Silky, smooth, sultry eyes - all day long.

Advantages: Rich, highly pigmented colours. Very well tolerated.
Disadvantages: None.

...I absolutely adore Helena Rubinstein makeup, and this is no exception. These eye pencils come in several different colours (I have the black, brown, and violet), and they have just come up with a new "shimmering" line. It has the appearence of a normal eye pencil, with golden embossed HR logo and a really nice golden metal capsule on top. Really classy and expensive looking. The texture of both the black and brown pencils is very, very rich. It glides on, leaving loads of colour on. Very silky indeed - not at all like some other pencils that pull and irritate your skin. The violet is not quite so rich and "thick looking", and I believe that has to do with the colour - some colours are just easier to handle, I suppose. Still, it's the best violet pencil I've ever tried: the colour is vibrant and really beautiful. I use these...

Review of Helena Rubinstein Silky Eyes

Don't let the colour fade

Advantages: Smooth, long-lasting, nice glimmer to the colour
Disadvantages: Narrow range of colours, colour can fade if tube is left in the sun, expensive

...no. of shades available: 6 --What does the promo say?-- "Dazzling Shine and Dewy Moisture. Inspired by the fascinating beauty of music hall showgirls dancing under the cabaret spotlights, Helena Rubinstein creates a new staging for your lips. A mesmerizing show of sparkles and glitter for truly dazzling lips." --Packaging-- Lovely to look at - the clear plastic bottle that the gloss comes in is quite voluptously shaped, as is the lid (when I was given mine the lids were a gold-effect colour; they appear to have now changed this to silver). The applicator provided is a synthetic brush rather than being a sponge, which I must admit I prefer. There is no information given on the bottle itself, with the exception of the Helena Rubinstein logo on the top of the lid and the shade colour on the bottom of the bottle. --Application...

Review of Helena Rubinstein Stellars Gloss No. 1 Star Rosebud

Prodigy return

Advantages: really loud will blow the house down!
Disadvantages: far from the greatness of the early techno, house days of the prodigy.

...The Prodigy is one of Britains biggest electronic acts, they began with a 10 track demo wich was put together by Liam Howlett on a sequencer keyboard, this was then released way back in 1991. Since then they went on to release the techno - rave orientated albums The Prodigy Experience (1992) ,Music For The Jilted Generation (1994) and The Fat Of The Land (1997) which had more of an electronica and dance feeling to it. Finally in 2004 they then released their new album Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned which fans had been waiting for a long time and as with nearly all of their previous albums this one also represents a distinct stage in Prodigy's musical develepmont. Unlike their early albums which were more techno and rave and The Fat Of The Land which was more big beat and electronica and dance, Always Outnumbered, Never...

Review of Always Outnumbered Never Outgunned - Prodigy (The)

More of the Prodigy, but nothing new

Advantages: It's the Prodigy. Can be danced to. Upbeat feel.
Disadvantages: A little predictable. Too many weak tracks.

...The Prodigy are a band that have been famous since the early 90's particularly with the release of their singles 'Charly' and 'Everybody in the Place'. Since then, a number of albums have been released, each one pushing the envelope a little further and each one having at least a couple of very strong tracks in them. Their latest offering is 'Invaders must Die'. From the lead track, taking the same title as the album, this album sounds very much the same as older albums. There is nothing pushing new envelopes here. Invaders must Die: This track has a catchy tune to it, but it is quite repetative and predictable. It is probably still one of the better songs on the album, however. A deep bass line and a Prodigy feeling with some of the synth sounds coming straight from older tracks. Omen: This has been released as a single and is...

Review of Invaders Must Die - Prodigy (The)

The Prodigy Experience is an awesome Experience !

