I love Thierry Mugler's fragrances, and I like to layer my fragrance so it lasts well, and I bought this body cream to complement the fragrance. Not only does it smell divine, it makes my skin so smooth and silky, I find it hard to believe it is my skin! The jar is lovely and it looks nice on my dresser, and I don't think it is very expensive compared to other complemetary fragrances from other designers. I thought I would only wear it for special occasions, but I adore it so much, I wear it more than I originally thought I would. Every one deserves a little treat, and this is one of the nicest things I have treated myself to in a long time!

This is a lovely melange of sugared violets, caramel, and white flowers. It is sweet and floral, and it is lovely. It fades nicely without going off, and the top notes are sweet, but not overly so. I normally don't like sweet scents, but the blend of fragrance are so well done, this is one of my favorites. It comes in a lovely bottle that is refillable, and I don't have to use more than two spritzes to get the effect I like. It wears well, and I receive compliments every time I wear it. I love Thierry Mugler's family of fragrances, and this is probably my most favorite of them all.

Urban Decay Surreal Skin Cream-to-Powder Foundation
Urban Decay Surreal Skin Cream-to-Powder Foundation
I have always prefered a powder foundation over a cream simply because my skin is so oily. Cream and liquid foundations have a tendancy to just slide off and pool in my pores and fines lines. I was able to try this out and I was intrigued by the application, coverage, and the final finish. This is not like any other cream to powder foundation I have ever used before. It applied very nicely, and I was able to build it where I need more coverage without it looking cakey or like spackle. I used Urban Decay's Primer Potion under it, and it blended beautifully and the colors are really natural looking, they aren;'t all some weird shade of peach or pink, they have a really neutral base that is really natural looking. I found it to wear very well which is saying a lot with how oily my skin is. After hours of wear, I did have to touch up with powder, but that is normal for me, but it didn't cake up or go all wonky as far as the finish. It may seem a little expensive, but you don't have to use a lot of product, and you aren't touching it up constantly. It dries to a really nice finish, had medium coverage and I didn't use concealer with it, it wasn't necessary. I will be using this product quite a bit, I am sold.

Urban Decay Complexion Primer Potion - Pore Perfecting
Urban Decay Complexion Primer Potion - Pore Perfecting
I am really oily and have tried so many foundation primers that I feel I am almost an expert, but have been mostly disappointed with the others that I have tried. I decided to give this a shot, and I was really suprised that it really seemed to make my large pores seem so much smaller, and my foundation didn't end up pooling into my pores after hours of wear. I didn't have to use a whole lot of product, it created a really smooth base for my foundation, and my foundation wore extremely well I didn't think it was very expensive compared to other primers, and I like the tube dispenser, you can control how much product you use better than with a pump. This is definitely going to be something I will keep using, my results were wonderful.

Urban Decay Complexion Primer Potion - Brightening
Urban Decay Complexion Primer Potion - Brightening
I have been looking for a great foundation primer that just brightens my complection up on days when I feel I am not looking so perkiky, and I finally found it. This doesn't have a ton of shimmer, it actually looks natural, but it gives your skin a look of lightness that you may not have due to too many late nights, this made my skin look well rested and healthy, even on the days when I was dragging. My cosmetics weren't dragging, nor did I look oily after a few hours of wear. I think my foundation actually applied better as well as lasted longer, I didn't find myself touching up throughout the day as often. I am really pleased with the effect and the wearability of this primer.

I have always prefered a gel type eye liner versus a liquid, and I was thrilled when Urban Decay introduced this line. I love the little package, and the brush is great for me, it really works well. I had no problem applying this, it dried quickly, much quicker than MAC Fliudline and it wore extremely well for me. I had no smudging or smearing after hours of wear. I am really oily, so I always use Urban Decay's Primer Potion, and perhaps that helped keep the Ink For Eyes in place all day. All in all, I love Ink For Eyes.

This mascar gave me a really great dramatic finish. It made my eyelashes incredibly long and lush, moreso than any other mascara I have ever used. It didn't clump when I applied it, the brush is great at distributing the product through your lashes. It didn't flake or smudge afetr hours of wear. it almost made it look like I had applied false eye lashes. It held a curl really well and the formula didn't weigh my lashes down. I removed really easy with eye makeup remover, no pulling on the tender eye area, and it comes in a wide array of colors to suit any mood or any look. I have paid double the price for a far less performing mascara, and a tube of this will always be in my train case, it rocks!

I love these little glosses. I am a total lip product junkie and I have every color they make, I adore them. They are a little sticky, but not too bad. They last pretty well for a gloss too. I love the minty taste and the high shine finish, I wear them alone or over my lip stick for a bit of intense shine. I don't mind the tube applicator, it works well for me, and they are really expensive for what you get. They are a great line of glosses.

These shadows are really pigmented and intense. They apply wonderfully, have a silky texture and build/blend excellently. You don't have to use a lot of product to get great color impact, they are remarkably gorgeous. The little compacts are darling and fit great in a makeup bag in a hand bag, they are like little works of art. If you like you makeup to make a statement, these little babies are perfect, they are addicting, I just can't get enough.

This is my absolute go to holy grail eyeshadow primer, it rocks! I am extremely oily, and this primer makes my shadow stay fresh for hours on end, it really does a great job. It has a tendancy to tunnel tho, so I take the plastic insert out of the tube to get every last bit out of the tube. it lasts a while, even with every day use, and it is worth every cent, it makes any eye shadow last great, and it applies nicely and if it can make eye shadow last on my oily skin, it will work for anyone!
