DIARY
OCTOBER 2002
10/17/02: This
is the message on Hard Candy's home page... (Looks like they're
revamping again. Hope it doesn't take another year again.)
10/14/02: Still
quiet Hard Candy wise... Anticipating some winter products. Hope they
release a fun Holiday line.
AUGUST 2002
08/16/02: Not
much new to report Hard Candy-wise... I have noticed that the company
blurbs are leaving out Dineh Mohajer's story and focusing on the
company being "all about L.A." etc... Interesting. Have heard from a
few site visitors... Thanks to you all for your kind words about the
site. I appreciate your taking out the time to write! And I love
answering product questions when I can, so keep 'em coming! :-)
JUNE 2002
06/22/02: Haven't ordered any new Hard Candy in awhile. I moved to a
new apartment in May and just haven't had the cash to spare since all
of it has been going into decorating the new apartment. The two things
that I most want to try are the Liquid fragrance and Dillusional eye
quad. If anyone out there has tried either,
let me know!
MARCH 2002
03/26/02: Ordered the new nail polish shades from Sephora. Just knew I
wouldn't be able to live without adding the new shades to the
collection... ;-)
 03/13/02:
Hard Candy finally released their fragrance. It is called "Liquid" and
looks promising... They also released 3 new nail polish shades. I'm
tempted to buy them to add to my collection... but I was a little
disappointed at the chipping problem I've encountered with the polish
I've bought in their new bottles. Some others have said that HC polish
has chipped all along, but I hadn't had a problem with that until
recently. I might end up buying them anyway. I know I'll regret it
later when they aren't available. They also released their version of
the ubiquitous "pen" lip color. The shades match the polish... Flash,
Flicker, and Mirage. And finally, they have unveiled a new eye shadow
quad called Dillusional. The colors look very iridescent in light
shades. I'm tempted to buy that too. Ah heck, who am I kidding? I want
the entire spring line! >:-)
FEBRUARY 2002
 02/01/02: Wow, its been a few
months since I've updated this section... Ummmmm... Not much new as
far as Hard Candy purchases. I have heard through the grapevine that
Hard Candy will be releasing a fragrance in the future. I wonder what
it will smell like? Stay tuned. :-) Hard Candy posted their
new look a few months ago. The
site looks cute. Lots of green... I hope they keep up with the
updates.
OCTOBER
2001
10/25/01: Am totally dying to
buy one of the new Palm Palettes... Am leaning towards Girlie because
I like browns. Tempted to get both -- but don't want to be greedy...
>:-) The mini nail teasers are also calling my name. The only problem
is that I have the big versions of almost all of them. Seems silly to
buy duplicates. But, they're soooooo darn cute!
AUGUST
2001
08/21/01: Just ordered more
crap from Sephora. I'm an addict -- what can I say? I ordered a
Plush Glitter Eye Pencil and Glitter Dip Lipstick in Stop!. While I
was already there spending my dough, I picked up an Urban Decay
Sparkler Pen in Litter and some Sephora Collection Loose Glitter in
Violet #9.
08/19/01: Just ordered some HC
stuff from Sephora... Glitter Mascara in Freeze, Glitter Dip
Lipstick in Sonic, and Sonic Sparkle Dust in Plush. Also, some
Jezebel lipstick from Urban Decay. Tried another one of the new nail
polish shades -- Skimpy...
-
Skimpy -
A
white shade that looks almost lilac in some light. Appears to
have silver glitter in it in the bottle, but you can't see the
glitter when the polish is applied. A nice subtle shade.
Reminiscent of Urban Decay's Flourescent. Cute on toes in
particular.
08/09/01: I'm
looking forward to trying the new Sonic Glitters. I've been addicted
to glittery eye makeup for a long time. I have way too much as it is
though...
08/09/01: My review of the
first batch of "NEW" nail polish colors...
- Erogenous
- A
dark burgundy metallic shade. Very nice. Sophisticated. Will be
perfect for Fall.
