect red l/g for me (I am NC44 GGG). It is a warm red with sparkle and looks great on. It is sheer but has great pigment. I may have found my HG red!!!! It has great staying power too.. stayed on even after I ate a pasta dinner! I will have to stock up as this is LE.

Eye Primer -Urban Decay - Eyeshadow Primer Potion - Original (UDPP)
indiagirl73 9/18/2005 8:17:00 PM
Bought and tried this for the first time due largely to the great reviews it got on MUA. It is great! My e/s stood up to 2 soccer games in direct sunlight. It's been 10 hours since I put my makeup on and the only thing left is on my eyes! WOW.. Amazing! So glad I got this BOGOF at Ulta! Definately will get again!

Lip Gloss -Prestige - Vinylwear - Gilded Rose
indiagirl73 8/19/2005 3:13:00 PM
Gilded Rose is a beautiful color that can be used alone for a nice sheer color or layered on your fave lipstick to add some shine and sparkle. Great staying power and the color is great. Plus you can't beat the price $3.50! Would definately buy again.

Lipstick -Bobbi Brown - Lip color - Nude
indiagirl73 8/15/2005 6:14:00 PM
The color just didn't work for me.. looked pink but showed orangey on my lips. I did like the creaminess of the lipstick though. Just not my color. :(
