Lip Treatments -E.L.F. - Therapeutic Conditioning Balm-Vanilla Creme
rated 5 of 5

I LOVE THIS! It makes my lips incredibly soft, doesn't taste artificial and gross, and adds a nice tint/shimmer. If you order online, you can enter the coupon code "BUZZ110" and get 10% off the entire order. I've used it a couple of times already and it doesn't expire. So for 90 cents, it's definitely worth a try.

Lip Gloss -E.L.F. - Hypershine Gloss in Flame
rated 5 of 5
katievartan 6/5/2005 9:53:00 PM

This is one of the few low end lipglosses that I actually love. Usually when I buy cheap makeup, I justify its mediocre quality with the fact that it didn't cost me much. But not only was this gloss only $1, it has impressive quality- very glossy and smooth. Definitely worth the value.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Gorgeous Gold (Veluxe Pearl)
rated 5 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:42:00 PM

I just bought this yesterday because it's unlike any other MAC shade. It's a sheer gold with a vivid green iridescence. And if you like it alone, you should see the wonders it has when you blend it with greens and blues. A must-have!

When I bought this I was in my bright colors phase and even though this is a gorgeous, true orange... I rarely find myself reaching for it.

Eye Shadow -NYX - Purple
rated 4 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:36:00 PM

I love this purple more than the MAC purples that I own. It's comparable to MAC's Parfait Amour, except this one is more pigmented, which I like.

Eye Shadow -NYX - Lime Green
rated 5 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:35:00 PM

Don't be fooled by the name of this product... This shade is not bright lime green, but it's nonetheless gorgeous. It's an olive gold iridescent green that's extremely versatile. Plus it's cheap.

Mascara -MAC - Fibre Rich Lash Mascara
rated 4 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:34:00 PM

I've rarely ever been dazzled by mascara (my lashes are naturally full) and this one didn't really dazzle me either. It's by no means bad--but it wasn't miraculous either.

Eyeliner -MAC - Powerpoint Eyeliner - Forever Green
rated 4 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:33:00 PM

I almost never wear pencil liners because my lids are so oily. I gave this one a try because the color is just so pretty and I heard good things about powerpoint. When I wear it alone, my top lid still creases. However, if I wear eyeshadow with the eyeliner, the eyeliner acts like a base and the overall look is great.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lipglass in Oyster Girl
rated 3 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:30:00 PM

I got this for free and it's definitely too light for me. However, if I wear it over darker lipstick, it looks good.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lipglass- Love Child
rated 5 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:29:00 PM

This is a true mauve with a bit of gold shimmer. It's a perfect match for my lip color so it just makes my lips look natural but better.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Trax
rated 5 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:27:00 PM

This is definitely one of my favorite eyeshadows. It has just the right amount of pigment, sparkle and consistency. It actually comes out a bit sheer, but you can always layer for a smokey look. Perfect for all skin tones!

Eye Shadow -MAC - Vex
rated 5 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:26:00 PM

Great versatile color... everyone should get this. It looks boring and gray in the pan but goes with every color when you actually put it on.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Nylon
rated 3 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:23:00 PM

I consider this color to be important to have but not necessarily something you'd often wear. It's off-white, shimmery, and has a thick consistency which makes it difficult to blend. However, it goes with any dark color and is great for a wintery frosty look.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Crystal Eyeshadow
rated 5 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:20:00 PM

Very underrated color... Can be used alone for a subtle lavendar sheen or with darker colors to add a gorgeous iridescence.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Creme de Violet eye shadow
rated 3 of 5
katievartan 9/26/2004 12:19:00 PM

Very gorgeous color in the pan, I love the gold sparkles. I'm just giving it a lower rating because compared to the other MAC e/s's I have, this one is a little more sheer. Since I'm tanned, I need intensely pigmented colors that show up better. If you are lighter-skinned, this will be gorgeous on you.
