Shine- and texture-free. Available in a choice of two shades for use on light to medium skin tones.</p>
<p><strong><em>My Thoughts:</em></strong></p>
<p>This is a product everyone must have. It does what it claims to do: erases lips. No more using foundation or concealer to minimize the natural color of your lips. By &#8220;erasing&#8221; your natural lip color, it allows for lipgloss or lipstick to show up true to color. Finally! No more wondering whether the lipcolor you just bought will appear the same on your lips. Also, if you want that perfect nude lip color, all you have to do is apply Lip Erase and some clear gloss and you&#8217;ve got the perfect nude lip color. Lip erase is a balm-like texture that can be a tad bit drying, but that problem can easily be solved by exfoliating and moisturizing beforehand. It is a MAC Pro product so you can only get it off the MAC Pro site if you have their card. If you don&#8217;t have their card, you can still get it by visiting a MAC Pro store. It is available in two colors: Dim and Pale. I suggest you get it in &#8220;Dim&#8221; unless you are really truly pale then get it in &#8220;Pale.&#8221;</p>

<p><strong><em>My Thoughts:</em></strong></p>
<p>MAC lipsticks are one of my favorite lipsticks. Not only do they carry a wide range of colors, but MAC also carries a range of textures. The lipsticks are pigmented but don&#8217;t feel heavy. They glide on so smooth and depending on the texture can be moisturizing too.</p>

Comes in a small, stylish rectangular makeup bag of polished silvery-pewter vinyl, the zip adorned with a round bead and grosgrain ribbon detail. Limited edition.</p>
<p><strong><em>My Thoughts:</em></strong></p>
<p>I love pink lip color. The lipstick, <em>Dream</em>, is a glaze lipstick. The color is more of a sheer, color and it provides a sheen/shine. It reminds me of dark, dusty rose color. <em>Baby Sparks</em> Dazzleglass has a lot of sparkle. A lot. It certainly gave my lips a lot of &#8220;bling&#8221; and gave the illusion of fuller lips. I love the sheer pink color. It&#8217;s perfect for all year round use. <em>Dervish</em> lip pencil is a pink mauve color that gave my lips a perk of color. It&#8217;s like a YLBB (Your Lips But Better) color. Out of the 2 lip bags, this is the one I got, because this is goes perfectly with a smoky eye.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-7817" title="mac-magic-mirth-and-mischief-house-of-mirth-deep-lip1" src="http://www.audreydao.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/mac-magic-mirth-and-mischief-house-of-mirth-deep-lip1.jpg" alt="mac-magic-mirth-and-mischief-house-of-mirth-deep-lip1" width="300" height="288" /> <a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/spp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CAT1905&amp;PRODUCT_ID=6696">MAC Magic, Mirth, and Mischief </a><span><a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/spp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CAT1905&amp;PRODUCT_ID=6696">House of Mirth Deep Lip Bag</a> ($36) </span>Deep and mirthfully rich, this lip kit features Fantasia Lipstick, Cedar Lip Pencil and Get Rich Quick Dazzleglass. Comes in a small, stylish rectangular makeup bag of polished silvery-pewter vinyl, the zip adorned with a round bead and grosgrain ribbon detail. Limited edition.</p>
<p><em><strong>My Thoughts:</strong></em></p>
<p>I actually didn&#8217;t get this because I tend to shy away from dark lip colors. I&#8217;m not bold enough to rock dark lips even though I want to. When I tried it, it wasn&#8217;t as dark as I expected. <em>Fantasia</em>, the lipstick,  was a deep rosy color. I felt this lipstick was more pigmented and not as sheer as the lipstick in the <em>Put a Spell On You Pink Lip Bag</em>. If I wasn&#8217;t so scared of dark lip colors, I would have gotten this too.</p>

