I love this product. I have horribly oily skin and this makes it look flawless. I got this in "Translucent", letting my natural skin tone out without the oily shine it normally has. This is very lightweight and does not clog your pores. I can barely tell I'm wearing it. If I miss a spot with this, I just use Palladio's Rice Paper Powdered Blotting Tissues and it fixes it. This blends effortlessly and stays on your face without running until you wash it off. I will continue to buy this, especially at this price. At $5, is amazing for this. It is so worth it. The packaging does not allow for easy travel, but it is weighty and decent quality. I'd rather take the tissues on the go anyway. Fantastic product!

I bought this in "Truth or Dare (3)" and not only did it surprisingly work well with both my light olive skin tone and my stop light red hair, but it's shocking how so little goes a long way. Just light dabs followed by circles made my cheeks look 80s worthy, (but in a good way). Anyone who likes high pigment will enjoy this. As for the blush as a blush, it is a liquid, so you have to be careful with your amount. DO NOT USE A FULL SQUEEZE unless you want your cheeks to be COVERED in hot pink. (Instead, do with the light pats.) It goes on smooth and the color won't fade or rub off until you wash your face. At $25, this was well worth the money and is probably my favorite blush at the moment.

Chanel Rouge Allure Laque Luminous Satin Lip Lacquer
Chanel "Dragon" Rouge Allure Laque - BEST Thing You Could Wear On Your Lips
In my search for the perfect red lipstick, I was searching for something vibrant and opaque. When I tried Chanel's Rouge Allure Laque in "Dragon" I was immediately sold. (I wasn't looking my best that day, but that was not the case as soon as I sampled it.) It looks great on your lips and it is soothing. It dries quickly without drying my lips out. This is more of a liquid lipstick than a gloss. It does not act like a gloss except in how you apply it. The color is crazy vibrant and this lasts for hours without fading or creasing. It's a little pricey at $32, but well worth it. You don't really need a liner for this since the applicator is precise and easy to correct with, but I still recommend it. However, this color is not for the faint of heart. Definitely wear this to leave an impact. I haven't tried any of the other colors, but if you're not into highly pigmented reds, definitely opt for a less intense shade.

Physicians Formula Plump Palette Plumping Lip Color
Physicians Formula Plump Palette Plumping Lip Color - Plump Up the Volume
This palette I found for cheap at a holiday store and I love it. I have pretty thin lips and this is fantastic on them. I got the Wine palette and they're highly pigmented. I know some people had some problems with a tingling sensation, but I don't have that problem with this at all. My lips actually feel very nice and almost refreshed when I use this. I love the colors and the packaging is wonderful. This is one of my favorite things for my lips. Obviously, since some people had problems with it, I wouldn't recommend this to just anyone, but I do encourage people to try it. If you don't have problems with it, you'll likely love it.

I got this in "Beige 300" and at first, I was worried it might've been a bit too dark on my face, but under lighting, it makes my skin look flawless. This is ideal for photography, going outside, or for work. It is very easy to work with and is easily blendable, so it doesn't leave streaks. You get great coverage with this and it doesn't move around on your face too much if you have oily skin or sweat.

The first time I saw this, I was in Sephora with a friend and I had to try it out. (How can you not be curious about a perfume with a name like Alien?) I put some on, smelled my wrist, and the moment I walked out the door, my wrist immediately made it's way back to my face. I didn't want to make a scene in the store, but this stuff is euphoria! This is one of the greatest scents and the perfume is long lasting without being too strong. It's great stuff.

I have this in "Coral Rose" and I LOVE it. It has the perfect amount of stickiness and feels great on my lips. The color is great and shows up well, which is a rarity for me. It plumps up my lips a bit and leaves them feeling very healthy. It's not too thick and I love it because my lips don't feel like they're wearing a sweater. I smile a lot when I wear this, (which I can't say happens a whole lot). It is just a bit pricey but it's worth every penny. Best gloss ever!

Physicians Formula Virtual Face Powder Multi-Reflective Face Powder
Physicians Formula Virtual Face Powder Multi-Reflective Face Powder - Great as a bronzer!
This is great over your foundation and blush and, in my case, makes it look like you're getting some sun. This gives some extra dimension to your face and makes it POP. This is also very shimmery, so expect to have a shinier glow when you use it. I have this in "Beige Pearl" and it lasts a very long time. This also helps powder foundations from moving around on your skin. Great product, especially for the money.

I love this bronzer. I use it over both my foundation and my blush and it makes my skin tone very even and makes me GLOW. I have this in "Healthy Glow Bronzer" and it just makes my skin look impeccable. It doesn't darken my skin, but makes me look, for lack of a better word amazing. This also lasts a very long time, so you get a TON of product for your money. I wouldn't replace this. Ever.

I have used this for years and it's wonderful. I typically use this as a base for the rest of my makeup unless I'm using a liquid foundation first and it's perfect to lighten and brighten your face. I have shade "116 (G)" and it matches my skin tone perfectly. This is pretty finely ground and doesn't clog my pores at all. You also get a ton of product for your money, so this will last you a while. My only complaints would be that 1) if you have oily skin or you sweat a lot, this will not want to stay on your face very well and 2) this smells kinda bad in the package, but once it's on your face, you can't smell it anyway.
