Primer/ Corrector -Giorgio Armani - Master Corrector
rated 3 of 5
mixemotion 8/6/2011 11:12:00 AM

This corrector did not do as much as I'd hope it would. I purchased it in #2 orange, as I have blue/purple under eye circles, however, this did not really help conceal them. I have very bad under eye circles and for me this didn't help. I found myself applying a bobbi brown corrector on top, before applying my concealer. I most likely will not purchase again, unless my dark circles become lighter, then I believe this would be a lovely corrector.

Eyeliner -MAC - Smolder eye kohl
rated 4 of 5
mixemotion 8/6/2011 11:07:00 AM

I love this eyeliner. I love the colour and I love how creamy, easy and smooth to apply it is. I do, however, sometimes find myself putting black eyeshadow on top of it so it will look more blended in and also to help the ocassional smudging.

nice nude lipstick, however, not for me. I tan quite a bit, especially in summer, and this makes my lips dissapear! This is better for light skin people, unless you want to go for the no lips look.

Lipstick -MAC - Snob lipstick

I quite enjoy this lipstick. I think it's fun and definately is more of a going out/summer lipstick. I do think it's a bit too pink, especially when I go tanning, I feel it looks a bit too bright.

Makeup Brushes -MAC - 182 Buffer Brush
rated 5 of 5
mixemotion 8/6/2011 10:51:00 AM

LOVE LOVE LOVE this brush! It is so soft and does an amazing job at not make the powder come off cakey looking. It is very expensive to purchase this brush in Australia. $88 which I do believe it such a rip off. I will definately buy it online from the US next time.

I am not a fan of this mascara. It clumps for me and just looks plain bad. Definately not worth the money and will not buy again.

Hair Styling Tools -GHD - Gold Classic styler
rated 5 of 5

I bought the GHD in the MAX size and I absolutely love it! I did own a GHD previously, however, I can see the improvements the new 2011 gold edition has. The plates are so smooth and glides through your hair much nicer than the previous one.

Lip Gloss -NARS - Turkish Delight
rated 3 of 5
mixemotion 8/6/2011 5:48:00 AM

I have a love-hate opinion on this lip gloss. I personally do not understand the huge rave about it. I don't see it as anything special. It is very expensive if you purchase it from Mecca in Aus. Because I heard so many good things about it I went ahead and purchased it for $55AUD. I find that it doesn't always go on smoothly and you sometimes get build-ups in some areas that you have to try and blend in. I wouldn't bother purchasing this item again.

Bronzers -NARS - Laguna
rated 4 of 5
mixemotion 8/6/2011 5:44:00 AM

I adore this bronzer! I use it for contouring with my mac 168 & 109. It is quite expensive in Australia, being $55 from Mecca. I therefore purchased it online for around $35 from the US. I would definately buy this product again!

Liquid -Estee Lauder - Double Wear
rated 3 of 5
mixemotion 8/6/2011 5:37:00 AM

This is a nice foundation if you like full coverage. If you don't get the right amount, it can look cakey. I am NC30 and have the foundation in Pebble (3C1) It's too dark for me, however, it will become sunny soon so I will get tanned again. I most likely will not purchase this again, simply because I don't need this much coverage, also it is $68AUD and I don't like it enough to spend that much. I like changing and trying new foundations. Still searching for the perfect foundation for me!

Cleansers -Clinique - Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm
rated 4 of 5
mixemotion 8/5/2011 12:05:00 PM

I love this makeup remover! it actually does remove pretty much everything on the face and the eyes. The best part is you don't have to use cotton pads like you would for other makeup remover. I would definately buy again, even though it is $55 in Aus..

Palettes -Sleek - Storm Palette
rated 4 of 5
mixemotion 8/4/2011 2:14:00 PM

One word, AMAZING! this palette is beyond good for its price. I was a bit skeptical at first after seeing the cheap price, but was extremely impressed by the pigmentation of the colours. Will definately re-purchase in the future.

Treatments (Eye) -Aveda - green science Firming Eye Creme
rated 2 of 5
mixemotion 7/31/2011 11:30:00 AM

The eye cream does absolutely nothing in terms of helping reduce fine lines etc. The only thing it does it moisturise. Waste of money and will not be purchasing again.