<p><em><strong>My Thoughts:</strong></em></p>
<p>For both the lip kits, the lip colors only gave a hint of color to my lips. They are rather sheer. With that being said, I only picked up the Possessed By Pink Lip Kit. Even though it appears dark, out of the 2 lips kits, this one actually showed up on my pigmented lips. Also because the lipcolors are pretty sheer, it didn&#8217;t show up dark on my lips at all. Perfect for me! The Heavnely Dish Neutral Lip Kit looks very pretty in person, but on my lips it was almost invisible. Possessed By Pink Lip Kit will be a great item to toss into my bag for traveling or when I&#8217;m in rush.</p>

The luxuriously creamy formula nourishes and protects lips with Vitamins A, C, and E. Hyaluronic Spheres (found naturally in the body) are added to stimulate cellular function, prevent dehydration, and fill-in lines and wrinkles—now, how many Lipsticks can do that?! The teardrop-shape bullet (etched with an Urban Decay logo) is infused with a decadent crème caramel scent and flavor. Yum.</p>
<p>Not your standard Lipstick case, we added more glamour and an Urban twist: Urban Decay Lipstick tubes, made from weighty, purple metal, are pierced with a mini gunmetal dagger. The clear cap is decorated inside and out with two-toned purple flourishes. The effect is multidimensional, and incredibly luxe. Ooh la la.</p>
<p><strong><em>My Thoughts:</em></strong></p>
<p>This is a really smooth and creamy lipstick. I love it so much! There is a such a wide range of shades that you will surely find one that suits you. The lipstick is long lasting and moisturizing too. I have to admit that my favorite thing about the Urban Decay lipstick is the packaging. On the lipstick itself is the Urban Decay logo etched in. How cool! The dagger at the bottom of the case is a love/hate thing. It&#8217;s eye catchy but can get in the way. Overall, Urban Decay lipsticks are one of my favorites!</p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">I really like these lip pencils. I love how I don&#8217;t have to pick a lipliner to match my lipcolor or vice versa. It&#8217;s all figured out for you. I love that it is a fat pencil. It&#8217;s so much easier and faster to color in my lips. The lasting power is pretty strong too. The pencil goes on creamy and smooth. A definite recommendation to everyone.<br />

<p><em><strong>My Thoughts:</strong></em></p>
<p>I have this lipstick in Skinny Dip and I L-O-V-E it! It is my favorite lipstick. It is so creamy and smooth. Does not dry out your lips at all. It does the opposite. It moisturizes. I use this with <a href="http://www.audreydao.com/2009/03/12/benefit-the-gloss/">Benefit The Gloss</a> in Kiss Me. This color combo makes for a great dusty rose lip color.</p>

<p><em><strong>My Thoughts:</strong></em></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Wicked Lovely Doubletake Lip Color comes in one color, Gossamer. It is a light pink lip color. It&#8217;s a perfect match for a smokey eye look. Be sure to moisturize and buff your lips before using the doubletake lip color because it can accentuate dryness. I don&#8217;t use this when I&#8217;m tan because it can make me look a little washed-out since it is a light pink color. If I do use this when I am tanned, I make sure to use a lip gloss with a little color to bring color to my lips.<br />

Translucent red pigment and dual-optimizing powder ensure lip color stays true, vivid and luminous under any light conditions. Satin smooth pearl ultra fine pigments for luster and superb smoothness. Super hydro-wrap vitalizing DE<strong> </strong> creates a protective moisture veil to improve condition and texture over time for an ideal finish. There are 20 colors to choose from.</p>
<p><em><strong>My Thoughts:</strong></em></p>
<p>I love this lipstick! It is moisturizing and pigmented. I have this in &#8220;Baby&#8221; a pink, peachy, beige lipcolor. It&#8217;s a great color for spring. It&#8217;s also perfect for the natural, everyday look. Perfect Rouge is light-weight and semi-matte. To make it long-lasting, I use <a href="http://www.audreydao.com/2009/03/12/shiseido-the-smoothing-lip-pencil/">Shiseido Smoothing Lip Pencil</a> underneath.</p>
