Avon Wash-Off Waterproof Mascara
03/26/11 at 08:41PM
Yes, it's more waterproof than the average mascara, and it's easier to wash off than your typical waterproof mascara. But the brush and formula aren't really anything special. It is affordable, and does live up to it's claims, but it's just alright o...
L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Original Washable Bold Eye Mascara
03/26/11 at 08:39PM
It's affordable, has a reasonable amount of packaging (I hate mascara tubes that are unnecessarily large and bulky), and adds length and volume. Doesn't smudge on me, and doesn't clump. I love the big bristle brush too. This stuff is great!
M.A.C. Lipstick

It's the only one I buy. I love the vanilla scent, the reasonable price, the wide array of colors and finishes. There's a decent length of wear, but they're not "long lasting." My only complaint is that they can be a bit drying.
L'Oreal Paris Colour Juice Sheer Juicy Lip Gloss
03/26/11 at 08:34PM
Just the right amount of pigment, scented but not too strongly, not too slick and not too tacky, and reasonably priced. There are plenty of colors to choose from as well. The applicator is just okay (round, when I'd prefer a slanted tip), but I reall...
Buxom Full-On Plumping Lip Polish Gloss
03/26/11 at 08:16PM
I love the color options, the cute packaging, the applicator, the variety of finishes (glitter, milky, sheer, pigmented). The price is okay, but there isn't a whole lot of product in that thick plastic tube. The dealbreaker for me is the scent/tingle...
Avon GLAZEWEAR Lip Gloss
03/26/11 at 08:13PM
PROS: Affordable. An okay formula (not too sticky or too thin). Okay packaging. CONS: Only available through Avon.com or a representative. Very little shine or pigmentation. Vanilla scent is very artificial/plastic smelling.
Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant
03/26/11 at 07:31PM
This stuff is great but CRAZY expensive! A friend of mine gave me a bit to try out, and it was nicely exfoliating. Did the job without being scratchy. Good quality and effective. However, it's so expensive, and I've used some baking soda as exfoliant...
Clinique City Stick SPF 15
03/26/11 at 07:28PM
I love this product--great consistency, great coverage and I like that it has SPF. It's really better as a concealer because it'd be pretty heavy to put it all over your face (although I put it on a LOT of my face, because I have a lot of acne and sc...
Stila Eye Shadow Pan
03/26/11 at 07:11PM
I own probably a dozen Stila shadows. Some of the matte colors are a little chalky. The shimmery colors are gorgeous (I especially love Diamond Lil) and super smooth in texture, but the colors get muddy when you try to blend them and there is a bit o...
Benefit BADgal Lash
03/26/11 at 06:59PM
The first time I used this mascara was when my friend and I got makeovers at Sephora. Both of us loved how long and lush it made our lashes look--we'd never seen such amazing results! She bought a tube, I held off. Sadly, the mascara smudged under ou...
