Liquid -Laura Mercier - Laura Mercier Oil Free Foundation

i so wanted to LOVE this item. since it's on the 'best of' of every beauty insider list. hmmmmmm... i do just as the sales lady said.. put some foundation on hand, spritz sponge with water, blend blend blend. no matter what i do, it's still a lil to thick for me and it's such a hassle that i need water to apply my foundation everyday. also, i do have oily skin but for some reason this foundation made my skin feel so dry-- that it's uncomfortable. that goes to say, the oil control part really works.. but overall.. it just didn't work for me. ps. i did go back and exchange for the moisturizing one and it worked out better on me! though i still do not like having to blend with water everyday...

this stuff really really works. turns any of my shawdow into awesome looking liquid liner. didn't really notice that the parts of shadow exposed to this is ruined, until i read the previous reviews and went to check on my shadows. it's true--- gotta stick to a safe corner to allow usage of shadow later on. anyhow, this is a great product. my liner stays on all day!

Got it on sale at a great price! It works just as well as my expensive Lancome Artliner and cost so much less! I can easily draw a fine line with no prob. I got it in Silver Sparkling Black.

I still SHINED.......... SHINED........... too bad it didn't work for me. And I agree with the previous reviewer, they should mention it's tinted!

Eyeliner -Lancome - Artliner
rated 4 of 5

I must admit, I really really like this eyeliner. Works great, easy to handle, and I can get a thin or thick line, depending on the look I am after. But it is quite expensive. I am contemplating whether to buy this again or in any of the other shades, cuz of the price-- but it is the best liquid liner I've used so far! I do recommend it.PS.. a few weeks later.. it flakes and cakes! =(

Eyeliner -Lancome - Artliner - Blueberry

I must admit, I really really like this eyeliner. Works great, easy to handle, and I can get a thin or thick line, depending on the look I am after. But it is quite expensive. I am happy with the color Blueberry, since blue is my fave colour and black tend to look too harsh on me. I top the eyeliner off with blue/violet mascara and blue shadow, cool effect. I am contemplating whether I will buy this again or in any of the other shades-- but it is the best liquid liner I've used so far!

Juicy, shiny, good color selection-- but overpriced. Try Loreal's Colour Juice lipgloss! From the same company!

Hair Styling Tools -Conair - Conair Satin Finish, Instant Heat Ultra Slim Straightener, 3/4 inch
rated 4 of 5

Easy to use, inexpensive, heats up fast. I have thick wavy hair and this straightens my hair out fairly well. It doesn't get it stick straight like those super expensive ceramic straight irons, but works well enough for it's price. The packaging is ok, and I like the shape. The 3/4" size is easy to maneuver.

Mascara -Maybelline - Lash Discovery Mascara

My sister recommended this. We both have short stick straight lashes, and this works great in finding even all the short ones-- thanks to the small brush. I like it, not dramatic enough for night but a great day mascara.

Eyeliner -Clinique - Quickliner for Eyes
rated 3 of 5
snowbb 5/23/2004 12:21:00 AM

Easy smooth application. Nice creamy consistency. I agree with some previous reviews, this is not the liner to use if you want a clean straight line. Quickliner is more suitable for the smoky eye effect. I have it in Smoky Brown and it's a nice soft color.

Got this as a gift. Since I am pretty fair-skinned this color is way too dark on me! But I figure out a way to work around it-- apply it with a light hand and go over it with clear gloss. Nice effect. =)

I love this pencil! I wanted it in any of the blue shades, but they were all sold out so I got it in Trailer Trash. So now I just apply this over my color eye shawdows. Great for a night out.

Eyeliner -Make Up For Ever - Eye Pencil

Great matte eyeliner. My fave is Revlon's High Dimension in black flash. However that is sometimes too flashy for daytime, so I'll use this one for a nice, simple, and clean line.
