Cleansers -Cerave - Foaming Facial Cleanser
mogwai 6/6/2012 7:16:00 PM
Love this! Cerave, you're my favorite cleanser right now. Great for my oily/combo/sensitive skin. No bad fragrance, no residue, and it does not strip my skin. Love the pump bottle Don't know about makeup removal because I use a separate makeup remover for my eye makeup. Give it a try = you might like it as much as I do!. I use the oily skin version!

Moisturizers -Cerave - Facial Moisturizing Lotion - PM
mogwai 6/6/2012 7:13:00 PM
This is a great lightweight fragrance free moisturizer for my oily/combo/sensitive skin. It really does not have a fragrance and is not greasy. Might not be rich enough for dry skin but for me it's perfect! Love the pump, does not dispense too much product. Will buy again and that is rare for me!

Polishes -Nicole - Party in the Penthouse
mogwai 5/31/2012 8:12:00 PM
This is a beautiful medium blue shimmer which I makes me stare at my nails when I wear it because I love it so! But the best thing is it lasts about a week on me (base, 2 coats and top coat) which is very unusual because I work in health care and wash my hands all the time. I've had this a while and didn't use it. If I was to ever find it again I would definitely buy it ! Off to try more Nicole by OPI.

Cleansers -Olay - Sensitive Skin Foaming Face Wash
mogwai 5/31/2012 8:02:00 PM
Read rave reviews about this and decided to try it. Removed makeup and had no offensive odor (unlike some other fragrance free cleansers I've tried). I have a very oily t-zone which is acne-prone and this seemed to leave a kind of film on my skin so I won't be using it!

Polishes -Wet 'n' Wild - FastDry - Blue Wants to Be a Millionaire

Base and 3 coats - still see through! Went in the garbage. My first wet n Wild nail polish. I guess you get what you pay for is true- at least in this case.

Eye Shadow -Revlon - ColorStay 16 Hour Eye Shadow

Got this in Addictive. Horrible formula, hard to put on , no lasting power. My quad also broke like the other reviewer's. Do not waste your money!

Polishes -Revlon - Nail Enamel - Dreamer
mogwai 3/20/2012 7:42:00 PM
Pretty color, ok application. Horrible wear-tip wear after 2 days. Even cheap Sinful Colors which I would never buy again was better than this. Garbage! Afraid to try Revlon again!

Lips -L'Oreal - Colour Riche Balm
mogwai 1/7/2012 2:16:00 PM
OMG this product makes me gag!! I bought this because I love the Revlon Lip Butters. There are eight colors, 4 of which are too warm for me, Pink Satin was way too light . Rose something was out of stock, so I was left with Tender Mauve (which I bought) and a plum which I didn't. Thank God I didn't buy both because Tender Mauve is going back. The color is fine, mauve with some shimmer to it, but the SMELL is horrible. It has a sunscreen odor to it which makes me ill! Stick with the Revlon unless you don't mind the smell!

Lip Treatments -Jack Black - Intense Therapy Lip Balm spf 25
mogwai 12/30/2011 12:35:00 AM
I got the Black Tea and Blackberry version of this. Two of my favorite bloggers gave the Jack Black line rave reviews so I ordered it from Sephora . I tried it two weeks ago and was unimpressed. Didn't care for the scent which was all blackberry and no black tea and didn't care for the texture (hard to squeeze out of tube). I had a bump on my upper lip and thought nothing of it. Yesterday I used the Jack Black again and I now have another bump on my upper lip. It must be this stuff breaking me out because I haven't had a problem with any other lip gloss or lipstick. Even if it is a coincidence I can't chance it again and am throwing this away. Maybe it is the sunscreen because I have had a problem with sunscreen breaking me out in the past.

Lip Gloss -Urban Decay - Ultraglide in O

Beautiful color, but does not last at all. You can find a cheaper version of this easily. Unlike the previous reviewers, I can't taste any kind of flavor.

Fragrances -Estee Lauder - Sensuous Nude
mogwai 12/3/2011 1:36:00 PM
I like both Sensuous and Sensuous Noir so I was eagerly awaiting Nude when I read about it on the fragrance blogs. Went to Macy's to smell it and thought-meh. Too fruity, too blah and did not purchase it. Tried it again on another trip and couldn't stop sniffing my wrist. Every time I go to the mall I try it on and my daughter said " BUY IT ALREADY!!" I'm asking for it for Christmas because it makes me happy when I put it on even though it is not the kind of scent I usually go for. The problem is it only lasts an hour (if that) on me, but it is not expensive so I'm willing to reapply. Again-crap bottle!

Fragrances -Estee Lauder - Sensuous Noir
mogwai 12/3/2011 1:24:00 PM
I like this, but my husband LOVES this! He is a patchouli lover and I wear it for him because he thinks it is sexy. Lasts forever on me. I will repurchase. Would have given this and Sensuous both 5s but couldn't because of the boring bottles!!

Fragrances -Estee Lauder - Sensuous
mogwai 12/3/2011 1:13:00 PM
As somewhat of a perfume snob I never thought I would like an Estee Lauder scent. As a fledgling perfumista I thought I should sample the classic Youth Dew and while other perfumes have been scrubbers or headache -inducing Youth Dew made me want to cut my arm off because I COULD NOT GET RID OF IT!! Others I have tried I can't abide either. Imagine my surprise when I tried Sensuous based on a review I read online and loved it! It is a great scent for me to put on going out the door to work when I need something subtle. A warm, cozy scent, not really sensuous to me at all. Hate the boring bottle but as someone once said it's the juice that counts. Try it as an everyday sort of scent, you might like it too.

Lip Treatments -Blistex - Revive & Restore
mogwai 12/3/2011 12:44:00 PM
I don't know why I keep trying Blistex items because I'm always disappointed. This is super cheap and the interlocking pots are cute but it's hard to get the product out of the pots. The Revive part made my lips BURN (possibly the sunscreen since I've had issues with sunscreen in my lip treatments before). The RESTORE portion which is really what I bought it for does absolutely nothing to restore my lips. Plain Vaseline is better, Like the previous reviewer said this was a toss. I'd give it a ZERO if I could!!
