My HG moisturizer now... i can't live without it. Great makeup base, non oily and does not clog or irritate my skin. I buy it again and again...

Blush -Stila - Rouge Pots - Sweet Pea

I love the packaging but I can't say the same for the product. I expected a little more given the hype. However, it accentuate imperfections too easily for me to love this. I still prefer Stila convertible colours which is more forgiving on imperfect skin. Sweet pea is a little too bright pink on LLL me.

Eye Shadow -Biotherm - Play On Free - # 10

The packaging is sucky as the previous reviewer mentioned. However, the staying power is pretty good. This is a very fine shimmery vanilla tone loose eyeshadow. There's more gold than white to it when applied. Pretty subtle in brightening up your eyes.

I use it all over my face. Not very moisturizing and no shimmer or highlighting effect whatsoever. What's its point?

Blush -BeneFit Cosmetics - Dandelion

Yeah! I finally found my HG foolproof powder blush for everyday use! This gives me just the right peachy pink cheeks I wish I have naturally. It applies sheerly but it's pigmented enough. Very very natural... I think the most natural powder blush I have. I love this soooo much! I'm glad I decided to shell out the money for this... Obscenely expensive though it was. I'm glad this lives up to its hype!

Very generously sized. Lovely light but pigmented pink with peachy tint. This might be my HG light pink gloss.

Very nice nude shade with a peachy tint to it (or is it just my natural nail colour?). Apply easily and smoothly. Can be worn very sheer or layered on for more coverage.

Polishes -OPI - Hawaiian Orchid

Lovely medium pink with lavender undertone. It looks similar to Dior Addict #290 but #290 is much prettier so I can only give this 4 lipsticks.

Polishes -OPI - Infatuation

I disdain OPI nail colour at first. But this made me change my mind! It's a very natural looking peachy pink medium coverage colour. Not too bright or intense yet noticeably pretty. I have compliments on it. Try it for summer! Quality wise, this is not as hardy as Dior Addict but with a good topcoat, it'll do well.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Pigment in Steel Blue
rated 3 of 5
mountainshadow 8/15/2004 3:52:00 PM

Hmm... I wanted to love this but it's not easy to pull off. It's a bright blue with chunky gold glitters. I love blue but this is a little dated cos' it's pure blue... a bit too 80s worn by itself. Since I have single eyelids, I usually only apply one eyecolour at a time.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Rose Pro Pigment Powder
rated 3 of 5
mountainshadow 8/15/2004 3:49:00 PM

This is a pretty bright medium pink with chunky gold glitters. I'm giving it 3 lipsticks cos' it's usable when mixed with some lip gloss. But I'm not fond of metallic lip colours so it's not really my thing. On my eyes, It looks simply awful but then again reddish colours don't work for me.

Palettes -Stila - Holiday 2003 Confections for Lips and Cheeks

The metal packaging is really sturdy and beautiful. I love convertible colours and lipgloss so this is perfect for me. It's always in my bring out makeup pouch. The colours are all pretty but the lipglosses are kinda drying and not pigmented enough for me. However, it's so cute I think it's worth getting this. I like it so much I bought one for my friend's birthday too! And she loves it! =)

Eye Shadow -Stila - Kitten
rated 4 of 5

This is the Stila eyeshadow with the softest texture I have tried. It's a dream to apply and the beige colour simply melts into my skin. However, because it is so soft, it's easy to overapply so it can look a little too thick/ intense. Extremely shimmery so it's not for the faint hearted. I tried to apply under my eyes to diffuse my dark eye shadow too. Bad idea... haha... I ended up with 2 touchlight eyes.
