Sunscreen -Shiseido - Ultimate Sun Protection Lotion SPF 55 PA+++ [DISCONTINUED]

I love this sunscreen! I've tried so many, but this has really kept my combo skin in check. No need to powder my nose as much! I bought the cream one earlier and although I like that, I LOVE this one. It goes on a little watery, but wait for about 10 minutes and it sinks in nicely.

Blush -BeneFit Cosmetics - Dandelion

I was reluctant to buy this because of the price, but I love it! It gives me a nice darling girly glow. I have fair Asian skin, so it shows up. Although it's a brightening powder, I use it mostly as a blush. I love the little brush it comes with and it smells very sweet.

The sales rep did my face at Macy's and I was hooked! This stuff really smoothed out my skin and toned down my redness. I adore this powder. I introduced it to a friend and she loved it. Makes my skin much more even.

Lip Gloss -Sugar Cosmetics - I scream 4 sugar (12 mini ice cream flavored lip glosses)
thuydoan 9/3/2005 3:12:00 PM
I love this stuff! I bought it on a whim at Ulta and when I was traveling, I realized I left the set at home...and I had to repurchase a second set at Sephora. I love how sweet they taste and the colors are fabulous. They are sheer, but I like that quality. Sometimes I layer a couple one, and sometimes I just put it over a lip stain. The colors wear out naturally and I never feel really, really made up. I love this stuff and I love how portable they are. I like some colors more than others and I wished they labeled the glossies better so I could buy a full size version.

Eyeliner -Laura Mercier - Tightline Cake Eye Liner in Bleu Marine
thuydoan 9/3/2005 3:03:00 PM
My friend did my eyes for a wedding with this stuff and I love it! I got the Bleu Marine and the flat liner brush and it really makes my brown eyes look much wider. It makes you look like you have naturally lush lashes. I'm not really good with liner, but I just dot it at the base of my eyelash, then I put a bit on my eye lid. I finish by lining my eyes with Urban Decay's glittery eyeliner. My eyes sparkle like crazy!

Misc Beauty Tools -Japonesque - Parian Spirit Professional Brush Cleaner
thuydoan 7/27/2005 2:24:00 AM
I had some old brushes that desperately needed cleaning. Someone told me about this cleaner and I love it! It completely perked up my old brushes and made them look new again. However, when I was using it in my living room, my boyfriend was completely overwhelmed by the smell. It is a strong scent, so definitely use it somewhere that's ventilated. I loved it so much, I bought another bottle as back up.

Cleansers -Caudalie - Instant Foaming Cleanser
thuydoan 7/15/2005 3:33:00 PM
This is my favorite cleanser! It doesn't leave my skin dry and it takes off all my makeup with one simple, foamy step. My skin feels clean and not filmy. I recently went to France and bought an entire line of Caudalie products and my skin never felt better. I just wished it wasn't so expensive in the U.S.

Mascara -BeneFit Cosmetics - BADgal Lash
thuydoan 4/10/2005 12:55:00 AM
I wanted to love this product. I found it at Sephora under the listing of a thickening, lengthening and curling mascara. I wanted to believe the hype, but I was let down. I curl my eyelashes and the mascara just straightened it. The formula is also very watery. I have better luck with my Max Factor 2000. I am so sad about it because it sounded so promising.

Brows -BeneFit Cosmetics - Brow-Zing in Medium
thuydoan 6/21/2004 12:29:00 AM
I love the my Brow Zings kit. I had considered Smashbox's Brow Tech, but was sold on Benefit's Brow Zings, because for a few bucks more, you get two brushes and a set of tweezers. The colored wax sets and shapes my brows nicely and the power fills my brows in perfectly. I have dark hair the kits #2 fits me.

Lips -Philosophy - Supernaturals
thuydoan 6/21/2004 12:24:00 AM
I wanted the Supernatural Super Pink, but ended up buying the lips and cheeks kit that has the Supernatural Super Plum. It looked very dark and purply in the container. When I first put it on, I thought it was very purple. But I paired it with Philosophy's Kiss Me Pink and it's a wonderful combination. I wear it nearly every day! I love the Supernatural lip tints!

Blush -Stila - Rouge Pot Lotus
thuydoan 6/21/2004 12:18:00 AM
I just bought Stila's Rouge Pot in the Lotus color. I put it on and I couldn't walk away. It's a very sweet and subtle color that looks very fresh on the skin. It goes on smoothly and evenly and the staying power is great. It's like a very natural pink. I love it!
