The darker colors in this palette are great for achieving the smokey eye look. The green, blue, purple and burgundy are not as colorful as you'd think. They come out dark and smokey, closer to black. The light colors are very shimmery, so you need very little for highlighting. However the shadows are flaky and hard to blend, so make sure to use a primer or shadow intensifier. The face colors are made for someone with fair skin, and won't show up on medium skin tones. The gloss is very sheer and light.

This frag doesn't have a long shelf life. It turns into chemical smell if not stored properly, probably because it relies on top and middle notes. Initially, it smells like flowers with little citrus and fruits, but I can pick out a dozen more fragrances in the similar category that are more heavenly. It's also not that complex, so it gets tiring after a while.

Not enough drug store brands carry matte nude & matte pink shades. The nude and pink colors are even more fantastic when worn together to give that beigy pink color. Matte formulas are usually very drying, but I think they made this one just creamy enough without becoming shiny to help from drying out your lips. There is absolutely no smell either, which is a huge plus. I wish they had the beigy pink shade so that I don't have to keep mixing the two.

This frag is pleasant and soft, but it smells just like a baby oil or baby powder. I realized that buying J&J baby oil would've been sooooo much cheaper, and I had wasted money on this impulse buy. I got tired of it after a week of daily wear because it's a one note wonder. Save your money and buy something more intricate and complex that you'll enjoy for months.

These sheets are soft and on the larger size, but not as wet as some of the other brands. It didn't take off all of my makeup. I don't recommend this if you wear a lot of make up. I needed to wash my face with cleanser afterwards to get all of the residues off. For the price, L'oreal's skin genesis one is better.

You can get a drugstore brand that is better than this. It's like spritz, but this sprays horribly and clumps the hair. You can't style the hair or work with this, and it can't be used as a finishing spray either. It flaked after a while too. Not worth the money.

This hairspray has very high hold that lasts all day. It has a nice wide button, and comes out very forceful, but in a wide fine mist, so it's luxurious. If you're a hairspray gal, you will love this. You'll be better off in rain & wind with this than most of the other hairsprays out there.

This is my go-to product. It has great slip, shine, de-frizzing and slight styling capabilities. I can put this on wet hair or dry, and a very very little goes a long way. It's almost all purpose because it does little bit of everything, great when you're in a rush or in a pinch. It spreads so fast in your hands, glides through hair beautifully.

These cloths are very soft (will never scratch you even around eye area), very wet, and large size sheets. It feels slightly oily, but it takes off even the heaviest makeup application very well. I only needed to splash water afterwards, my skin is not oily afterwards, and no need for cleansing with another cleanser afterwards like I have to with other wipes. Great product for the price.

These have the just right wetness- not too wet, not too dry. The cloths are a little on the small side if you wear lots of makeup. If it was plushier, then maybe the size will do, but for the price, L'Oreal's skin Genesis one is better. You will need to wash your face after using this still to remove residual makeup. The container is absolutely unnecessary, they should get rid of it to be more "green". Fragrance is minimal, not too bad.
