This lipgloss has a different applicator than most. It is spade shaped and sort of flimsy, which I dislike. However, the actual gloss isn't too bad. It definitely does not last 6 hours. Also, it is sticky at first, but seems to dry within a few minutes. I think I would like the gloss better if it had a different applicator.

I use this concealer sometimes when I am going without full makeup. It is a very light concealer, so I would not recommend trying to use it for really dark circles or major breakouts. However, if you have slight circles or redness around the nostrils, this is perfect. I sometimes mix a little of the concealer and highlighter on the back of my hand and pat it under my eyes to brighten and conceal. It is not YSL touche eclat, but the combination works pretty well.

I think that the word lift is a little misleading. However, it feels wonderful on the eyes and does seem to provide a subtle highlighting. I'm not sure that I would buy it again, but I keep finding myself using it for the wonderful feeling and silky texture it leaves behind.

This is not the type of concealer that someone should use for little problems. It is too thick and pigmented for small issues. However, if you have a major problem like a broken blood vessel, a serious pimple, or major undereye circles, this is a miracle. It stays in place really well and provides a great deal of coverage, but it takes a while to blend it into surrounding skin.

This is a fabulous product. Especially now that you don't have to be in Europe to find it. Call me crazy, but I do think it is slightly different from what you get in Europe (the mist seems thicker). However, it is still far better than most hairsprays. It has a flexibility that others lack, yet it still manages to have super hold. All in all, it is something I buy again and again.

I purchased this eye cream because I wanted to try to tighten the skin under my eyes, and I had heard this was a favorite of many. I think that it does an excellent job at hydrating, and makes the skin soft and supple. However, I had to discontinue using it because my eyes were sensitive to some ingredient in it, which inevitably caused my eyes to turn red every time I used it. Had it not been for that issue, I would have continued to use it.

I bought a bottle of this hoping that it would enable me to do less work in the morning with my straightening iron. Unfortunately, I have yet to really notice a difference in the straightness of my hair. That being said, it seems to do a good job as a heat protectant, and smells quite nice also. If you buy it for those two qualities, you will probably be happier than if you think it is going to work miracles on your wavy hair.

I've tried several different brands of mineral makeup, and would rank this toward the bottom of my list. The first major problem with it is the included brush-you are better off using your own. I find that this product looks good on my skin initially, but the paler shades turn an odd orange color if they are left on your skin for more than an hour or two. Perhaps this has something to do with them mixing with the oil in the skin, or oxidization, or both. Additionally, if you have dry skin or fine lines in some areas, it seems like this highlights that fact. All in all, it will do in a pinch, but would never be my first choice.

This little kit is just perfect for keeping in your purse. I would say that it works best for those people with medium complexions due to the color of the concealer. However, even if you aren't medium skin toned, it is a great way to try some of their products. While I wouldn't probably buy this again because I couldn't use the concealer, I did end up buying a full size thing of the high beam, and was able to find out that I didn't like their lip plumper without shelling out for a full size item.

I have used the original photo finish primer for a few years, so I was excited to find one that had SPF 15. Unfortunately, I have not been as impressed with this primer as the original. The texture feels slightly greasy, and it does not seem to last as long. It's not bad, but I'd rather use a different sunscreen with the original.
