Lipstick -MAC - Costa Chic
jmerritt0822 7/28/2011 2:00:00 AM
I have noticed that this lipstick is not as drying as some of the others mac has released. I have very light skin and I wear it without bronzer or a tan. It's a bold look, but with a simple eye, it looks great! It lasts about a 1/2 hour before needing to be reapplied and it does not do well when paired with gloss as it seperates.

Foundations -Stila - one step makeup [DISCONTINUED]

This product seemed to cake on my face, perhaps because of my skin type. I have dry patches around my nose and on my cheeks. This stuff seemed to make those spots even more pronounced. I tried using different amounts and different face primers underneath to no avail. :(

Shampoo -Organix - Tea Tree Mint Shampoo

This is the WORST shampoo and conditioner I have ever used. It made my hair dull and brittle. My hair was so dry that it was difficult to brush because my hair would break and tangle. I used it for two weeks, and threw it out. Never again. (I have very thin, oily hair. So, maybe it's just not for my hair type)

Mascara -Maybelline - The Falsies in Black Drama

I bought this mascara because of the hype associated with it. I was sorely disappointed. It clumped badly and flaked. It did seem to elongate my lashes, but the cost was huge clumps.

Polishes -Unlisted Brand - China Glaze Crackle - Cracked Concrete

I love the idea of this polish. However, I find it can be hard to work with at first until you get your technique down. Everyone seems to do it differently. I do a medium coat, just one layer. Too many layers and you have a goopy mess. Again, once you get your technique down, you will find it really is a neat, funky design that definatly helps refresh a week old mani.

Polishes -E.L.F. - Nail Polish

Great color selections and when I wear it with my seche base and my seche vite top coat, the polish lasts up to a week and a half! It does need to be shaken a lot to keep a usable consistancy and usually requires up to three coats, but the end result is just as beautiful as essie, opi, ect. And for $1, it is definatly worth the extra work for a clean finish. Will be buying whole set!
