This mascara is exactly what you would think. It's incredible. It gives the most lengthened, thick, separated lashes that you could ever ask for. It works beautifully on its own or paired with another mascara. My absolute favorite combination is the Covergirl Lash blast underneath Benefit's They're Real. It is a match made in heaven!

It seems to me like no one has good things to say about this product, but I beg to differ. This foundation has beautiful light, yet buildable coverage. It is a natural, dewey coverage, which is to be expected from a luminous foundation. I use this product over my Magic Lumi concealer. I blend out using a damp blending sponge and I get a long lasting, beautifully natural application. I do not understand how anyone has a negative word to say about this foundation.

Every Christmas, Tarte comes out with sample sets of their award winning Amazonian Clay Blushes. Buy these sets over buying the full size because theres NO POSSIBLE WAY to use a full sized one. They are SO pigmented that you'll be hard pressed to scratch the surface. They blend out pretty nicely if you use a light hand and they last for as long as the packaging might suggest. They have a beautiful selection of colors, some that will work for every skin tone.

I love the NYX butter glosses in dark and red shades. They have optimum pigmentation and unbelievable staying power. However, I gave this product a 9 overall because the light colors are difficult to work with on occasion. I've tried quite a few shades and it seems to me that the lightest, most delicate shades come out streaky and very difficult to build. Stick to shades like Devils Food Cake to get your moneys worth.

EVERYONE. STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND GO BUY MAC'S POWDER BLUSH IN BLUNT. This product is the best contour for fair skin that I have ever found. It will never leave you muddy or streaky. Something in this blush must be magic because it blends into your skin like nothing. The contour you get from this powder is unbeatable and beautifully natural. Let those cheekbones out!!

I'll preface this for everyone. I've never used an airbrush system before. Luckily I have a good friend that is a freelancer and had used hers on me previously. Second thing I should preface; I LOVE DEWY NATURAL FINISH FOUNDATION. If you do not love this type of finish you would want to set with a translucent powder right at the end. I found a few things about this system, ultimately, that I'd like to share. This system is SO easy to use and delivers the most airy light finish I could ever imagine. I think it will be hard to ever go back to heavy, sticky, liquid foundation after using this system. And if the simplicity and user friendliness isn't enough to convince you to purchase this makeup wonder, the speed of application should. I've used this machine one time and it took me mere minutes to achieve and absolutely flawless finish. I used the full system, foundation, blush, bronzer, and highlighter to contour and brighten my face. This is easily the quickest way to achieve a perfectly sculpted face. LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Is this product smoothing? Yes. Does this product cleanse and tingle? Yes. Is this product worth the hype? Absolutely not. I've tried tons and tons of face masks and if you want the same effect as this overpriced, overhyped product, all you need is a good exfoliator and some $3 Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask. This IS a good product, but in my opinion, it's not worth the hype and definitely not worth the $69 price tag.

This is a dupe alert for anyone that LOVES Nars Sheer Glow. This is almost the exact same foundation. The consistency, very watery, is very similar, as is the coverage. The only drawback to the Neutrogena foundation, is that they have a much abbreviated shade selection. The formula pats into the skin beautifully over a light primer with a beauty blender or at other damp sponge. I'm overjoyed to have found this product!

This product has been repackaged since they first released the original 70's floral print. It now comes in a black and silver geometric tube with purple print. The formula of this product is fine, if used with a different brush. The brush that comes in the tube is a spiked, plastic, large wand. The problem here is, the spikes are too deep and carry FAR too much product. Even if you wipe and wipe away the excess, you end up with clumpy, heavy lashes. If you're the type of girl that's looking for chunky, thick lashes, this product may be just the thing you need in your regime. However, if you're at all like me and like separated, defined lashes that looks naturally wispy, this is NOT the mascara for you.

This product goes along with the 24/7 Glide on Liner in Perversion. The Urban Decay claim is that it is the blackest black liner out there. Upon seeing the Urban Decay Perversion Mascara my first thought was, this should be the blackest mascara I'll ever use. Packaging/Applicator: I've used several of the other UD mascaras and this applicator and packaging is by far my favorite. The sleek gunmetal tube isn't goddy, much the opposite of their other packaging. The brush is fibrous and large, very plushy. The brush is kind of like the brush found in the L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black, but the product inside is much different. Application/Formula: The formula itself is different than the mascaras that I would normally go for. Mascara lovers are very specific as to which kind of formula they prefer. I myself, much prefer a dryer formula. This is a fairly wet formula, not the wettest mascara I've ever used, but I would say it's much wetter than the Voluminous mascara I mentioned earlier. Pigmentation/Overall Thoughts: The pigmentation of the formula is OUT OF THIS WORLD! I can definitely get over the semi-wet formula because the color is, as advertised, the BLACKEST OF THE BLACKS! I was really hoping that UD would deliver a usable mascara, and this one definitely is. The best part of this mascara, besides the incredible pigmentation, is the way it lengthens and curls you lashes. I used one coat and had beautifully lengthened an curled lashes. I didn't even use a lash curler prior to using it! You have to be careful, though, because if you build more layers you can end up with clumpy spider lashed. My preferred method is to pull one coat though the entirety of my lashes, then build one more layer at the base of my lashes to add volume and thickness, but I do not pull that second coat through the tips of my lashes.
