Lip Treatments -MAC - Tinted Lip Conditioner - Summerfete
rasberrikisses 5/28/2007 2:29:00 PM
I bought this stuff about two years ago and I still have a lot left. i don't use it all the time, but i do go through phases. It is a pretty natural pink and I LOVE the scent! I hate the fact that I have to dip my finger in it though. It makes my fingers greasy AND I need to have something nearby to wipe the color off. While this was kind of pricy, the stuff lasts forever.I love wearing this in the spring/summer esp sinc eit has spf in it.

I love this stuff!I have used Cocoa in the past, which made my hair a rich, chocolate brown that I loved! I wanted my hair darker, so I used espresso. I love the color! It is a rich, shiny dark brown. I love the way the conditioner smells and it really makes my hair soft. I don't have that yucky, chemical smell or feel after using this. I usually use ths in beween Garnier Nutrisse Dark Chocolate to liven up my color. Love this! Just wished it lasted a little longer!

Mascara -Maybelline - Great Lash Mascara

Okay, I admit it, I listened to the Makeup board about how AWFUL this mascara was, so I hated it and I never even tried it!Well, I was visiting my BFF and I saw she had this in her mu bag. Her lashes always look good and I asked her if she liked this mascara and she said she loved it! So, I decided to try it and I love it too! I have pale and wimpy lashes, but with the right mascara I can get them to look pretty long, I just have to smudge the applicater off so I don't get clumps, but this gives me long, defined lashes for a geat price too! If you are like me and are scared to try this mascara, just try it. It was under 4 bucks and So worth it!

Mascara -MAC - Pro Lash
rasberrikisses 7/17/2006 11:16:00 AM
Okay. Initially I HATED this mascara, I was ready to throw it in the trash. It made my lashes thick and clumpy adding no length whatsoever. But then I decided to try it again. I made sure I wiped off ALL the excess mascara from the wand and applied. I got long, defined and seperated lashes. I definitly won't be throwing this in the trash. I can't say I would buy again for sure, maybe if I was at MAC and out of mascara, but it definitly isn't as horrible as I originally thought.

I really like this! It evens my skintone, feels like I have nothing on, and people always tell me what a great complexion I have when I wear this! I usually wear Superfit, but my skin is looking good now and don't need as much makeup. The only thing is during the summer, this made me slightly greasy, but nothing a little blotting could not help! It is a great winter foundation!

Eye Shadow -MAC - Elite
rasberrikisses 6/21/2005 8:26:00 AM
This shadow was just ok on my light skin. I have very dark hair and green eyes, and this kind of looked orange on me.It did make my green eyes look more green though. I have Stila Bohemian Bronze Trio and this resembles the bronzey color in the trio (I can't tell the difference between the two on my lid) , and since I don't plan on wearing this color much, I am returning it.

Tinted Moisturizer -Neutrogena - Healthy Skin Enhancer SPF 20
rasberrikisses 5/7/2005 4:16:00 PM
I LOVE this! This is just what I was looking for. Tired of covering my skin in mask-like foundation, I wanted something to even my skintone and add a lttle glow, but not completly hide my own skin. I used to have PeRFECT skin, and once I started wearing foundaton, I could never go without it again. I'm still battling some red marks from past acne,so I just dot a little concealer on them and go! I also use powder just as a finishing touch, but I never have to touch up during the day, my skin is normal to dry acne prone and no breakouts from this!UPDATE: Then the breakouts CAME. Yucky zity bumps! My skin is just too sensitive I guess. My mom also had a bad reaction to this?

Tinted Moisturizer -Laura Mercier - Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20
rasberrikisses 4/5/2005 8:35:00 PM
Oh no. I did it AGAIN. I said I was not going to try a new product since I got my skin clear again. Well, I thought there would be no harm in trying a TM, right? So I got this in Nude and LOVED the way my skin looked. I had a few blemishes I used concelear on and my face looked flawless. Until I started breaking out in little umps. I usually get regualr pimples or cystic acne, NOT bumps. I started reading through reviews and found out Iw asn't the only one with this problem. I am SO bummed cause it would be a great product if it wasn't for breaking me out. I also didn't care for the packaging, I would accidently squirt too much out on my hand:(

Skincare - Face -Neutrogena - Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Acne Therapy System
rasberrikisses 3/19/2005 9:50:00 AM
I have had bouts of cystic acne in the past and have even been on antibiotics for it. I was a proactiv user for a while, and it did clear my skin up. I then tried the Rodan and Fields CALM line. It didn't do much more for my skin and had quite a hefty price tag. I stopped both altogether and started using DHC. Well then I started experimenting with foundations, BIG MISTAKE, I began getting cysts again. I did some research and thought I would try out this line. It was MUCH cheaper, snd basically had the same ingredients minus the toner which I never used anyway. The cleanser is not harsh and cleanses my skin well. The overnight lotion is great! I spread a thin layer over my fac and it really dries out my pimples. I tried using this morn and night, and I got a patch of dry skin , but I am dry to begin with. I don't use the daily moisturizer, it's not moisturizing enough for my skin, but I continue to use the overnight lotion in the morning, I just apply it on the blemish and not my entire face. With this and the Proactiv refining mask, my skin is finally clear again! I was Sooo depressed and sad but now I found the perfect regimine!

Masks -Pro Activ - Refining Mask
rasberrikisses 3/19/2005 9:44:00 AM
WOW. I have had this mask for over a year, and when I was using the Proactiv system, I used this once a week. MY skin got clearer, but I just thought it wa sthe sytem in whole. I have continued to use this as a spot treatment overnight. I recently have gotten horrible cysts ,Thanks a lot CG Aquasmooth, and I have tried the neutrogena advanced solutions for acne (it's prety good btw!). But I brought this mask out and decided to try it on my T-zone, which is where my zits are. I used it twice and my skin is MUCH clearer, my cystic acne has shrunk in size and I am in LOVE. I will def start using this twice a week!

YUCK! I used this mascara in the past, and it didn't really stick out in my head. I have been on the hunt for a mascara that creates long, clumpless lashes. Ugh this made my lashes look stumpy and clumpy! Never Again!

Crème -Cover Girl - AquaSmooth SPF15 Make-up
rasberrikisses 3/16/2005 9:48:00 AM
I really wanted to love this, and I did love the way it made my skin look. It covered my blemishes and dark circles well. It did feel a little heavy on, but It didn't bother me much. I had to moisturize well because it show flakies if I didn't. The BUmmer part of this product is it broke me out TERRIBLE! I have had bouts of cystic acne in the past but my skin was looking very nice before I used this product. I guess when my skin looks good, I shouldn't mess with trying out new foundations. I denied that this was the culprit, but I have slowly stopped using it and have had 0 breakouts since, although my face is still recovering from using this! It was addicting in the sense that it made my skin look flawless so I wanted to keep using it! It's so easy to apply too. It would have been great but something in this didn't work well with my skin..

Treatments -Rodan and Fields - CALM cleanser
rasberrikisses 12/16/2004 11:07:00 AM
This product is just ok. I started out using proactive, and it really cleared up my cystic acne. I now only have occasional hormonal breakouts, and was hoping this would help with them. While it didn't do anything great to my skin, it didn't do anything horrible either. I still got my hormonal breakouts. My skin is pretty clear otherwise, but I achieved that with proactive. I will finish this up, but then it's back to proactive for the same results, les money.
