Lip Treatments -Maybelline - Baby Lips lip balm

This is a pretty good product. I purchased one of the clear ones, didn't want a color or tint for a lip balm. Not really sure on the price, I think it should be a little bit cheaper so I'm not sure if I will purchase it again. There should be a maybe option on the "Would you buy this product again?"

Lipstick -MAC - Candy Yum-Yum

The last question is would you buy it again? Yes, but that is because I had no choice, I ordered it before the Holiday and I wanted to wear it for NYE. So I did and it looked fab, I used it with white lipmix and it was a beautiful ombre color but the reason why I had to repurchase it was because I lost it on NYE, smh!! I was so devasted & upset that I had to pay for it again when I only used it 1x but I will say I am very happy with it and glad that it did become available again! I hope I don't have to buy it again any time soon!!

Lipstick -MAC - Violetta Amplified (Pro)
rated 4 of 5
malston81 10/13/2012 8:50:00 AM

I bought this awhile ago at imats or the makeup show (both in nyc) but put it in my mua kit for clients, which I later totally forgot about. Then one day, recently I went into my kit to look for some business cards & just so happened to find it!! So I decided to clean it off with rubbing alcohol & keep in my personal collection!! It's such a pretty & bold color, I don't know why I didn't keep it for myself in the first place!! Smh!! Love it just wish I could have gotten heroin that's kinda similar to violetta when that came out!!

Lipstick -MAC - Impassioned (Amplified)
rated 4 of 5
malston81 4/21/2012 8:17:00 PM

I just purchased this yesterday & wore it last night with magenta lipliner (the mac sales guy recommended it). The color is pretty coral pinkish. I wanted to have that gradient look but throughout the night it just blended & looked hot pink. I still like it but the only thing is at the end of the night when I was ready to take it off it left like a stain on my lips even the next morning they were still tinted. That was the only issue thus far but I guess maybe the amplified lipsticks leave a stain on your lips.

Lipstick -MAC - Up The Amp
rated 5 of 5
malston81 4/21/2012 7:46:00 PM

I got this as a b2mac yesterday, I wanted something bold & everything I picked up was an amplified so I chose this & impassioned. When I asked the mac guy what could I pair it with he said I could try it with dazzleglass funtabulous, which I already had...YAY!! But anyways, when I got home I tried it & I loved!! Def can be worn during the day or night!! I don't know why I never looked at it before but I think it stood out to me this time is because I wanted the new purple heroine color which of course was sold out : ( but im happy with my choice!! I want more amplified colors and took note of which ones for future reference.

Lip Treatments -MAC - Tendertones [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5
malston81 2/28/2012 10:59:00 AM

I heard about these a couple years ago & have been wanting to try get one but at the time I had to settle for L'oreal's hip jelly balm (plush 120) which are alright, you don't get much as the tendertones and the texture is a bit thicker. However, back to the tendertones I recently was able to get the green one, tread gently. Which I really like, its feels & smells good!! I would definitley get another one, if available.

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Naked 2 Palette
rated 4 of 5
malston81 2/26/2012 1:46:00 PM

I saw the hype for the first one but for some reason it didnt really interest me but when i saw some yt videos about the 2nd one it got me a bit interested so i finally decided to buy with an exchange i had so i really didnt have to pay full price. But i really like it, the eyeshadows are nice for a neutral daytime look or a bold going out look. Every nice & i like the packaging. I dont know if i would buy it again bcuz it seems like it will last for awhile & its a bit pricy for $50.

I bought this product to subsitute using gel on my edges but I am on the fence about this product. I love the way it smells but I don't know how I feel about it, I don't feel like it lays my edges down as good as gel would.

Lip Gloss -E.L.F. - Studio Lip Stain
rated 1 of 5
malston81 5/5/2011 12:03:00 AM

I actually got Birthday Suit from target because it was only a $1 and the color looked so cute but when I tried it, it just wasn't working for me. It reminded me of the NYX soft matte lip stuff (which I didn't like either). I guess since its a lip stain it doesn't give much color pay off & the clear gloss didn't do much either. Not impressed!!!

I got my first palette at the first ever imats nyc & it was about 20 or 30% off, I got blue/greenish colors (the 5 round palette even tho I wanted the squares but anyways I really like the colors, magnetic packaging, high pigmentation, & the whole freedom system!

Ladies, mac is not the end all be all mu line!!

Blush -MAC - Trace Gold
rated 2 of 5
malston81 4/11/2011 3:39:00 PM

I got this color cuz the mac sa suggested it for me but it turns out I didnt like it, I was trying it as a highlight but it did not show up on me so I decided to exchange it for something else. It reminded me of nars luster (which I already have & felt I didnt need something similar) but luster looks a little darker. Its a pretty light goldy color but just didnt do it for me.

Skincare - Face -MAC - Fix+
rated 5 of 5
malston81 3/30/2011 12:48:00 AM

This is an amazing product! It makes your face feel cool & refreshed, I like to use it before my moisturizer & then after I finish my makeup, its also multipurpose because you can also spray it on ur mu brush before putting eyeshadow on it to help it adhere & make the colors more vibrant!! This my second or third bottle & I will continue to repurchase this product! Its a must have in your skincare & makeup routine!!

Eye Shadow -MAC - Pigment in Violet
rated 5 of 5
malston81 3/18/2011 11:23:00 AM

Hands down love this color, purple is my fav color so I had to get it & I must say its amazing, I used it for a purple smokey eye look, blush & mixed it with some clear lipgloss to make a purple lipcolor (this look was actually used for a photoshoot) but it still looked hot!! But once again my only down fall with all the pigments & reflects is that the container is smaller & there is no filter to help prevent spillage!! If you want color this is a must have pigment!!
