Mascara -Lancome - Hypnose Drama
reinventingMe 1/29/2012 1:02:00 AM
This mascara did not give me volume. It made my lashes Extremely clumpy. I tried separating them with a metal eyelash comb and the mascara flaked. The brush gooped clumps of mascara on it. I could not make it work.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Bloggers Obsession Jealousy Wakes
reinventingMe 6/24/2011 9:31:00 PM
Very disappointed with this color. It is not the unique shadow I had hoped for it to be. The color pay off is poor/sheer. I see a few similar colors in my collection (Estee Lauder shadows and Wet n Wild). This is the first and last time I buy a Mac product on line with out having swatched it first.

Bronzers -NARS - The Multiple in Laguna
reinventingMe 5/29/2011 12:58:00 AM
This bronzer is so beautiful. The color is a warm gold sheen. It gives a natural tan glow that is reminiscent of a Jennifer Lopez bronze glow. Yes, really. The texture is creamy and smooth. It applies lightly, so I do have to build it up. I am a NC25 for reference. I have included a swatch picture of Laguna Powder and Laguna Multiple taken in natural light. I highly recommend the Laguna Multiple.

Lipstick -L'Oreal - Colour Riche - Target Red
reinventingMe 2/9/2011 6:13:00 PM
The color is a very pretty red. Think Gwen Stefani red, the new spokes person for L'Oreal. It is a lighter than Mac Russian Red. It is unscented, a plus for me. The color stays on for a few hours. This is my first Infallible lipstick, so I was surprised at the non-transfer and staying power.

Lipstick -MAC - Heartless (Venomous Villains)
reinventingMe 9/22/2010 9:26:00 PM
Heartless is a true red amplified lipstick from the Venomous Villains line. I was happy to find another red option besides Russian Red (love) and the dry Ruby Woo. I think this color will compliment both warm and cool skin tones (for reference NC25-NC30). The packaging has the stylish Cruella on the front.

Lip Gloss -MAC - MAC Wicked Ways -(Venomous-Villains)
reinventingMe 9/22/2010 9:07:00 PM
MAC Wicked Ways lipglass is a beautiful bright cherry red with very fine shimmers. The color is almost opaque. It is a very wearable red for different skin tones ( ref. NC25).This was my favorite packaging in the VV line because it has Cruella holding little Dalmatian puppies.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Strange Potion (Venomous Villains)
reinventingMe 9/22/2010 8:47:00 PM
This is a pretty sheer coral pearl color. It is similar to Mac Fold and Tuck lip glass but SP is lighter. I used it over fleshpot lipstick so that it would look more pigmented. I am an NC25.

Lipstick -MAC - N Collection ~ 3N
reinventingMe 7/22/2010 2:11:00 PM
This is a Warm sheer pink. I bought this off of Greedbay. Although I do like it, it is not an HG for my NC30 skintone. I pair it with any natural liner. Also, It wears off quite quickly. I would recommend Mac Lazy Day lipstick as a close match (LD has more cool under tone) with a dab of Jazzed in the middle.

Lipstick -MAC - jazzed lipstick
reinventingMe 7/13/2010 1:34:00 AM
I use this color with subculture lipliner. I would only add clear gloss if I wanted a glossy look, so as to not change the beautiful color of the lipstick. It is a pretty coral peach lipstick with great color payoff. It is such a dreamy color. I went in for a back up the next day. NC 25

Blush -NARS - Gina
reinventingMe 6/30/2010 3:38:00 AM
Gina is a beautiful blush for my NC 25-30 skin. It gives my skin a fresh look. I like that it is matte and build-able. I can do a light sweep for an everyday look or I can use more for a more dramatic look. I have been using this with a coral lip (Mac ravishing) for a mono-chromatic Summer look. The only negative is that it is not long lasting.

Lipstick -Tarina Tarantino - Fuchsia Lining Conditioning Lip Sheen
reinventingMe 6/10/2010 5:11:00 PM
First of all if I pay $25 for a lipstick I expect it to be a great formula and beautiful color. I was very disappointed-this was neither. The color looked orange on my lips (NC30). The consistency of the lipstick indicated that the lipstick would not last long in the tube or on my lips.

Lipstick -MAC - Cremesheen Creme Cup
reinventingMe 6/10/2010 5:06:00 PM
The color is a beautiful pink. I like to pair this with Ample Pink plush glass. However, I would not purchase this again. It is a gloppy mess after only 6 uses. It is melted and broken. I keep it in my home in a cool place but it looks like I left it in a hot car. For this reason I will not purchase this again, as I feel so much product is wasted.

Blush -MAC - Superdupernatural - Holiday 2009
reinventingMe 6/10/2010 1:24:00 PM
The color is peach-pink on my nc25-30 skin. I'll admit I was not too sure about buying this blush because in the pan it looked so similar to warm soul. My sister had the SD and tried it on me. True to its name it is a natural blush with an extra degree of being 'put togetherness'. I have only been using blush for a year-I never knew how much it could add to my FOTD. I like to use this blush then use warm soul as a highlight.

This gloss has great color payoff. It has subtle shimmer and last a long time. Looks good over most cool tone pink lipsticks
