Blush -Canmake - Cheek & Highlight
lilyzy 11/29/2008 8:39:00 PM
I have it in 06. It has two colors, a baby pink and a more saturated pink. It looks like it has a lot of shimmers in the compact but it doesn't show up that much on the cheeks. The color is very cute and sweet looking. Very easy to apply as well.

The colors shows up sheer without eyeshadow primer but colors can be layered and built. Overall the colors are very bright and pretty, has a lot of shimmers and glitters as well.

Polishes -Canmake - Nail polish
lilyzy 11/29/2008 8:27:00 PM
I bought colors 11 and 93. 11 is a clear pink with lots of disco glitter in it and the glitter shows up on nails very densely with 2 coats of application. 93 is a very cute, sweet milky pink with pink shimmers. Looks lovely on fair hands. Unlike many other brands, the glitter comes off very easily with nail polish remover. Just love it!

Mascara -Dejavu (Imju) - Fiberwig Lash Knockout
lilyzy 11/29/2008 8:18:00 PM
A lot of mascara smudges for me but not this one! It stays on forever and does not smudge at all. It doesn't build much volume but does extend the length of the lashes. I recommend a second coat to get more length and volume. Overall, it produces a natural but enhanced look.

Misc Beauty Tools -Shu Uemura - Eyelash Curler
lilyzy 11/29/2008 8:13:00 PM
This eyelash curler does not do a good job at curling the eyelashes at the corners of the eye but then almost no eyelash curlers do. I still need the individual lash curler for the corner jobs. Also the opening is too small. Sometimes it's hard to insert all the eyelashes in there. Otherwise it is a great lash curler.

Makeup Brushes -Bare Escentuals - Kabuki Brush
lilyzy 11/29/2008 8:07:00 PM
This brush is very soft and picks up a lot of powder which means good as a foundation brush for mineral makeup but not really useful in other ways. The silvery handle is cute though.

Loose Powders -Bare Escentuals - Mineral Veil
lilyzy 11/29/2008 8:04:00 PM
This product does work well with the id foundation but it doesn't do anything for my other foundations. As for oil absorbing abilities, it's about average comparing to other loose powders.

Powder -Bare Escentuals - Mineral Powder Foundation
lilyzy 11/29/2008 8:00:00 PM
I bought the 1C shade. The coverage was strong but the feel is too heavy. After using it for a few days consecutively I found some bumps on my skin I had never seen before. They disappeared after I stopped using it. The foundation is also messy and time consuming comparing to other foundations.

Eye Shadow -Revlon - Soft on the Eyes Sheer Loose Shadow
lilyzy 11/29/2008 7:55:00 PM
I have the Head in the Clouds version. The green and purple are very pretty pastels but the color did not show up well even with Urban Decay Primer Potion and I have very fair skin too. I plan to use it only as a light base for other eye shadows.

Brows -Shiseido - eyebrow pencil
lilyzy 11/29/2008 7:50:00 PM
I use the #2 Deep Brown shade. It is a pretty hard pencil which means less mistakes but soft enough for good color. I also like the color, it looks very natural on fair Asian skin with dark brown/black hair. It also lasts for a long time.

Eye Shadow -Milani - Wild Violets Quad
lilyzy 11/29/2008 7:44:00 PM
This quad shadow has a light lilac shadow, a vibrant neon-like purple shadow (which is what makes this compact worth buying), a duller dark purple and a dark wine shade. Not the best purple I've seen but it has its uniqueness and is worth collecting. The purples in this quad has more pink than blue and may make some Asian lids look puffy so be careful.

Eyeliner -Revlon - Marble-ous Match - Sassy Brassy
lilyzy 11/29/2008 7:36:00 PM
This is a great product. The jumbo pencil is very easy to carry around. The shadow end is shimmery light brown and the liner end is dark warm brown. Both ends goes on very smoothly and the color lasts for a long time. Packaging is pretty too.

Eyeliner -Revlon - Marble-ous Match - Set the Nude
lilyzy 11/29/2008 7:32:00 PM
This is a jumbo pencil. The shadow side is shimmery pink beige and the liner is dark brown swirled with gold. The gold in the liner can get in the way with the dark brown. Otherwise it would have been a good product. Silvery package was pretty though.

Eye Shadow -Maybelline - ExpertWear Eye Shadow- Turquoise Jewel

Turquoise Jewel is a very shimmery blue green color. It shows up highly pigmented on skin even without eyeshadow base. Recommended for dramatic looks.

Eyeliner -Revlon - Marble-ous Match - Steeling Beauty
lilyzy 11/29/2008 7:21:00 PM
Shadow side is silvery grey and the liner is purple swirled with light yellow. Both ends are smooth to apply but the liner has too much of the light yellow which ends up ruining the purple color. Otherwise it would have been a good product. The silvery package is very pretty.
