Laura Geller Balance - N - Brighten

This is great for people who don't like foundation.

This evens skin really nicely without the feeling of a foundation. It doesn't have as much coverage as I prefer, but it's worked nicely for people I know who do not like wearing makeup. Way better than bare minerals.

Revlon ColorStay Makeup for Normal/Dry Skin

I don't understand why people like this

I don't understand why people like this. I got the right color and it made me look like a corpse. It also oxidized. It's a horrible, overrated foundation. It did last forever, like a mask on my face. This is not attractive to me. I tossed it after three uses.

M.A.C. Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation

I don't get the hype

I think this works well as a touch up powder. I wasn't impressed with the results wet or dry as my only foundation. But it really makes a foundation last and doesn't make my skin act weird. Overall I think it is a good powder. I think the foundation in the title is misleading.

Benefit Maybe Baby Eau de Toilette

Good, safe perfume

It's a completely neutral, unoffensive scent. Nothing spectacular, nothing boring. It smells exactly, and I mean EXACTLY like Gwen Stefani LAMB perfume. I took it back and bought the LAMB instead. It is a younger floral great for daytime.

Jimmy Choo Eau de Parfum

Yuck

The first time I smelled this I loved it. I think the first part of the scent is really good, but then it goes downhill into gross. It's like an ugly vanilla, with added nausea to me. I wish it continued to smell how it smells when you first spray it.

Philosophy Inner Grace Perfumed Body Spritz

Hesitant but gorgeous

I really like this because it actually smells like grace. Maybe like a prayer? But I rarely wear it because it's not sexy, flirty, or fresh smelling. It can be quite overpowering, but I enjoy wearing it at home. I prefer more as a shower gel than a perfume.

Origins Peace of Mind On-the-spot Relief

It made my face break out

I used to put this on all the time at work, because I found the scent soothing. It kind of sounds like an Aveda salon. Then I noticed a small acne starting to develop at my temples, stopped using this and it went away immediately. That made me sad because I did enjoy it.

Chanel Chance Eau de Toilette Spray

Nice enough

It's a very pretty scent, very feminine, but it has some powdery undertones which I don't particularly care for over scents that don't. The first time I smelled this I bought a bottle but it's rarely used.

Cartier 'Baiser Vole' Eau de Parfum

Lovely

Oh I really like this one! It's very challenging to describe a scent, but it is almost slightly masculine and fresh smelling. I also love the packaging, it looks like an old school lighter. I'm not sure if I would buy another bottle if I ran out as I'm kind of tired of it by now, but I knew when I smelled a sample it was a "me" type scent (I like fresh or fruity smells) and ran out and bought it. It doesn't reek of alcohol, which some perfumes do and it makes me crazy and it lasts a bit. It's really not an overpowering scent, it's like skin plus a little better. I would recommend it.

Milani Baked Blush

Wow

I absolutely flipped finding this blush. I had heard Milani blushes were good. I didn't expect them to be better than any other blush I own pigment wise. I actually have to tone this blush back. I tried all their available colors and the dolce pink looks best on me. It does have some shimmer, so if you like that, great, if you want matte, this isn't for you. I wish they would come out with more shades in their matte line as they really don't have many color choices (two).
