Ok..so I finally got my foundation and tried it out. I cant vote and I didnt vote yet so I think I may have clicked the 1 star rating by accident once upon a frozen browser...

Review of Manic Panic Foundation
I got the white.

Face prep:
WASH -
Biore Pore minimizing foaming face wash
HYDRATE-
Jason's Aloe Gel 98% pure - for face's moisture
MAKEUPS-
~CG Foundation - Outlast Liquid makeup (Ivory 605) - this is neat stuff. Primer on one side and foundation on the other
~ALMAY Bright Eyes, Eye Base + Concealer (105 Light )
~Manic Panic Foundation (white)
~CG (covergirl) Clean Pressed powder (105 Ivory)

I used the two foundations for the first time and am really pleased. The CG's primer makes your entire face feel extra smooth and lets the make-up layers glide on without puddling all in one area or not spreading smoothly. I finger tapped on the CG ivory foundation where you would put blush.Did the almay concealer on the entire eye socket. (this product helps rid puff and dark circles visually) And then finally I put the manic panic on the back of my hand to use as a palate and started tapping it all over. Application starting under my eyes directly for highlight bonus and to avoid any "pooled" white look in one area. I moistened my hands and patted around to finish it off smoothly to set it with the CG powder. It didn't look like club wear or anything. It actually just looked absolutely right instead of somewhat too yellow.

Slept in it and I didn't break out but for one teensy pore clog that washed away and was gone by afternoon


I would give it 5 stars if I didnt feel dry under the eye from it the next day. But that may have been due to my eyeliner removal that I did with soap and water instead of oil like I should of. Nothing extreme. The aloe fixed it.

I think if you are pale or liked those white 70's under eye cream concealer sticks you should give it a try. Its thicker than most liquids and has a little spatula attached at the cap to take it from the bottle. Bottle is glass,screws shut type.

Okay, I had a slight problem earlier with the poll - it wasn't clearing correctly with each product change, to where if you voted previously, it would not let you vote on the new product. Marka has graciously fixed it so that everybody can vote when the product gets changed.

Up this time for review is the Lancome Definicils Mascara that retails approximately $20.

To me Definicils Mascara is the worst mascara I have ever used. It did nothing for my lashes. I've used cheaper brands like Loreal that I liked MUCH better. I want a mascara that curls my lashes and this one didn't do that.

Lancome Definicils Mascara - Its just ok. It had more of a natural look to me. I think its perfect if you like the look of a naked face. My eyes are so dark brown they are almost black so I prefer a heavy thick mascara. The one thing that was a total plus is that it didn't burn my eyes or make my skin red. Slight amount of flaking. Not raccoon level but I always brush it off with a brush+powder. Its a good black mascara for light eyes.

Up for review is the Deep Sea Facial Mask by Alba Botanica. This product boasts it Chinese and green clay mixture combined with Shea Butter, Chamomille, and a "marine complex" that works together to draw the oils and other impurities out of your facial pores. What do you think about this product?

If you feel another product is superior, name and explain.
