Makeup Brushes -Ecotools - retractable kabuki
librazebra 10/23/2011 11:58:00 AM
Bought this on a trip when I forgot my "good" brush. This is a great little brush for the money. I use it much, much more than my Kevyn Aucoin flat-top. If it went missing I would replace it immediately.

Top/Base Coats -Poshe - Super-Fast Drying Top Coat
librazebra 10/23/2011 11:52:00 AM
I can not keep polish on my natural nails for more than a day. I have tried SV and I have the shrinkage issue that so many others have. Picked up some Poshe at my Dollar General for about $3 a few months ago. I finally realized that it takes 2 coats to really get it to last. 1 coat dries quickly but chips. Kept my polish on for 3 days with no chips at which point I got tired of it and removed it. But still looked great! So for me, 2 coats is the trick!

Fragrances -Avon - Vanilla Soft Musk Cologne Spray [DISCONTINUED]
librazebra 12/3/2006 8:49:00 PM
I "inherited" this from my step-sister when she moved. I don't know WHY Avon would stop making this one. Musky and vanilla with some sort of caramel and raspberry in there, too. Very warm and comforting. PLEASE bring this one back, Avon!!!!

Self Tanners -Avon - Satin Glow Daily Body Moisturizer for Medium Skin Tones
librazebra 6/14/2006 1:18:00 AM
I have tried HT Island Glow and Vaseline Healthy Body Glow. The color from this one is so much better, but it has the strangest smell. Not the normal ST stale cracker smell--I don't really know what you'd call it. Comes in a tube with a twist off lid and has a faint shimmer. No streaks or blotchiness. I will get another tube when this one is finished, but I wish they would do something different with the scent.

Treatments -Biosilk - Silk Therapy
librazebra 12/24/2005 10:08:00 PM
Make my hair so soft and shiney. I love the smell. A little on the expensive side, but I only use a tiny drop every other day. I use when my hair is still a little bit wet, after I apply mousse. I just can't rave about it enough!!!

Hair Color -Garnier - Nutrisse Permanent Creme Hair Color
librazebra 12/24/2005 10:05:00 PM
I haven't colored my hair at home in years, but I had some faded highlights I couldn't stand for one more second. The color I used is #558 choocolate peanut butter. It came out exactly like on the box. The smell is about average and I liked that it came with its own packet of conditioner to use afterward. Dried my hair out a little, but I've been using Biosilk to put some shine back in. The color was very even and consistant. When I went to my 4th grade son's Christmas party the next day all the little boys said "wow" when I walked in the door. Ahh, if only they said that sweet forever!

Treatments -Frederic Fekkai - Protein RX Anti-Breakage Treatment Mask
librazebra 12/22/2005 10:41:00 AM
Man, I love this stuff! I finished my jar yesterday. I'd had it for a few years. I only use it when my hair feels really yucky. It smells so good--like vanilla and coco butter. Makes my hair so soft and bouncy. Like Pantene commerical hair.

Blush -Jane - Blushing Cheeks
librazebra 12/22/2005 10:13:00 AM
I have several of these blushes that I baked out and put into a palette so I don't remember what colors they were. I have had them for a few years and the other day I used one and it broke my cheeks out into a huge itchy rash. I always liked these so I may buy one more since they are so cheap and see if I have the same reaction.

Lip Gloss -Avon - Shine Supreme
librazebra 10/26/2005 10:31:00 AM
I got this in Raisin, which is a brownish red. The color is okay but it doesn't have any staying power. I'm just not really impressed with this product. Not shiny at all. Like someone else said, it's like putting cream shadow on your lips. I would pass on this one.

Polishes -Mary Kay - MK Signature Nail Enamel
librazebra 10/17/2005 9:19:00 PM
I got this in White Lace from my SIL who is a MK rep. I have been looking for a sheer, non shimmery white polish for a long time. I think this one may be just perfect. I will test drive it for a few days and update my review.

Eyeliner -MAC - Fluidline Eye-Liner Gel Brassy
librazebra 10/13/2005 9:09:00 PM
I really wanted to like this. I bought it to use as a liner, but it just doesn't have enough pigment or something. I have used it as a base and it worked okay. I usually use Wet 'n Wild for that so I'm not too impressed with Brassy.