- Anonymous
- Goes
on as a very pretty salmon shade. Looks lighter on than in the
bottle. I LOVE this shade. My favorite of the lot.
- After Hours
- Looks
like red glitter in the bottle. Is more fuchsia on unless you
coat like 4-5 layers. Pretty.
- Solar
- A
nice subtle yellowish gold shade. Very wearable (unlike many
yellowish nail polishes).
- Sell Out
- A
gorgeous teal green with gold sparkles. Very unusual. Very rock
star. LOVE it and received many compliments the day I wore it to
work.
08/08/01 - Hard Candy.com is
soon going to have a new look! I went to the id society web site and
it looks like there new site will be very green.
JULY 2001
 07/19/01: Received the new nail polish!
The colors are gorgeous. Many are sparkly and/or iridescent. I can't
wait to dig in and try them all. The rubber rings now include a
little "gem" embedded in the front of them. Trés cute.
Four of them arrived broken :( so I had to reorder those and send
the broken ones back. One shade, Piglet, wasn't available at Sephora.com
so I had to order it from Macys.com
instead.
07/12/01: Bought all of the new
nail polish shades that were available from Sephora.com.
Spent tons and tons of money like the nailpolish-aholic that I am.
JUNE 2001
 06/02/01:
Bought some HC goodies from Sephora. I was jonesing to try the
eyeshadow loners -- so I ordered 4 of them... Love Child (light
brown), Groove (shimmy purple), Pink Eye (pink), and a mauve colored
one whose name escapes me at the moment. They're great. The Quads
are a tad more convenient -- but the loners are good for when you
only want to wear one color at a time and they're small and
wonderfully portable!
MAY 2001
 05/16/01 - Hard Candy has updated their official
site to include their newest Spring/Summer
2001 products. They also have a new contest going on in
conjunction with Motorola to win a phone with special Hard Candy

APRIL 2001
04/19/01: Just received my new
goodies from Sephora... Roller Girl in "Glow" and the
Sonic Stick glitter. Both are trés cute! Love em... Want more and
more and more and more...
04/15/01: New stuff at Sephora.com
includes...
Hard Candy Super Shine Lip
Gloss ($12) - These are cool... I have a couple of them. They are
gooey, but do give your kisser a nice shine. Shades include:
Babydoll, Fresh, Nylon, Oxy, Pop, & Sweetie. All shades
mentioned except Oxy & Pop are new. And for anyone who cares,
these are Leann Rimes favorite lip glosses. She was quoted in a
magazine saying, "I've just got to have my Candy!"
Roller
Girl ($18) - Shake, Rattle and Shimmer! Give face an all over
glittery luster - go for pink (Glow), or bronze (Vegas). This liquid
face shimmer goes on smooth thanks to the easy-to-apply roller ball
bottle. I just ordered Glow. I think it will be cute to wear this
summer. I also ordered the Sonic Stick. I had been wanting to get it
for awhile and its always been sold out.
Hard
Candy Lip Gloss Cube Set ($24) - Kit includes four glistening
shades Haze (metallic purple), Blur (metallic silvery-white), Icky
(metallic white-peach), and Angel (metallic beige-gold) - that taste
and smell like cake batter. This is a great deal considering that
one cube costs $12 bucks. You get 4 for the price of 2.
Pixie,
Platinum & Sonic Techno Glitter Hair Spray ($15) - Still
worry they'll make me look like I have dandruff. If anyone out there
has tried it... let me know! ;-)
04/14/01:
Since Nov. 2000, I have purchased some new nail polish colors. They
are: Love Child, Icky, Girlie, & Stop. All are sparkly polishes
infused with microglitter. Stop is red, Girlie is green, Love Child
is pale brown, and Icky is mauve-ish pink. All are very gorgeous and
will be perfect shades to go with this seasons sandals on your toes
(and of course on your fingernails.)
NOVEMBER 2000
11/04/00 - Hard
Candy's official web site has finally launched! Kick it at http://www.hardcandy.com/ to
