I bought this brush a couple of months ago and didnt know what to use it for ....yesterday i used it to apply my foundation...OMG flawless coverage this is my hg foundation brush from now on along with the ss108 to difuse the edges and add highlight. It does shed a little but i'm prepared to put up with it for the finnish it gives my ageing face

I have just received this by post in the back 2 mac uk programme..I chose it primarily because it is my name ..but i love the soft golden peach colour it's a great stand alone colour or equally to lighten a darker shade...the only problem with mac lipsticks is I want to eat them off as they taste/smell so good

i was looking for a soft narural brown for day time and more neutral eyes...I came across this and am soooo pleased with this product just perfect for my colouring which is fair with sunkissed freckles (lol). It glides on smoothly and defines the eye whilthout any harshness

If you have a youthful oily skin this product may work for you...as for my dry ageing skin it definitely did NOT enhance my complexion. it was very drying and clogged to my fine lines and crinkles ( a much nicer word to use than wrinkles) it did have a nice glow but just looked caked after a couple of hours wear.......I will stick to my Nars Sheer Glow and Chanel Vitalumiere from now on...at the end of the day you get what you pay for

I bought this Lipstick by mistake..I wanted Sandy B but said Ramblin Rose instead. I was a bit dissapointed when i opened my packages, but applied it anyway....WOW this is the perfect lip colour for me...i am fair skinned with auburn undertones & blonde highlights hair with slight freckles in the summer time...this will always be a staple in my ever increasing collection

I bought this product after watching a review on youtube i use it over Milani Luminous blush or Benefit coralista to add a peachy shimmer to the apples of my cheeks...it gives a lovely shine, diffuses any harshness and leaves a fresh finnish...not pigmented enough IMO to use on own but i love this blush and it is a staple of my daily beauty routine

Liquid -NARS - Sheer Glow Foundation

I have been using this foundation for a fortnight....I absolutely LOVE IT.!!!!!...it glides on smoothly and blends easily to leave a flawless natural finnish...the colour I use is Santa Fe and it's a perfect match for my NW 15- NW 20 complexion. it has a more yellowy tone than a peach tone as with all their shades i saw....I was at a wedding recently and my makeup looked as fresh at 12pm as it did at 12am.... 12 solid hours and it hadn't slipped or disappeared...think this could be my HG

Eyeliner -Stila - Kajal Eye Liner in Topaz

I am still trying to find a HG eye brightening liner (not White)...this is not it ...I look bug eyed as soon as i apply it and it makes me look like i am coming down with conjunctivitis..thank god this product only lasts minutes on the waterline....as i would be in agony trying to remove the awful stuff.. i think the problem is that the colour is too matte as waterlines tend to look a little glisteney....I will look for one with a shimmer in...the only good thing i can say is it has a lovely soft consitency

Makeup Brushes -MAC - #168 Large Angled Contour Brush
rated 2 of 5
mrs1shorty 3/27/2010 10:17:00 AM

I have recently purchased the 168 and at first all was good....perfect highlight and contour brush....as i was only spot cleaning with clinique brush cleanser no problems...but omg i washed it with warm water and baby shampoo as i have my countless other brushes....what a nightmare...the brush has lost all it's shape and has gone too soft and fluffy so the contour colour ends up squashing all over my cheek...not a good look. As mac brushes are very expensive i expected it to hold it's shape and form for longer than 1 wash

I have recently purchased this lipstick....at first I thought it didn't suit me, as it washed me out a bit...but I found that if I wore a darker lipliner it worked fine...nice creamy texture,but doesn't stay on long enough, as I am a long last lipstick woman
