its my new favorite lipstick <3 <3 you can wear it lightly during the day and it gives that really healthy radiant look~ its a bit pricey too~ (40nzd) but i think that's just in nz.. its probably like, wayyy less in the US? but its such a pretty colour i'd def buy again~

Moisturizers -Clinique - Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief
rainybaby 6/6/2010 2:34:00 AM
for now it seems that i've found my everyday moisturiser~~ last winter i didnt wear any moisturiser at all (>< big mistake i know!) and i dunno if it was the weather that made my skin sensitive or whatever but it broke out big time! this year after using Clinique moisture surge i didnt~~ and its so hydrating without being oily, which i love its a bit more on the pricy side for me (i think.. around 80nzd?) but i'd def def buy again~~

Cleansers -LUSH - Fresh Farmacy
rainybaby 1/24/2010 7:35:00 AM
i love love love love this <3 it smells really good~ and after washing my face with this, it feels SO clean! like, my skin was kinda slippery afterwards~ not the bad 'i have soap residue on my face and my cleanser didn't do a very good job' slippery~ but the good kind... if that makes sense.... anyways i haven't really noticed anything as far as evening out skintone goes? but maybe its just because i wasn't really looking out for that.. anyways i would definitely definitely buy this again <3

Shampoo -LUSH - NEW! Hair
rainybaby 1/24/2010 7:28:00 AM
its such a cute little shampoo bar hehe. it doesn't smell as good as the other Lush products i think~ but its still good nonetheless~ i bought this after a terrible haircut (==") and the BA told me its suppose to stimulate hair growth. i haven't really noticed much of that. though i use this with American Cream and my hair ends up really smooth and shiny~ it was a bit too... tame afterwards? like, straight and shiny, for my liking anyways~ im more looking for hair with more volume. so because of that i won't be buying this again (gonna try New next time =]) but its still a good shampoo~

Cleansers -Za - True White Cleansing Foam
rainybaby 1/24/2010 7:21:00 AM
it cleanses i guess, as far as basic cleansers go. i mean, you can't really expect something that stays on your face for 2min at best to whiten your skin. anyways, this was pretty drying even for my oily skin. it felt kinda tight~ and the next morning it went kinda flaky too. it did nothing for my pimples too, which i get from time to time. at the time when i got it, i was breaking out like crazy~ like, pimples all over my cheeks crazy, which i've NEVER gotten before. so then i tried this cleanser out of desperation~ and it didn't do much~ so yup~ wont be buying this again. in fact, i still have most of the tube sitting in my bathroom haha~

Moisturizers -Za - True White Day Protector
rainybaby 1/24/2010 7:09:00 AM
urgh! all i can say is just.. urgh. the first time i wore it, it looked like i was wearing some sort of geisha make up. and its not as if im dark skinned or anything. i dont wear foundation so i dont know what shade i am, but i have a, like, normal asian skin tone. i dont know why i didnt just go wash my face straight away, instead, i wore it out. it wasn't even the middle of summer with like, 40 degree heat or anything! i remember it was in winter O.O anyways so then i went out for a day, came home, and all the little bumps that would've gone away without turning into pimples turned into pimples! great big ginormous red pimples T_T i don't have acne style break outs~ but i do get a few zits from time to time, and with this, my face looked like the surface of the moon or something :S so gross. i wish i could just not give a lippie at all haha~ so yeah. one of my least favorite products of all time.

Polishes -OPI - Bubble Bath
rainybaby 1/19/2010 9:46:00 PM
i got it cause it was so pretty in the bottle~ but then when i went home and applied it, i dunno if it was the lighting in my room, but it had a bit of a purple tint, and ended up looking kinda sickly. 2 layers gives a more creamy pink though, which i love <3 overall not peachy enough for my liking oh, you have to be careful to use it so it doesnt go streaky~ its also kinda overpriced to buy in nz pharmacies compared to america~

Masks -LUSH - Cupcake Mask
rainybaby 1/19/2010 8:31:00 PM
at first when i used it, it didnt really feel like it was doing much~ and the sales told me to use it once or twice a week~ where you get 4, 5 uses out of the pot, but i found i can get like, 15-20 uses... so i really dont get how people can finish the pot so quickly, cause it lasts foreeevvverrrr O_O (provided it doesnt expire of course...) i use it 2 days in a row, and i stop for one day~ and after about the first week, it started working. i dont have severe acne, but i do get a few zits at times (especially now, since its summer) after the first week (i dunno why nothing really happened the first week haha) like, if there's an emerging pimple or something (small) it'll be gone the next day~ and my skin was really soft and a lot less oily. definitely definitely love <3 <3
