Moisturizers -Aveeno - Active Naturals Smart Essentials Nighttime Moisture Infusion
kris1818 1/18/2013 2:41:00 PM
This stuff is the devil. Seriously, if the devil were to have a baby with a mass produced product this would be the off spring. I only used this once and woke up the next day with half of my face being "lizard skin" like some of the other reviewers have mentioned. It's so itchy and feels so gross, like an iguana on a very bad day. If you see this don't turn your back, walk away slowly and just for good measure if you happen to have some holy water with you.....throw it at all the jars of this stuff!

Lip Treatments -Palladio - Herbal Lip Balm - Berry
kris1818 3/13/2012 1:48:00 PM
This is HG for me. I'm not a lipstick girl (although every once and a while I feel the need to try) but love lipgloss. These are the perfect mix between the two. They feel like a really smooth lipbalm, have great color payoff, makes my lips soft, and are a little shiny too. Berry looks so pretty on that I've hoarded a few more so I won't be without.

Eye Shadow -NARS - Kalahari Duo
kris1818 3/11/2012 12:41:00 PM
I really like this one. It's soft and buttery. It's not as pigmented as I expected and I find that I never use the two colors together because they are too similar and don't really show up with each other. I do like to use each color as a wash and it makes my blue eyes stand out. I worried it'd be a bit too warm on me but it looks really nice. Will buy again.

Blush -NARS - Deep Throat
kris1818 3/11/2012 12:37:00 PM
This is an HG blush for me. There's not a whole lot I can say that hasn't already been said. It's a peachy pink colour with a little sheen that's natural and healthy looking. Will buy again and again.

Eye Shadow -Wet 'n' Wild - Color Icon #252B Nutty
kris1818 3/11/2012 12:35:00 PM
This is a great eyeshadow especially for the price. Its buttery, pigmented, and a nice color. Everyone should give it a shot. On my cool toned skin, it can seem a bit warm but that's just me. Still worth every penny and then some.

Eye Shadow -Maybelline - Expert Wear Single-Tastefully Taupe
kris1818 3/11/2012 12:24:00 PM
I love this taupe. It's such a pretty cool-neutral taupe. I always feel classy when I'm wearing this as a wash with black liner. It's pigmented, lasts all day on me without creasing, and has a nice texture. The color looks exactly the same as Wet N Wild Nutty in the pan but on my eyelid, Nutty pulls too warm on my pale cool toned skin. This is the perfect color and stays true to the pan. Out of all my eyeshadows including my high end, this is still my favorite and so cheap. Love it.

Eye Primer -BeneFit Cosmetics - Stay Don't Stray
kris1818 8/18/2011 11:52:00 PM
Crease city! I had a sample of this laying around so wanted to give it a try. I don't normally need primer because I have dry skin and shadows dont normally crease on me. I do use UDPP if I'm doing more then just a simple look and need it to last longer then an 9 hour day. This stuff made made my eyeshadow crease like crazy and by the time I got home from work all I had left was the crease showing. I would have gotten way better results if I hadn't used this primer at all. Just awful..

Cleansers -Yes To Carrots - Yes To Cucumbers Face Cleanser Towelettes
kris1818 7/19/2011 7:27:00 PM
I picked these up because I liked the idea that they were wipes that were mostly natural and organic. They take make up off okay. I have acne prone skin but I wouldn't say sensitive and these really burn and were actually pretty painful. It actually felt like when you burn yourself with a hot pan or hair iron. Tossing these.

Lip Gloss -Revlon - Colorburst Lipgloss 002 Crystal Lilac
kris1818 5/1/2011 1:15:00 AM
Out of all my lipglosses this is one of my favorites. It's a very pretty pink that reflects purple and blue in the right light which is subtle and unique. Although it's not super opaque. It's very flattering and I would imagine it would look good on almost everyone. The packaging is simple and classy and the texture of the gloss is just right that it's not sticky but lasts on the lips too. I've already bought a back up because I use this almost every day.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lipglass in Prrr
kris1818 4/14/2011 2:43:00 PM
After buying Nymphette I said I would never buy a lipglass again but just had to try one more before I completely wrote them off. So I picked up Prrr with some help from the SA and MUA of course. For me this is much more wearable and much less sticky. The color isn't super unique but it does seem to last a long time. I actually really like this one and would probably buy again if I ever ran out.

Lip Gloss -Inglot - AMC Lipgloss
kris1818 4/14/2011 2:13:00 PM
I picked up three of these on a recent trip to Vegas. They looked so amazing in the bottles I had to have them. In the bottles they have this most amazing holographic/prism/duochrome thing going on that's beeeautiful. On lips, not so much. I can't see any of that amazing color that's in the bottles or really any color on my lips at all. I couldn't even really tell the difference between the three shades once they were on, at least not enough to justify the $15 dollars a pop. They're not sticky at all, have a slight fruity smell, but I don't like the feeling on my lips......kinda greasy feeling. I'll probably end up throwing these away after I get over staring at the pretty bottle. Huge disappointment.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Nymphette lipglass
kris1818 3/7/2011 10:15:00 PM
This is nice but pretty average for me. This is my first MAC lipgloss and I find it's just way too sticky for me. I prefer some of my drug store glosses much more and paid much less so I probably won't buy this or any of the lipglasses again.

Lip Gloss -Revlon - Super Lustrous in Coral Reef
kris1818 3/1/2011 11:02:00 PM
The review below mine decribes this perfectly. I love this so much and even on my chapped lips it looks perfect. I thought it would be too orange on me but it ends up being the perfect pinky/corally color. I think I've just found my HG lipgloss.

Fragrances -Escada - Magnetism
kris1818 2/27/2011 12:23:00 PM
I love this perfume. It seems to change throughout the day on my skin. To me ( which I know is totally subjective when it comes to perfume) it starts off almost smelling fruity, gets a warm slighty spicy smell, and then ends up an interesting sweet vanilla smell. It's fantastic. I wear this almost everyday and even so can't help but smell my wrists and think how yummy I smell. I will rebuy this over and over.
