I love this lipstick! I have it in "Marcia Marcia Marcia" which is a medium shade of pink with noticeable champagne colored specks. The best way to describe this shade is sexy. It looks great with a nice bronzer and a shiny cheek-bone highlighter. Its a great shade for the Spring and Summer. Also, as always, Too Faced packaging makes any girl feel glamorous! Two Thumbs Up! But...I would recommend wearing some sheer lip-plumping gloss over this if you are going out.

I find that this product works best when you don't necessarily apply it over makeup, but blend it into your foundation. The problem with applying it over your foundation is that you mess up the application of your concealer, which is annoying. Also, if you apply your concealer over it the colors don't look right. I would probably just stick with buying a powder bronzer. But, if you have great skin, this is a good product to wear alone for a natural look.

I love this moisturizer. I bought it about a week ago and I have already noticed an improvement in my skin's appearance and texture. It is lightweight but deeply moisturizing. I've noticed a decrease in visible sun spots. For $20, I was hesitant to purchase this from my drug store at first, but its worth the price! I've been using the wash in the morning and I feel radiant all day! You can use it under makeup, and it helps your foundation stay well-put. It also has an SPF 20, so its super protective for any weather!

We can all get over the fact that there are almost no lip glosses that actually stay on for 8 hours, but this is a nice gloss anyway. It is very nourishing/moisturizing, unlike a lot of glassy/sticky ones that are out now. It isn't a very large tube, but the applicator is long enough. I have the gloss in a lighter pink and it has the appropriate amount of color and shine. This is good for day-wear because it does last for a while, even if you drink a soda or talk.

I put this on after I use a toner and clarifying lotion and it makes my foundation stay on all day. You can also use it alone - just put it on after your normal lotion and dust some powder over your T-zone for a natural, pinkish glow that will last all day! It makes your skin soft, and even though it is silicon-based, it doesn't cause breakouts! The only bad thing is how little comes in each tube- for ten dollars, I would expect a bit more.

This is great to wear under makeup and under lotion. I've found that I can layer it over foundation and it helps make it stay on all day without ruining the application. Its packaging is great, also- makes you feel like a diva!

I live in MI and can get really dry skin during the winter. The combination of the heat in my house and the cold outside freaks my skin out and started to cause breakouts. I didn't think that a moisturizer with fatty acids would help my breakouts, but it did- dryness can cause breakouts. This keeps your skin super soft all night and, as with most Lumene products, makes you feel luxurious. The packaging is pretty, too. Another bonus about this product is that it is sold at all CVSs- and they always have the best deals! I'd def recommend this.

I find that American Beauty is only worth buying when they have one of those 4 things for the price of 1 sales. This foundation is of drug-store quality and should not be department store priced. It is a little greasy and doesn't last that long- in fact, it shows if I shed a tear. Also, I haven't had luck with the shades, which are generally too dull or too bronzer-heavy.

This is another one of the new Revlon products that seems pretty cool but just doesn't pan out in the application process. First of all, the name of the product is misleading in that the topping doesn't taste like sugar- it in fact doesn't have any taste. The models look good with this on, but I haven't been able to achieve the look I have seen in magazines. I tried putting this over lipstick and it doesn't stick for very long. When I apply it to lip gloss, the texture feels disgusting and I have a strong urge to wipe it off. Also, it looks pretty clumpy. The applicator gets sticky and gross every time I use it and its hard to pour the sparkles out, which means that there is no alternative other than using the applicator. This product requires too much work and fussing around with for the price. I'd stick with lip gloss that already has sparkles in it.

This is a nice, creamy lipstick. It looks almost black before you buy it, but that is because they cover the stick in black translucent sparkle powder. The color is a rich berry that looks very nice to go out in to a club or even a professional event- it is glamorous, sophisticated, and sexy.
