Polishes -OPI - Malaga Wine
vmelkic 9/7/2009 1:16:00 PM
This red is really perfect! I think I really don't need any other than this one and I will definitely buy it again! It's really the most beautiful red nail polish I've ever seen and I have quite many of them. :))) It's deep sexy red color. Perfect for day, night, summer, winter, whatever! :)

Blush -MAC - Mineralize Skinfinish in Blonde Degradé
vmelkic 9/1/2009 5:17:00 PM
I'm really glad that I bought this MSF instead of Redhead because this one is much lighter although I am a redhead but it would definitely be too dark for me during winter because I'm quite fair then. I love all 4 colors, and I love the fact that you can mix them or use them separately which basically means I have 4 blushes/highlighters and all that for only 30$ approx. I love 2 lighter shades which I can use on top of the 2 darker shades as a higlighter. This MSF lasts quite long on my skin, the whole day basically and it really looks great! I'll definitely try it as an e/s so I'll edit my review a bit later. :) p.s. I would not buy this product again because this one MSF will last me for years. :D

Fragrances -Chanel - Allure for women
vmelkic 8/29/2009 5:12:00 AM
I have only sample size so I was trying this on my hand and must admit I like this grandma-reminding perfume. :love: I would wear it now because it's just so not me, but I think I'll buy it in about 10-15 years or so, if it still will be available. :) It's really sophisticated, feminine and to some point sexy and it's definitely perfect for warm (not hot) evenings.

Eyeliner -Unlisted Brand - BeYu - Soft liner 670 - for eyes and more
vmelkic 8/28/2009 2:14:00 PM
I LOVE this liners! LOVE! It's a true green that looks kinda metallic under light but actually it's with a bit of green shimmer in it, not too creamy but creamy enough, doesn't smudge, makes my green eyes look even more green than they are, applies nicely. I really don't have anything bad to say about this liner. It is one of my favorites (and I have bunch of liners :D).

Top/Base Coats -Sally Hansen - Diamond Strength Diamond Shine Top and Base Coat
vmelkic 8/28/2009 1:58:00 PM
I use it as a base and top coat and I find it quite working for me. :) It has a subtile shine, no matter if I use it alone or as a top coat, but I love how my polish looks when I use it as a top coat. It dries really quickly when used as base, but as a top coat it depends which polish I use (OPI takes more to dry than Color Club polishes for example). The only minus I have is the brush - it's too thin, would be better if it was a bit thicker. :)

Brows -Rimmel - Professional Eyebrow Pencil
vmelkic 8/28/2009 1:24:00 PM
I have this in YEARS! I have it 004 - Black shade. :) I really love it and it's the only thin I use for my brows. It defines them very well and I like how my brows look like after I fill them a bit with this pencil. :)

Highlighters -Sephora - Highlight Compact Powder - Rose
vmelkic 8/28/2009 12:22:00 PM
I really loved this product at the beginning but after getting it I realized there are some better highlighters than this one but still, I really like it and I'm kinda emotionaly attached to this highlighter because it's the 1st one I ever got. Anyway, shows up okay on my skin (NC20-25) although I would prefer more color. :) I love the packaging and I think it's quite huge and it's a great deal. :)

Makeup Brushes -Coastal Scents - Chisel Fluff/Pointed Crease Duet
vmelkic 8/28/2009 11:08:00 AM
I hate dual brushes and wouldn't buy it again. :/ The pointed crease side is pretty okay, worked fine for me, used it for some details while drawing something on my face for some make up contests and it showed up as quite great for that kinda stuff. The chisel fluff side is a bit too fluffy for applying eyeshadows but for that price - can't expect much more. :)

Makeup Brushes -Coastal Scents - IB 109 Chisel Fluff
vmelkic 8/28/2009 11:00:00 AM
It's really a great brush, worth those few $ I paid for it :D Brush handle is really nice, painted, not too long. The bristles are good although a bit too soft for my taste, but good. Dries quickly.

Makeup Brushes -Coastal Scents - Tapered Crease Eye Brush (MAC 226 dupe)
vmelkic 8/28/2009 10:56:00 AM
I thought this was a bit bigger brush but actually it's quite small and too small for my lids. Can't blend with it a bit. :/

Makeup Brushes -Coastal Scents - Pink Kabuki
vmelkic 8/28/2009 10:51:00 AM
I got mine as a gift for birthday and must say it's really such a cute brush and I love it! It's really soft, blends my foundation very well so it's a good deal for 4.99$. Still, it's a bit too small for my taste. I'm used to bigger kabuki brushes. :)

Makeup Brushes -Coastal Scents - Shadow/liner brush
vmelkic 8/28/2009 10:47:00 AM
I've actually used only liner side of the brush so I can review only that part. :D The liner brush is really thin, you can get a perfect line with it and the best off all - cheap, cheap, cheap! It costc only 2.99$! It's a great deal! BUT, I don't like the packaging because the other part of the brush is useless - bristles aren't straight on it anymore because I keep this brush in a cup on the shadow brush side. :/ Too bad. :( Anyway, That's why the 4 lippies are for. :)

Makeup Brushes -Coastal Scents - Sable Blending Brush (MAC 224 dupe)
vmelkic 8/28/2009 10:41:00 AM
This is my only blending brush but I will buy this one again because you get great deal on it - it costs only 2.90$! I don't have MAC 224 so I can't compare it with that one, but still, it's worth buying and trying it. I have quite bigger lids so it's perfect for me. The bristles are really soft and they blend really easily but you gotta be careful not to wet it to much because it's not possible to blend with it. It really needs minimum water for wet look. :)

Makeup Brushes -Coastal Scents - Foundation Concealer Brush Large
vmelkic 8/28/2009 10:37:00 AM
I really love this brush. This is my 1st foundation brush and I was really surprised how easy it is to apply liquid foundation with it and how easily I get that 'photoshop look'. :) Bristles are really soft and after multiple washing the same as they were in the beginning. Sometimes Also, at first I thought it's a bit too long handle but with time I got used to it. Anyway, really nice brush and not expensive at all. :)
