Lipstick -Wet 'n' Wild - #528 Pink Ice
sadlovepoet 5/31/2006 2:25:00 AM
This lipstick is a frosty, pink shade. For a lot of people, it may be too frosty. Its cool tones contrast with people with warm-colored skin. I think this was made for a pre-teen or teenager just starting out with lipstick or something. It's a safe shade to start with if you're a pre-teen or a teen, so people won't be like "Is she wearing her mom's makeup?" It comes in a plastic tube. The price is around 99 cents. The color lasts for about half an hour but then fades a bit so you might have to reapply.

Cleansers -Yves Rocher - Bio Specific Pore Regulation Purifying Cleanser [DISCONTINUED]

It smelled terrible. Although my skin felt less oily after washing, it had no longterm benefits from this cleanser. My pores were no different after than before using the product.

This stung my eyes, but got the mascara off without leaving a black shadow. It was also good for removing heavy eye shadows.

This came in a green tube with a silver-colored cap. The product has a slight pinkish tint, and is a bit oily once applied. It goes on smoothly, and gives sheer coverage.

I got this in cafe, and the color was shimmery brown. Stiff stuff. Hurts the skin.

Lipstick -Revlon - MoistureStay Lip Color

I found this lipstick in my mom's old makeup box, and it looks so awesome. The shade was current, which is a cool red. When applied, there is this cool effect, like brushing mint-flavored gum across your lips. It doesn't burn, though. The color is smooth and doesn't dry up your lips.

I wanted to get an eyeshadow that was of a neutral color, that wasn't really purplish, greenish, or anything like that. But I put a thin layer on so that it doesn't get frosty, and so that I get a subtle shimmer. I can wear this shade anywhere. I can put a bit more to dress up at night, and put less for day.

Pressed Powders -Cover Girl - Fresh Look Pressed Powder ] [DISCONTINUED]

I got this product in Translucent Light. It's yellow-toned, but goes on a little dark. It does stop shine, but since it is translucent, it would not do much to cover discolorations. When applied, it goes on chalky, though. Like a huge layer of flour on my face.

Lip Gloss -Bonne Bell - Lip Shake
sadlovepoet 5/10/2006 10:45:00 PM
Along with the new lip shake X-treme Strawberries and Cream gloss (which was great), I also have this other one, but the formula is different. The way the swirls are on the container, someone would think it is some sort of pale pink, but it is actually super-frosty, whitish-pink. Nice smell and container, but terrible shade.

Lip Gloss -Bonne Bell - Lip Shake in X-treme strawberries and cream

This gloss has a nice, subtle pink shimmer to it. But after a while, the colors mix together and the color isn't so pink anymore. It becomes more of just a basic shimmery gloss.

Eye Shadow -Aziza - Safari Tones
sadlovepoet 5/9/2006 11:23:00 PM
This stuff is very cheap. Although the price tag says it's $2.95, I got this stuff at a 99 cent store. The colors are neutral and slightly shimmery. The case has a narrow mirror, around 1 centimeter wide and 5 centimeters long. There is a shade of white, light pink, tan, a shade of copper, a darker shade of copper, and gray. There's a tiny applicator that can use up to four shades unless you mix some of them. This stuff fades real fast, and I don't mind reapplying because of the handy mirror. If you really dislike reapplying eyeshadow, then this product isn't for you.

This stuff came with two pencils and a sharpener. I got it in the shade of midnight black but it goes on really faint. I also have to use a lot of pressure to get it to show, and in the end, it fades off too quickly.

Eye Shadow -Cover Girl - Eye Enhancers - Aqua Paradise

This is a shimmery bluish-green eyeshadow. It comes in a plastic container with two sponge applicators on opposite ends of a stick. It contains 2.5 grams or .09oz of eyeshadow stuff. The eyeshadow is highly pigmented and fades just a tiny bit but most of it stays on my lids. I got it on sale for $1.73 in my drugstore, and am satisfied with the product.

Pressed Powders -Cover Girl - Clean
sadlovepoet 5/9/2006 2:20:00 AM
This is a great product and I have it in Ivory. The powder goes on smoothly but gets a little chalky sometimes around the uneven areas. If you have blemishes, you should try to put concealer on first. It comes in a round green compact. The powder stays but occasionally you'll have to retouch.

Eye Shadow -Maybelline - powder eyeshadow
sadlovepoet 5/9/2006 1:37:00 AM
When I saw the Bermuda Sunset shade in the store, I thought it was a sort of orangey-pink eyeshadow. It was one of the cheaper-priced eyeshadow singles from Maybelline ($1.79) so I chose to try it. Turns out, it was actually more of a medium-dark pink. The shadow goes on light. Have to really press the sponge against the stuff to get some decent color. Even then, it doesn't really show, and fades quickly.
