Eye Shadow -Avon - True Color Eyeshadow Duo-Rich Mauve

I really love this eyeshadow duo. The purple color isn't too dark on my fair skin, but rather creates a sort of smoky effect when used with the cream-colored shadow as well. One of my personal favorites.

Lip Gloss -Avon - Soft Repair - - - Pastel Pink

A gorgeous color for lip gloss, pale pink which looks good with my fair skin. It has just the right amount of sparkle, which I like, and it lasts a really long time with a scent that reminds me of strawberries and bubble gum. I'd definitely buy this again.

Fragrances -Calgon - Caribbean Citrus Body Mist

I love the scent, I'm a big citrus fan. Though I expected it to be more like The Body Shop's Satsuma line, I wasn't disappointed. The only thing is that it doesn't last as long as I expected, especially in a hectic school day. I'd buy this again, if the scent lasted longer.

Lips -Avon - Big Stixx Lip Balm

For a lip balm that's 300% bigger than a traditional stick, I had to try this out. I got it in Cherry, sort of disappointed because I was supposed to get Strawberry and the order got mixed up. But this flavor tastes awesome too, and it lasts for so long. Not to mention that it could last me 5 years, at least, with all the stuff in it. Definitely getting it in another flavor.

Lip Treatments -Burt's Bees - Beeswax Lip Balm

I love this stuff. I have it in the tin right now, and I'm going to buy the stick when I get paid. It works really well on my lips and I love the cooling feeling I get from the peppermint in it. It smells great and a little bit of it goes a long way. I know it's going to last me a really long time. I'm definitely buying more when this is gone.

Eyeliner -Avon - Ultra Luxury Eye Liner

This eyeliner is a close second compared to my Glimmersticks eye liner, and I have it in Bronze. Someone below mentioned that they discontinued this shade; it really sucks since it's a gorgeous color that brings out the blue in my eyes. The only problem I have with it is that for some reason, my pencil is extremely hard to sharpen, and I've ruined a lot of the crayon just trying to get it sharp again. Besides that, it's a really great eyeliner.

Eyeliner -Avon - Glimmersticks eye liner

I have this in both Blackest Black and Majestic Plum. Though I've gone through 2 of the black ones in less than a year (i tend to use a lot of eyeliner, as you might have guessed), there isn't much inside of them compared to a plain pencil. But the price is a steal, and it's my favorite eyeliner.

Lip Gloss -Rimmel - Volume Boost Liquid Lipcolour
xhautecouture 9/1/2005 6:48:00 PM
At first, I was sort of hesitant to try this lipgloss, because I've had some problems with other sorts of lip plumping glosses/lipsticks. I got this in Siren, and when I first put it on, I didn't feel any tingle- but I did feel a warming sensation. Nothing like any other ones I tried that practically tingled to a burn on my lips. I don't really like the colors that come in the gloss, the lipstick ones looked better but I don't go for more matte looks. Maybe if they made a nice soft pink color. Anyway, the warm feeling lasts a long time, and I -did- find a little bit of improvement as to plumping. Not too much, but it was a start. I would buy this gloss again, but in a sheer pinkish sort of color if they released one.
