Who remembers the Alexander McQueen collection by MAC? It was a small launch, but it had pops of bright color. These days, I regret not picking up the paint pots, but such is life. At the time, I passed on pretty much the entire collection, but this is a look I did to convince myself I didn't...

Just in time for summer, Victoria's Secret launched a limited edition range of Beauty Rush products called Pool Party. I tried out the Lemonita Body Chiller Glimmer Cream ($12.00 for 5.3 oz.), which is a lightly sweetened lemony scent -- kind of reminds me of a lemon-based margarita. It comes in a...
True Blue Naked's In the Buff Body Polish ($17.50 for 8 oz.) is a creamy body exfoliator with tiny jojoba beads, shea butter, and vitamin E. The scent is kind of a soft lemon-y aroma; not floral, very clean and fresh smelling.
I've found most body scrubs and washes don't have any scents that linger...
LUSH Love Lettuce Fresh Face Mask ($7.95 for 2.6 oz.) is an exfoliating face mask designed for normal to oily skin. As the label states, it is supposed to give "skin a softened, smoothed, and radiant glow." Ingredients include agar agar seaweed, fuller's earth, kaolin, honey, glycerin, almond oil,...
What's your favorite type of beauty product? Why?

I love eyeshadow. I think it's because I feel I can do so many things with it!

Prescriptives' launched Exhilarating this summer, and I gotta tell you, that green packaging caught my eye. I'd say it's one of my favorite packagings I've seen for the summer thus far. I know some of you find it tacky, but I love it. It's so bright, vibrant, and SO summer. The Guava Exhilarating...

With the weather starting to feel like summer, I've been on the hunt for products to keep me moisturized and protected from the sun from head to toe. As to not to exclude hair, I tried out Davines' SU Sun Care line, which is a range of hair care products to help combat sun and summer fun...
Do you consider lipliner essential? Why/why not?
.
Not essential, but I see its usefulness! I'd just say I'm usually too lazy to bother with it. I am better about lip liner with really bold colors, though.

Can you tell it is fall preview day or what? ;)

Thanks to Pursebuzz for the question idea! :)
Fall 2009 celebrates the revolutionary spirit of a magnificent Parisian woman, a free spirit. It is a declaration of beauty just for you, the beginning of a new era.
"Max Factor, the 100-year-old American makeup brand, will be discontinued by early next year in the United States, where its market share is limited, owner Procter & Gamble (PG.N) said on Thursday."
It's interesting to see the move out of the U.S., where so my...
Best Hair Spray? What product wins this category?
Korres Face Primer ($28.00 for 1.01 oz. or $10.00 for 0.34 oz.) is exactly that. After my debacle Smashbox Photofinish Primer, I really wanted to steer clear of silicone-based primers. I couldn't tell you if that really causes breakouts for me...
