I regretted the Amuse palette. I did a review on my blog so here's the entry

:

"So....... at first glance, the box looked horribly "cheap". The palette itself "looked" promising with so many colors and a huge mirror but unfortunately, it was a major disappointment. In some other blogger's review, this palette was so greatly raved about but after trying it out myself, I find that the quality of the shadows are similar or even worse than my China brand eyeshadow that I get for 5 Ringgit. There are only a few colors that were heavily pigmented but most of them especially the lighter colors just fell flat. The blushers are very powdery-looking. I don't like them either. The applicators, I felt like throwing them at someone.
However, for the price, I guess you can't expect much. On the plus side, it is quite nice to have a variety of colors and the color pay-off is rather acceptable when the shadows are used wet. But I definitely regret buying this palette anyways and extremely disappointed because it received a good review.

My Rating: 2/5"
Here's a closer look and the swatches

Thanks soooo much for reviewing it!! I've been on the fence for a few weeks about getting it. I don't think I will. I'll save my money for MAC.

you're welcome!! yes! you should definitely save for mac. a budget option would be like buying mineral pigments, press them into palettes and you'll get quality that is 20 times better! this palette is better left for like Christmas gifts for nieces and such

Review from my blog:

"Ugh. It's sticky and not moisturizing at all. The most basic thing to expect from a lip balm and this little pot can't provide it. Smells yummy though and not too heavily scented."

It's just pointless for a lip balm

I was allergic to it cuz it contained beeswax so I gave it to a friend. according to her it is quite moisturizing but it has a very poor lasting power. only lasts a few minutes. she uses it on her dry elbows though. lol

at least vaseline was moisturizing. this was just... ugh!
 
I was interested in how you like the 'Starry Jojoba Oil Lip Therapy'. I was thinking over which Starry lipgloss/lipcare products to get on Cherryculture. Can you advise me which ones I should get judging by the swatch, color, consistency, stickiness etc. Thanks!
