I have tried two so far - Miss Bunny and Coqeuttish Clarice (the Disney Tint Toons). I wouldnt have bothered trying MAC TLCs because they just seemed tooo expensive. They are AU$28 over here in Australia..! but the LE disney characters lured me in. LOVE the packaging for these, they are really cute! texture of MAC TLCs is really good, and they are very moisturising. SPF is also a plus. They tend to have a great colour range as well. OVERALL - two thumbs up. GREAT product. though expensive.....

Cute cute CUTE packaging. I only bought this for the little disney picture on the lid. oh okay, not really. the product within is also VERY NICE. I like this colour cos its not too bright (daisy looked wayyy to bright pink for me). lovely scent. YUM!

i got this as a sample. umm.....i like it. But i think my LUSH AOBS is better (my skin feels SOOO soft after AOBS). Its not a BAD product per se, but other products do it better. I have combo/oily skin. I think this might be a bit too harsh for other skin types.

Skincare - Face -Artistry - Moisture Rich Toner
rated 4 of 5

I liked this toner. I have oily/combo skin but i always go for moisturising toners as opposed to alcoholic ones that strip your face of oil. So far i've tried Clinique MCL and the Clairns green-coloured toner for combo skin. This one is on-par with those. Its not doing anything *magic* for my skin, but my moisturiser DOES certainly sink in nicer after applying this toner.

Highlighters -Guerlain - Les Meteorites balls powder

umm....i still sitting on the fence about this product. I am giving it a 4 though because so far i quite like it, but i dont see anything spectacular yet. I like the packaging, and though the scent can be a bit overpowering at times, i like it. I dont see the 'candle lit' glow everyone else is talking about.......but my skin does look different with this on and without. I have combo/oily skin, and my nose is a LOT oiler than my cheeks. This does NOTHING for oily skin (which is expected, bbecause nothing helps with my oily skin). But i dont have anything to complain about this product..not yet anyway. will update....

Fragrances -Chanel - No.5

this is really a classic scent. I like it. I thought this would seem a bit too 'mature' for me because i'm only 20, but i think its a very universal scent. and the lasting power is REALLY good. I sprayed it on one night, and the next morning after tossing and turning in my bed all night, i could still smell the scent on my wrist. i like to wear this out on evenings.

in all honesty - i bought it for the cute cute bottle and the cute name ( i love love...!! ) hehe...i thought the perfume also smelt quite nice...very citrus-y which i like. But the perfume does not last!!!! it doesnt last at all...after a couple of hours i cant smell anything on my skin.

i bought this for AU$20...a bit expensive for a low-end brand but this product is very good! i have this in black - its easy to draw a neat black line along the lashline and it doesnt smudge or flake off during the day. Big thumbs up for this one!

Eyeliner -Fasio - Liquid Eyeliner

I agree with the previous post in that this flakes off after a couple of hours...hrmm.....BIG minus point. I bought this in brown, which looks very nice. its easy to draw a nice neat line (the brush tip is very tapered and thin), but the handle is a bit too long.

I like this brush a lot! It terrific quality for the price...the bristles are synthetic, wonderfully soft, dense and fluffy. applies my loose powder and jurlique silk dust perfectly! Im sure there are definitely better high end brushes out there, but for the price this is really a great product.

plus points: cheap and packaging is cute minus points: this is a terrible undereye concealor. Cakey and settles into fine lines. Please save your money and avoid this.

i tried a sample of this - i liked it. I have combo/oily skin and i liked this as a night moisturiser. while its nothing amazingly special - it does leave my skin nicely hydrated and feeling 'plump' and soft.
