The big benefit for using this versus a normal makeup primer on the eyelids is that it gives you a truer color for your shadow. The formula does a great job of helping your shadow stick without migrating or creasing, and doesn't bother the eyes.

I've used a lot of different self-tanners over the years because I don't want all the risks that go along with tanning, but am so pale that I stand out like a sore thumb in summer otherwise. This is one of the few tanners available at the drugstore that does not turn me an odd color. Plus, since the product is tinted, you can see exactly where you are applying it, so there are no surprises as the color starts to develop. It does have a chemical smell to it once it starts developing, but I have yet to try one that does not. If this bothers you, there are several spray on products on the market that are meant to neutralize this smell.

What I like about this product is that I have been able to use this as a spot treatment it in conjunction with my current skin care routine without my skin turning red or peeling. Other products I have tried to use(benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid based) were overkill since the facewash and toner I use already have AHA/BHA in them. However, the sulfur this contains doesn't seem to upset my skin in the same way. The only problem with trying to use it overnight as a spot treatment is that by morning it has rubbed off on your pillow.

This product may be a bit pricey for the tiny tube you get, but it works quite well. I have used several other products, but this one has several benefits over the others. First, it works with less burning than some others. Additionally, it doesn't cause my lips to turn bright pink. It is very thick and sort of sticky, but the plumpness it adds lasts for several hours.

This product really does plump your lips, but it burns my lips too much to use it very often. The other problem that I have found that can occur is that it can make your lips very very pink. I prefer the original, or lip venom just because it burns less and doesn't turn my lips as pink. However, if you do want "extreme" plumping, this is probably the one to choose.

This product is not meant to be a foundation, or a concealer, but more of a skin tone evener. It feels silky, and goes on easily, but I am not certain why someone would choose it over a tinted moisturizer.

I think that this concealer is fairly decent. However, I think that there are a lot of other concealers priced well below this that do as well or better. There is no real "wow" factor about it.

This mascara goes on really nicely. It makes lashes look really nice, but it does not wear very well. If it is hot, humid, or you are going to be exceptionally active, this is not the mascara for you. Otherwise, it is a pretty good option.

I first bought this in London when my suitcase went MIA at Heathrow. It covers surprisingly well. The texture and cool feel take some getting used to, but it is something that I still use on occasion. It is a foundation that is best applied with either a brust or applicator, so that it can be disbursed before it dries.

I have used this foundation occasionally when I need more coverage than a liquid can provide. It is especially useful if you are having photography done. However, I would recommend a primer with it unless you have dry skin, because the skin can become oily. It goes on very smoothly and can be blended to almost any coverage level. Again, don't buy this hoping for light coverage.
