This concealer is a rare gem in the drugstore! I have dark circles that are very hard to cover up, but this concealer does the trick. One application brightens my undereye area without being thick or cakey. As a bonus, the lightest shade is actually light enough for my super-fair skin! I plan on repurchasing.

This was a great addition to the explosion of tinted lip balms that occurred a few years ago in the drugstore. These really do feel light and comfortable on the lips and the coloration is sheer-to-medium. It's a nice lipstick for people who like glosses but want something in a stick form. Unfortunately these are being DISCONTINUED! Snatch any up that you find!

These lipsticks do live up to their name, they're creamy and matte. There is a nice selection of colors and they're widely available at the drugstore. They are not especially long-lasting but they make no claims of being so, so it's forgivable. They are very creamy and do not dry down like many matte lipsticks. They are also very strongly scented like the rest of the Maybelline lipsticks, which I don't like that much. For the price, though, I can get over it.

This is my current favorite drugstore eyeliner. It goes on very smoothly without any tugging. I don't really use it for its waterproof ability so I can't comment on that, but it stays on all day for me.

This is my holy grail mascara. It give me full, long and wispy lashes. I can layer coats of this mascara on my lashes without any clumps. No other mascara I've tried has worked so well at separating and fanning out my lashes.

The lightest shade matched my skintone fairly well. That being said, the formula is pretty bad. It feels oily-ish and thick but still manages to only give a small amount of coverage. If you rub it in too much, the foundation begins to ball up and rub off your skin. After only a few hours wear this stuff pretty much disappears. I would only recommend this to people with dry skin who only need a little bit of coverage.

Pros: -Solid medium coverage -Feels very lightweight on the skin, is dry as opposed to staying greasy like some foundations do -Fills in my large pores without needing a primer -Stays matte throughout most of the day -Stays on for a long time, doesn't break down on the skin Cons: -I am very fair, and the lightest shade in the range is still slightly too dark and pink-ish on me Overall this is a wonderful foundation for people who like solid coverage but want a foundation that feels lightweight and isn't greasy. I really wish they would adjust the color selection, though.

After seeing the commercials for this mascara I was expecting the brush just to be a gimmick (like most mascaras). I decided to try it though because I like most of L'oreal's Voluminous mascaras. To my surprise the brush wasn't a gimmick at all, and really worked. This mascara really lengthens, curls and defines my lashes without being clumpy. I first apply a coat using the fan-side of the brush to get the outer half of my lashes. Then I add a coat using the regular side of the brush to curl and volumize the middle of my lashes. My lashes really do look long and wispy when I do this. I haven't noticed a problem with flaking with moderate wear, and it removes easily using my regular make-up remover. Overall this is currently my favorite drugstore mascara, and I plan on repurchasing.

This stuff smells nice and it has a nice texture...BUT (and it's a big but) it turns ORANGE on your skin. Like, noticeably orange. It does NOT 'auto-adjust' to your skintone, as that sort of technology doesn't actually exist. Instead, it just turns the same orange color on everyone. Garnier either needs to remove the pigment in this product or reformulate with multiple color options and call it a tinted moisturizer (which is what it is, just an orange one). Don't buy this unless you want to look like an Oompa Loompa.

This is my favorite primer. It has a thick, sticky texture that I like. Often it feels like thinner primers just slide around and get oily throughout the day, but this one has more staying power. Additionally, it helps to fill in my large pores. Like others have said, the packaging could be improved. It can be difficult to get out of the small pot and would work much better as a pump.
