Eye Primer -Urban Decay - Eyeshadow Primer Potion - Original (UDPP)
shattaran 12/28/2010 11:44:00 PM
I really like this primer, I use it under my eyeshadow all the time. It keeps my shadows and liner on all night without smudging at all, through sweat and tears. The colors show up really vibrantly on top of it and my colors don't crease at all. I highly recommend this primer. Though I haven't tried any other alternative primers, I can safely say that this is one of the better ones out there. The only annoying thing : THE PACKAGING! I depotted it after using up all the product I could get using the wand (about half the product gets stuck in the genie bottle curves) and it dried up and I can't use it anymore..)

Eyeliner -MAC - Teddy eye kohl

I actually have very dark hair and medium toned skin, but I absolutely love this eyeliner. Most people would use it if they wanted a softer version of black eyeliner, but I use it even though I have dark hair. It just gives me a softer look and brings out my brown eyes. I love natural looking makeup, and this is definitely natural looking. It stays on forever too (I went swimming with it on, and some was still left over! and it doesn't flake/shed at all either!)

Mascara -Christian Dior - DiorShow Mascara Waterproof

I love this mascara! It's waterproof and doesn't shed at all, but it comes off easily with soap/makeup remover. I already have black lashes, but the black shade really nicely thickens and lengthens my lashes without looking unnatural. This mascara really does look naturally beautiful, I absolutely love it. It also has a nice rose scent. I can't imagine ever using a different mascara (and trust me, I've tried a lot- from Makeup Forever to Covergirl)

Eye Shadow -MAC - Brule

I like this shade a lot. I have dark hair and medium toned skin, and this is the perfect highlighter for me. It's almost like my natural skin color (just a few shades lighter) so it's the perfect natural highlighter. I use it everyday on my browbone and just under my eyes (high cheekbones) I love that it's not TOO light but it's still a good highlighter

Lipstick -MAC - Satin Lipstick in Brave

I really love this lipstick. I have dark hair and medium toned skin, and this lipstick is almost like my natural lip color--it only defines my lips more and makes them look fuller. A friend of mine is extremely pale and has lighter brown hair, and this shade looks amazing on her too. The formula/consistancy is nice, my only problem is that after a while of wearing it it'll start to dry up on my lips and clump w/dead skin cells--just be sure to exfoliate the lips before using it.and i love the smell of mac lipsticks.

Bronzers -NARS - Laguna

I wasn't too sure about this product when I saw all the shimmer in it, but the shimmer is necessary to avoid giving you a dirty look. This bronzer is a really nice golden brown color and matches almost every skin tone (just use it more sparingly on paler skin)..I really like this product
