    Tried Estee Lauder TURBO Mascara?

    Hi, Did anyone tried this before? I'm in debate whether to get it or not. I normally do not wear mascara because everytime I curl my lash my contacts fall out (the rigid type). I've been told that this mascara does not require curler. The Bay and Sears does not accept returns of used...

    Deep Throat vs. Super Orgasm?

    I know from the reviews and swatches that Super Orgasm is pinker, but wouldn't that makes it the same as Deep Throat? I also own Armani Sheer Blush #2 and its pretty similar to the original Orgasm. Just wondering about the differences here

    Orange Peachy Blush?

    I'm looking for a blush that's more of an orange peach than pink peach. I've tried NARS Gina and it makes my face look yellow.

    I recently just bought AAE off a nice lady here, and absolutely love it! I read the reviews on MUA and people says ho loves AAE should love Alhambra as well, however my MA says this duo is sold out everwhere in Canada.

    Age Old Question: 168 vs. 169

    I've done some researches on this topic and found out most people recommanded 169 because its limited. I don't know about the Icon collection one, but the one that MAC just released again is made in China, which I'm a bit afraid of. I like the color of the bristles for two reason, one being its...

    Have they faked 134?

    I just sold my 150 since I felt its a bit too stiff for my skin especially compared to BB face blender. I went to the counter today and really loves the texture of 134, but no one is selling it here. I know I shouldn't be but I'm thinking about eBay... There are only 2 134 on eBay and they are...

    Anyone tried Hakuho-do Brushes before?

    Hakuho-do I've heard so many great things about their brushes. I'm pretty sure they are the best brush maker in Japan. I think MAC also ask them to make brushes as well. The thing is, the only counter they have outside of Japan is at Beverly Hills and nowhere else, to try their brushes I must...
