Cleansers -MAC - Makeup Remover Wipes
rated 1 of 5
vbgurlie5757 8/1/2010 4:15:00 AM

I love MAC products so I thought I'd give these a try. Definately wish I hadn't wasted my money. These are the harshest wipes I've ever tried. I used them to remove my eye makeup and they burned my eyes so bad I had to splash water on my face to stop it. They also irritate the skin around my eyes and make it extremely red. They feel rough on my face as well, and I don't really have sensitive skin at all. Since I paid 26 bucks for them and have about 90 left I'm going to use them, but I will never buy these again. I'll definately be sticking with my Target brand wipes.

Lipstick -MAC - Hue

This is probably my favorite MAC lipstick. It looks great on me (I'm an NW25) and paired with the cremesheen glass in fashion scoop it's the perfect light pink lip. Would be perfect for everyday wear because its subtle, but very pretty. Will definately repurchase once my tube runs out.

Polishes -OPI - A Grape Fit
rated 4 of 5

I like the color of this polish. The name suits the color well- it's a nice grape purple. I prefer how it looks on my toes rather than my nails however. And it is almost identical to the new spring polish from sephora by OPI called iris i was thinner. So you dont need both!

Mascara -L'Oreal - Extra Volume Collagen Mascara Blackest Black
rated 5 of 5
vbgurlie5757 4/8/2010 4:41:00 AM

I'm so happy I bought this mascara. I usually spend $20 or so on high end mascaras that don't give me the results I want. But this makes my lashes extremely volumized and even lengthens them slightly. It does dry a little crunchy but I've pretty much found that mascara does that to my lashes so I'll get over it. But I will definately repurchase- I haven't found a mascara that volumizes my lashes like this does in a long time.

Cleansers -L'Oreal - Go 360 Clean Deep Cream Cleanser
rated 4 of 5
vbgurlie5757 4/8/2010 4:34:00 AM

I bought this because I wanted to try the scrublet that comes with it, and I was trying to find something to replace my philosophy face wash because it is so expensive. I like this product and the scrublet makes my face feel really soft and smooth. However, I can't stand the smell- it's an overwhelming menthol scent. It's tingly which can be nice, but it stings if it gets in your eyes. It doesn't make my skin feel really dry and tight like some cleansers too, so I do like that about it. I would consider repurchasing- I might try one of the different formulas and see if they smell any better.

Mascara -Maybelline - Volum' Express The Colossal
rated 3 of 5

I bought this mascara yesterday and was excited to try it based on the reviews I've read but I have to say I was disappointed. When i first started applying it I thought it looked great but once it dried it was flaky and make my eyelashes crunchy. They clumped together alot as well. And I had a headache for about 2 hours from the smell. I'll be sticking with my usual 2000 calorie lash from maxfactor.

Fragrances -Anna Sui - Dolly Girl

I bought this product a year ago after seeing it in Victoria's Secret. It smelled so good in the bottle and I was just like "omg I have to buy this" but after wearing it for a little while I decided it just didn't smell as good on me. But there is a girl in my class that wears it and it smells great on her. So I guess it just depends on the person. The bottle is cute though.

Fragrances -Ralph Lauren - RALPH COOL [DISCONTINUED]

I have used this perfume for about 3 years now and I still love it. I always get compliments on how good I smell and they always tell me it's not too overpowering-just right. However my friend did buy this after smelling me wear it all the time and said that she doesnt like it as much on herself. So I guess it just depends, but this is definately a keeper.

Lip Treatments -Burt's Bees - Beeswax Lip Balm
rated 5 of 5
vbgurlie5757 7/29/2007 12:45:00 AM

LOVE it. My college bookstore sells these, so everytime I go in there I buy 2 tubes because I use them so often. My brother was using a medicine that dried his lips out really badly so I bought him a tube of this and a few days later, his lips had improved 100%. I love the way it smells and it even plumps my lips just a smidge. I will definately keep using this lipbalm until they stop making it (which I hope is never!).

Lipstick -Cargo - Plantlove- Lindsay
rated 5 of 5
vbgurlie5757 7/29/2007 12:38:00 AM

I love this lipstick! I don't ever wear lipstick but when i saw these at Sephora I thought the tube was very cute and the fact that 2 bucks goes to St. Judes was awesome. I always love how Lindsay Lohan's lips look so I figured buying this product would maybe help me achieve that look, and it worked. The color goes on smoothly, is very soft, and lasts a long time. I always put chapstick on beneath this just to prevent cracking or drying, but overall this is a great product and I would definatley buy again. I think I might get "Sarah" next time I'm at Sephora.

Lip Gloss -Hard Candy - Super shine lip gloss
rated 5 of 5
vbgurlie5757 7/29/2007 12:30:00 AM

I just bought this lipgloss in 'fresh' earlier this week and I absolutely LOVE it. I'm not really a big fan of lipgloss, because the ones that I have bought in the past either smell funny, dry really fast, are gloopy, or really sticky but this one is none of the above. The hint of color is great and it seems to last a while on my lips, even after eating or drinking. So I would definately recommend this product.

Mascara -Urban Decay - Big Fatty Mascara
rated 3 of 5
vbgurlie5757 7/29/2007 12:19:00 AM

I just bought this mascara earlier this week and I have worn it twice and I'm pretty disappointed in it. I thought the tube was cute, and the wand brush was HUGE so I was like well what the heck? But it doesn't really make my lashes longer or thicker, just kinda blah. I found that it did go on smoothly though, and didn't clump which is always a plus. But after this, I'm just gonna stick with using 2000 calorie from maxfactor because it is by far the best mascara I've purchased.

Mascara -Christian Dior - Diorshow Mascara

I was extremely disappointed when I tried this mascara. After hearing about how amazing of a product it is, I knew I had to try it. It worked the same as any mascara you could buy at walmart. My eyelashes definately didn't look fuller or longer. A waste of $23.

Mascara -Max Factor - 2000 Calorie Mascara
rated 5 of 5
vbgurlie5757 7/29/2007 12:05:00 AM

I love this mascara. I find that it's the only one that i actually go back and buy. I think I have tried every single kind of mascara out there, even the really expensive ones and I don't think that any of them are as good as this one. I use the one with the curved brush and I think that it really gives my lashes fullness and volume. And it's pretty inexpensive which is a plus.
