Cleanser

I bought this to try it out since its has been out for a while and people rave about this product. I thought it was pretty good actually. I expected to be a foam cleanser but to my surprise, it was more gel like. I like it so far and it has rosewater smell. This small bottle was $15. I will keep using this for now. :)

Magnolia Enzyme Exfoliator

I got this from my beautician (Monnie) a few months ago.  She recommended this exfoliator because it is made of fruit enzymes to get rid of dead skin cells. It was about $50 but the results are pretty good so far. I feel really clean after and its not abrasive at all..you pump a quarter size and rub until white particles come out and rinse off.

Make up Forever

I tried the primer and the foundation because of the rave reviews. Sorry to say but the primer is so so, and in fact, it has an interesting smell, a cross between synthetic chemicals and perfume. I think that the tint is a nice touch, it covers imperfections a bit better than the non tinted ones. But still, I can't get over the smell. So I will be returning this. As far as the foundation goes, I really wanted to love it.  Its not that bad, it has good coverage, and its pretty silky smooth. But I still like the results I get from mineral powder so I will just stick to that.

Panasonic eyelash curler

I got this on a wimp on amazon.. for $13 without tax (lol) I think it works okay To use if u need to touch up but not as the primary curler.. It's not strong enough. I use my regular eyelash curler and then if I need to curl further I use this one since u can do it over the mascara. But overall it's a fun gadget!

Update on Oct 6: I like it more now that I use it more. I think i got the hang of how to curl it now!!

This is how it looks when its not turned on: (purple)

This his how it looks when its ready to curl: (pink)

Urban Decay Naked 2 Pallette

I had to post about this because i love it! I bought it since I read and saw the video from Jennifer, From Head to Toe blog.

Been using it since last month and I use it almost everyday. I still need practice in experimenting all the colors.
But normally I use Booty Call, Snakebite, and Suspect for work, and sometimes with the blackout.

Tarte Amazonian Clay 12 Hr Blush

I am looking for a good blush that is not too expensive, although i would like to get the JIll Stewart eventually. So I heard that this was highly raved about and it is made from natural ingredients.I tried this one right next to the highly popular NARS Orgasm and this one had better shimmer. I forgot the exact color name..will update later.

What it is:

A long-wearing, solar-baked blush that lasts up to 12 hours.

What it does:
Infused with natural clay harvested from the banks of the Amazon River and naturally baked by the sun, this nutrient-rich blush benefits all skin types for a fade-free flawless finish for an amazing 12 hours. Inspired by Tarte's bestselling shades of cheek stains and lip tints, the colors range from soft to vivid to suit a wide variety of skintones. For oily skin types, Amazonian clay minimizes oil in and around pores to balance skin and keep product in place. Those with dry skin will benefit from the clay's nourishing and hydrating properties, which naturally restore skin's moisture. Combination skin types can rely on its ability to zero in on skin concerns and deliver benefits to restore complexion harmony. The result? Blush that wears better, longer, and truer!

Becca Eye Tint in Vicuna

I have combination skin type with dry cheeks and oily t-zone and I am always looking for products to help me keep my face shine free.

Lately, with the purchase of the Naked Palette it made me look into primers since I wasn't thrilled with the little tube of Urban Decay eye primer that came with the palette. After reading reviews after reviews and multiple nights of youtube-ing. I settled on Becca Eye Tint in Vicuna. This shade is most compatible with your natural eye lid color out of all the color choices from the line.

I've used it under my eye make up for 2 days and I am loving the result! It keeps my shadow crease free and virbrant, and most importantly shine free!!

You can also use it as eye color and it's very buildable. It's not very expensive either. I will try the Becca face primer next!
