    Sonia Kashuk Chic Luminosity Glow Powder

    Sets Under Eye Concealer

    As a highlighter, this is too subtle. It has a very matte, soft glow look to it. Because of that I don't find this useful for highlighting the cheekbone or under the brows. However, it sets my under eye concealer beautifully. It goes on so soft. I just press some on over the concealer and it adds a subtle lightening effect under my eyes and sets the concealer all day.

  • BareMinerals Lash Domination Volumizing Mascara

    With a name like Lash Domination, I expected this product to put all other mascaras to shame. I didn't love or hate the brush. It's pretty big and has a spiral design. It applies fine. I credit the brush for the decent definition. The formula is terrible. It didn't lengthen or volumize my lashes. It did flake off and irritate my eyes and what didn't flake off was a pain to remove.

  • Wet n Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Trio

    Wet n Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Trio

    Great, for the most part

    I have these in "Walking on Eggshells" and "Silent Treatment". I love both of these. They are buttery-smooth, pigmented shadows that last all day. I find that they apply best with a primer, but they are okay without. They blend really well. I haven't really worn them wet, but that's just a personal preference. I did have the "I'm Getting Sunburned" trio and it had way more fallout than the other two and was just too heavy and did not blend out well. Because of that, I would stick with the softer colors.

  • Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Talc-Free Mineral Airbrushing Pressed Powder SPF 30

    This has a silky texture. It doesn't break down on my oily face during the day. It sets my foundation beautifully. I haven't used it to set my under eye concealer yet, so I can't comment on how it does under the eyes. I use it on my T-zone and pat it in with my Sonia Kashuk No. 24 and am so pleased with the results.

  • Physicians Formula Organic Wear 100% Natural Origin Jumbo Lash Mascara

    I really love this mascara. The formula is perfect. It darkens my lashes, holds a curl and provides decent volume. It also gives a subtle amount of length. It has never flaked off under my eyes or transferred to the brow bone. Stays put all day long. It isn't clumpy or wet. This formula is very defining. Too me, it is a "your lashes, but better" look. May not be for you if you like dramatic lashes or a false lash effect.

  • L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Original Washable Bold Eye Mascara

    This just didn't do it for me. It was too wet and clumpy. I think the brush would be good on it's own, but the formula was clumped up on the brush, the tube and made my lashes stick together and it always transferred to my brow bone. Forget about applying this to lower lashes.

  • Volumizing Mascara

    Volumizing Mascara

    Lush yet natural looking lashes

    I really like this formula and brush. It's not too wet, not too dry. It really adds a decent amount of volume and doesn't weigh down my lashes. It's pretty good at holding a curl. I've never noticed any flaking. I would say it is subtle at lengthening my lashes. A good mascara for defining your lashes. The only people who wouldn't like this are those who prefer a more dramatic lash.

  • Murad Exfoliating Acne Treatment Gel

    I had hormonal breakout last winter and decided to change my routine. I purchased this product as part of Murad Acne Complex Kit at Sephora. After a few days, my acne was worse, my skin had red, rough dry patches all over my face. It looked as if I were rubbing a cinder block on my face. I ended up going to my dermatologist who advised me that ALL of these products ALL contain a combo of: sulfur, Retinol, Glycolic acid, Salicylic acid, and alcohol. That combo was far too drying and far too irritating. Per her advice, I switched my routine to something much more gentle and saw results almost instantly after discontinuing use of Murad.

  • Revlon Nearly Naked Makeup

    Revlon Nearly Naked Makeup

    Light weight and wearable

    I liked this foundation. I can't claim it as my holy grail, but it is certainly wearable. Pros: I think there is a great selection of shades available. It is unscented. It doesn't feel heavy and or oily. It's pretty light texture and doesn't break up during the day. Good price point. Cons: You can't build the coverage. It certainly won't provide complete coverage for breakouts, scars, or spots. I don't like the packaging. I wish it had a pump. Overall, I prefer this to L'Oreal Lumi Foundation because it is matte and doesn't add any shimmer to my face.

  • Simple Vital Vitamin Night Cream

    Simple's tagline is "kind to skin". This night cream is exactly that! I have normal/combo skin. Occasional breakouts, drier in the winter. I bought this to help moisturize this winter. It is a thick product but it literally sinks into your skin; it is not greasy. I don't use more than a quarter-size dab. I have layered this over a retinol and I haven't noticed it interfering with the effectiveness of the retinol. It keeps the retinol in check from adding additional dryness. The scent is faint, yet fresh. I don't think this night cream offers any benefit other than moisturizing so if you need other properties such as anti-aging or anti-acne, you may need to layer it with another product. Great value for the price.
