Polishes -OPI - Strawberry Margarita

Very lively, passionate pink without being Barbie doll like Colour applies very nice and rich and evenly. Vibrant colour in two coats. I cannot fault this polish. A punchy, summery colour that is an absolute breeze to apply!

Polishes -Color Club - Pardon My French
jessienz 7/26/2011 3:59:00 AM
Pardon My French is a very pale pink. I chose Pardon My French over Essie Fiji, Essie Ballet Slippers and China Glaze Something Sweet as I heard the others were very shear and difficult to apply. Unfortunately Pardon My French is no different. It took me 3 very heavy coats to get a half decent finish and even then it still looks streaky. This is so frustrating as it is such a pretty colour. Oh well perhaps I'll try one of the others. In the mean time I will put a 4th coat on once it has a chance to set properly and post a follow up review and pics. UPDATE: I have tried this 2 more times. Still application is absolutely horrible and colour chipped in 1 day! I'm not even going to post pics. Yuck!

Concealers -MAC - Studio Finish Concealer
jessienz 3/26/2009 12:17:00 AM
Just got this today and I have to say it's totally different from any concealer I've ever used before Doesn't feel oily and heavy, but instead is soft when you put it on, like the texture of your skin and not at all cakey. But some how it still manages to cover fabulously! It blends in really well and doesn't feel like it's sitting on top of your face like most concealers I have acne prone skin so I'll have to try it for a longer period of time to see if it breaks me out

Nice colour. A deep browny red with a sharp fleck of red in the light I use this with Ruby Pumps layered over and the combination is my favourite look yet! Can't stop looking at my nails!

Cleansers -Neutrogena - Oil-Free Acne Wash
jessienz 2/17/2009 4:35:00 AM
I've been using this product thinking it would help my acne but it made it WORSE! The cleanser stripped my skin of oil....then my skin produced more oil and I'd keep breaking out horribly! I have since stopped using and my skin has cleared Not recommended, it is ance wash in the respect that it GIVES you acne! This foaming cleanser is way too harsh

Eye Shadow -Stila - Moonlight Eyeshadow

Gorgeous! This is in my opinion thee must have pearl white to own When used the right way it makes your eyes pop! Lovely vivid icey colour, not at all yellow like in the photo Just letting you know though you'll need a good eyeshadow brush and a bit of practise and once you've mastered it nothing else will compare to this product!

Eye Shadow -Stila - EyeShadow Duo in Moonlight and Pewter
jessienz 2/17/2009 4:22:00 AM
Great product. Two must have colours. I heard great things about moonlight and it really is the most gorgeous frosted colour, perfect when added to the corner of the eye to make your eyes pop! Used with other colours pewter can create a great smokey eye too. A little goes a long way to which is awesome!

Liquid -MAC - Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15
jessienz 2/16/2009 12:20:00 AM
I heard great things about this product and was sooooo excited to try it. After using it for a few months I am going to have to admit it's not that great. It gives an un natural, orangey and cakey look to my face. I purchased the NW15 as my skin is too fair but it still isn't quite light enough. Also it doesn't give a smooth coverage and I can see where the foundation stops and starts on my skin. Also cause breakouts. I guess I'll have to try again to find something that gives a flawless, no make up look!
