Mascara -Make Up For Ever - Lash Fibers
lawla91 7/8/2012 4:43:00 PM
WOW, best thing that's ever happened to my lashes. This is my favourite product on earth. I use this most days when I want extreme length, and this delivers. I apply it, wait a few minutes for it to dry and then apply maybelline colossal, and I have pretty long lashes, sometimes I curl as the lest step and it just opens up my eyes and makes me look THAT much prettier. I love eyelashes I think they're what makes a face more feminine. Defiantly give it ago, I bought mine two months ago and I'm totally inlove, it changed my make-up. I noticed what a big difference this makes when I apply mascara without this stuff, it's not the same not even close, short stubby lashes with no volume, simply put: Lacking. I would not mind using this daily, it just makes me feel better, get some now :)

Toners -The Body Shop - Seaweed Clarifying Toner
lawla91 7/8/2012 4:36:00 PM
I didn't like this, your face doesn't feel squeaky clean after you've used it like alot of toners do, it just sits there on your face god I don't know thee's something about the formula that I don't like. It's just too mild and doesn't feel like it's doing anything at all, no results at all. Also I went and left this in my bathroom in summer in the heat for 5 days, came back and it's already changed color, it went from being clear to this cloudy whit-ish color, so word of advice don't leave it in the heat it WILL turn it.

Scrubs -Soap and Glory - The Greatest Scrub Of All
lawla91 7/7/2012 7:45:00 PM
Love this for a more gentle scrub, it has two beads size, really tiny and some medium size (those are less in quantity than the tiny ones), this scrub just reveals a newer layer of skin and has a minty type of smell, I really like it (it's not the regular soap and glory scent, the one in the righteous butter and hand food) I also have the 'no pore' mask and they both have the same exact minty scent. Anyway, I really like this product, it's much more gentle than the st. Ives which just didn't work for my skin because it was harsh. I use this 4 times a week like recommended on the back, it's recommended you use it 2-4 times if you have oily skin and 1-2 times for drier skin. Overall it's just a good scrub, nothing too fantastic it does it's job, has a lovely scent and lovely packaging, what else can you ask for in a scrub?

Mascara -Rimmel - Glameyes Day2Night mascara
lawla91 7/7/2012 2:30:00 PM
Not the best mascara out there, it's basically one wand, when you open the night cap it's just a regular mascara, when you open the day one it's the same wand but with a smaller opening so that it eliminates alot of the product, so it has less formula on the brush (if that makes sense) Simply put: The night one holds way waay too much product it clumps like crazy I can only imagine using this when it's dried down a bit, because there's heavy product all over the wand, I can imagine it even dripping from how much product there is. Day mascara has barely any product, so it doesn't do much, what length are they talking about I have no idea. I only bought this because pixi2woo raved about this and said it was her favourite mascara, didn't work for me at all. Boo.

Treatments (Eye) -Olay - Total Effects Eye Transforming Cream
lawla91 7/7/2012 1:44:00 PM
Love! It's just the right texture, I use it under my eyes and around the outer corners (not on the lid though, I've been told my a beauty expert that only creams with minimal ingredients that are supposed to hydrate can be applied on the lid), I apply this at night, wake-up with my eyes looking fresh and young (I'm 20 btw, no wrinkles yet) it's really hydrating, the only thing I dislike about it is the tiny gold glitter, I just can't stand them and I refuse to wear this during day time IF I'm going out, I much prefer macs fast response eye cream ( de-puffs and is perfect as a base for your concealer to go on smoothly without tugging). Overall this cream is a good one and I do think it helps to smooth skin out thus helping with wrinkles.

Eyeliner -BeneFit Cosmetics - Eye Bright
lawla91 7/7/2012 1:24:00 PM
Pink-ish pencil, I really don't know how are we supposed to use this product, I've been told to use it on the eyes but I find it too drying and hard to rub evenly. However I think I found a DUPE for this, soap and glorys 'arch de Triumph', the highlight side is very similar to this pencil, except a little more powdery (but easier to smooth over, I find it less hard) and a little less pink. But it's very similar. Whenever I use eyebright I use it in my inner corners, it brightens well but then again you can use any matt pink eye shadow, and I've also tried using it on my dark circles, but like I said before I couldn't smooth it over nicely it was harsh on my eyes and looked just a bit cakey. I'd really love to know how to use it properly maybe there's a way I can get better use out of it but as of now, I'm not it's biggest fan.