Advantages: Breakbeat at it's best !
Disadvantages: Not what The Prodigy are releasing current day, if you are into them now

...THE PRODIGY "EXPERIENCE" CD - Buy it for no more than £6.99 Liam Howlett, the brains behind The Prodigy (see my review of "Music for the Jilted Generation" for more in depth detail regarding the band), originally wanted to write this album almost as a concept album, similar to what Pink Floyd did with "Echoes" (A fantastic album in it's own genre). Hence, I would imagine, the title "Experience" ... was to be an Experience or representation of the rave scene at the time, which was still developing from it's origins of acid house in the mid 80's into various branches of what was later termed as "dance music". Rave music, as a term, later became more synonymous with a branch of dance music, most notably called "old skool" today. However, everything within the dance music scene, whether it be drum & bass, hardcore, garage, funky...

Review of Invaders Must Die - Prodigy (The)

Experience The Prodigy Experience

Advantages: Original, innovative, classic Prodigy
Disadvantages: Some tracks are a little lengthy with much of the same stuff

...This was the debut album of The Prodigy that was released in 1992 by XL Recordings. The album is truly the groups most innovative work and many of the tracks have themes running through them that are rather random, yet kinda humerous and remind some of old adverts (Charlie - "Charlie says always tell your Mummy before going off somewhere"). The tracks can be viewed as similar in places, but on the whole they all have a distinct difference and I find that the The Prodigy's use of unfamiliar sounds within their tracks does give each one a distinctive memory that you will instantly associate with. I think that you will notice similar themes running through their second album - Music for the Jilted Generation - but there are sets of very different music from here on out for the Prodigy. The second album features swearing, thats not...

The Prodigy Experience - My review, please read!

Advantages: ENDLESS
Disadvantages: NONE

...Experience by The Prodigy - one of the best albums ever! I first bought this album when I was about 10 years old in the 90's. This is The Prodigy's first ever album in the dawining of the 'rave' era in the 1990's. Containing absloute classics such as 'Out Of Space', 'Everybody's In The Place' , 'Charlie' and much more. I cannot praise this album enough, it is the catalyst that got me into electronic music. All of thetracks on it are geniously produced with plenty variation. In my opinion this album defines rave music and countless producers have been influenced by this. This album covers so many genres of music including rave, techno, jungle, dub, raggae. I myself as a techno producer and DJ frequently play tracks from this in my techno mixes including techno mix cd's and techno club mixes also. If you have an interest in...

Review of Experience - Prodigy (The)

A welcome return for the Prodigy

Advantages: More dance orientated than fat of the land
Disadvantages: May not appeal to those not usually Prodigy fans

...September 2004 - Laim Howlett and co make a welcome return to British music with quite possibly their most anticapated album yet. "Always outnumbered, never outguned" has been 7 years in the making. Following the highly popular Fat of the Land was never going to be easy, especially as the group had developed a much more varied fan base, due to the strong rock influences and continual dance/electonic style, Fat of the land was bought by the most Hardcore Cluber, as well as the most hardened rock fans. Liam Howlett has taken theProdigy back to their dance roots with AONO. There is a strong hip hop feel throughout. The breakbeats are still there that the Prodigy are so known for, but there is a very tough and almost dark feel to the whole album. The stand out track on the album is track number 2, "girls". Receiving a great deal...

Review of Always Outnumbered Never Outgunned - Prodigy (The)

Major deficiencies in Prodigy's latest effort.

Advantages: If you're a fan - you MIGHT like this.
Disadvantages: Only one good track in my opinion. Lacking that special something that the previous albums had.

...I bought this album in Hong Kong and listened to it in my hotel room. I actually switched off 10 minutes later. It did my head in. This for me - is the most disappointing album of the year so far. I have since listened to the whole album twice from start to finish and would now consider it fair to review the album. I have all of The Prodigy's previous albums - and The Fat Of The Land was truly exceptional stuff - so many classic songs on one album. The fact is - is that on their latest album - there are no classics, there's nothing here that I'm going to come back to in 5 years. Whereas 5 years on from Fat On The Land and it is still on my 'Best Of' compilations and son my iPod for when I go running etc... with this though - it's all just a blur. The first problem is the content - there's nothing here that's memorable...
