Blush -MAC - So Sweet, So Easy
jp412153 2/24/2010 11:52:00 AM
This is a great color pink, but hardly shows up on my cheeks...and I'm pretty fair, I should have gone with Florida. You know what this is though??? It is the SAME color as the new Glam Gaga lipstick! I know...because I tried one on my upper lip and one on the lower. A little different texture (lipstick is thicker), but the same color. Good to know, because I was just about to buy a back-up of the lipstick...and now, I really don't need to.

Powder -Garden Botanika - She's a Natural Mineral Foundation
jp412153 2/24/2010 11:36:00 AM
I absolutely LOVED this stuff at first. The BEST coverage of any mineral foundation I've ever tried...and none of the mess. But it breaks me out...and I normally don't have that issue with make-up. What a drag. So disappointing. I really do like the look and coverage. I've tried and retried, but my skin hates this stuff.

Loose Powders -Bare Escentuals - Mineral Veil
jp412153 8/29/2008 4:11:00 PM
I cannot live without this. I apply it after moisturizing BEFORE applying the foundation. It helps to minimize my pores and gives me an air-brushed effect that looks completely natural. I don't think I will ever go back to liquid foundations again. I'm totally hooked and have been for two years now.

Lips -Cle de Peau - Lip Contour Treatment
jp412153 2/14/2008 2:03:00 PM
I couldn't believe I spent nearly $50 on this...but then, when I bought another one, well, that says it all. This stuff WORKS! It has made my lips softer, fuller, more pigmented and just plain younger looking. I use to apply it all the time, like it was blistex, but now I only use in the morning and at night...since it's so expensive. Seems to have the same effect either way...so that is awesome! I definitely recommend this....however, I didn't buy it for extremely chapped lips...not sure how it works for that...but if you're looking for more contour and lip fullness, this stuff is for you.

Treatments (Eye) -Bliss Labs - Baggage Handler
jp412153 2/6/2008 4:57:00 PM
I think this stuff actually works...and I'm hooked. I can tell the days I don't apply. It not only makes me look more rested....but helps to ease that heavy eye feeling as well. It's worth the price and I will definitely repurchase.

Pressed Powders -MAC - Blot Powder - Medium
jp412153 7/19/2006 9:41:00 AM
This is definitley my HG powder. I have been using it for years...nearly a decade I think. It never looks chalky or powdery on me and so many other powders do. I've tried a few others here and there...but that only lasts a day or two...because this stuff IS THAT MUCH BETTER. I am pretty fair....and use Medium. It's perfect.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Pink Poodle Lipglass
jp412153 7/19/2006 9:38:00 AM
I am a pink lipgloss queen, but I gotta tell ya, this stuff, IMO, is just too bright. I much prefer Cultured to this. Won't repurchase.

Skincare - Face -Philosophy - Hope in a Jar Eye & Lip Cream
jp412153 7/6/2004 2:57:00 PM
I just started using this about a week ago...and to tell you the truth, I wasn't really expecting much, since I never used eye creams much in the past. So, even though I wasn't "looking" for results....THERE THEY WERE! I'm serious! I'm really quite surprised and amazed at the difference. My lines are much less defined and the skin beneath my eyes just seems flatter and brighter. I will DEFINITELY repurchase!

Lip Liners -DuWop - Reverse Lipliner
jp412153 6/25/2004 1:14:00 PM
This does exactly what it says it will. It's completely clear and invisable...no shine or waxiness. It keeps lipstick and glosses in place and helps to define your lip shape without a colored lip liner...or even with one! I really like this stuff. Thanks DuWop! BTW...works GREAT with the Venom glosses!!!

Liquid -Almay - Skin Stays Clean [DISCONTINUED]
jp412153 6/17/2004 1:45:00 PM
This is probably the best foundation I have ever tried. It has great coverage without being heavy, it keeps me from getting too oily, and it just looks great all day long. The only bad things I can say is 1) the bottle has a large opening and it's messy, and 2) I'm upset it took me so long to discover this stuff! UPDATE: After a few weeks of use, I think this stuff is starting to make me look old. I think it's a combination of it drying my skin out a little and it settling into lines. MI'm going to start mixing it with moisterizer and use less. Will update again. For now, I'm taking off one lippie.

Lotions/ Creams -Suave - Skin Firming Lotion
jp412153 6/15/2004 10:54:00 AM
I've been using this ever since I tried it in place of the more expensive "firming" lotions. I don't think any of them really do much in terms of firming...but this lotion is very inexpensive and works great! It soaks into my skin quickly and doesn't feel greasy. The smell is light and it's just an all-around great lotion.

Lip Treatments -Joey New York - Super Duper Lips
jp412153 6/15/2004 10:49:00 AM
I use to kind of think this stuff worked...but it doesn't. It looks like maybe it does while you have it on, because it's so thick and glossy...but once you wipe it off after the "7 minutes"...there isn't a difference in lip plumpness. What a rip...because this stuff aint cheap!

Lip Treatments -Qtica - Intense Lip Repair Balm
jp412153 6/15/2004 10:44:00 AM
The best thing about this balm is that it stays on and keeps moisterizing for a very long time. It's kind of thick and hard to squeeze out of the tube, but it's well worth it. It's also fantastic under your lipstick...makes it last so much longer. If you wear it alone, it also looks great...turns very glossy once it's warm on your lips. I love this stuff!

Lip Liners -Maybelline - Lip Express
jp412153 6/1/2004 1:18:00 PM
I love these!!!! My favorite color is Purple Flash...but it seems they have already discountinued it. :o( I bought a couple while I could...so, not sure what I'll do when those are gone. I wish other folks made "chubby" lip liners...I think the look is much more natural.

Lotions/ Creams -Neutrogena - NEW HANDS SPF15
jp412153 6/1/2004 1:10:00 PM
I found this lotion/cream to be very hard to work into hands and most of all, the smell is HORRIBLE! I can't believe they thought it would be okay to sell a hand cream that smells so bad.
