I had high hopes when I received a sample of this product but i'm glad I didn't end up having to buy any because it was a disappointment. The color combos are great but the shadow is far too creamy. The shade in step 1 didn't even show up on my lids because it blended SO much, and the second shade didn't smudge the way you need for a smoky eye. Plus the tip is too fat to line my upper lashes so instead it looked messy. I'll stick with my powder shadows for a smoky eye because this just didn't work for me at all. I received this product as a BzzAgent and i'm so glad I didn't have to pay for it otherwise I would definitely be disappointed having spent money on it.

I think i've probably tried every lip gloss on the market and i've been very happy with my CoverGirl Shine Blast gloss! The color is rich without being too heavy, and even as the shine wears off, some color remains on my lips like a stain which I really like. The gloss isn't heavy or sticky and goes on nice and smooth. They could use a few more shades, but other than that I was pleasantly surprised by the product. I was lucky enough to receive this as a sample because I am a BzzAgent but i'm excited to go out and buy some other colors soon!

I didn't really get any benefit from this product that I can't get from any other styling cream out there. It did tame my frizz fairly well, but I found it to be a bit sticky and didn't leave my hair feeling natural or clean. I did find you don't need a lot so you get a good amount for the price, but I didn't like the way my hair felt so I don't think i'll be using this again.

I was excited when I saw that Loreal was making a mascara similar to the Givenchy version with the same type of brush, and at a much lower price, I was eager to try it out. Unfortunately it hasn't lived up to the hype for me. It lengthened just fine, but it did absolutely nothing to give me any volume and it clumps like crazy. I have to constantly go over it with a clean mascara wand to get rid of the clumps, and after that i'm left with spiky stuck together lashes. I have found if I go over it with my old mascara for a second coat, I am left with voluminous lashes at that point, but who wants to buy two products all the time? It also flakes off halfway through the day and I get those annoying little flecks of mascara under my eyes. Its a nice try but I won't be buying this one again.

I love these things but they aren't easy to find! They stay in much easier than the traditional style and they seem to stay put much better. Plus since they are curved to your head, they disappear into your hair so you don't really notice them. If only more stores sold them!

L'Oreal Paris Extra-Volume Hydra Collagen Plumping Mascara
A great alternative to department store brands!
I'm a bit of a mascara junkie so I love to try out the newest mascaras, forever looking for the perfect one. While this one isn't perfect, its definitely worth the money. I get better volume with this mascara in one sweep than in multiple sweeps with other brands. The brush is a bit on the large side so it takes a little getting used to, and if you have really small eyes it might be hard to work with but I didn't have a problem. It also CAN clump, but i've noticed if you swipe the mascara on a tissue before applying it, it pretty much clears up that problem. I'm still on the lookout for the perfect product, but this one will definitely do for now!

I've been dealing with adult acne for quite some time now, and i've probably tried every product on the market without any success. I finally decided to try this cleanser when I ran out of my regular product and liked the fact that it dealt with blemishes and wrinkles in one product. I figured it wouldn't work any better than anything else out there but I was wrong! My acne cleared up after about 5 days, and after 3 weeks my skin is still clear. That may not seem like a long time, but compared to before, that is a long time for me. Its relatively inexpensive, washes clean without leaving any residue, and removes my makeup so what more could I ask for?

I was lucky enough to receive a sample for the nourish + moisturize shampoo and conditioner, and with just one wash my hair looked and felt better! I have to use a blowdryer to style my hair every day and the heat has definitely caused some damage, leaving my hair dull and a bit frizzy in the process but after one use, this shampoo and conditioner made a visible improvement. Its much cheaper than typical salon brands and in my opinion, it worked much better. I have curly hair besides, and its hard to find a good moisturizing shampoo/conditioner that doesn't weigh my hair down but this was not a problem with aveeno either. I am definitely heading out soon to buy some! Highly recommended.

I really had high hopes for this mascara after reading reviews on various websites about it, but I wasn't terribly impressed when I tried it out myself. It actually provided more length for me than it did volume, and it separated my lashes to the point that they looked clumpy and spidery rather than full and voluminous. I was able to separate it out with a lash comb and my lashes looked okay, but its not something I want to bother with every day. I will say it lasted throughout the day without flaking and the price is great. It just wasn't quite as I had hoped.
