Here are all my reviews:

i love this lip gloss - it's appropriately described as "tasty lip color". i use "frozen blackberry" and it's one of the darker shades for a little more hint of supershiny color - sweet berry taste but not sickeningly sweet or supersticky. and lasts pretty long considering it's a gloss!

the smaller brush takes some effort to get used to - i get it, you're supposed to be able to reach those hard-to-reach lashes but in doing so, you also end up with clumps of mascara here and there (despite wiping the brush before each use). once you actually get the mascara on your lashes and eliminate the clumps, it's pretty impressive - lashes do look longer and there's a noticible lift to open your eyes up. i just wish the application wasn't such a pain! (but it hurts to be cute, right? no one said it would be easy...)

these super soft wipes make it super fast and easy to remove makeup before you hit the sack...thoroughly and easily removes all traces, even eye makeup. the wipe itself is slightly thinner than other wipes out there and my super-sensitive skin feels a little dry after using them...and the real reason i wanted to try these out is because of a testimonial i read in lucky - a woman swore that these removed her blackheads! um...i haven't seen THAT drastic an improvement yet but i'll keep trying...

i LOVE these make-up remover wipes. my night-time routine is nowhere near as thorough (and time-consuming) as my morning routine - at the end of the day, i just want to quickly clean my face and jump into bed. these wipes are the perfect solution - quickly removes all makeup (even stubborn mascara) thoroughly but best of all, it doesn't leave my skin dry and tight like all the other wipes. super for sensitive skin!

doesn't lather as much as i like, doesn't seem to smooth away frizzies and fly-aways as much as other anti-frizz shampoos. okay scent. i'd rather use other drugstore brands out there...

i've been using this liquid eyeliner forever! i prefer the fine brush tip (e.g. to a marker-like felt tip) because it allows me to create a line as thin or as thick/dramatic as i want. it does require some steady hands! but once on, it wears really well - no flaking or fading. perfect for a dramatic cat-eye!

love this creme - smooths away the frizzy flyaways that resist my blowdryer, and after a day out in the sf fog, a little bit touches up my hair and i'm ready for an evening out w/o spending a lot of time restyling.

super shiny but not sticky and a bit more color than your usual gloss. nice sweet scent/taste. a bit pricier than i usually spend on gloss or lipstick but a little goes a long way...

i use this blush in "fetish" which is a nice neutral rose shade; it has a slight shimmery sheen that makes your cheeks glow! application does require a light touch - don't overdo it!

i absolutely love LOVE LOVE this mascara - my favorite, even over pricier department store brands. i have long but very straight lashes and have never got the hang of using an eyelash curler. max factor manages to work miracles on my lashes with a very visibly noticable difference in lift, w/o clumping or flaking. i also like that this mascara, compared to other curling mascaras, manages to keep my lashes relatively soft and not overly stiff. unfortunately, not many places in the sf bay seem to carry this product - luckily i found it at ulta!