Liquid -Make Up For Ever - Face & Body Foundation
lawla91 7/7/2012 1:11:00 PM
My favourite everyday foundation, when you first apply it it's very liquid-y, just rub it all over your face and it'll dry in a powder finish. I actually really think it's just powder and some water, but in a very good way cause when you apply it after the water evporates the powder grips well to your skin and dries so naturally, it's defiantly not for heavy duty coverage but it'll make any skin look like just good skin. I would suggest you get some samples of a couple of color matches you think matches you best, the SA matched me to a very light color that just didn't look good, but thankfully I asked for a couple of samples of the next darker shade before I left the store just in case. After seeing how horrible the match I bought I tried the sample and it was a perfect match! So be really careful, however it's a light coverage foundation so you do have a little more freedom when it comes to shades, it won't make the biggest difference. I would say this is just an excellent excellent everyday foundation, I have this and the HD and they are all foundation I need in my life, I wear the HD when going out when I want a flawless face, and the face and body every morning for daytime. They're just amazing.

Lips -NYX - Soft Matte Lip Cream in Monte Carlo
lawla91 10/3/2011 1:12:00 PM
Yes I really love this product, however I love it for all the wrong reasons because I use it as a blush and it gives the most beautiful natural flush! If you've ever had benefits benetint, it gives almost the same result, reaaaaaally pretty, I also tried using milan as a blush it was also really pretty but monte carlo turned prettier. On the lips it gives a nice matt red color, it feels very soft on the lips I love the way they feel, it wore down pretty quick for me but I was eating so that's probably why.you must be careful applying it because it can look abit uneven and messy, after applying you start feeling it dry out and stick to your lips, I wouldn't say it's sheer it's very pigmented but you can see your lips through it, kinda like a lip stain, your natural lips texture shows through. I love it!

Blush -BeneFit Cosmetics - Benetint
lawla91 4/10/2011 6:38:00 PM
This was pointless to me, the bottle is just sitting there on my shelve, ys it's a nice stain but it is SO not worth that much money, for what? A little redness? I can drink vimto and get that same red stained lips look. There are many stains that work just the same, get a cheaper one. However I do admit the smell is so nice and rosey. Bottom line: I regret buying this, I couldn've bought a high-end foundation instead.

Brows -Maybelline - Define-A-Brow
lawla91 4/10/2011 6:25:00 PM
I'll never need any other brow pencil, this pencil does it for me I have it in black (I'm arabic I have black hair black eyes). It was very hard to find an eyebrow pencil that is just black! Most are dark brown and that just looks wrong and too obvious on me because my hair is jet black. Unlike other brow pencils this one has a very fine tip, it's an auto-pencil, you don't need to sharpen. The tip is very fine it can mimick the way your eyebrow hair looks like. It's not too creamy it won't smudge and look like you used an eye kohl on your eyebrows, it's really natural looking. I'll always repurchase I'm on my second pencil.

Pressed Powders -MAC - Mineralize Skin Finish Natural - Medium Plus
lawla91 4/10/2011 6:17:00 PM
I bought this like a month ago and I LOVE it, the coverage is really light so for everyday use I apply bobbi brown tinted moisturizer and then finish it with mac skin finish in medium plus. It's very natural looking, most powders look cakey specially if you add them on top of foundation but this one doesn't, and it never breaks me out.

Eye Shadow -NYX - Jumbo Eye Pencil in Strawberry Milk
lawla91 4/10/2011 6:14:00 PM
I really loe this eye-pencil, I use it either as a cream base for pink eyeshadows or under my eyes as a liner and then smudge it abit, it's shimmery so it makes me look more awake, however it creases ALOT, I don't recommend using this as an eyeshadow alone.
