Lipstick -MAC - Yash

This is a matte brownish peach color and it looks like the perfect nude on my Indian skintone. I'm an NC20/25, bobbi brown warm sand for reference. This is the perfect nude for people with light to medium olive, or yellow based skinned tones. This might not work for someone is is extremely pale with a pink based skintone however. This seemed very similar to Cherish as it looked almost the same on my lips. However, when I swatched it on a white piece of paper, I discovered that Cherish is a bit lighter and a tad bit peachier than this.

Blush -NARS - Deep Throat
rated 5 of 5

Deep throat is a very pretty pink coral blush with shimmer. It is more pink than nars orgasm with less shimmer. This blush has been a constant staple for me over the years and I find myself reaching for this blush more than Orgasm. For reference I am a BB sand/ warm sand, LM in Nude in TM, and Becca banana.

Lip Gloss -Bobbi Brown - Creamy Color Gloss in Bare
rated 3 of 5

Bare is a neutral pink brown lipgloss. It is slightly lighter than brown l/g but pretty similar. This lipgloss might look good on many skintones. The texture is thick and lasts longer than other lipglosses. Unfortunately, the brush is awful.

Gloss is a clear lipgloss that has the bloom mandarian/vanilla scent. It is not as sticky as mac or bobbi brown. It has that typical bloom lipgloss texture.

This is a pinky-plum lipgloss. Another description is a mauve wine ligloss. Looks great on me and looks natural and very flattering on my NC25 skintone.

Blush -Stila - Rouge Pots -Amaryllis
rated 2 of 5
sonnie_art 7/25/2004 9:42:00 PM

The color is a peachy apricot. It is a nice color but it is so sheer that it disappears and blends into my yellow toned skin. It reminds me of benefit georgia. My other gripes are the quality of the product and the container. The container is awkward to apply with your fingers especially if you have long nails, the opening is not big enough. The product itself goes on nicely but then it dries to a powder finish leaving the surface spotted an even especially if you skin is just a bit dry.

Blush -Stila - Rouge Pot Lotus
rated 4 of 5
sonnie_art 7/25/2004 9:40:00 PM

Lotus is a very pretty pink color. A beautiful pink that has hints of mauve and rose. It looks like a pink rose. My only gripes are the quality of the product and the container. The container is awkward to apply with your fingers especially if you have long nails, the opening is not big enough. The product itself goes on nicely but then it dries to a powder finish leaving the surface spotted an even especially if you skin is just a bit dry. I tried different ways to work with this product but it did not blend into my skin like cc do.

Blush -Stila - Rouge Pots - Sweet Pea
rated 3 of 5
sonnie_art 7/25/2004 9:36:00 PM

Lovely color. It is a very deep pink color that you can make lighter or darker. My only gripes are the quality of the product and the container. The container is awkward to apply with your fingers especially if you have long nails, the opening is not big enough. The product itself goes on nicely but then it dries to a powder finish leaving the surface spotted an even especially if you skin is just a bit dry. The sweet pea color is too intense too use too much but if you use a tiny bit it disappears.

Lip Gloss -Stila - Apricot Lip Glaze
rated 2 of 5
sonnie_art 7/25/2004 5:36:00 PM

Apricot is a very sheer lipgloss with a milky light orange tint. It basically looks for the most part clear on your lips. It is very shiny and sticky and does smell like apricots but I would save your money and get a clear lipgloss instead unless you really like apricot scents.

Lip Gloss -Bobbi Brown - Shimmer Lip Gloss - Pearl Sugar
rated 4 of 5
sonnie_art 6/27/2004 1:29:00 PM

Pearl sugar is a light champagne with hints of peachy pink shimmering lipgloss. It makes lips look quite nude and toned down. It is very similar to Club Monaco sugar. When swatched on the hand it appears much lighter and more champagne then Club Monaco sugar l/g/, Club Monaco sugar looks like a beige pinky shimmering gloss. However when applied on the lips it looks similar because it goes on sheerer compared to Club Monaco sugar l/g which goes on very thick. So the effect is very similar except Club Monaco sugar looks more denser on the lips. Since they discontinued Club Monaco l/g I might buy this again when I finish my stock pile of Club Monaco l/g that I hoarded.

Highlighters -Bobbi Brown - Beige Shimmer Brick Shimmerbrick
rated 5 of 5
sonnie_art 6/21/2004 9:01:00 PM

I love this shimmerbrick. I think this is my favorite of all of them and I have all three. It really flatters my bobbi brown sand/warm sand coloring. It is a golden beige that gives you a nice glow. Pink was a bit too shimmerly but still was nice, bronze was a tad bit dark but again nice, but this is just right.

Lip Gloss -Bobbi Brown - Tangerine
rated 4 of 5
sonnie_art 6/21/2004 8:57:00 PM

Tsngerine is a peachy pink l/g that seems perfect for daytime. It seems to be too playful for the night time. When I tried this in the store I felt like a was a kid again. Basically it is a fun lipgloss. It is not as serious as pictured in the summer(pic in my profile) In factit doesn't look like that at all) much to my disappointment. It looks closer to the print out of the summer look that you get at the counters but I feel like this is still a bit lighter. I believe the model's lips are more pigmented. I already have nicer glosses than this club monaco cherub, bloom melon, stila lipglazes in tangerine, and orange so I passed on buying this for now.

Huge rave for me. It freshes my undereye area and does not make the concealer look dry. I use it on top of the concealer with no problems. I love this.
