Eyeliner -Unlisted Brand - KOJI - Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner
pneggy 3/30/2013 8:54:00 PM
I don't get the hype. Perhaps mine is a fake---but I don't think so, got it from a highly rated Ebay shop, shipped from HK and packapging looks right. It needs going over several times to be black. It doesn't last very long, within 3-4 hours it is fading and peeling. I much prefer the Lancome Artliner. To be honest the price in the UK is almost the same anyway. It might be not bad for it's buck if bought in HK but definitely not when bought in the UK. The only good thing about it is that it is to be fair quite easy to do, I can get a much finer line than with the artliner.

Foundations -Revlon - Nearly Naked Foundation
pneggy 3/30/2013 8:51:00 PM
This foundation is so good. I've used in the past Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk and Estee Lauder Invisible foundation. I have to say this foundation is very good in terms of coverage, texture, scent. I looks fantastic on the skin just after it has been applied. It does not oxidise. What I will say is that it doesn't last as long as the aforementioned two. Probable 4-6 hours. Armani would stay on until I took it off but Shade 55 was a bit too dark on me and 50 too light. The colour Nu for this Revlon foundation is perfect. I think for your buck it's not bad, only downside is longevity. It doesn't make my pores look worse, it doesn't accentuate dry patches (to be fair I don't have many and it smells rather pleasant - not heavily scented but just smells nice - ya know!

Sunscreen -Unlisted Brand - Supergoop Spf 30+
pneggy 3/12/2013 5:03:00 PM
I bought this from the Space NK website (not the factor 30 but factor 50), it had mixed reviews but it was billed as good for sensitive skin. OMG, it make my skin BURN. In the beginning it felt fine, non greasy and comfortable. Within 4-5 days I had small bumps on my face, then my whole face turned red and scaly, now I'm peeling. NEVER EVER BUY THIS.

Treatments -Avene - Tolerance Extreme Anti-irritating Soothing Cream
pneggy 3/12/2013 5:01:00 PM
So my love of creams and lotions led to me to by the Supergoop! Sunscreen. This led to some sort of chemical burn on my face with lots of little bumps on the face which then led to dry scaly skin and my face is now in the red and peeling phase. I bought this cream as even my Elizabeth Arden 8 hour Skin Protectant seem to be failing. It was on offer 3 for 2 at boots today. This is cream is great, hydrating, soothing non irritating and sinks in like a dream! I would recommend. Not sure how much I'll like it once my skin goes back to normal, but for now it is fantastic and I think if I ever have issues like the one I've been experiencing recently I'll go back to this cream.

Treatments (Eye) -Kiehls - Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado
pneggy 4/27/2011 5:38:00 AM
Really like this. Very hydrating, does not break me out. Sinks in really quickly despite thick consistency. Definitely one of the better eye treatments out there!! Going to try the absinthe one next by kiehls i think, although the caudalie premier cru eye cream also is attractive!

Treatments (Eye) -Lancome - Genefique Eye Cream
pneggy 4/27/2011 5:37:00 AM
Initially really liked it, but in reality this does nothing for me. Does not hydrate very well, the alcohol in it actually ended up after several weeks of usage, dehydrating my skin. Not happy with it, will not buy again. Have given it to my mum.

Treatments -Kiehls - Midnight Recovery Concentrate
pneggy 4/27/2011 5:35:00 AM
This is so so good! I have combination skin but prone to patchy areas of dryness. I am really prone to breakouts, especially since my horrible experience with decleors neroli night balm. I had been using the Lancome Genefique serum which is so much more expensive than this and frankly this is much better! Very hydrating, calms down my skin. My breakouts have really calmed down since starting to use this. I am very pleased with the results. I am not convinced my skins is dramatically better but pleasant to use, hydrating and not breaking me out. Can't ask for much more!!

Polishes -Essie - Jazz
pneggy 4/8/2011 7:12:00 PM
Really nice beige. I think this is a true beige, I don't see any undertones of purple, brown etc. Very flattering and definitely a good work colour. Good solid colour in two coats. Not streaky at all after two coats. Definitely one of the better Essie polishes with regard to application. Dries to a very shiny finish. Really nice.

Bronzers -Yves Saint Laurent - Soleil D'Afrique Collector Sun Powder For The Complexion - 2
pneggy 3/25/2011 5:29:00 PM
AMAZING!!! Bought it on discount at blushcosmetics on ebay. Was in the 2008 summer collection. Really beautiful natural bronzer in a beautiful wood compact. Comes with leather straps which can attach onto compact to make necklace, but I think that's just strange. The product is beautiful though, fine luxurious powder in a massive 16g compact. loves it!

I want to like this, but I don't. The colours are too reddish to be natural for my black brows. I'd have preferred a more greyish undertoned product.

Treatments (Eye) -Origins - GinZing

I really like this. I am not sure how well it moisturises, but it leaves a really nice iridescence under the eyes and makes the area looks brighter. Also, it lasts are REALLY long time!

Treatments -Lancome - genefique
pneggy 1/30/2011 7:10:00 PM
I personally really like this. Very soothing, I think it has made my skin look more glowy. Nothing dramatic in the sense of reducing fine lines thougg. I have suffering a breakout from the decleor neroli night balmm, and this definitely seemed to soothe my skin.
