I have always been a fan and so loyal to MAC, there eye-shadows are incredible and the pigment stays true and vibrant all day. There are many types of ranges from like satin, frost, frost pearl, veluxe. I bought a matte veluxe to add to my latest range a few days ago. I was very disappointed, It didn't go on my eye easily and had to really press on for the colour to stay on the applicator and my eye. This has never happened to me with a Mac eye-shadow, perhaps I need to be patient and use the brushes instead of my usual sponge applicator. Unfortunately with me, the brushes take awhile and I don't have that few extra minutes to spare as I'm usually late already and have to run out of the door before I miss my train. Still I cannot diss my MAC, I would literally die without their eye colours

I love OPI you get a heaps in a bottle. The colour ranges are amazing. The normal retail price for OPI here are $20 a bottle but I found a local beautician that sells it for $15. The best quality nail polish I have tried. The only thing I don't like is the brush holder, it's a bit thick and awkward to use. Otherwise great polish and should last you a week with flawless nails.

Before I discovered the new Maybelline Fiber lash this one was my favorite mascara to grab when I had no time to go to specialty stores. I like how it holds the curls in place. It doesn't run or smudge and last all day, it is quite hard to remove at the end of the day. The only problem with this mascara is that it doesn't do much in terms of adding thickness and length, but it does hold the curl well

I have four of these in sparkly colours. I love how intense they go on and how fast they dry. It stayed on me all day until I removed it with waterproof eye make up remover. It's a great look if you are looking for a fun flirty look. I rarely wear it to work but I do wear it out to dinner, I get compliments all the time, People want to know how I can get glitter to set so nicely on my eyes. Love it I want the whole range, but I cannot give it a perfect score as I don't like the brush it comes with, it's hard to control and you need to have a steady hand and really , focus otherwise things get messy

My sister purchased this for my birthday and she bought one for herself as well. We were both excited to experiment with this, the price $40 is cheap compared to other eyelash stimulators that can go up to $150 per tube. The tube comes with a hard brush wand that is covered in white liquid, it requires us to comb through our lashes before we sleep. It irritates the eye if the liquid gets into it and it can sting quite bad. I like how the liquid is white so you can tell which lashes you have covered, however I hated that in the morning my lashes would feel stiff and I had to wash it out before applying mascara. I can honestly say that it did extend my lashes, but it didn't do anything extraordinary, but it was enough for people to notice. I gave up applying in the end and didn't even use all the contents in the tube, I was over it after a couple of weeks. After usuage my lashes became short again and went a bit sparse, but that could be due to the tugging of the eyelash curler and waterproof mascaras.

Every morning before I go to work my daily ritual is to colour the bottom eye rims or tear ducts I'm not actually sure what they are really called. Anyway I need an intense black eyeliner that can do this as my eyes always produces too much water. This Chanel eyeliner glides like a dream, I only need to run it once across the rims and the colour comes on without any fuss. I love this eyeliner and would not be able to live with out it. I think this is around 40 dollars where I am but it's definitely worth the price, It lasts me more than a year. The only issue I have with is I always have to check it and fix it through the day, but that's just my eyes. I have not tried other colours except for the black, I hope once I do they are just as great.

I use this in the morning under my daily moisturiser. I have oily skin especially in hot weather I look like I have been running a marathon. It makes a great makeup base, it works really well with my foundation. It makes my skin looks smoother and hides the pores. I am not sure if it does actually minimises them but it definitely does give the appearance it does. It keeps my make up fresh and keeps me matte all day. I can remember how much I purchased this for I think it was around 80 dollars. Which works out pretty good cause I only need to use a few drops each morning.

Wearing this makes my eyelashes looks so long that it's fake, that's the problem it doesn't look natural. It does look good sideways as like I stated it makes it look so long it looks like I am wearing extensions. I can wear this if I am wearing dark eyeshadow but to wear it natural it doesn't look good. It makes my eyelashes stick together causing my lashes to look clumpy and sparse but the good thing is for a fiber lash it's not heavy so it does hold some curve. The length of wear is good, it stays in place. It's quite expensive around 20 dollars, for a mascara that I can pick up at my supermarket. Overall I would probably buy it again if I was faced with picking a mascara from the Maybelline range

Ok so I dropped in to my Mac counter, I was so excited to buy this as I know Mac makes fantastic eye-shadows and eyeliners. When the lady asked me for 25 dollars I was ecstatic. The price was to die for but when I used it I felt ripped-off. My eye lids are very oily and this made it worst. It did not hold my eyeshadow, instead it caked it faster. I only tried using it twice and decided enough of this, I didn't want to throw the tub away so I kept it as a concealer... ha I had to use it for something

I really love this mascara, It gives me beautiful natural looking long lashes, I was looking at my holiday pics while I was wearing this and my lashes looked very striking. The unique brushes works very well. This mascara last all day and does not not smudge, however It does come with it's flaws. The cost of the mascara is around 50 dollars (Aud) which is extremely expensive for a mascara, but it's got a Chanel stamp on it which explains it. As much as I want to keep using this mascara the cost weighs out more than it's benefits. I find this mascara very difficult to remove and for such a huge price the mascara tube does not last long at all, the contents goes clumpy and thick quickly (month)
