I have very pale, delicate skin so when I get a blemish, everyone knows it. Luckily, a friend of mine told me about this concealer and seriously the name does not lie. It is truly AMAZING. Long lasting, full coverage, easily blendable and isn't too dark on my porcelain skin! It you get the occasional zit, invest in this. Trust me! It also works wonders for dark circles under your eyes.

I used this product twice and both times I hated it and threw it away. The brush is MASSIVE and very hard to wield around my corner lashes. When putting it on it was smooth, but it flaked almost as soon as it was dry and smudged all around my eyes. Not a fan! Don't buy into the hype!

I received this product from Buzz Agents. I got this in the "Black Quartz" shade for brown eyes and I was pleasantly surprised by the black mascara you put on first. It was smooth, coated each lash and did a good job of separating the lashes. The "illuminator" part (aka the color end) was less mascara and mostly sparkle. The consistency reminded me of those liquid glitter liners you can get at Sephora. The color was very pretty but almost unrecognizable once I put it on. This part of the mascara ended up clumping my lashes a little at the ends and from far away my lashes just looked a little clumpy. Up close and in sunlight you could definitely see the sparkle, but again it was very very subtle. I'm not really a fan of putting glitter on my eyelashes as I think that's a little bit "tacky" in my opinion and if you were hitting up club and wanted to go all out, the effect was too weak and you'd be better off with something more notoriously "clubby" (if that makes any sense). Overall, this mascara is just okay. I think there are better mascaras out there that do a much better job at "illuminating" your eye color, but this if you're a beauty junkie like me, it's worth a try!

L'Oreal Paris Studio Secrets Professional The One Sweep Eye Shadow
Great Colors, Long Lasting, Terrible Application
I received a full-size sample of this through Buzz Agents. I got it for brown eyes (so purple shades) and I was initially very attracted to the colors of the eyeshadow. Upon reading the directions and using their applicator, I failed miserable at getting it to work. The colors blended way too much and the eye shadow got everywhere. I decided to skip their applicator and try again using my own makeup brushes and I have to say I really liked the colors. Like most drugstore brand makeup, the intensity of the shadow wasn't as strong as I'm used to (being an avid Sephora buyer) but I have to say the shades were subtle but very flattering. The colors definitely not dark enough to be considered good for a night out on the town, but I wore it to work, skipped the heavy black eyeliner like I normally do and got many compliments. I was VERY HAPPY to see that after a 10 hour work day the colors neither faded, smudged or even formed a crease. This may be my new work day look!

This stuff smells good and does a pretty decent job of moisturizing without being greasy or sticky but the overall firming effect is minimal at best. I have a pretty athletic body but thanks to Mother Nature, some inherited cellulite on the back of my legs. I used the entire bottle, religiously and yet saw no changes whatsoever.

I got this in the nude color and I love it! It lasts forever and it very creamy. It can cake a little on your lips in the cracks so my advice is to apply is this: 1. Apply this first then a tinted balm in a different, darker color on top 2. Apply non-tinted lip balm first to smooth then this on top

I got this in the Pink Sugar color and while I love the shade of pink, it too light on my lips. You can't really see anything except for the damn sparkles. Also, the lipstick itself isn't very smooth. All the sparkles in the mix make it a little rough on your lips after a couple of uses.

I have this in the lightest shade (#1 I think) and I use it every day on my cheek bones and right above and below my eye brows to highlight my boniest (or strongest) features. Make sure you blend well otherwise you'll be able to see where the highlighting begins and ends. TIP: Occasionally I'll mix a little of this in with my tinted moisturizer for an all-over glow.

I love this product. I always buy it in the winter and end up using the whole thing by spring. I use it on my face in the winter and my freshly shaven legs all year round. Nothing moisturizes like this product! If you like lotions that smell good don't get this. It has no scent. But if you like truly moisturizing, non greasy cream then you seriously can't go wrong with this. TIP: I have super sensitive skin, so for ladies (or gentlemen) who also have sensi skin like me, definitely get this!

This was my first ever all natural, SLS-free shampoo I've ever used. I have long, limp hair and for some time it had been falling out. I have very sensitive skin so my dermatologist recommended I switch to an SLS-free shampoo. I started using this and almost immediately my hair stopped falling out and even though it might have all been in my head, it seemed like it was growing a lot faster or at least breaking less. Let me break it down for you: SMELL: Very pleasant Kiwi scent. Doesn't last very long though, but at least it's nice in the shower! LATHER: B/C it doesn't have SLS, you'll need more to really get a good lather going. But once you realize that you don't really need that much of a lather to begin with to really get a good clean wash, then you'll use less. VOLUME: The first time I used it my hair was SUPER volumized. I loved it. But as with most shampoos, after a while the effect kind of wore off. It certainly gave my hair volume, but not like regular shampoos like Big Sexy Hair or Vavoom. Either way, it was a great amount of volume coming from an all natural product. PRICE: Decent price, but as with most organic products, it was a little higher price point than drug store shampoos. OVERALL: Overall, this is a great shampoo. I'm curious to try out other SLS free shampoos, but hey if it cleans my hair and protects the environment then I say it was a job well done.
