Lipstick -MAC - Destined
swalker29 9/19/2003 10:42:00 PM
This is my first MAC lipstick purchase ever. This lipstick is from the femme nior collection, Fall 2003. A very beautiful chocolate brown with red undertones. Great for a natural look. I pair it with spice lipliner and also use crystal beach lipglass to add some shimmer to it or tone it down if needed. Love the color!

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lipglass- Pop Mode
swalker29 9/19/2003 10:33:00 PM
I didn't think I would like this because it's purple but it went on my lips a very deep mauve with some slight shimmer. I think it's very similar to Grape en drape. If you look good with mauve lipsticks or glosses this one is worth a try.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Snappy (Frost)
swalker29 8/29/2003 7:16:00 PM
This is a beautiful copper orange eyeshadow which looks great in the crease with my green eyes. It's not got red in it but depending on coloring it takes on a red look to it. It is a frost but didn't look all that frosty on me.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Femme Noir
swalker29 8/29/2003 7:13:00 PM
Just got this eyeshadow today and love it! A deep dark green veluxe eyeshadow. Same texture as the new veluxe eyeshadows that just came out a week or so ago. The MA used it as a liner on me. I have green eyes and am an NC20 and it's beautiful. She paired it with Snappy also from the Femme Nior collection.

Masks -Clinique - Deep Cleansing Emergency Mask [DISCONTINUED]
swalker29 8/23/2003 6:49:00 PM
I have used Queen Helenes Mint Juleup mask to get the blackheads out of my nose. This does the same thing for me. I have oily skin in the t zone and this works well for me. Cleans my pores right out. I doubt I'll buy the big tube because queen helenes does the same for me but if I hadn't discovered queen helenes I'd be using this.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Tilt
swalker29 8/18/2003 2:42:00 PM
I usually use this as a crease e/s but the MAC MA used this on me as a liner. Not only a great e/s as a liner but for the crease. It's a medium blue thats duochrome and flashes a little grey and yellow on me. I have green eyes and this really complements them.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Trax
swalker29 8/18/2003 2:40:00 PM
I know most will rave about this e/s and I use to wear it but have stopped. My natural color of my eyelids in about this color. I wore this out a few days ago with creme de violet in the crease and looked sick and tired and wasn't! I'm a LLL and I think it just clashed with my natural skin color. Too bad too because it's a beautiful soft mauve with gold shimmer.

Masks -Queen Helene - Mint Julep Masque
swalker29 7/30/2003 7:52:00 PM
Everytime someone asked about getting a pimple to develop faster on the skin board someone mentioned this masque. After a while I was curious. It works great for me. I have combo (oily T zone) but actually just got this for pimples. I tried it today on two pimples and on my nose. I have blackheads that barely show up and can't get them out. Well this masque took them all out. Will definitely continue to use this. It does tingle/sting a bit but it didn't leave any type of a rash or irritation. Definitely worth trying out! Very cheap too, I got a huge tube for $3.00!

Eye Shadow -MAC - Creme de Violet eye shadow
swalker29 7/25/2003 8:58:00 PM
I'm a LLL and usually can't wear any type of purple e/s but this works on me. It's got a bit of shimmer and enough pink instead of purple in it that I can pull it off. It's a little more purple on me than trax. Use it in the crease, really brightens my green eyes. I actually have changed my mind on this one. With better lighting when I was out with this combo I realized that this doesn't work for me. Made me look tired and sick. I'm swapping/ed this and trax.

Eye Makeup Remover -Kiehls - Supremely Gentle Eye Make-Up Remover

I got a sample of this and it's lasted forever. A very gentle yet effective eye makeup remover. It's a lotion type based unlike the creamy one I'm use to (Clinique) Will purchase when I run out of the current one I'm using.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lipglass - Dreamy
swalker29 7/25/2003 6:14:00 PM
In my opinion this is a lighter shade of nyphette with a little bit on purple but not much at all. I really like it, very shimmery but also gives the lips some light color.

Eye Shadow -Stila - Summer shadow single
swalker29 7/6/2003 3:03:00 PM
I really like this e/s. A very nice bronze/autunm like color. Usually I can't wear this color but it has enough of a pink? undertone to it that I can pull it off. Great in the crease. I usually use it when I want to tone it down a little. Great bronzey neutral color.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Beauty Marked
swalker29 7/6/2003 2:56:00 PM
I really wanted to like this e/s and it looked pretty on my hand but the red sparkle didn't show on me at all. I've been told it doesn't show because my skin is so pale? So I thougth ok, I'll use it as a liner. The red didn't show then either, even with it wet. I highly suggest trying this out in the store before buying if you are pale skinned. Also, maybe this is just me! The e/s on me just looked black and I already have blacktied so I swapped this.
