This line of glosses has very flattering shades. I have the nude luster and it is my absolute favorite. The gloss goes on like a lacquer, it isnt too thick, and the color pay off is nice. I find that a lot of other glosses dont look the same in the bottle as they do on because they dont impart enough pigment. This doesnt do that. This product is comparable to some of the more expensive department store brands at a fraction of the cost. Plus you can ususally get buy one get one deals at your local CVS pharmacy in conjunction with Sunday paper coupons. So it is a great bargain.

I bought this lip gloss recently in the Amber shade. It is a very flattering, soft and wearable peach tone. The lip gloss itself is very nourishing to the lips. It has a great vanilla scent, yet it feels as though you have rubbed your lips with tingly peppermint. I LOVE that it makes my lips tingle after application. Some people don't like the tingling, but I do. It is a long lasting lip gloss also that can be worn alone or layered over your favorite lipstick. I will definitely try some other shades.

This product is highly over rated. It was very drying, did not cover a thing. It is also very messy. Unless you have perfect skin and just want a mattifying effect to the complexion I do not recommend this at all. Not for dry skin, only attempt if you are oily! I will be going back to Pur Minerals.

I have always had a hard time picking makeup colors to flatter my dark olive complexion. Foundation colors always appeared too orange once the shades reached the colors meant for my skin tone. Enter Pur Minerals. The colors are spot on and very forgiving. I can wear the medium dark in the summer and the Tan color in the winter time. I have a dry complexion particularly around the cheeks, and I tend to be a little bit oilier in the T-Zone. I love the coverage that this foundation gives, and the fact that its a 4 in one product and I dont need a finishing powder etc was a great selling point. I had tried BareMinerals previously and found it very drying, plus it didnt cover a darn thing!!!! I will definitely be purchasing this foundation again because it has a beautiful finish. It isnt too glittery, but it gives you a nice soft focused glow to the complexion. it is easy to apply, there is little mess. Other mineral makeups make the bathroom a mess and I HATED THAT!. This is compact and portable. I really liked the makeup brush that came in the starter kit too.

This fragrance is perfect for everyday wear. It is best described as light, fresh, and feminine. I have never come across anyone that would describe the scent as offensive. The fragrance reminds me of a gardenia bush in full bloom. Very soft and delicate. I get a lot of compliments with this perfume, and everyone keeps telling me how good I smell. It is a very clean fragrance and It makes me feel pretty when I am wearing it.

I tried this because I was impressed with the ingredients list which is readily available on the AVON website. The glycolic acid is listed high up on the list. I didn't even experience a slight tingle with this product, nor did I see any visible results. It did feel hydrating though. I much prefer my Neutrogena healthy skin anti wrinkle cream. I guess I will have to go on another search for good serum.

L'Oreal Paris HiP Studio Secrets Professional Concentrated Shadow Duos
colors intense only on fairer complexions
I was excited to try this product. The packaging and the colors are attractive and always grab my attention at the local CVS. When I finally bought one, I rushed home to test it out. Big disappointment!!! The purple barely showed up on my eyelids!!!! I am dark olive complexion, so I expected the colors to show up but they did not!!. The colors are no more intense than the regular shadows sold by Loreal.

I am a huge Mariah fan, and so I had high hopes for this one. When I tried it, it smelled overwhelmingly ssweet, but not in a good way. It is a strong burnt marshhmallow smelling fragrance.

the color selection is fabulous, the overall formulation of the product was impressive. My only gripe; it lacked the shine i was expecting. Apart from that i would definitely recommend this to anyone.

i like this because it is a pretty, long lasting, and affordable fragrance. It gets me a lot of compliments, plus Avon usually runs those deals where you can get an entire gift set of fragrances for under $20. It is unbeatable.
