REVLON

ack! Im so glad you posted this, since Ive SO wanted to snag that mascara, haha. it looks sooo lush! =D

Ooh I have the Sassy Sangria too. I love the bit of brown tint because it looks good with my skin and it looks pretty over lipstick or alone.

Oh I wanted that Sugar Sugar stuff, but is it not that good? ='/

I splashed out on sugar sugar for my ball. It looked kind of cool at first but it was like when you eat a donut...

but yeh it wasnt really worth it for how much it was.

you're better off using that powder as a highlight for your eyes or your cheeks [Jade and Jess, thats a cheap word for illuminator! hint hint!].

I'm considering the bare it all stuff now >.<

I've got the diamond lust in Platinum Plaything. It's not worth the $25 or whatever it was. Not much colour. It's a little better if I sorta just press it on my lid, but it's still not too great.

so I found out that Revlon is one of the few drugstore makeup brands that don't test on animals and I'm thinking of re-stocking my essentials (liquid liner, pencil liner, brow definer, foundation, etc)

what are you girls' experiences with it? I was looking at the colorstay line.

I'm mostly interested in foundation.
I'm L'oreal W1 shade in True Match..
do you know if they go that pale? are they oily-skin/acne-prone skin friendly?
does it really last?
is it heavy?

yadda yadda

if you girls could help I'd luv ya foreva lol



ALSO

Cruelty-free hair products. Recommend?

I always found the L'oreal foundations too warm for my pale skin tone but I haven't looked at their foundations recently so maybe they have got better. Their staying power also wasn't the best.

Aveda hair care stuff is lovely, cruelty free and totally natural but quite expensive.

wouldnt this be product reviews?
you're asking about the product so it should go there instead. ill move it in a sec.

yes, revlon does go that pale. I use the custom creations, and its lovely. I also like their powders - best I've ever used. most are a fan of the colorstay, thinking that CC is a gimmick, but it isnt, and really is great. their foundations arent that heavy, but may be for a girl with normal skin. a light hand is all you need - you get great coverage with it.

their foundations are oil based too, but its a good thing.

you see, when you wash your face, you lose oils [even when you moisturize]. so wearing an oil based foundation isn't bad at all [I broke out MORE with an oil free one]. I have extremely oily/combo skin, and I didn't break out wearing this foundation unless it was that time of the month. then its just unavoidable. oh, and once, I washed my face with fucking baby oil gel, thinking, "its a substitute for an oil cleanser!"

not so.

I broke out in a rash.

two days I went without that fucking foundation, and my skin went unchanged.

I went to wear foundation to hide the rash after those few days, and my rash was TOTALLY gone in two days.

yes.

the brow definer is pure shit, though, so don't waste your cash. thier liners, however, are excellent and well worth the money. their mascaras also have decent reviews, but I'm too much of a bitch to leave maybelline. the mineral makeup is also worth a look.

hth.

I have their nail polishes and their bare it all lustrious lotion (LE) and I love them Jade has one of their foundations and I think she likes it.

I have their colour stay foundation or oily/cominbation skin. it has a great coverage but it tends to go shiny easily so you need a lot of powder.

Ooh thanks guys! I went to wal-mart and yeah, waaaay too dark. boo.

BUT I got the colorstay liquid liner and lash fantasy mascara and I love both of those

and I had got one of the nail polishes a while back and I loved that too.

and sorry Kiki, I wasn't sure which one to post in! oopsie. =S

oh and thanks for the heads up of the brow liner puff! Maybe I'll try avon's..
hopefully the blonde shade doesn't come out orange like a lot of them do though >_<

yeah, that brow stuff is good at first, then it turns to crap. you're much better off, haha.

ooh jayme what's that mascara like? does it thicken or lengthen or curl or what? I thought I liked lash fantasy but I realized it makes my lashes look kind of short =/

Thanks so much for all the info puff ^_^

I ended up getting an Inglot foundation. I like it a lot so far. I think I'll make a review for it.

make sure you post it in the Ingot reviews topic in this section - right now Im off to merge our two revlon topics, so there isnt too much fuss. :]

oh ok I was like wtf happened?? lmao now it makes sense. XD

haha, I forgot about Jamie's topic til you posted there, so Im glad that you did

hah cool ^_^

jsut wondering, with those 'custom creations' foundations, I'm likely to be the palest colour in the palest bottle- so wouldn't that run out first, elaving me with a tonnn of product that i really don't need?

that's the same thing I was thinking, seem like a waste of money to me.

yeah exactly, cos some of it is gonna get used and the rest is gonne be sitting there going rancid
